Bug -Ka-50 - Insists in following a waypoint that doesn't exist or isn't active

[NightMan]

Today I started a mission on a MP server and couldn't proceed in autopilot Route because the choppers insisted in following a waypoint that didn't exist.

I had no waypoints selected.

Also, the course in the HUD didn't match the HSI.

 

Here's the link to the track: https://we.tl/t-tyCVJk5Nz3

 

I went back to the same server and the same mission and I have to give up.

The navigation system in the Ka-50 is ABSOLUTELY unreliable.

Whatever I try with the autopilot it just puts the chopper flying in a tight circle.

Nothing works as expected or at least as it used to.

The graphics are GHASTLY.

My usual feel about DCS is that I am being ripped off, but I never felt such a RIP OFF feeling like with this update.

In the mission editor:

- The mode of turning to the target - does not work.
- The mode of pointing with a helmet-mounted device and turning to the target - does not work.
- In the hovering mode, the Ka-50 turns chaotically in a horizontal plane. There is a chaotic change in the angle of attack and speed in the positive and negative direction.
- The autopilot modes "following the waypoint" and "following the reference point" do not work. The Ka-50 turns randomly in the horizontal plane.

With all these problems, trimming in all control modes works fine.

And the Ka-50 got the "shakes". Now, the blades stall all the time and the helicopter shakes almost uncontrollably with extreme ease.

I doubt this is as it is in Real Life.

We have several Ka-27s, mostly used in firefighting, and I don't remember seeing them shake this much.

I know it's not the same machine, but they share the same kind of rotor.

I confirm. Positive pitch 15-20 degrees up, speed 120 km/h. Strong shaking.
