iwalwila Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Hello fellow DCS World players, For some reasons, I am trying to find a way to make the helicopter flight model in the game easier for some kids to learn with. Specifically, I would like to reduce the movements around the yaw axis so that the helicopter is more stable at low speeds for exemple . I have a few ideas for how this might be achieved and I was hoping to get some feedback on their feasibility: 1. Using a script to modify the behaviour of the aircraft in real time (it would act like a kind of auto-pilot, modifying the axis if they go under a certain value). I know how to export the different flight data thanks to the Export.lua file and I was wondering if we could use this data to modify the behavior of the aircraft. 2. Editing the .lua files (like the fm or the general configuration of the game etc). Also, is it possible to set a minimun altitude wich the helicopter cannot go below ? If anyone has experience with moding or scripting in DCS World, or if you have any other suggestions for my project, I would greatly appreciate any help or guidance you could provide. I understand that it might not be possible to make significant changes to the flight model, but I would still be grateful for any insights or advice you might have. Thank you in advance for your time and help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick50 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Sounds like a great way to introduce kids, spouses and visitors to the basics of helicopter flight! Give 'em an easy entry, and get them Hooked On Helicopters (TM) !! Sorry, no idea how to contribute or help, but I support it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye60 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Not a helicopter per say, But I could make one in about two hours. Make it spawn above ground. Select indestructible in the options. Try this one for now! "Yeah, and though I work in the valley of Death, I will fear no Evil. For where there is one, there is always three. I preparest my aircraft to receive the Iron that will be delivered in the presence of my enemies. Thy ALCM and JDAM they comfort me. Power was given unto the aircrew to make peace upon the world by way of the sword. And when the call went out, Behold the "Sword of Stealth". And his name was Death. And Hell followed him. For the day of wrath has come and no mercy shall be given." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
