Thoughts on new FM.

[Harley Davidson]

Just wanted to give some feedback on the new FM. Its a lot better but, being a rotary wing, from the ground to 50ft is a little twitchy. Please look into smoothing the FM as it shouldn't be that twitchy in ground effect. The FM as you get above 50ft and transition from ground effect to flight is great!

 

Also, being a rotary wing we should be able to auto-rotate with engine failure and land?  Just wonder if something controllable could be implemented?

 

I am also a real world pilot with experience with Bell 206 and Robinson R-22 and R-44

I've reduced the temperature in a mission in order to get into a hover. From 20º to 13º
20º is regarded as part of "NTP"  (Standard pressure and temperature) and should not give any problems afaik.
And the right pedal input just don't have enough force to keep it even near steady.
I'm doing heavy acrobatics with my legs to no avail, and showing up for work with a limp.

I found issues with the FM, the solution, or at least part of it for me has been uninstalling the module and installed it again, instant action at all the maps is broken, not loading weapons and the gazelle almost unflyable, but the two campaigns works fine, only have to enter each mission and select weapons before start flying and lower fuel almost to 50%, before enter the mission.

At least works for me and can fly the chopper "more or less" like before.

Hope this help, also the trim is a real pain in the ass, not working as expected.

I will check fuel quantity
