Works good for me. Could you try to drag it to the barge again?

Ah. I see the issue apologies.  I was trying to use take off from ground and trying to do multiple clients for a multiplayer mission. When I use parking they superimpose the helos on top of each other in the first parking spot only.   I guess this more of a basic mission editing question then but how would you be able to designate what pad to start from so that you could have statics on the other pads?

Thanks for the great additions.

It can be done Keyser, I’ve got it set with a client Huey, a static and a player Loach. 

Think I set them by choosing the ramp numbers? I’ll have a look at it when I’m at it but it’s possible.

It’s not as difficult as stabbing the devil in the back, you should be ok. 🙂

Sounds good I'll look into that too.

So we need more friction?

can you set friction on 2 axis? bc lateral friction coeff should be different from fwd-backwd coeff. a heli slides fairly easier fwd-aft vs lateral.

i think ground friction should be enough to be able to roll the helicopter on its side with side cyclic input, given enough power. it should really not be possible to slide sideways before rolling over.

With the new version 1.2, the main problem in version 1.1, namely the excessive torque reaction to changes to the collective in particular, has been almost completely eliminated.

lso, this video is not about the flight model and all the things that still need some care; the main focus is on flight behavior, controllability, and the fun of flying the egg. After a few short tests, I made significant changes in the axis settings that suited my system best and gave me the best possible feeling of flying a 500.

I started messing with it again earlier from scratch. I had a few go AWOL on me but yeah, it's the ramp numbering and plotting that goes a bit weird. Couple of hours went by and I haven't had a fly yet. That ME's deadly 🤪. Works anyhow 🙂.

Erm, To Add: I'm thinking something's up with the sea-barge floaty job? I've created a new mission, chosen a map, plonked the barge down and I plot a player heli, a static and a couple of veterans. Each time I either lose one or my flight's been delayed. When I try to back out of the ME DCS locks and either CTD or I have to force close DCS to get anywhere.

Odd.

I've spent a while just plotting bits with the float Barge. After loads of tests I can't place statics on it. Well, I can, but they appear under water when I do 😄.

The cargo version of the Loach can be placed on the barge though, I had it with cargo for the Huey, Cows too.

Trying to plot a patrol boat to pull alongside I found it stops dead in the water before it gets there. Maybe the collision box needs trimming or something but it'd be good to be able to do what I've been trying to. Moor it up. Placing statics would be good too.

Also, wonder if plotting the Loach as AI is something we should look forward to, or rule out? I can't help trying it. Sometimes they explode, sometimes they fly off 🙂.

Hey dude great video, was this filmed with the 1.1 or the 1.2 version? 

I'm really enjoying 1.2, although I'd be curious to know if the flight model was made more realistic or was made easier for people to fly 😂

@0:48 you can see the github page showing v1.1 as the latest release. That, and them having so much trouble, HEAVILY points towards it being v1.1. 😃

So every time I try to fly this one as soon as I apply a little collective the chopper files up and goes into a torque spin followed immediately by an engine out and crash. Is this a bug or what am I doing wrong?

Have you checked your axis bindings for wrong or double bindings? (inverted axis e.g.)

The units in this mod are so amazing and well made that they deserve to be incorporated into the base DCS game. @BIGNEWY would this be possible? Would it be possible to ask the ED team? Thanks!

I have been enjoying the videos of the OH-6A and of these mods, looks a lot of fun. 

It would be up to the developer to approach us for consideration if they wanted to go official, or consider the mods. 

I can make no promises however.

Thank you! The addition of ground units to DCS World would be very welcome. I hope @tobi and @Eight Ball get in touch. Have a great day.

I can almost guarantee that your collective needs to be inversed, and what's happening right now is that as you move it a tiny bit from what you think is "0%" it immediately goes to 99-100%, jumps in the air and then stalls.

Just going to kick the fire some more and encourage them to go 3rd party! Here me and the boys are tearing it up with the Phantom and OH-6.  The Cayuse is a must for MP! We are working on setting up a Middle east Scenario with it now.

Good to see these, I do love this bird.

Been feeling guilty flying the Kiowa so have to have little trips in this just to keep my hand in 😄.
