reduce helicopter weight GEORGE really Sucks!!!

[mchighlander73]

Men! This George AI is really making the flight experience a S..T

When ordered to hold and Hover, It simply doesn't maintain the altitude and it continue descending till to the ground, then boing up and remain still at 10meters more or less....

Really can't do nothing from the CP/G seat....

What's your aircraft's gross weight? George has to respect the torque limits.

[Zyll]

Yeah agreed, unlike a player, George won't happily over torque the bird to 120% to keep in an out of ground effect hover. Check your PERF page to see if you are setting George up to fail ;)

Zyll @ TAW

[The_Nephilim]

yes check your weight and the p[erformance page. I have no issues with George as me being the gunner..

[sirrah]

Just like @The_Nephilim, no issues here with George AI when I operate from the CPG seat.

Perhaps if you share a track file, we could see what you're doing.

 

Also, your thread title is a bit toxic and unnecessary..

I tried to uncheck the "sync hotas controls with cockpit" as I read somewhere, but it doesn't works....

I've only 50% fuel, 2 rockets pods and 8 hellfire don't remember gun rounds....

Would be worth checking your gun rounds….if you have 1200 rounds loaded, this will affect weight. FCR also mounted?

also flight condition‘s might affect performance. Are flying In Hot and High conditions?

Did you check PERF page for calculated IGE and OGE hover torques?

[mchighlander73]

gun rounds are 25% and I've the FCR

where is the perf page?

[Smashy]

You running with the aux fuel tank (indicated as IAFS)?  I'm guessing yes since you only have 25% gun load.  50% fuel with IAFS, FCR, 2 rocket pods, 8 Hellfire puts you over 18,000lbs.  That's pretty heavy.  It might be impossible to hold an OGE hover without over-torque'ing.

[mchighlander73]

Yes! there was the aux fuel tank... didn't notice it!

Without it now things going nicer, but to have a more stable Hover I had to unload 2 114 per pylon also.

Is the Performance on the MPD?

Yes.  The PERF page is discussed in detail in the manual on page 139.

And Bradmick has a tutorial video on it, as well. (The video was made just prior to it being released.)

Thank you very much for the indications... I'll get more attention on this....
