need track replay Rotor blades rotating endlessly after shutdown

[Migparts]

The problem with this one, it happens only sometimes and other times not. I am not sure what is going here.

Hey @Migparts

The DCS: CH-47D does not have a rotor brake, therefore the blades will rotate freely to a stop.
Sometimes, wind can actually affect the time it takes for them to stop. 

If you feel there are abnormal situations with this procedure, please create a short track for our analysis.

To speed it up a bit, once you turned the engines off, start feeding in collective.

The drag will significantly reduce rotor speed, not very realistic though.

I am replying to remind myself to do this. Normal CH47 blades stop within 45 - 60 seconds or so.

Does it happen with the correct shutdown procedure too? I think when I don't  use the Apu and shut down all at once the rotor never stops. But with the correct procedure the shutdown works.

that broke my apu, and i could not restart the bird after repairing some bullet holes. =/ had to re-slot. 

also the FLIGHT PLAN MANAGER doesn't work anymore. 

I could not start the bird after repairing.*
