Yaw unstable on the Apache


Recommended Posts

Can we have the original topic unlocked? There were patchnotes regarding this issue today and I'd love to see the discussion going.

DCS 2.9.20.15010 change log
FM. Tweaked Yaw SCAS: Some users complained about excessive yaw-wobble during control by pedals and in transient modes when the helicopter's SCAS Heading Hold mode is ON.

Got to love the condescending tone / gaslighting of that phrase in the patch notes...

Anyway, it's just a band-aid for now until we get the new rotor model - this has all been announced before.

Just tried it and I'm happy, looking foward to flying apache again! Today I was able to control yaw in hover taxi as well as in transitions, quite smooth and no erratic violent moves that I'd have to counter.
But I was just a "some user who complained", and the fix wasn't needed of course, so maybe it's me who got patched? Let me know what you think.

It became more stable, indeed. Not ideal but flyable. Altitude hold works weird sometimes. I think those things are connected. New rotor model should fix yaw and altitude hold cases. I'm that "some user" too, by the way.

As mentioned in other threads we are doing some work on the rotor for a future patch. 

This yaw tweak is an interim tweak while we wait for the main work to be completed. 

She is certainly handling better now. 

thanks

Apache was messy on the yaw before, really weird, but now is highly controllable and smooth. It is awesome. 👍
The many flights with the pre patch handling were golden in the sense that will make many players here absolutely gods at handling the bird now. 😅

I'd like to have whatever is most realistic, but I don't mind the tweak so far.
