takamba Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Do single rotor aircraft have similar issues? Itkovian Yes they do! DCS Rafale - please :thumbup:
GGTharos Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Increasing speed/collective will increase blade flapping (As well as right pedal), causing the rotors to move closer...and closer ...

Nate--IRL-- Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Well F me! :doh: It's all part off the fun. After many Fiery Rotor-less Crashes , and there will be many, you will develop a 6th sense about which manoeuvres & parts of the flight envelope to avoid.

mjolner Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 For the Op, if you are having problems and you think the chopper is delibrately trying to kill you, hit Right Control + Enter to bring up the axis display tool, nice way to diagnose a problem. I always cancel trim settings when transitioning to a hover, atleast from high speed anyway. Just make sure you are ready with cyclic in hand to counter act any reactions. It is hard to believe but this thing only flies as well as it is controlled. If that makes any sense to you.
Itkovian Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 This is a very chilling video, but most impressive. :) Itkovian
