Poll: will your head explode having to learn both the Ka-50 and A-10 Controls?

 

Having to learn all the Helo controls, memorize, and use them all. Then, learn the A-10 Controls and memorize them too!

[greg765]

If you are speaking about key controls,I think there will be lots of equivalents.EG : G will still be for the gear,enter to lock a target...

 

If you are speaking about procedures (like startup),I think it is possible to memorize two differents startups, depending of the plane.

It's sure that if one day there are 50 differents planes it will be hard,but I think it won't happen.(But it would be great :thumbup:;) )

 

So I think we can memorize the controls.

Moreover, the A-10 cockpit will be written in English,it's not like the KA-50 that you can have in Russian (see in your options.)

 

So I think my head won't explode (Or I hope !:joystick:

[Xjikz]

If you can't memorize them all, then go "arcade mode" :lol:

[Dusty Rhodes]

When the A-10 comes along, the Black Shark will be long gone in my memory.

[159th_Viper]

Gonna Divide my time equally between the two.....Helo vs Fixed-Wing cannot stand to be compared in any event so one will not negate the other insofar as Gameplay is concerned :)

 

Heads are Gonna explode when the Fast-Movers appear me thinks :D

[Outlaw24]

I don't perceive a problem, really looking forward to flying the A-10

[sobek]

Just a note: The A-10 startup (at least of the engines) is a lot more automatised than the Ka-50 startup.

It's not so much head exploding, it's just that as I learn the new the old will be falling out of my head.

[Bulletstop]

i really do not think it will matter, if you are used to starting it and have done so for a fair bit, muscle memory will set in :)

 

I still jump into IL46 and still remember all the keys I used. The only one i have issues with is Falcon 4, and for that I have a checklist :)

[Boberro]

I can handle it ;]

 

It is similar situation but much more simpler than there, where in school you have example one external language to learn and later you get second. Often I heard "I'll mistake words between these two languages" and ect sentences. It is not true, so why here with much simpler situation that should be a problem :D

If you can learn to use a PC keyboard, you can learn to use anything.

[joey45]

will your head explode having to learn both the Ka-50 and A-10 Controls?

 

All i have is that scene in Pulp Fiction...

 

[L4key]

I only know about 10 key commands, between mouse point and click, and 12 joystick buttons I'm sorted. Easy!

[joey45]

well. you have your primary controls on your HOTAS and use your mouse in the pit for stuff you wont use often, like Master Arm.

[Pilotasso]

When A-10 comes along I wont look at the KA-50. Infact it has been a while since I touched it.

[Hunt3r.j2]

You also forgot having to learn the AH-64A controls

[ruprecht]

... and the A-6

[Ovenmit]

Voted no.

 

Anyone with moderate flightsim experience should be able to handle both sims...

[muamshai]

short answer: No

long answer: NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[DocNobby]

Nope.

 

I already have the MD-11, A318-321, Concorde, ATR 42 and Dash 8 controls and procedures in there. :smartass:

 

One more or less, who cares... :pilotfly:

 

P.S. Yes, I am a nerd!

having worked on fighters and military aircraft for 20 years the A-10 will be a walk in the park.

[H-street]

i don't look at it so much as memorizing the keys etc.. just learning the systems.

 

"but Marge, every time I learn something new I forget something else. Remember when I took that Wine making class and forgot how to drive?"

"You didn't forget, you were drunk!"

"And HOW!"

[Martillo1]

Yeah, clickable cockpits are the perfect solution (plus HOTAS).

[element1108]

Simply CANNOT wait! :)

 

Looking forward to the first set of producer notes or one of GA's little video's ;).

[hannibal]

its alight.. as long as i start making my two MFD and program the buttons and rotary knobs, i will be ok, most functions will be handle by this i think....
