Hello.

 

After 2 Weeks in Full Real Settings, learning Starting Procedure, Weapon and Sensor Basics, Auto Hover and Basic FLight Maneuvers. After lots of Crashing, Rotor Intersection and Trackfile Posting here i am!

 

Learned it the Hard way and the Hokum starts paying back for my Patience! :thumbup:

 

I managed to make the Mission to clear Tchackvelli from Enemy Presence and my Convoi passed undamaged. Killed 2 M2A2, Jeeps, Vulcan and an Infantrysquad and a MANPAD with Canon. 2 Georgian F5 got shot down.

 

Only thing to worry about is a Stinger Hit on my Wingman wich had to make an Emergency Landing :joystick:

 

But im still calling the Mission an Sucess. :)

 

Proud as a Boy can be. thx for your Support and Hints.

Awesome isn't it?! :D

 

I recently started the Deployment campaign also as a beginner and I have sooo much fun. It's really rewarding, after all the practice and learning the basics, to finally get out there bringing carnage upon your enemies. :joystick:

It is a brilliant campaign - first mission i flew was the tour around the area, and I have to say I had more fun on that mission just admiring the AI and scenery than any combat mission :)

Posted

Now i started the Campaign.

 

First Mission was really impressive. Nice Sightseeing Tour around the Conflict Area. I expected a Stigner attack and my Flare Dispensers where programmed. ;)

 

Second Mission was immersive too. Found the Ambush Site and killed those 2 Squads. But couldnt do better as another Squad Pops up (a bit unrealistic to me) and shoots a BRDM with 75mm Heat RPG. And a Truck was killed.

 

But still Mission sucess! :pilotfly:

And it gets better and better. Started the Campaign and now flown the Revenge Mission on that Night FARP Attack where i had to flee. Killed the Terrorist Hideout and followed the Terrorist Aera COs car with S8 Rocketpods in a Thrilling Night Hunt down South out of town in the Darkness. Stoped him by Hit infron tof the Car about 4m and it stopped.

 

I waited for 1 Minute so they could came out and raise their Hands but they just shouted "Allah Akbar!" and then i pulled the Trigger gave them another Pair of S8 Rockets in their Theets! :devil_2:

I loved that mission! Going in under the cover of darkness, blowing up the house and then track down the fleeing car. The pursuit was really cool, first I lost them and started scanning the traffic on the road. Eventually I tracked the car down but my lock system wasn't working so fired one big salvo with the cannon all around the car and in front of it. Torched it within seconds. I would love to see more missions like that, supporting spec ops under the cover of darkness, eliminiting high targets, stuff like that :joystick:

Posted

Yes it was awesome. I gunned them down with the S-8 :joystick:

 

Now i made the Mission where to Kill some Supporttrucks guarded by Zu-23 Emplacments. Mission was Cakewalk. Mi-24 killed some units but i didnt see where. I killed the ZU-23 Emplacments and a Stinger Manpad with VIKHR. After that i turned in from the W of Town to destroy the Remaining Sandbox. 7.76mm Ammorfile Hit me and scratched my Right Engine! My first Wound in Combat.

 

After that on way home i got some Rotordisc Intersection. :( Had to Eject and landed saftey. Anyway Mission sucess. Hope my next Heli is keeping my Luck.

 

Missions get harder?

 

PS: Immersion Feeling is outstanding!

Missions get harder?

Personally I thought the Deployment campaign was pretty easy. I started it with only 7 flight hours under my belt and have a 80% mission success rate (including one crash because my cat decided to jump on my desk while flying NoE). Still need to finish the last mission though.

 

I'm playing with the "less gamey labels" mod so basicly you get labels when you're about 1.5km or 2km away and every label is grey (friendlies and enemies). It basicly helps you to find those last annoying infantry men because for stationary objects and vehicles you're always much further away.

Got further into the Deployment Campaign.

 

Now im in that Mission where you have to fly a Deep Strike into Georgian Territory. Followed my flightpath and just dont get over the Kaukasus. At 3300m ASL i cant get any higher. How to get over to Georiga?

Started out with a Full Fuel Load, Rockets and Vikhrs. Ditched the Rockets at 4000m ASL and pushed till approx 4600m ASL before Right Engine Flamed out. Now you will not need to get that high so disregard the Engine #*%* Failure and subsequent Tyre-Busting Landing :D

 

Just have regard to Climb and how to best manage it to get over the Peaks.

 

Hope it Helps :)

Regarding the climb, remember to keep a decent forward speed, as the helo can generate more lift that way. Try around 150 km/h, if not already doing that.

Posted

Second Try and i did it! Got onto around 4000m and get to that Georgian Arms Industrie. But my Wingman and SU Planes didnt make their Job well. They shot down the Enemy Su Fighters but didnt fight the 2 Incoming MI-24V that shot me down with their AT-6 Spiral in my Face!

 

Was so concentrated to kill that MRLS Systems so i didnt see them :doh:

Posted

Last 3 Times i tryed to Climb the Kaukasus Mountain to get into Georgia again i always get Rotorintersection. If you look the Helo from Behin i always have the lower Rotordisc going up on the Right side almost touching the Upper Rotordisc. What am i doing wrong? How to avoid that?

Posted

Some good advice and some good Reads. But i still got a question:

 

Is it normal at some descent speed and good Trimming that:

 

a) i have those Right Side Lower Rotor Disc almost touching the upper one?

 

b) have the "Little Black Ball" on my Analog Display not pointed in the Middle and drifting over the Ground?

 

I simply dont get the right trimming there. Trim Stick to 30% Front and always have to move it a Tad to the Right. Never to the Left. Stick is well calibrated and working fine! :joystick:

Posted

Taki, that's normal and expected.

 

a) This is explained in one of those threads, I believe. Helo rotors tilt due to the greater lift the advancing blades have when compared to the retreating blades (this is called dissymetry of lift). Read more about it here. Because the rotors rotate in opposite directions, they also tilt in opposite directions.

 

b) That's easy to happen in a helo, but it shouldn't, you can fly coordinated (centered ball) at any speed.

What my instructor always said (and what most flight instructors hammer into their student) is "step on the ball".

 

If the ball is slightly off-centre to the right, apply more right rudder. This needs to be updated continually to adjust for changes in attitude, airspeed and so on. After sufficient training it becomes second-nature and you won't even think about it.

 

Note however that with a helicopter there are circumstances where you want to sideslip - that is, have the ball off-centre. Obvious example would be when flying sideways. Similarly, in some fixed-wing aircraft you would also want this in some regimes - usually older aircraft or very simple designs without airbrakes where sideslipping will increase drag (slow you down), decrease lift (make you descend faster) in order to moderate your position in the glideslope when on final for landing.
