Frazer Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 (edited) Heya all, after more than a year DCS Black Shark there are still very few pilots taking a look in to helicopter aerobatics and team aerobatics. Here is a collection of helicopter vids (mainly aerobatics), might give some motivation!? :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSGNB6x-v7M Edited February 3, 2010 by Frazer Forum | Videos | DCS:BS Demo1 / Demo2 | YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
26-J39 Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Thx Frazer :thumbup: That last vid really cracked me up :lol: No FAA in Rio :P
159th_Falcon Posted February 7, 2010 Posted February 7, 2010 Some impressive flying, though i challenge everyone to recreate the following moves in the KA-50. Wish the KA-50 could match that nifty lil machine its performance. NOE flying is for wimps btw, Try some NOE aerobatics as per vid above:D:D:D [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The keeper of all mathematical knowledge and the oracle of flight modeling.:)
Frazer Posted February 7, 2010 Author Posted February 7, 2010 It would be very interesting if there was a mod to invert the collective in DCS! :D Unlimited moves! :joystick: Forum | Videos | DCS:BS Demo1 / Demo2 | YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Wish the KA-50 could match that nifty lil machine its performance. Did you see how the footage is sped up at about 36 seconds into the vid to make the 3D maneuvers look more extreme? Don't know why! 3D R/C Heli's are impressive regardless...! :)
airtom Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 It would be very interesting if there was a mod to invert the collective in DCS! :D Unlimited moves! :joystick: What do u mean by inverting collective (if it's not invert axis in options) ?
AlphaOneSix Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I think he means a mod to allow negative pitch in the main rotor, allowing aerobatic maneuvers in the game similar to those performed by RC helicopters.
airtom Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 I think he means a mod to allow negative pitch in the main rotor, allowing aerobatic maneuvers in the game similar to those performed by RC helicopters. I see. It probably would be possible to model it in game, right? But as the Ka-50 is fighter helicopter, would allowing unrealistic behavior to it make sense? Frazer, keep showing us amazing maneuvers with what you got ;)
AlphaOneSix Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 It makes sense for the entertainment value, sure. Of course it's horribly unrealistic, but it could be entertaining to watch.
EinsteinEP Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 Great vids, Frazer! The reason I don't do aerobatics in the Ka50 is that normal flight is hard enough of a challenge right now! Once I can manage hovering, I'll start working on my dive-hammerhead-dive-immelman-S turn-funnel maneuver. :music_whistling: I noticed the boresight indicator in the HUD from the 1st Ka-50 video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG1E1lgTsLw ) is inverted compared to what we have in game. Interesting! Shoot to Kill. Play to Have Fun.

Once I can manage hovering, I'll start working on my dive-hammerhead-dive-immelman-S turn-funnel maneuver. :music_whistling: This may play a big role in the very limited amount of pilots flying aerobatics. The question may be, what should be mastered first? Flying/aerobatics skills or combat skills? I noticed the boresight indicator in the HUD from the 1st Ka-50 video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG1E1lgTsLw ) is inverted compared to what we have in game. Interesting! I also noticed that, and I have no clue why this is. Anyone? Forum | Videos | DCS:BS Demo1 / Demo2 | YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
EinsteinEP Posted February 9, 2010 Posted February 9, 2010 The question may be, what should be mastered first? Flying/aerobatics skills or combat skills?IMHO, flying skills, but that's because I enjoy the challenge of flying "normal". Other folks may enjoy performing wild aerobatics more than executing a regulation traffic pattern - I'm the opposite! I would also think that having a mastery of general flying skills can lead to better aerobatics and combat. Shoot to Kill. Play to Have Fun.
26-J39 Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 I also noticed that, and I have no clue why this is. Anyone? If you look at the second part to the clip : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0kOfRaTsYs&feature=related you will see some minor differences in cockpit, this is obviously a slightly different KA-50 (minor mods, not sure). I assume this is why the HUD symbology is different. This clip shows the HUD of the production KA-50 : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bEHJc1pTkHc&feature=related Cheers
