Shinigami Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Hi: I'm a system engineer student, A friend of mine is doing his thesis on simulating a Mi-17 and he is not as fluent in english as I, and to make the history short he wans to know is there is some info(thesis,book,paper,articles anything is useful :)) on Helicopter dynamics's it doesn't matter that the info is in russian or english, or you guys can give to him some direction in were to find info. Thanks in before. Shinigami Out... La guerra, asi como es madrastra de los cobardes, es madre de los valientes. Cervantes. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
GGTharos Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 I would suggest PMing AlphaOneSix. He works/worked with Mi-17's :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda
Shinigami Posted May 4, 2011 Author Posted May 4, 2011 thanks GGTharos if you know other sources that would be great also if you could tell thous guys of the tread that also would be nice. La guerra, asi como es madrastra de los cobardes, es madre de los valientes. Cervantes. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
AlphaOneSix Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 I have a flash-based instructional program for the Mi-17 (actually Mi-171). It's mostly about the systems, but there is also some instruction on physics (mostly specific to Mi-17) and it includes quite a bit of the flight manual information. I'll upload it to a location where you can download, but it will take an hour or so. I'll let you know the URL when it's done.
Shinigami Posted May 4, 2011 Author Posted May 4, 2011 I'm not in the University now, so when I speak with my friend I will tell you, Also you don't have some more specific about the dynamic of helicopters and the implementation it doesn't have to be of the mi-17. Thanks for the info. La guerra, asi como es madrastra de los cobardes, es madre de los valientes. Cervantes. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
JaNk0 Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Can maybe ask ED. Maybe they have some more information on that helicopter? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

Thanks for the info. Try the following site, its focus is on helicopter aerodynamics though. http://www.dynamicflight.com/ <<main site http://www.dynamicflight.com/aerodynamics/ <<Aerodynamics http://www.dynamicflight.com/flight_maneuvers/ <<Flight maneuvers how to do them and most common mistakes. Hopefully you find the above links useful. If he has any specific questions about helicopters in general feel free to PM me. By now i have about 3 years worth of hands on experience on the S76B, EC155B1 and the AW139. Also worked a bit on the S61N.

AlphaOneSix Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Also worked a bit on the S61N. Sorry to hear that. ;)
ben1101 Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 This is what I learned with: http://www.amazon.com/Principles-Helicopter-Flight-Training-Manuals/dp/1560272171 Had a lot of useful theory with calculations on rotary winged flight. Found this site: http://www.helicoptersonly.com/contents/en-us/d2.html It has a lot of similar manuals as well as type a/c manuals from the R22 to the B206. HTH EDIT: AlphaOneSix I would be very interested in tech and flight manuals for the MI-17 too! i5 4690K, GTX1070, 24GB 1800mhz, HP WMR, Custom FFB helicopter controls.
159th_Falcon Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Sorry to hear that. ;) ??? could you elaborate? Loved working on it. You also worked on the 61??? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The keeper of all mathematical knowledge and the oracle of flight modeling.:)
AlphaOneSix Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 ??? could you elaborate? Loved working on it. You also worked on the 61??? Coworkers of mine that used to work on S-61 loved them, too, but they seem to have been more maintenance intensive than some newer aircraft. Also, they apparently share the Mi-17's love of grease. I have never touched an S-61.
Shinigami Posted May 9, 2011 Author Posted May 9, 2011 Thanks for all the info if you happen to come across with something more physic oriented that would also be great and AlphaOneSix you can post the info whenever you want I already told to my friend.

Shinigami out... I will send you a PM with the URL...
159th_Falcon Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Coworkers of mine that used to work on S-61 loved them, too, but they seem to have been more maintenance intensive than some newer aircraft. Also, they apparently share the Mi-17's love of grease. I have never touched an S-61. True, they are quite intensive in the maintenance program, and that was whit vastly extended maintenance intervals approved by local CAA and Sikorsky. Though, most things are relative easy and straight forward jobs whit easy and quick access. Generators and other consumers on the back of the MGB being an exception. And yes, you will need a couple of grease monkeys....... On the AW139 for example, maintenance is indeed less, but you spend hours getting out and putting back in screws from panels for literally 5 mins worth of inspection. BTW, sorry for the slight offtopic chat were having here. ~S~ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The keeper of all mathematical knowledge and the oracle of flight modeling.:)
Frazer Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 A team mate of me found these clips, very interesting! Ug6W7_tafnc&feature=related dBS1NRsYuF8 Forum | Videos | DCS:BS Demo1 / Demo2 | YouTube Channel [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
sobek Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 A team mate of me found these clips, very interesting! I've already seen the first one, but it still amazes me how the blades can have such long life cycles when they are thrown around like that all the time. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two. Come let's eat grandpa! Use punctuation, save lives!
