Grenadey Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Just thought I'd share my first successful combat autorotation. :pilotfly: http://youtu.be/ec8BljspL9Y Toad, Shark, Huey and Mi-8 driver. 27" iMac 3.4Ghz i7, 16GB DDR3, 2GB 680MX .

Griffin Posted May 12, 2013 Posted May 12, 2013 Very nice actually! Smooth even though you got peppered the crap out of you. But man... stand off is the word.

Haha, yeah, normally I would, but I wanted to throw it around a bit to test the joystick extension. Works surprisingly well.... ;) Toad, Shark, Huey and Mi-8 driver. 27" iMac 3.4Ghz i7, 16GB DDR3, 2GB 680MX .

HugePanic Posted May 13, 2013 Posted May 13, 2013 Hi, the AR was ok given the problems you had.. :thumbup: I think this video also is a good example of how NOT to fly combat.. -don't attack from this altitude with a chopper!! (there is nothing to hide up there) -break after the first couple of rounds fired -break after the first damage, to asses the actual damage -don't be stationarry during your attack (you did a complete 360° turn for nothing and killed all your speed. you were a lame duck after that) you did not "walk away" after the fire! you are captured due to the close distance of your landing site to the enemy. You had a millions of chances to "walk away" after the first hit's on the helicopter, but all were canceled by your manoevering... I know it was a joystick test, so don't take my comments personally... :joystick: I just wanted have this video commented for anybody to learn...
Grenadey Posted May 13, 2013 Author Posted May 13, 2013 No worries, I had my head down looking under my desk not out of the window for quite a lot of that flight (obviously not when I was doing the autorotation). I don't take any comments personally, if I did I'd probably never go anywhere near any forum on the internet. ;) Toad, Shark, Huey and Mi-8 driver. 27" iMac 3.4Ghz i7, 16GB DDR3, 2GB 680MX .
