msalama Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Hiya guys - Wikipedia says the real chopper has a ceiling of 19390ft, depending on environmental factors such as weight and outside temperature. I personally had no problems with taking our fully loaded bird up to 19000ft or so when flying over the mountains en route from Kutaisi to Nalchik yesterday, so BST having reduced its engine power in v1.2.6 doesn't seem to have affected this part of the performance envelope at least. But what're your experiences - have you done any high flying in v1.2.6 and how did it go? The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

b00ce Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 If you can autorotate from 1,000 feet, you can do it from 19,000 feet. ;) LG 34UC97 34" 3440x1440 monitor | 2x GTX-980 G1 Gaming I7-5820k @ 3.3GHz | 16GB Corsair Vengeance DDR4 @ 2133Mhz Samsung 840 EVO 120GB & 1TB SSDs | Seagate 3TB HDD TM Warthog | Saitek Pro Flight Combat Pedals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
