Does the KA50 have a ejection seat (k36) because a saw a screenshot where you can see the ejection handles

 

Could it be when the pilot ejects the rotor blades will blast off?

It would be nice to see how they model this in BS, just have to wait for screenshots

UUH ! I don't wanna eject from this Choppers when the Rotorblades didn't blown away =)

 

Yes the only Choppers at the moment with a Ejection Seat is the Ka-50 and the Ka-52 (Doubleseater Version of the Black Shark)

 

And yes i rellay would welcome the eject feature on the BS ;)

There's some things that you can predict as constants on any Lock On board.

 

 

One is JJ-Alfa appearing at the merest mention of a MiG29K, another is me appearing at the sniff of dual-control aircraft, and the less-known one is Force_Feedback appearing, as if a silhouette of a K-36D was being projected onto the clouds of Gotham City, whenever anything even faintly related to ejection seats is mentioned . . . . . . ;)

 

 

I give it about another twenty minutes, tops.

ka-50 have the k36 0-0 ejection seat implemented afaik. as the only helo as i remember. first the blades are blown away with a pyrocharge and then the pilot is shot out of the helo.

My 2 cents -

The pilot is being lifted from the helo in his seat by a rocket that takeoffs behind the pilot's seat. The rocket then pulls the seat because it is connected with it by some steellike rope :)

 

I heard in formation flight ejecting is causing great hazard to nearby helicopters because of the kinetic energy of blown off blades flying in all directions.

Yes, the post above has the right ejection seat mentioned, the official designation of the system is not K-36, but "Zvezda K-37-800 rocket extraction seat". You can hardly can call it an ejection seat, because it lacks any kind of catapult (the thing that pushes the seat out before the rocket engine ignites, also known as a ROCAT).

On the Ka-50, first each bolts (2 of them per blade) near the rotor hub are detonated, removing the risk of any serious harm caused by thin chunks of plastic travelling at 600 km/h, also known as rotors. Then the upper glazing goes, along with the upper hatch, when that is out of the way, the rocket (that white thing on the backside of the seat, behind the headrest) is ignited in low power mode. The rocket itself has deflected nozzles, to ensure stability by spinning around. After the extraction cord has reached full length, the rocket motor fires in full power mode, pulling out the parachute and pilot by the shoulder straps.

The direction of travel of the rocket is slightly forward to compensate for high speed and zero-zero ejections.

The whole sequence takes approximately 1.5 seconds, which is significantly more than that of "modern" ejection seats, which is about 0.6 seconds. The system allows for ejection in the full envelope, and at 50m when inverted.

 

The body of the Ka-50 ensures survival for the pilot if the vertical crash speed does not exceed 12.5 m/s, or something in that vicinity, I'm not sure about that speed, it might be higher.

Well, it looks like it was more than twenty minutes, but hey, you called it! :)

What are the K-37-800 ejection parameters (in the game)?

What I mean is what is the minimum altitude for save ejection? Maximum speed? etc.

We have all been there at one time by now, pulling the ejection handle to see your pilot follow the KA-50 wreckage all the way to the ground.

To whom it may concern,

I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that.

Thank you for you patience.

0-0 means

 

0 - altitude

0 - speed

The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance.

When I eject while turning close to the ground, my virtual representation always crash to the ground.

 

I find that in most circonstances, ejecting and surviving is a 50/50 chances.

joey45, I do not think this seat is 0Alt 0 speed and if it is I still would like to know the parameters because is hard to get a successful ejection in DCS BS. Most of the time I do not have 0 speed nor 0 alt :D more like 120 KPH of speed ( to include a decent rate of maybe 500 to 900 m/s as I go down in flames) and 50m of altitude. What is the maximum negative vertical velocity that I can eject safely and make it out? What is the minimum altitude? :book:

part of the ejection envelope would also include you bank angle and pitch...there is prolly a good graph of this somewhere.

well that graph might come in handy for me, ive been ejecting kinda badly here lately, pilot sets a record speed for body slamming the ground..

Wait a second, whats with the flashing red lights...

...oh no, that can't be good.

A descent rate of 500 to 900 m/s is like mach 1.5 to mach 2.7. Probably mixed up some figures? :P

 

I suppose maximum negative vertical velocity and minimum altitude go hand in hand; anyway you won't get a definite answer without knowing the specs of the ejection seat, i.e. acceleration, burn time of the rocket motor or rather how they're modeled in Black Shark.

It should to some extent. What I mean is as long as I am within the seat parameters and the seat work as advertise, I should survive ejection.
