Shredding Blades

[AhSoul]

I'm probably doing something obviously wrong, but since getting BS2 a couple of nights ago, nearly every flight I try ends up with me losing all my rotor blades and crashing.

 

I've not figured out a pattern of what I'm doing at the time to make it happen, but is there a standard cause that you more seasons pilots know about?

 

I've got the throttle set to Auto (which is just before the gate lifts up right?) and it seems to happen randomly when pitching or rolling.

 

BTW I had a look in the Training section but doesn't look like there are interactive training like in the A-10C. I assume the 'Install (EN)' option is going to install videos like with the SU-25?

Ah found

for training :)

Thanks! So basically you can't be too aggressive with it?

[sobek]

You can throw it around quite aggressively but there are certain combinations of inputs that you need to avoid. Keep the things Nate mentions in that post in mind and you'll develop a good feeling for what you can or can't do (usually that involves crashing a lot, though :)).

shows you what can be done if you know what not to do.

Thanks mate. I've always been a fixed-wing guy so this is all quite different :)

If you have experienced a rotor intersection and are not sure what caused it, post the track file so the community can take a look at it and tell you what went wrong.

Oh ok I'll remember that! Cheers :D

Man, you're on fire, right?

I just answered a question of yours in the A-10 section.

I lift my hat for you, learning A-10 and KA-50, simultaneously! :smartass:

 

Cheers!

Considering he had rotor intersections and (presumably) slammed into the ground... Yeah, he probably was on fire. :D

[AhSoul]

LOL

 

Thanks! BTW I'm learning the P-51 as well :D

 

They were on sale so took advantage and it's nice to have a break from the A-10 to try new stuff out. I'm getting the hang of the Ka-50 trimmer button and using the autopilot so I've not shredded blades for a bit now ;)
