AlphaOneSix Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Interesting non-standard cyclic you have there. Anymore details about it? Avionics upgrade from Kelowna Flightcraft. Here's a PDF with some (but not all) of the upgrade info: http://www.helicopter-database.de/images/mi8/Mi17KF_4.pdf Here's a picture of the Mi-17KF cockpit (not exactly like ours, but similar):
lorenzoj Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 I thought this might be interesting for you all to see - a clip filmed within the cockpit, focusing on the pilot during landing. Go to 8:20: Noticed that there was always forward movement even if just a little till the moment it landed it seemed........
jimcarrel Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Just had a quick flash-back to Jane's AH-64, warm smile. Win 10 64 bit Intel I-7 7700K 32GB Ram Nvidia Geforce GTX 1060 6gig
BeachAV8R Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Is it just me..but do those seats look terribly uncomfortable? It seems as if the posture of the pilot is such that he has to lean forward for the duration of the flight (?).. BeachAV8R
AlphaOneSix Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 They are not as bad as they look, but they are also not great.

Go to 8:20: i may be wrong but the pilot we see in this video is our MI-8 one of the Belsimtek team [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]W10(64bit)Asus Rog Strix Z370-F - i7 8700K - Dark Rock Pro 4 - 16 giga ram Corsair vengeance 3000 - MSI RTX 2070 Super - Asus Rog Phobeus soundcard - Z906 Surround speaker - Track ir5 - HOTAS Warthog
chardly38 Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 I wonder if Belsimtek will adjust the audio to get the breaks back. Or at least to hear it lightly.

ophiuchus Posted October 26, 2013 Posted October 26, 2013 Here's another video of the same Mi-8 mentioned in this thread, just this one is showing taxiing, hover check and takeoff. Notice at about 4:15 the sound of breaks installation. And also the running takeoff which takes almost all runway :D Anyway, I miss that sound. c1tnpiwmKHo
dahui Posted October 28, 2013 Posted October 28, 2013 In Soviet Russia, you adjust to seat position. haha! :megalol: i love "in soviet Russia jokes :D In Sovjet Russia, Chelikiopter flies you!
Mogster Posted October 28, 2013 Posted October 28, 2013 Well I don't think it was any secret that ED initially "planned" to release the AH-64A after the Ka-50, but it never really passed that planning stage as far as those of us outside of ED were concerned. Then they started on the A-10C and the rest is history. It surprises me that no one's planning an AH64, even a Lock On level D version would sell like hot cakes I'm sure. A module with the systems level of the old Apache Longbow sim would satisfy 99% of users. But what do I know :noexpression:
Devrim Posted October 28, 2013 Posted October 28, 2013 You're so damn right Mogster. It would be the best the best best of the best module ever! I don't like to keep my expectations very low altitude, but -as you said- even Lock On level model would enough for me. :) Intel i7-14700@5.6GHz | MSI RTX4080 SuperSuprimX | Corsair V. 64GB@6400MHz. | Samsung 1TB 990 PRO SSD (Win10Homex64) Samsung G5 32" + Samsung 18" + 2x8"TFT Displays | TM Warthog Stick w/AVA Base | VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle | TM MFD Cougars | Logitech G13, G230, G510, PZ55 & Farming Sim Panel | TIR5 & M.Quest3 VR >>MY MODS<< | Discord: Devrim#1068

The shoulder ranks look like Russian Air Force but I don't really know right? I guess they are russian..what I can say for sure is, that the Pilot is a "Captain":) My Specs: I don`t care..it is a Computer..a black one..
press Posted October 29, 2013 Posted October 29, 2013 Can someone tell me who they fly for and where was the video taken? The shoulder ranks look like Russian Air Force but I don't really know right? They fly for the Ministry of Emergency Situations - MChS.
