@TsDomain err why counter rotative? that copter has 2 rotors; running opposite directions; to counter the gyro effect you would have in a normal copter. Now; you still need some serious horsepower and structure (the G's could just rip the rotors out lol) to accomplish a loop in a chopper... that thing is a beast.
The biggest problem with counter rotative rotors is that in high G manoeuver, the lower rotor blades can lift enough to reach the upper rotor blades and in that case, as they rotate in different directions, they can destroy each other. And above a certain speed (around 300 km/h in calm and average temperature air), it's the same, the lowest rotor can get high enough to reach the uppest rotor.
At 4:18 the clouds look beeeaauuutiful. I don't know if they're a mod or what, but boy do I wish i had clouds like that. Probably just Some of Amraam's fancy effects...
man, I'm going to love it when DCS makes an AH-64 game off of this engine. from what i read it should be out with in 9 months! along with an a-10 game.
It should be within four months from now. Eagle Dynamics is planning on a 9-month release interval per module. The A-10C module will be built to the same quality of the Black Shark. So yes, it will have the same style of cockpit controls.
You expect the A-10c to be out in 4 months time? We haven't even started testing it yet, because ED wants to release the Black Shark patch/update first.
All I had to go on was the 9-month schedule. I don't check their forums or website often enough to get a strong idea of when the next module will be. You seem to be in good relations with Eagle Dynamics, In what time frame do you suspect the A-10C module be released?
Well, there's no specific date, but i would bet sometime during 2010. Maybe next summer, if all goes well. :) But as always, nothing can be set in stone regarding the release.
Really? I always heard the plans were for an A-10 and an AH-64, then unknown from there. I've been out of the loop for a long time, though. so maybe they decided to do some cancelling? I remember seeing some pretty nice cockpit shots for both the Apache and Hawg, though.
During the installation process it asks you if you want realistic or arcade mode. Arcade mode is like something you would expect on the Xbox or something where you could use the Xbox game controller.
its called blade flapping, its a natural movement of the blades on all rotary systems. Blade Flapping is the up and down movement of a rotor blade, which, in conjunction with cyclic feathering, causes Dissymmetry of Lift to be eliminated. The blade flaps (or climbs) upward, and the change in relative wind and angle of attack reduces the amount that would have been generated.
Because your 2 rotors advance in opposite ways. So, at a certain helicopter speedn on the lowest rotor, the advancing blade got a lot of velocity (it's own velocity added to the chopper's velocity), so more lift. On the other hand, the blade in the same position on the upper rotor is going backward, so it has it's own velocity minus the chopper velocity, and less lift. And at a certain point, the lowest rotor blade lift enough to reach the "almost non lifting" upper rotor blade.
Ive been searching for a good helo sim for a while, but even though i dont like russia to much im still getting the game. I wish they would come out with a AH-1w helo sim.
Hi Ferrari, I just bought the download a week ago and I am still learning about it but I can say that it is fantastic and the level of detail is incredible. Be prepared to spend a lot of time on it in full "simulation" mode though if you are not familiar with helicoptor aerdynamics and physics (like me, usually go for WWII taildragger sims) but you will get there. Trim is VITALLY important. Trim is your friend. DCS are releasing an Apache module too in future, as well as the A-10 "warthog" :)
This is going to be the definitive simulator of -if not the best- the coolest attack helicopter in the world. And the first of many more, I hope. Can't wait!
You feel bad about killing americans in video games but it's ok to kill others? First of all it's a video game it's ok to kill anyone. In real life ITS NOT okey to kill ANYONE no matter were they're from.
Agreed. I don't suppose Russians feel too good about being the "bad guys" in recent games like Bad Company 2 and Modern Warfare 2, where they get killed by the droves.
its not a game. And no ofcourse it isnt free. Wouldnt think some devs works their ass off to bring you a 95% realistic simulator just to give it away.
You're right its a good thing. Its been a while since a game was distributed without the details being looked over, maybe never, but you can't help feel anticipation after reading what this game is capable of as a sim, and amraam did make these vids after all. So its his fault;)
Yea, GA owes me a couple pants ive creamed while viewing his vids...theres another pair. lol amazing vids, will be an AMAZING sim, its so close to completion, they are doing mostly the manual and stuff now yay =D
How much could you possible need? There isn't that much data about infantry: position, orientation, weapon, health and maybe some AI states. That's a most a few bytes per guy.
It might be a bit heavy on the graphic card, but then again they are probably only rendered in full detail when you're very close.
2 proppellers, good idea. the tail proppeler is for the tourque effect of the main propeller and if you use another propeller, there won't be a tourque effect and you won't need to use the tail propeller.
From an engineering point of view, though, it is really bad. Sine more moving parts generally equals more possibilities of failure. But congratulations to Kamov for pulling this type of rotor configuration once more (It's not a prop, it's a rotor).
I don't think looking cool is what they had at the top of their priorities in the first place ;) I think it looks freaking menacing myself. And as for the counter rotating rotors, they do this in model helicopters and they work like a charm, so why they cant make it work on a larger scale is beyond me. I know small scale is a different issue, just saying. :)
also, it means that all the engines power is going to the rotor, to provide lift. unlike a conventional helicopter in which some of the engines powere is sapped by the tail rotor, to sot the fuselage spinning.
