DCS: Ka-50 Mastering the Trimmer
Просмотров 9 тыс.2 года назад
In this, my first DCS short Tutorial, I take a shot at helping those who have been struggling to get full control of the trimmer system of this awesome Attack Helicopter.
Jesus this guy just wants to sound smart, didn't explain shit
Great explanation!
I tried all that the helicopter just flys backwards
Nice!
Love your educational videos, thank you!!
you are very good at explaining, stuff man very helpful
Ka-50 is still one of the most unkillable helicopter
Hello my Kiowa doesnt have that system 10:10, I like your start up. So much better than what Poly did for the training. Are you going to do more video tutorials of the Kiowa?
@SpearHead1011 Thanks for the support. I'm currently on hols atm and looking closely at the Chinnock on my return. I hope to do more on all the helicopters in the future and when time / commitments permit.
Excellent vid mate, well done
Good tutorial, thanks. Since the KA-50 Black Shark III in DCS is a fictional helo, that doesn't exist in the real world, could we play the Shark II? Is it obsolete or deprecated, and if so in what way? Thank you.
Hi @racingtheweb. I would not consider the Black Shark 2 to be obsolete within DCS and I've had many hours of fun flying it as I have BS3. This being said, the upgrade to the BS3 was for me, well worth it. Some even consider it to be a more realistic portrayal of this rare attack helicopter. Certainly the extra A/A outboard stations along with the upgraded / integrated ODS makes it a great purchase - plus you get the newer 3D model.
Brilliant video. The best one on the abris i have found. Your comms are very easy to follow
jesus these are the best black shark tutorials by far, good job dude
awesome
So glad you've done this video. 🍻
Your black shark tutorials are among the best available, keep it up Squawkie 👍
Хреново здесь они работают эти иглы т.к они толком и попасть то ни в кого не могут и догнать тоже. У Ми-24 Р-60М куда эффектнее!
is flight director still accurate? I trim it and the bars move but it does not hold the position. the nonFD trim works ok.
I can confirm all is well with the FD :)
You did came back! So glad!
@marcosechi8820 Apologies for the time it took!
@SquawksHead Don't worry about that, it's always nice to have new quality tutorials :D
My very first module from DCS 11 yrs or so ago! Welcome back and yea love this bird!!
Mate, your video on the FD taught me how to use it a while back. The shark has then become may main helo. I’ll make sure to recommend your videos in the future! ❤
@helldivermando That's really great to hear! Thank you!
Great video, very informative and understandable. I need to get back into the Black Shark
very helpful... i take it that if you target (use) a large building the cor-ord would be off a little... so the smaller the better or to use a corner? or doesn't it matter too much.
@FoxyRedFoxFomo glad this video helped. I think if the target was smaller you'd get more accuracy but it would be harder to locate, so there is a balance to be had between an 'obvious landmark' and the precision of the error correction that you are trying to achieve.
Very interesting, thank you
very clear tutorial mate really helped thanks.
Oooh modern Ka-50 tutorial! Yes! Sub'd immediately. Keen to find some clarity on the INU...lots of changes there and I never know if I'm doing it right.
ruclips.net/video/tABJAQzLg4k/видео.html I hope this helps :)
Omg you're back!!! Tysm for the detailed tutorial much needed
what happened ? ,you were silent for 2 years lol
Finally found some time to focus on some DCS content! I heeded the call and am glad to be back!
nice, when i m in firiing mode for missile,say if i have to go bit further and hover again how do i change from fire mode to flying or navigation.it dosent gvivng me to speed of heli in firing mode.
@earthexplorer579 I think you can press backspace or reset the targeting system to switch back to nav mode
@earthexplorer579 @shaheen47falcon nailed it! Reset button is your friend to get back to Navigation on the Hud
my guy!
Can we enter waypoints directly in the abris?
Ah, looks like one for another Video. We can indeed enter waypoints into the Abris but they will not populate the PVI-800 and so you have to add them there also. A quicker way to do this is to use the map editor to enter waypoints and they will both populate the ABRIS and the PVI-800.
Dude I just watched your PVI-800 tutorial from 2 years ago
I do hope the video helped you understand the system. This video is a deeper dive into the other functions of the device.
sooooooooo about that follow up NAV video :)
Follow up video Sir! ruclips.net/video/63fdK2UqPeA/видео.htmlsi=I9d-nmf3bVSYe8qL
@@SquawksHead you are my hero. my friends and I just got the KA50 and i personally loved the first nav vid.
Direct mode is great for low flying through valleys, AP mode is better for operating with the weapon systems, hold trim whilst you manoeuvre then let go when you're facing the way you need to be, if you want to go full evasive, turn off all the AP modes and you become ultra agile and way easy to avoid missiles with the AP turned off.
FD mode? I can't get it trimmed whenever I start from the ground.. It just flies backwards no matter what I do
@@randyreal5871 check your trim settings in special options under the KA50, and try a different trim settings, it sometimes can be a little funny on one of the settings
Great tutorial and subbed, what's multiplayer like in this game?
Thank you! Multiplayer is excellent! I am currently working on a Multiplayer Server called 'Squawks Playground' where people can just jump in and learn the aircraft I am working on plus activate a few mission types. Details will be published on Squawks playground discord (see link) in due course.
@@SquawksHead Awesome, about to order peripherals and I might be joining you for a few missions.
Let's say that I have some target coordinates. What am I supposed to do? If I enter those coordinates in the PVI-800 I won't see my target on the Abris and I won't know where the target is located on the map. This is bad. So what am I supposed to do in order to locate and destroy enemy targets, knowing their coordinates? Thx
You have to plot the coordinates directly into the ABRIS or if flying your own missions you can pre populate the ABRIS with the waypoints you created. To manually input waypoints select 'PLAN' on the ABRIS (then SELECT and UNLOAD any previously stored plan), Click DRAW (use right dial to move cursor to coords) then click ADD. Once finished plotting all points, click ADD then ENTER then PLAN then ACTIV. Be sure to make sure the ABRIS is using Decimal units as described in this video. Hope this helps :)
@@SquawksHead So, if I'm not mistaken, I have to move the cursor in the Abris all over the map untill I find the exact coordinates of my target. That's not super easy, but I'll try it. Thank you
Good to see you back Squawk 👍
You could start by putting the flag the right way up mate. Civvies...
Well spotted Sir! I shall be sure to edit the skin. Thanks and appreciated.
@@SquawksHead My pleasure. Someones gotta keep you right. ;) Ex 2 Para 74-97. ;)
Could you pls make more Ka-50 tutorial videos they are very helpful thx!!!
Thank you, I appreciate your comment. I hope to get back to making videos before long and having more of an online presence for DCS and other games I enjoy. Streaming set up needs some work but hope to be back soon. In the mean time, Fly safe
No follow up video?
Working on it :)
I finally got around to it. Please see my PVI 800 Advanced Tutorial along with the 'fixing the INU' video. Hope they help.
@@SquawksHead Awesome! Best KA-50 tutorials on youtube by far!
I found hovering in the KA-50 extremely easy after using the Apache exclusivity (Apache was my first module). Thanks for creating & uploading.
Excellent video (also the other two that you've made! ) Are you still around YT? Hoping you make more for the KA-50, you have a definite talent for giving instructions!
Thank you, that's really very kind. I do intend to return to RUclips at some point in the not so distant future and when time permits.
I know now how to choose fx1 fx2 etcetc for inu fixing before flyover (or skval fixing) the nav system. BUT in missions there are separate fx1 in attack zone and BEFORE that fx1 there is an airfield named fxpoitn (was it fxU5GL, point is airfield code instead of fx + number) . How do I choose that airfield named fixpoint to flyover? ("FIXPNT" button + what?, like with fx1 it would be FIXPNT button + 1 (like in here). But how do i choose that first one on the track named fxUG5L ? Confused.
Pls, make video about abris
Man this video was so helpful, please make more man! you got a talent
Excellent video- keen for more on the Ka-50. :)
Super helpful, thank you!
Great video. I was struggling with transition to hover but this definitely helped me. Thank you for your help.
Simple and effective. Wonderful video.
Your really good at teaching these mechanics, can you make more videos?
Thank you. I finally got around to it! Hope you are still enjoying the Black Shark.
Complete game changer. I had about 7 hours in the Hokum but was struggling with it. This thing makes the Hind feel like a clumsy and top heavy flying armored school bus. This thing is like the helicopter equivalent of a nimble ninja assassin. Seriously, helpful. Thank you! So, this is how the aircraft is able to fly sideways, I assume. That is to say, it can fly “forwards” while facing 9 O’clock or 3 O’clock. I saw a demonstration of the real aircraft on YT. It was in Russian but had subtitles. The camera man and commentator where flying in an Mi-8 while the Ka50 kept up with it but was FACING it! Lol. I’ve read that this thing is meant to go out, stay low and kill enemy helicopters, act as recon and cause chaos for the enemy’s forward ground units. Little by little, I’m getting a better understanding of how it does that through your videos Edit/Update: I love this!! I’m a helo ninja assassin! I can use the tree lines and buildings to sneak around and pop out with my 30mm Shipunov. Great fun.
I'm just now starting to learn the Ka50 and totally loving it. I have some experience with helo's in MSFS and the autopilot trimmer on the H145 Airbus helicopter operates pretty much the same way and =)
