DCS: Mi-24P | by the book | vertical landing IGE
Short video about the correct technique for a vertical landing in ground effect (IGE) in the Mi-24P. All according to the manual. Some questions and answers below:
Q. When is a vertical landing IGE recommended?
A. You can consider it to be the standard technique. It keeps your speed up at about 40kph until you reach ground effect and an air cushion builds below the helicopter. This way, you require less power for your landing. However, if conditions are hot and high - or if the helicopter is loaded to it's maximum weight, then a running landing is recommended.
If there are close-in obstacles on approach, a vertical landing "out of ground effect" (OGE) must be flown.
Q. What are the main poin...

Short video about the correct technique for a running landing in the Mi-24P. All according to the manual. Some questions and answers below: Q. So - why are running landings done in the first place? A. It requires less engine power.

    hello. I am making a flight stick following your video. I encounter difficulties when I connect to the PC, when testing buttons. Nothing is working properly. All connections have been checked several times. I watched the video several times, I don't think I missed anything. When I test the wires, at the output of the card, I find a connection between the blue and green wires. Did I burn a component? Can you help me?

    Hey Viktor, i need your advise. i´m currently relearning and enjoying the mi24. unfortunatly my cross on my map does not move. it never moves, no matter what i try. i do the alignment by pressing the sync button, holding it for few seconds, 3 minutes after powering on the system and it is also set to MAG. It worked back days when the mi24 was ea-released, but now it wont work anymore. what else can be the issue with the non moving cross on the map? cant find anything in forums or by search. maybe you can help me out. do more videos!!

    Hello again Victor! Just a quick question please…. My stick is still going strong 👍. Have you ever tried adding more resistors to the board? Would adding another to each stack strengthen the ffb effect? I could not IL2 without my ffb stick ❤ Thanks

    I'm reasonably certain that the paper moving map shown at 4:25 is just made by Decca and driven by a doppler radar system - the moving maps that used the Decca Navigator system (with the red/green/purple pairs of stations, no radar in the aircraft, just a passive radio receiver) used a very different and interestingly distorted projection.

    Hello again! I’m having another go at soldering resistors after picking up a spare ffb2 to fall back on if it goes bad. I soldered yesterday and it went well and neatly (using fine tip iron and magnifying glasses - much easier) All working fine apart from squealing noise when stick pushed forwards, left / right and back all good. I know this means that one of the resistors is poorly soldered / fitted but which one? Do you know which resistor corresponds to each input movement on the stick please? Thanks 👍

    Hello Viktor, I made a Force Feedback modified following that video. I have just a problem cause the force feedback is not working, I don't understand something. Everything is working well (forces and buttons in the grip). I have connected the grey and white cables for the switch which activate the motors. But you speak about cables violet, black and dark red which we can cut. I found the purple, the black, but which one is the dark red ? On your video, I can see the purple and the black cut, but not the dark red. Then I saw two large cables red and black which are terminated by a (visibly) unconnected connector, is it these ones ? If necessary, I can send you photos if you can help (I need an email). Thanks for your tutorial, Marc

  • @Eddy3443
    @Eddy3443 3 года назад

    So the buttons work, there's contact on the board (multimeter beeps), but won't work when I plug it in :( I tried it with that connection "using the silver wire" part, I even used a regular wire, tried it without it, nothing seems to work as far as buttons go

    i use a modified microsoft ffb 2 stick with extended carbon tube for long cyclic grip and attached a thrustmaster topgun grip for the huey and typical helicopter cyclic look. I use sim ffb for dampener effect and I use virpil pedals with spring removed. I can't wait to get a collective to finish the thing off.

  • @Crysinator
    @Crysinator 3 года назад

    I have a question about helicopter flight in general: Is a coordinated flight (centered ball) or minimal drift angle more important? I can't seem to have both under normal weather conditions and at crusing speed and altitude.

    • @virtualflighttraining9694
      @virtualflighttraining9694 3 года назад

      Hi Timo! I have not yet found a right or wrong here. But the Russian manuals lean towards "ball centered". Drift is a big issue on the Mi-8 and much less on the Mi-24, because of the fuselage / tail geometry and aerodynamics.

      Thats the directional straight and the other one is the aerodynamical straight. If you fly straight and in your direction at your course everything is fine but expect the drift. Generelly they flex the "straight" means it must not always centered
