    The thumbnail had me thinking it was real. We had some in central texas to about 2011-2012 when they shut down the program we had. They were amazing little helo's

    My dad was among the first to work on these back in the day. He absolutely loved them.

    i've been LOVING the Kiowa. So far have only flown it single seat, but it has been an absolute blast flying with my buddies in Apache's

    On the back panel, on the last row of the ceiling mounted breakers there is one that say "AIR" on a white sticker, in the middle of that last row before ceiling breakers goes to back wall breakers, that will disable the Airbags. They are cool but can ruin your day sometimes... ;)

      It's more a 407 than a 206.

    • @pootmahgoots8482
      @pootmahgoots8482 5 месяцев назад

      @clutchtucker the 407 is a 4 bladed, stretched version of the 406 which was basically a 206 with quad main rotor blades. OH-58A was the 206 ("2" meaning it has 2 main rotor blades) and as the aircraft was upgraded through time it eventually ended up as a fancier militarized version of the 407.

    • @CWLemoine
      @CWLemoine  5 месяцев назад +9

      The DCS version (OH-58D) is more 407. The early version (that's used a lot in law enforcement now) is a 206.

    Commenting as the video was just uploaded, but can someone please show Lemoine Falcon BMS and it's dash-34 manual?
    Don't let the slightly worse graphics fool you, the complexity of the flight model and systems simulated far outweight DCS's one.
    Would be awesome to have a real fighter pilot feedback on that.

    I want to see Mover vs Gonky in VTOL VR. It is simple but good and there arent a ton of key binds to confuse the situation. Just the standard vr controllers work very well and you can use pedals of you want.

    Speaking of Close Air Support, can you please react on the Broken Arrow scene in We Were Soldiers? There are a lot of interesting aircraft and comms that I think you could enlighten us more of, like the bombs they used, if the strafing effects were accurate...etc. More power sir!

    Just started learning helicopters in DCS and wondering: how do I stop it quickly from flying forward to zero - without loosing or gaining altitude? Thanks for the video.

      Lower collective, right pedal, smoothly pull back on cyclic.

    Sadly, in my humble opinion, the asking price for this is simply too much at £58 UKP. If it was £30, I'd be flying it now. Shame.

      @williamswallows6909 5 месяцев назад

      I would disagree. As a proud owner of this module, as well as many other modules, this is the best one I own. Professionally developed, full assed as opposed to other modules getting updates every month for features developers didn’t include in the original released product. Your opinion is yours, and I respect that, but I have found it to be worth every dollar…
