Nemeth Designs Aerospatiale SA2 Samson released

I just wish there was an "easystart" option. Should have known better following the purchase of another Nemeth bird. I have absolutely no interest in going through complex start up precedures on a mythical heli - If I want that sort of realism, I'll go back to the Dodo or Cera birds. :mad: :angryfir:

Totally agree! Was hoping ND would step away from their concept for a totally fictional rotorcraft.
 
The fact that Ryan has been completely silent is strange. Not announcing it on the ND website is even stranger. Is it possible that it is not really an ND product but a scam?

allcott, jeansy;

I am a pay'd Beta-tester in this subject! I purchased the bird, and i feel i'm Beta-testing it ever since, due to the fact that i have not been able to fly the chopper straight for 10 minutes. Great you fooks have your discussion here, but let's keep it to topic; The experiences with the Aerospatiale SA-2 Samson! :a1451: :monkies:


Anyone else have troubles with this rotorcraft, and anyone else have trouble to find the support forum for this particular bird???

Click on the link in the first post, click on the link marked Forum/FAQ. Couldn't really be that much simpler. Except there is no mention of it there. At all. And no mention on the front page of the website either.

Worry.

That's the place i went in the first place, so....not that simple really!

I have e-mailed the given e-mailadress. I'll wait and see.

That assumption is highly unlikely
 
Granted but, people have real lives to live in this world. Things happen beyond our control that need to be dealt with. For now, I (my opinion) would leave this subject alone.
 
I have not been following Nemeth for that long. Is it usual for them to start sell product through distribution days before announcing it on there web page?

In Ryan's defence, he is a cop in real life and as a fellow shift worker, there are times where the computer is the last thing on your mind when you get home or at work
 
Get the pot boiling then turn off the heat? I don't get it. What kind of point were you trying to make when you started this topic Jeansy? Maybe you should stay off the computer if your shoulder bothers you that bad that you can't maintain civility.

Ahum.....guy's.....

Back to topic please.......remember.....the chopper?

Like to read about other people's experiences and troubleshooting regarding the SA2 Samson, not to see this thread closed due to a quarrel regarding something else.

:jump:
 
my flame is the selection process for some and execution , ive seen around the traps the people who kiss @ss or fly with someone online with next to no experience in any form of development getting the role i can think of several names right now i can name within a few companies

which leads me on to the next point, these guys have no experience in any form, and little experience with FS as i made mention in first post which everyone seemed to have missed these guys are pointless and the ones im targeting including this company

for example its like getting a person just got their learner drivers licenses to help final trials of a high performance car

once again my posts have been miss read and everyone has piped up, it was these guys and the people who elect them im pointing the finger at, not the guys who have been doing a good job, And addition to that i was asking developers to take greater care in the selection process

after all my purchases over the yrs from ND i have seen a dramatic decline in quality and most could have been resolved if betas did their jobs( but some of them have no idea on what theyre doing) not the end user after purchase to find the bugs

i suggest you re read my posts

I wasnt having dig at Ryan himself, i have no problem with him as i know personally,

i was have a dig at the development process for the team that he works with and other companies who take a half @ss approach to beta testing and selecting any one who put their hands up regardless of experience
 
The drugs are seriously affecting you. Where, do you think, do you obtain experienced beta testers from with hands on experience of a product that doesn't exist from a world that doesn't exist...?

I'd suggest you go lie down till the drugs wear off!:wavey:

The only fault with a beta test team lies with the developer for failing to manage them properly. Enthusiasm and Ability don't always go hand-in-hand, but if you don't have BOTH the product is subs-standard after the testing stage, if enthusiast and expert are not handled correctly.

Its ALWAYS the developers fault, not the unpaid beta testers.


If there were Beta Testers, they never flew this model for more than a few minutes. It's just about unflyable IMO. Of course SimMarket has a buy at your own risk policy. Which I did. What's interesting is that the download indicated Beta 2 in the header. So perhaps this is not final?
 
Ok, i cant speak about its flyability as i'm not a chopper person. i was able to fly it kinda.. its very weird to be looking at the ground whule your going forward.. guess thats just choppers thoug.. Addressing the cockpit winfoe fog.. theres a switch on the overhead for cockpit deicing. u believe that needs to be turned on to avoid the foggong problem. Getting to the ovehead panel however was a bit of an adventure in exploration through views..
The craft doesnt know if its an airplane or chopper. it doesnt like to fly as either, and to me, it seems tail heavy.
Forward speed seems to max out at around 160 but this is with the nose pointed almost directly at the ground..
Over all, this could be a fun craft to fly, but for me, it will simply remain an oddity. i certainly wouldnt recommend it to other airplane people wanting to dabble in helicopters..
