Great looking paint Matt, well done once again.

I have just flown this bird and for those that are asking about FPS, they are very good indeed.

I have my sim locked at 40fps and no problems at all with frames at any stage.

The level of detail is stunning in and outside the model.

Well worth it imho.

Cheers.
 
Can someone tell me please how i can open the ramp doors - try every trick and key-combination without luck :isadizzy:

Edit: Found it - a bit tricky but works nice:jump:
 
Some are reporting stutters while kicking up a dust cloud. I always got some hiccups from dust/water clouds so I can imagine hover in one with a high detail model will have your computer grunting.

I am close to buying but to be honest doubt I would fly it much. I still have 4 addons bought recently I have barely even flown.
 
I have been looking forward to this helo for a very long time. I really like it...flies great and looks great. The VC is excellent. But the pilots in the external view look like a couple of kids at an airshow allowed to put on pilots' helmets and sit in the cockpit. Minor complaint...well worth the cost.

I know you say you found it, but just to re-iterate for those that don't know I will elaborate. On the lower right corner of the overhead console is the hydraulics control panel. You need to turn the 2 hyd switches to on, in the center of the 2 red covers flip the switch full forward to EMER, open the right cover and then move the switch for ramp up/down.

Thanks for the comments thus far! I certaintly have had fun flying the chopper myself. Is nice not always having to think about giving counter-torque since the Chinook has the counter rotating rotors. It has made helo flying fun again for me! Think I have just spent to much time doing barrel rolls and loops with fighters. :icon30:
 
Well I was about to buy and download my first Orbx PNW scenery everyone raves about. Problem is that it 4 gigs and bigger when installed. I just do not have the HD space anymore. Plenty of space on ext drives but FSX alone it HUGE but add Gex,FEX and others and I am tapped out. Even moving some textures to the ext drives isn't going to help much.
I really wanted a excuse to add a good detailed scenery and do some slow and lo wing slinging.
Ive got Tongass but its really bushflying scenery. The rest are Flytampa and simular covering islands and indiv airports. I had ManhattenX loaded but it was a slide show. Just got Vegas from Aerosoft. Ok but its older looking scenery.
Where you guys flying your helis?
 
Great job jeansy, any way to put some green on those helmets? The initial "puke" green of our battalions "F" models are starting to turn more desert-ish tan.
 
Yep High, I will be doing something with those helmets

another uploading to avsim, Link on its way

Damn it looks like another argument with the lady is on the horizon....Gotta pick this up when I get back home.
 
Ok, against all odds Ive waited a few days and resisted the Impulse Buy Syndrome or I.B.S.

So whats the early buzz? Ive heard its smooth from some to the digital readouts are causing stutters.
If you dump the collective does this heli hang up there like a blimp or come down like a bus full of rocks?
Ive got alot of helis but the Dodo pretty much spoiled them for me. But this one interest me because, well I do not have it.:icon_lol:
