Black Shark 2 is out!

Right, few things that aren't in that list;

- completely redone sounds for the rotor. Sounds far more authentic, especially in-cockpit. Everything at that, not just rotors.
- revamped sound-engine. Seems the positioning of sources is better, nice for those surround sound lovers.
- revamped flight model. Needing a lot more rudder, and collective is more sluggish with a heavy bird.
- wind seems to have far more impact on flight, so I'm guessing the overal physics were tweaked as well.
- avionics have been tweaked. For example, the standby SAI centers a lot quicker and the gearbox takes considerably longer to heat up, making doing a warmup before take-off a good idea.
- Shkval display is "different"... my usual settings for brightness and contrast are completely useless.

It's all very familiar but still I need to get used to it all over again. More than copy-paste a Shark into the A-10 engine.

* oh right;
- authorisation is more forgiving. Didn't need to line up a Vikhr as precisely as normally.
