How many other prototypes, let alone heavy bombers, we're rolled on take off at airshows?
Oberon - she's at Manston next Saturday, no rolls but just to hear her is enough to make every hair stand on end. Plans are going well for a further two seasons after this but money is always an issue.

Not sure if I've posted this before, but salvaged this from my Google Video account:
F35 vs. J10 Battlefield 2 dogfight: (Me in F35 vs. random pub in J10) Who hasnt played BF2: J10 could evade missiles by simply turning hard, but I got lucky this time. Too bad I lost my air-to-air kills BF2 vid, that was pretty cool. ![]() Love that game! Last edited by Dowly; 08-09-13 at 01:08 PM. |

Here's my channel. Most of my videos are Rise of Flight and IL2 Cliffs of Dover.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnY...wihpdFGMWn7Ysw I've got a new video (probably my most explosive) uploading while I post ![]()

Another gem from Ralfi.
Contains some swearing: His 'ships and giggles' (my edit) videos are worth checking out too. |

![]() ![]() If the Huey's a-rocking, don't come knocking. Edit - and as for your air taxi and landing - are you certain that's you? No damage, not even a scrape of the concrete!

Shows how bad idea it is to start thinking of something else ("Mmm... should go and buy some beer for tonight..."
as you are landing. ![]() Quote:
![]() It's actually not so hard after awhile. Just need to remember to give more power as the shaking starts. What I had difficulties when I started was the fact that it feels like you are going down no matter how much collective you give, so I gave too much collective. But once you get down low enough and the ground effect kicks in, it stops your descend and leaves you to a hover. ![]() Now, I just need to learn to hit something from a distance with the weapons and I'm all set! ![]() EDIT: Those with X52 (no idea if it's the same for the pro version), on landing, I find that when the shaking starts, raising the physical X52 collective to the farthest "notch" (when it feels a bit stiffer) before 100% is enough to stop the descend enough for the ground effect to catch you. Guess it's about 75-80% or something. ![]() Last edited by Dowly; 09-20-13 at 11:45 AM. |

The wonky thing there is that I use the same amount of collective for cruise. Really used to using a lot less collective in flight from the Ka-50, pretty big switch flying the Huey.

Of course it depends of your loadout, but without weapons, I use about 50% and
just trim it so that it kinda keeps the altitude. I won't even try to trim it so that I can just fly without touching the stick or collective. I just try to get it "close enough" and adjust when needed. |

Remember the video where I showed how well the KA-50 can fly without rudder?
Here's another one, this time without the whole tail section. PS. Fix your Kamov, ED! ![]() |

Hi folks - vid for you -
I know it's not a flight sim, but this is the real-life version of what I do in every DCS helicopter. And Take On. And Arma. ![]()

Actually, I don't think I'd have gone over the pylons or the bridge.
Cue - clip, spin, crash, burny, die, figure out how to start her up again on the pan 80 miles away from where I want to be. ![]()
