starting...

starting

hovering

on way to target.

water effects are great.

approaching fireing range.

A succesfull landing using auto-rotation, after losing engine power.

Succesfull as in: I survived.

I hate Apaches...

So very, very much.

Task Force · 07-31-09, 08:43 PM

hmm... I guess they will be haveing burnt arclight for dinner.

Arclight · 07-31-09, 09:02 PM

Arclight flambé, yum.

Barely 'nough meat on ma bones to feed the 2 of them. :rotfl:

Was weird though: not much damage to the Kamov, but I was killed on impact. Helo was trimmed for hover pretty well, so it just kinda slowly drifted down untill it exploded after a while.

Weird to still see it flying, knowing the pilot is long dead.

GOST CHOPPA!!! run for yer lifes.

Highbury · 08-01-09, 10:10 PM

I gotta order Black Shark, that just looks too good. ROF convinced me to get a new PC, it will be ready Wednesday.. maybe then

Biggles · 08-03-09, 12:41 PM

Aye, this I like.

Arclight · 08-03-09, 12:46 PM

Very nice, though I'm not sure I can still live without an autopilot. :rotfl:

Task Force · 08-03-09, 12:47 PM

autopilot is a nice luxury...

Oh but there is one! I use it all the time!

:rotfl: That and time altering. Me like^^

Arclight · 08-04-09, 03:35 AM

Ah, that's cheating! Far as I know, those planes didn't even have trim.

I must say I'm pretty interested in it, but I figure you'd really need TrackIR. Just to darn difficult keeping an eye on an enemy in a dogfight without it.

Think one could have a decent experience without TIR?

I know I have. Just use the mouse to look around.

Arclight · 08-05-09, 04:05 AM

Yeah, I can get away with it in DCS, so why not...

Though in DCS I spend considerable time in a hover; trying to look while flying is a pita.

I'll put it on the "maybe" list, anything on that usually becomes a "definitely" after a month or two anyway. :rotfl:

Task Force · 08-05-09, 01:21 PM

Hello american... just try to shoot me down...

Schroeder · 08-05-09, 01:33 PM

Hmmm, the cockpit of the F6 is open which leads to the assumption that the American is already in his "I want to land and ignore everything else" mode.

BTW Your Zero has no markings which is a violation of international law. Even if you should survive the battles at the end you will be hung as a war criminal. But don't let that distract you from your missions to come.
