Capt Zeen MI-8MTV2 Helios Profile ! ! !


Recommended Posts

Hello all !

 

At least! i finished it !

 

DCS 1.5 and DCS 1.2.16 Compatible

 

Several month ago, I start the project, width the goal to make a profile for MI-8, width full cockpit implementation, instruments, lamps, switches, and everything syncronized between Helios and DCS.

The big problems for that was the lack of interfaces in Helios. At the moment, Helios only support A10C, KA50, and a simplified FC interface, so, implement new aircrafts is not easy.

 

My first idea was to create a MI-8 interface for Helios, giving support to that helo, but thats means learn how interfaces works in Helios, and then create a new compilation of the program, and for that i need support from Gadroc.

So, my final solution was to send all the data from the cockpit across the FC interface. Thats solve the input side in Helios, and the output part was solved creating a complete keyboard configuration, prepared to work from Helios.

 

The resoult is a fully functional MI-8 profile, width all the data from the cockpit and full clickable and syncronized from Helios. In other words, same funtionality as KA50 and A10C profiles.

 

This time, i created, aswell, a program to convert the profiles to diferent international keyboards. Now this operation only take me some seconds, before this taked me days! So for this one you have ENGLISH, FRENCH, SPANISH, ITALIAN, GERMAN and for the first time, RUSSIAN keyboards !

 

 

I implemented, too, all the new improvement Belsintec did on the MI-8 for DCS 1.5

 

for this profile i exported all the instruments, lamps, selectors, switches and levers in the cockpit, the collective and the rotor brake.

 

Of course i added the navigation panel from others profiles, so you can check airport charts, tactical maps, ndbs, etc

 

 

Hope you like it !

After the last 1.5 update, the profile for mi-8 didn't work anymore. I looked in to it and I find the culprit in "Right Pitot Heater Test Button - Push to test" command line (it is actually the very last line!!! megalol.gif). I tried to find the problem/conflict but I didn't find anything wrong. Please look in to it to, maybe you'll find something. Every thing else is working perfect.

I just updated the 1.5 to the last version and everything is working fine on the profile.

What exactly dont work on your configuration?

 

I notice there are new operative switches on the cockpit. i am going to implement those aswell.

The 'multi DCS module' purpose of my touch screen configuration is finally making sense thanks to you captain Zeen! Thank you so much. I can switch from Ka50 to Mi-8 effortlessly with a full cockpit for each without restarting DCS or even leaving the on going mission. I am living the dream!
