BaD CrC Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Black Shark Den was able to rent a real 1968 UH-1H Huey for a flight and spend the day harassing the veterans pilots and mechanics of the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation with questions about this aircraft vs what we knew from the DCS module. We put together some of the videos we shot this day for you guys to benefit from some of the insight we got from the awesome day. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebabil Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 An UH-1 packed with 9 people, Almost full fuel 110 kts speed in these conditions and EGT is only 540... Maybe ED should take another look into performance values of its huey?

ZMEY-HS- Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 110 kts speed in these conditions and EGT is only 540... Well, this few seconds of dashboard still doesn't provide a good picture.:( On 27:46 you can see 110 kts but vertical speed is -15, few seconds later 27:49 it is only 70kts, 540 egt, vertical speed is around +1 and different altitude. Seems like 2 different moments. 70kts is what we can get right now without egt over limit, but what we can see for sure is egt and torque are still way off compared to real one.

Baz000 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 This was an awesome video and I would love to see more like this for even more aircraft in DCS. It just goes to show you have stuff in the sim is so close to the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory103 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Great video and just joined as a volunteer hoping to get some stick time (former Army aviator) eventually. Best way to narrow the gap between RW and the sim, visit the actual aircraft! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miro Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 (edited) Also real one has no external hardpoinnts, no IR suppressors, no countermeasures, no slingload mechanism, no pilot/co pilot sights. This can give extra space for fuel. Tried last time take 12 ppl, with hardpoints, IR suppressors in DCS, 50% fuel, and my EGT riser over limit only for takeoff and landing time.

civilizedAustin Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 A pleasure to watch! I wonder if the gentlemen from the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation were at all aware of Belsimtek's sim prior to meeting with you guys. And if they weren't, it would be very interesting to see one of them trying it out for the first time and giving first impressions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidtfire Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 From what I know, the performance and EGT issues has been acknowledged by BST and they are working on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramsay Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 Kindly, where did you get this info? Surely you jest :lol: after pages of debate and player feedback to BST ? • BST feedback: 24th Jan 2018 Thank you guys for being involved! Our helicopter department specialists have an idea about what needs to be done for EGT tuning. We would need to adjust changes after new DCS version will release, and so you would be able to try it as well. We will make announcement when changes will hit openbeta, and we think we will do same format and listen what you will say, like we did here in this thread. Team developed solution which will include tune regarding torque and temperature. As soon as programmers will implement it it will go for patch. Also task was created for fixing gauge green zone. 5th April 2018 The fix implementation taking more time that we would want, but Huey engine needs some considerable changes for this new solution to be in place. We jumped on our engine programmers with this while they were in the middle of F/A-18C project, so now they are split between two tasks and not going really fast. We hope, that when F-18C will go early access, patch for Huey engine will also be close to completion. 15th June 2018 now we update our work for fixes this issues (F-18C gave us some freedom) https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3434511&postcount=3 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=196588 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=199483 etc., etc. i9 9900K @4.7GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 10 Pro x64, 1920X1080 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaD CrC Posted July 31, 2018 Author Share Posted July 31, 2018 They were not. But we told them before coming what we were into and I had my Razer Blade laptop with me. I was able to show them for 10 minutes BST UH-1H. Only problem is that I was lacking my controls and other cockpit parts, so it was pretty much just a show of inside and outside the virtual aircraft. They are looking on the other hand at using some of those old cockpits you saw on the video to eventually build some sim that they can bring to airshows and asked us for our insight and recommendations (of course DCS) as well as how to interface with real controls. We are keeping in touch for that. https://www.blacksharkden.com http://discord.gg/blacksharkden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slap_Chop Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Way cool !! Thanks for the video guys. I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy and I've had both. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
