Mi-8MTV2 News

[jimcarrel]

I used to have a hobby that I loved, it got to being too expensive for me, so the inevitable was to move on and quit griping about it. Made life a lot simpler.

 

It is true that the Hip doesn't need the new navigation tool.

[Alpenwolf]

@ Belsimtek: Is there a manual for the new navigation system?

Same place as usual: "\DCSWorld\Mods\aircraft\NS430\Doc" also you can probably use RL/other Sim tutorials, there will probably be only minor differences.

[Knock-Knock]

Dont know if these are of use?

I buy a module and now needs to purchase single systems for $ 15. What is the next? No thanks!

 

This System is Not part of the Mi-8MTV2, Nor is it Specific to the Mi-8,

 

This System, In Real Life, is a Aftermarket Purchased Addon.

 

This System in other Simulation Platforms, costs 49.99, 64.95 and 149.99

[Alpenwolf]

I suppose we can use this navigation system in the Mi-24P? Please say yes :)

[Cibit]

I wonder does anyone know how long the flight engineer moves seat during sling load operations?

[Simicro]

I like classic navigation with the Mi-8 so I won't buy this addon. But happy it is available for those who were waiting for it.

Right, however for the price, in Flight Simulator you can use the GPS in virtually any aircraft you want.

 

Here, for DCS, as I understand, that GPS is only for the Mi-8.

...Here, for DCS, as I understand, that GPS is only for the Mi-8.

Too early to say that. Not "only" for Mi-8.

 

It's a module. You can use it with any module that supports it. Let's wait and see.

I think we should think twice. :D

Feature added about 3-4 updates ago

[alfredo_laredo]

Seems to be broken in English in 2.1

 

If you switch the Avionics Language to "Native", it works just fine... but only in Russian. :noexpression:

 

Any ETA on English lenguage?

just set your country apart from russia then you will be fine

feature only works in Russian currently... Not in English and no news about it being made to be in English yet.

you are wrong its already working just select your country USA from mission editor

[Vernibob]

Is the GPS even worth it i thoght that the Doppler worked great!

[edineygomes]

you are wrong its already working just select your country USA from mission editor

 

Even so the audio is in Russian. which options did you select?

[Baz000]

you are wrong its already working just select your country USA from mission editor

 

i'm talking about when you set avionics language in the in game settings options panel... You can choose native or English, when you choose native everything works fine... When you choose English you can't get your crew reading your checklists off to you

looks superb that video with the head on MI-8 silhouette sat squat on the road, tooled and hot to trot.

Superb machine.

[foxbat155]

Well, you little over-interpreting that video. In Soviet Union ( and now in many post SU countries ) this was part of normal crew training program. Flights without fancy navigation aids ( dopplers, ARK's, RSBN's ) were important part. During those flights was forbidden use electronic aids, only maps, eyes and public road network. That's why you can see so many videos from former SU area with military aircrafts and helicopters flying along roads. And when during that training you lost orientation, then you have to find way to get info were are you now. Who knows roads best? TIR drivers!.

[AlexandrT]

Loads corrected.

 

Loads corrected.

 

The teams operate normally, the beam does not break at normal loads.

 

Confirm the normal operation of commands on video.

 

Hanging over the place of packing-showing the work of the teams, so I'm asking you not to throw stones at me for the long process of laying. : cry:

 

Laying goes to the black tire with a flag. Stacking exclusively on commands, without the use of an indicator.

 

Result-commands allow accurate packing of cargo.

 

The logic of work has been changed somewhat, now, after the separation of cargo, the height of the load from the ground to 20 m is dictated.

 

 

 

 

Multi-crew in WIP, first for UH-1H.

He says as he puts the cargo precisely on target faster than I ever managed...

[Rogue Trooper]

Yes, cargo delivery was spot on to the millimetre.

[Esac_mirmidon]

Great news. Sling loads are a very important part of the Mi-8, im glad to see that corrected.

[Looney]

Great stuff! Thank you!
