Thank you! I’ll try to make something similar in the future too :)

Thanks for the feedback! 😊Please check my other videos in my channel iff you want to see how this helicopter is flown in the simulator. I have also downloadable checklist for the helicopter with tutorial video in my channel.

@@msinerva80 Will do! Thank you!

The after edit (trying to dig the dark areas to show them better) made the video also a bit too vivid 😁

Thanks for the feedback 😊 Please check my other videos too if you winsh. I have few tutorials where I tell how to fly theH145 simulator like a real one.

Really nice to hear that you liked 🤩 I recognize you from Instagram too 😊 This H145 is totally awesome helicopter to work with. I wish just that my 360-camera would have captured the dark areas more accurately too. Now they’re really grainy.

Yeah, it is a really nice video! 😄 What cool that you recognize me from Instagram, I checked and indeed I follow you 😜 It is indeed one nice helicopter, I did not work with it yet but I hope maybe in the far future. Wow you did this with an 360 camera? Sounds great! Maybe it can changed in the options, just an idea, I don’t know if it will work 😆

@@lilianahendrickx1692 I've also got a basic optics module for the camera but it wouldn't see all of the switches same time so had to do with 360 and do some digital zooming in afterwards :)

Thanks a lot!

Thanks! I fly MSFS20 too and likento perform all like with the real helicopter 🤩 Have you seen my MSFS-videos on my YT-account? There is few HEMS-missions flewn with the sim. Hope you find something interesting points from them too.

@@msinerva80 i fly MSFS2020 too with h145, but when you’re flying long distance did you fly with A.Trim On ?

@@Rama_92i We have the A.TRIM basically on all the time. Like AP too and we fly about 95% of the flight time with the upper modes captured (mainly HDG/NAV and ALT). A.TRIM is switched off only if landing on a uneven surfaces. After the latest H145-update I noticed that the steering has changed a bit confusing if you don’t use the Force Trim push button when flying manually, or let the AP take the control.

@@msinerva80 OK, thank you for this information. Indeed with the Build 336 the direction was quite vague but with the 337 I think they corrected it

Thanks Matthew! I don’t know what is DVE but yes, we have the possibility to use hover indicator in the MFD’s. If this is what you ment with the hover symbology?

Thanks a lot! 😊🙏🏼

👍🏼😊

😅 Yes… The helicopter had to be raised from the platform to ground for maintenance reasons, so I decided to capture the startup and shutdown procedures meanwhile 😊

@@msinerva80 Right - this one can assume. But nevertheless it's not that exiting to watch. Tomorrow I will post a video, when I move my car inside my yard to wash. It will be very interesting.

@@francovaderno3532 Oh.. 🤔 Pitty that you don’t like. This is my most watched video on YT, so I think that the people who do sim flying, and are helicopter aviation enthusiastics, like to see how you startup a helicopter. There is not many videos on YT from this subject. Please scroll fwd if you don’t like 🙏🏼

Nice! The freeware H135-helicopter with Helionix in FS2020 is started the exact same way than this H145 :) I’m flying also FS2020 myself but not yet downloaded the H145 due the little bit expensive price.

@@msinerva80 I see! What do you think about the H135 compared to the real deal? The H145 feels a bit too steady for me, but I have no experience in flying helicopters in real life so 😄

@@GoosebumpRacing I think I can't give very useful answer because I don't have any proper controls.. just the cheapest Hama-joystick in the market :D But If you put the realism setting from the H135 tablet (attached to the front panel) to highest, I think you can get some kind of picture. I don't know if the H145 has this kind of steps of realism to choose from..? And by the way.. Helionix equipped helicopters are designed to fly with autopilot as much as possible, so trying to do everything manually might be even harder that in real life. Flying modern helicopter is more to use the system that flies the machine itself :)

@@msinerva80 I see! Sounds like you have to invest in some proper equipment then! 😄 The H145 does have the different settings of realism as well! 😊 Yeah I kind of expected the modern helicopters to be more automated.

Am here for the same reason. 😆

Quite simple when you learn it.. like many things are 😁

​@@msinerva80these screens are so cool

Thanks for the feedback 🙏🏼😊 This simple and grainy video I made during my short flight from a platform to the ground has gathered suprisingly much views comparing to all the other videos. If you wish, please check my other videos where I use my home simulator like the real helicopter, and explain all the procedures during startup, takeoff, landing and shutdown. This H145 startup procedure is actually very simple and moder way of start a turbine aircraft, compared to many others. The smaller EC135-version without Helionix is more manual when it comes for example malfunctions, like hot start or hang start during ignition. H145’s system automatically makes the restart after hang start, and aborts startup in case of hot start. Perhaps in the future there is possibility just to ignite the whole system with a button 😊 But I’d be a bit scared to start such a helicopter because you have to be all the time aware of the system and ready to abort what you are doing. And many of the overhead panel switches are separately considered to switch on or leaving off so automatic all on -action would be a bit hard to make happen.

Thanks! I copied an anwer from the earlier comments: The mechanics had to do some helicopter system calibrations which are not able to be done when on a platform :) And emergency startups are waaay more faster than this kind of non-urgent startups.

Nice that you liked it! I like H145 also a lot. Just bought it for myself in FS2020 and getting familiar with the controls. Actually right now starting the game after downloading the FinnHEMS livery 🤩 Icing weather is totally no go because there is no de-icing in the helicopter. We are not able to fly in freezing precipitation or even with anything FZ on forecasts (METAR/TAF). I’ll try to catch something with the winter element but still waiting for the permission from FinnHEMS to capture action camera material from the emergency flights. Meanwhile you can go follow me on Instagram @msinerva. There is some footages from winter conditions too.

@@msinerva80 also i was wondering, do you fly under ICAO radiocallsign ? Or with your registration ? I think it’s FIHxxx ? Don’t know the callsign though. Kiitos paljon ^^

@@jonwait We use ”FinnHEMS 51” in Rovaniemi and ”Mediflight 51” when in practice flight.

@@msinerva80 thank you very much. Weird my message disappeared, i was talking about icing conditions. Knowing the weather in Finland, i guess you’re grounded quite often in winter. I added you on IG, great photos congratulations, can’t wait for more content :) kiitos paljon !

@@jonwait There are sometimes few days in a row that we are grounded due the weather but we also have a lots of lovely weather in the winter. We are using Night Vision Goggles during the dark time so the short days at the Arctic Circle do not prevent us from flying :)

Nice to hear that you liked :) Perhaps you could get some help from my sim videos where I fly HEMS-missions using the automation. I tried to use it like I would use in real life. There are now few videos in english from HEMS-missions in MSFS :) But briefly… irl we always have the autopilot 1 and 2, Backup SAS and Auto trim switched on, so that the Master List at the bottom of the MFD 1 and 2 is empty from all yellow cautions, and no yellow lights on at the APCP (Autopilot Control Panel), where you switch the upper modes (HDG, ALT, IAS…) on and off. Auto trim is switched off when for example doing a landing on sloping terrain, so that the trim doesn’t try to counter act to the attempts to hold the helicopter on it’s skids. Hope this helped you :)

@@msinerva80 thanks a lot, that helps indeed, and watching also the other videos - great content you produce, thanks a lot! My problem is that with AP1 and AP2 on I sometimes get a trim runaway when wanting to slow down and pitching up. The helicopter trims pitch so far up that I cannot control it or even get a tail strike after landing. Wondering if I am doing anything wrong or if that’s a Sim issue…

@@kjeldsennejunker7831 🤔 Sounds really strange. I have never encoutered that kind of issue. Try slowing down smoothly with maximum 20° nose up and then leveling just before zero ground speed. H145 hovers around 5° nose up.

@@msinerva80 thank you for the hind! Will try that and report back :)

@@msinerva80 Super helpful! thank you!

Hi, thanks for your responce! The filming in real world missions is quite restricted. But however, there are few sim-videos about HEMS-missions including the startup which is done exactly like in real world. Perhaps you’ll find them useful 😊 Here is one of them where I fly a mission which has been flown irl too. (Excluding the ifr-approaching to EFRO). kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a71yltV4yb3Ximw.html

@@msinerva80 Thank you for your response! I'll study your videos!

Nice to know that you liked it :) It was just to move the helicopter from the platfor to ground to be able to do the LAVCS calibration :)

@@msinerva80 I had to google LAVCS. Never had anything that fancy in the helicopters I flew. We also used to track and balance the blades ourselves with small weights on the the ends of the blades and adjusting trim tabs on the trailing edges using a highly sophisticated piece of wood lol.

On D3 no more LAVCS !😉👍

That one is company owned checklist but I can share a similar one if you tell me where to send it 😊

Yes, couldn’t be much easier :) And the computer also controls the whole starting process for example by cancelling the startup in case of a hot start and by restarting in case of a flame out.

@@msinerva80 pretty sophisticated, but that's just what to expect from a state-of-the-art helicopter :) always love to find out about these details, my dad actually works at Airbus Helicopters as a senior manager, but I've only gotten the chance to see the startup routines of the CH-53GA (his department) and the BO-105 way back in the days ^^

@@Knyllahsyhn Wow, thats great to hear! They really make awesome helicopters. My first turbine engine type rating was for EC135, which is a great helicopter, but this H145 is something way better!

@@msinerva80 Why does the 145 have the tradional tail rotor instead of the 135 fenestron tail rotor?

@@geddon436 Actually there is a fenestron tail rotor in H145. EC145 has the traditional one :)

Hey, Pressing the Trim Release (later TR) button is not necessary. The helicopter has a follow up trim until around 40kts speed, which makes the trims follow the control inputs during low speed flying. I ofter press the TR IRL while hovering, but then realize that I don’t need it. Pressing it makes the controls a bit lighter though. In the HPG’s H145 it seems to be necessary to press the TR-button when ever making manual control inputs.

@@msinerva80 Thanks for explaining! It seems you can change that setting in the settings page of the HPG Tablet. I didn’t change it from “Hover” but as you say it seems to be more realistic in “Follow up” mode.

The mechanics had to do some helicopter system calibrations which are not able to be done when on a platform :) And emergency startups are waaay more faster than this kind of non-urgent startups.

@@msinerva80 ok cool, thanks for the explanation and the video!!

Yep on the FND, low part, you have .... differents choices... SCT for sector...HOV for hovering

Helipad isn’t heated (and quite slippery after some frost formation). The platform is heated from the part where the platform tires travel.

This is actually the reason I'm flying mainly with the H145 ☺ Almost all the switches and buttons work as they work in the real helicoopter. And this is still a early access version 😅

On even days we start first engine 2 and on un-even days engine 1 😊

@@msinerva80 We call those ‘Odd Days.’

@@heli-crewhgs5285 I suppose your version is more correct 😊 Native finnish speaking trying to handle english words which I don’t use in my every day life… In finnish it’s ”parillinen” (even) and ”pariton” (non-even) 😁

This is from Rovaniemi FinnHEMS (FH51) base in Finland.

We start motors according to the date. Even days -> engine 2, uneven days -> engine 1. This is how we share the burden of first system start evenly with the both engines.

We change each days.... even and uneven...and each flight when you have many flights...

No I didn’t. We always keep the anti collision light switch on as you can see in 2:30.

This video is filmed on a real helicopter. But you can get really close to reality with HPG H145-helicopter base- and action pack. You can buy them on www.hypeperformancegroup.com/ Super realistic FinnHEMS livery from Denis Pfeiffer is downloadable for free from flightsim.to flightsim.to/file/24052/hpg-airbus-h145-finnhems-se-jrd-real-8k-civilvar Some video footage from this combination in english coming in the future on this channel so stay tuned!

Well hi!

Yes, the Insta360 One R -camera has some limitations when capturing the 360-video in this kind of lighting situations. But with the better 1” module I could not have been able to do the panning. Let’s see if I’ll get the chance to do more explanating version some day. This one was just captured while moving the helicopter from the platform for the technicians :) We are not allowed to do much extra manouvers with the tax payers money.

You mean what? 😅 It’s cold up here in the winter time. And many people know what happens with the nose when it’s freezing.

@@msinerva80 Cool video dude👍🏻👍🏻

Yes.. captured with a really good quality 360-camera which however has it’s downsides. When digizooming, the quality really drops and dark areas are quite grainy. But advantages are for example flexible possibilities to crop into variable details in edit. You can check my newst video where I do the start-up using our checklist in MSFS20 and with same H145 helicopter. There is also really accurately shown how to fly HEMS in flightsimulator with checklists and different procedures.
