Thanks for watching and commenting! Yeah hovering can be difficult at first and even once it has been learned sometimes it goes south. Getting all 16 Hellfires off sounds like a good sortie! And kind of sounds like 16 kills!

Thank you so much for the kind comment! I'm very glad you enjoyed it and that my "slow learning" is coming through. The downside is long videos which I will try and fix with shorter ones and a few more instead.

Thank you so much! Glad you liked it! 😀

Thank your so much! I'm really glad you like it! Is great to hear you're getting better, as you say, it gets to be more and more fun the more one learns and knows. DCS modules have a steep learning curve but huge amounts of reward. 😊

Thank you! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thanks for watching and I'm glad it's helpful! Thanks for the kind comment about the flying 🙂 Like I said, practice and practice! That goes for every module we want to fly. Being good at one module will makes us better with all in many ways. The helicopters are very different of course and I feel the Apache is the one that flies most similar to a fixed wing plane. One could of course dedicate oneself to one single module, I wish I could do that but there are too many good ones to choose from.

Wow, thank you very much! I am using the Virpil WarBrD base with the TC50CM2 grip without extension at the moment (for reference) I use 5 for deadzone and 10 for curve for both X and Y axis. For pedals I use 10 for curve and 0 deadzone as I have pedals without center and springs.

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to comment and asking questions! 🙂 The Apache is so sensitive to input at low speeds that it's, at first, difficult to stay steady in a hover compared to other helicopters, it's also what makes it beautiful to fly and the reason you don't really need to trim until 70 knots so both good and bad in some ways. People often trim helicopters too much in my opinion, with some it's needed but the Apache is almost a "trim once" kind of bird. If you're gonna fly longer flights at the same speed it's nice to trim for that speed though. Feel free to check out my "pure" trim tutorial I made a few days ago here where I go through trim settings more. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/acuHhZBhy5ybmYU.html If you don't have the time or desire, the settings I go over there, and the ones I use are Central Position Trimmer mode, this will save you a whole world of trouble compared to instant trim, especially for the pedals but you already discovered that as you use the Free Pedals 🙂 The Warthog is a superb stick and a nice setup, instant trim will work for the stick as well if that is what you are used to and if you're fast enough at centering it. Central position trimmer doesn't require you to center the stick in panic most of the time though.

Thank you so much for the clarification! I didn't know that was what the circle was telling me actually, I should've read up more on it perhaps but too excited to fly the thing 🙂

Circle is the acceleration cue and basically symbolizes what you said. We consider it the general position of the cyclic.

LOL Yup! I've wrapped plants and choppers around them more times than I can count. A lot of people seem to really like it in VR, perhaps I should get myself a pair of new high end VR glasses. We'll see, I'm enjoying my wide-screen immensely!

Hey! Sorry about the late reply. Do you mean while manually hovering? If so, you have to work the throttle/collective carefully, small adjustments. If however you increase the pitch and start moving forward, you need to lower the power in order to maintain altitude, carefully cooperate the cyclic and collective in order to maintain altitude and speed.

@@wilbuzllf5057 thank you!

@@MrDrunkblackstar My pleasure! Good luck! 😀

Hey! With more power I do indeed mean use the throttle. You can use the throttle as much as you like during flight once you get a feel for it and how to use it but it's often common to use it too much which can result in too high speed and loss of control.

Hey! Yeah it has got a little of everything, good airport with open spaces and a big city nearby. It's Dubai International Airport on the Persian Gulf map. 🙂

Sure thing! Were you thinking something in the line of a normal airplane approach almost?

@@wilbuzllf5057 I was thinking more of come in around 500ft and land from that point. Like a hover landing. Did I make that confusing?

@@joshuascholl5280 I understand what you mean I think, will try to make it happen this week 😊

I can imagine! I can highly recommend getting a joystick, ANY kind of joystick! 😂
