This is a huge lesson for me. So many times I've "fallen through", as you say, and didn't understand why (the physics involved). Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together. You're providing a great service for the community, Casmo. Much appreciated.

Been a WWII flight sim person for a long time, but recently got DCS and the Huey. I practiced slow speed flight, transitioning in and out of hovers, but my landings still stunk: falling through, completely missing the mark, etc, etc. I understood all the theory, but my execution was unsatisfactory. Your video around 7:20 gave me the aha moment: seeing your descent airspeed... Once I mimiced getting slower earlier, it feels MUCH more natural! Nose to control speed, collective to control descent. Thanks!

Thank you for this and the previous landing video, @CasmoTV. Because of this, I can finally land the Apache consistently with just a basic CH stick with the slider-throttle acting as the collective. This clicked and gave me a nice "torque picture" of the airframe. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Looking forward to a proper collective.

I landed like that once in AFG when I lost my hydraulics one night. Thought my tail rotor was having issues too so I stated above 40knots the whole way. Left quite a mark on that UAS strip.

Why are you disabling force trim? I have seen you make a point of that a couple times, but I can't figure out why.
@CasmoTV 3 жыл бұрын
We typically don’t use force trim unless holding a set course. In the kiowa we basically only used it for keeping the rotor stable on the ground. In flight it’s just one more thing trying to control you.

Please forgive my ignorance as I am a complete newbie when flying rotary aircraft (usually drive Tomcats), but what is the best way to slow down ones air frame when coming in to land? I always struggle at slowing down my airframe and from stopping it from gaining speed. Also keep these videos coming they are a great help. Thanks.
