Charlie DOES Surf! - Taog's Hangar UH-1H Huey Review - MSFS. 

Ah i didnt know where that was :D

Belgeode-AvAngel crossover event!

Can I ride along as a back seat driver ;)

It's a springloaded switch, so you can't really forget to turn it back on.

nice!

JP4 is it!

@@jocking3b510 true 🤣

Or possibly "Ride of the Valkyries" from "Apocalypse Now" except you need a hover of helicopters for that.

Not a button. The Fortunate Son switch is under the exterior lights switch

Hope you had fun! I couldn't make it sadly, i do hope to try next year.

That's nothing. FS '24 comes out on the last day of a family trip I've had planned. 🤣😭

Currently I use honeycombs alpha yoke and throttle quad with saitek pedals

Just using the standard mapping of throttle one = collective

The alpha is much smoother in general, not ideal for choppers but far better

I should try!

It has a full set of manuals. I don't have DCS so... *shrug*

@@AvAngel It's a good reference. (you can free test the Huey btw) I think Taog played too much of it (with Huey) :D

@@AvAngel Firstly, it does sound & look great, and secondly your rotorwing skills have come together brilliantly since the first heli-vid, of yours, that I saw (1st look & review H125 Squir'l). Just in case, you haven't heard, and maybe wanted to try DCS, (or needing an excuse to get DCS) then Eagle Dynamics are having a HUGE Summer Sale, which goes on to 17/07/24. In fact, only 4 Planes, 1 Heli and 2 Terrains are NOT discounted and the 2 Terrains are the Free ones you get with DCS. As to Campaigns, only 12 of 75 are still full price. It covers nearly ALL the modules at between 50% off (sadly not the AV-8B or F-4), but about half of the Modules on sale are 50% off, so currently the Huey is only $24.99, as is the Mi-8 & Gazelle. [All prices are in $ US]. On the Fixed-Wing, Piston-Driven side, only the DH Mosquito is $29.99, of the rest (Six Ac) are at $24.99 with 3 more around $5 less. The list for Fixed-Wing Jet Powered Ac starts at $7.49 ea. for 6 Low-Fi Ac (Flaming Cliffs 3 has all 6 @ $24.99), next, there's the F-86 & Mig-15 at $24.99. There are 4 at $29.99 inc F-5E, then it's all 34.99> after that. Anyway, as I was making this list for a friend, and I knew that obviously, someone would bring-up DCS, I thought you may be interested as well. See Y'all.

It’s better. I find the DCS Huey to be too ‘fuselage twitchy’ to control inputs. This one has a better sense of weight and inertia. It also has a more appropriate VRS and RBS implementation.

@@Belatu42 I wonder how the ground effect is - I only ever tried the two stock helos in FS since they were released and even though I made sure I got the advanced FM selected and no assists on, I never could witness any kind of ground effect modelled. Basically, when picking up very slowly leaving the collective at the point where it just starts to lift off, it will just keep climbing and the other way round, when slowly descending in a hover, there literally is no HIGE cushion effect coming up at all, it just keeps descending until it hits the ground. After having flown helos in DCS that behaviour is literally unacceptable for me, regardless of how well other facettes of the FM are simulated. The ground effect thing is absolutely vital. And I wish FS had it, even though Asobo always claimed to have it modelled. Can't speak for the Huey here though, haven't bought and tried it.

@@CakePrincessCelestia ground effect is there in MSFS. It may not be perfect, but it’s modeled. When you make an approach, you don’t have to raise collective to arrest the decent at a 5’ hovering termination. You actually have to push it down to descend that last little bit, but there isn’t always a noticeable, necessary increase in power needed for HOGE. Non of the sims are perfect, they all have pros and cons. That’s why I fly MSFS, XP12 and DCS regularly. I really like the new Kiowa in DCS a lot, but was disappointed to find it hovers right skid low. Which is opposite what it should be for a CCW ship, but whenever I set down, the back right skid hits first. That’s why I don’t put any one sim on a pedestal.

The handle :)

Basically default.

@@AvAngel thanks maybe i set it up from a default profile instead of copying an existing one

Drag and drop to community folder :D

@@AvAngel Is there anything else or just that? cuz I'm not very tech savvy so I only know how to do that 1 thing

Yeah, its sport mode because you can sit your butts in the doors and introduce yourselves to the locals by providing high volume unhealthcare.

@@AvAngel "by providing high volume unhealthcare" :D ymmd!

bank angle isnt a thing in most helicopters :D And there is a caution silence down low.

​@@AvAngel it isn't a thing till airspeed and collective aren't overpushed:) if so, async lift of left and right side will banking that birds... or you about msfs models:)

@@AvAngel caution indicator, this weu-weu about low rpm i disable as first procedure

It looks fine to me, not sure.

Don't touch the rotor brake unless you're stopping the helicopter. Its to be used on the ground only, NEVER in flight.

@@AvAngel and never on ground untill rpm go 20%(by manual 40%) because you don't want to kill all that mechanical shit that stop the rotor, that have too big momentum for try stop it. before it will slow enough.

Nope most now don’t

Patience....😅

@@stevejones924 might be on Xbox by 2024

I never made a single serious remark about the Vietnam war, agent orange or actual armed conflict. Don’t look for offense at me quoting cinema in a review of an aircraft that is this iconic.
