Also forgot to set the batteries to the power bus, seal the cockpit and Sync the Gyros. Its all good though. I love how this points out trouble shooting because as demonstarted, humans are not perfect and can make mistakes.
Another important thing is on the NAV breaker panel, DO NOT engage the airspeed to doppler switch. This is a backup mode if your doppler system malfunctions, in a healthy airframe it's going to corrupt your Diss-15 doppler system and make it drift like there's no tomorrow ^^
Before turn on fuel pumps and opening fuel valves, you'll want to turn on your fire suppression system and ensure it isn't in test mode (and I guess in irl you would want to run the 3 tests too!).
So glad you did this video, I've been struggeling with the power, I don't know what it was but I think I got it now. (don't think it was anything with the rotor rpm but I dont know)
Hey, you turned off your inverters (flipped the blue covers back down over) without telling the people watching what you were doing. You just sorta flipped them while transitioning over to the avionics part. Just a heads up, that may confuse some people! Edit: you also forgot to turn the little pressurization knob on the left to seal your cabin.
Nice tutorial... As always... I fly the FA18, never tried the rotary wings but strongly considering buying this beast. Question : What gear do you use to fly this? thank you!
Where is your video "DCS in 12 minutes gone?" :( I used to show it to people, who had no idea about what DCS was. And I was looking for the video right now :(
I've been using mine for about 5-6 years at this point and it's still going strong. I've read some people have had varable luck when it comes to build quality but I've never had any issues. The only weak link would be their drivers which are a bit meh and haven't been updated for quite some time.
@@timmy3822 Thank you for the answer. I hope that when i buy mine it wouldnt be bad luck with build quality. Im planing to spend a lot of my for good gear that will stay with me at least a half of decade. 5-6 years and still good is perfectly good for me. I hope that your will last you at least 5 years more.
@@Сергей-ю5й5й i have mine for about 4 years now. Light to medium use, I also use it for Xplane11 GA planes. What I like about the warthog HOTAS is that you can upgrade/change stuff pretty easy. Lighter spring, teflon o-ring, extensions, slew upgrade for the throttle etc. Main downside for me is the throttle friction pads, made from weird rubber they can wear down. I like my friction pretty high :D. And the other downside is the smoothness of the joystick right around the center. But I think that's because how it's been build/designed. Other than that mines perfectly fine too.
