Hey snak, I know its been a while since we have last talked, but I was wondering if you wanted to do a collab in DCS some time. It has been cool seeing you blow up recently. Keep up the good work!
I'm curious, when would that first takeoff be used? Seems like it's not quite a max performance takeoff nor a normal takeoff profile. I'm not familiar with this bird's recommended takeoff profile but I imagine the first demonstration enters shaded regions.
That was a pretty standard takeoff. Got enough power to take off without having to build up airspeed in ground effect and no need to take off vertically.
@@SnakPakFlight I guess my question is really "why" and not "how." The power is definitely there and it is possible, but H/V diagrams exist because of the event of engine failure. Hence why ideally, you either do a max performance takeoff to clear the obstacle, then make your best effort to enter a standard takeoff profile, or just use a standard profile. I feel like the beginning of that constant rate takeoff has a good bit of time wherein if you experience engine failure, you're higher than you'd like while being slower than you'd like. But this is coming from a private pilot who only flies piston birds, so there could absolutely be a bunch of stuff I'm missing here.
@@Maverickib Most helicopters I've ever flown use the profile from the first demo for normal everyday flying. It keeps the stresses off the engine and rotor system, and it is quite an easily managed accent profile that actually allows transition into IGE autorotation quite easily. It also reduces the power needed for the climb and thus, fuel consumption and can be good when heavier than normal but not at max weight. You've not had fun till you've hover autoed a Huey from a 40ft hover.
@@ImpendingJoker I looked into it more and it's a turbine helicopter thing. They're more reliable than pistons and since they're usually used in bigger birds, there's plenty of rotor energy in the case of a failure. You can hover auto a huey at 40ft but losing the engine while hovering at 40ft in a R22, or likely even a R44, is a situation you won't walk away from uninjured. Small piston helos live and die by the H/V diagram.
I use the meta pro VR, and with it its like you are looking at objects at 4 feet away all the time, weather the object is close or far away that is how the lens is focused to your eye. SO you will glasses that would be best for you at 4 feet.
Hey would you be possibly interested in collaborating with Glid Gaming? We will love to have a real pilot involved with the team! Please let me know the best way to contact you and we can do a follow up! Awesome channel!
