Hijong Park’s UH-1H Huey
The latest version of everyone’s favorite chopper is here !
Features :
– Unmatched level of realism in helicopter flight that can’t be found in any other aircraft mods. including…
1. Torque effect : when collective is increased, the helicopter will turn to right because of the torque created by the main rotor. the torque decreases as the helicopter gains forward speed.
2. Translating tendency : If you push rudder to left to deal with Torque effect, the tail rotor will start to create its own lift and make the helicopter drift to right.
3. Translational Lift : the helicopter gains extra lift and speed as move. because of this, you don’t need to pitch down to extreme to fly forward like vanilla helicopters or other mods.
4. retreating blade stall : If you fly too fast, the helicopter will shake aggressively and you’ll lose control. Do not fly faster than the red line in the speed meter.
5. Vortex ring state : if you go down too quickly while there isn’t much forward speed, the helicopter will suddenly lose all lift and go down very quickly. The most dangerout state for helicopters.
6. Over torque & Engine overheat : if you increase the torque higher than the red line in torque meter, the engine temperature will start to increase. if it hits the limit, the engine will cause permanent engine failure. Keep watching the engine temperature and don’t go full collective all the time.
Flight stick and rudder controller are essential to fly this thing properly. If you don’t have them, fly in Arcade flight mode which deactivates pitching up caused by translational lift, torque, and engine overheat.
– Turret mounted M134 minigun
the turret mounted twin miniguns can be used in 3 different modes by pressing countermeasure key :
1. facing forward : the minigun is fixed at forward. use XM60 reflex sight to aim and fire.
2. controlled by pilot : you can control the minigun by moving your camera. there’s no crosshair for it, look at the tracers to aim it.
3. controlled by copilot : the minigun can be controlled and fired by your copilot.
– Unique rocket system
you can select the pair of rockets per shot using sight mode key.(T+wheel or mouse3 and mouse4) take a look at the armament panel to check the current rocket pair mode.
by landing at helipad and pressing jump, you can swap the rocket’s warhead between 4 different variants :
1. M151 : multi purpose High explosive warhead.
2. M247 : High explosive anti tank warhead with increased direct damage but decreased blast radius.
3. M156 : White phosphorus warhead that makes a deadly smoke which blocks vision and damage infantries.
4. M261 : Multi purpose sub munition warhead that spreads 9 M73 grenades.
– Landing light
In night combats or dark areas, You can use landing light to light your way. Press numberpad * to turn on landing light, and Press numberpad – and + to extract / retract it.
– No countermeasure
To make it historically accurate, this helicopter has no Countermeasures and IR receiver. However, the missile lock point is located at cayuse’s engine vent. if you don’t hover and keep moving, you can avoid the incoming missile. however if the missile was coming from far and gained enough velocity, it can be hard to avoid. in that case lure the missile into cover.
– ADF navigation
Use ADF to locate capturepoints. If you set ADF frequency to friendly point and land at there, you can request quick rearming !
– Radio
Turn on ‘Rise of the valkyries’ or ‘Fortunate Son’ with Kick(V) key !!!
– Sling loading
If you press jump key while selecting minigun and landing at helipad or waypoint, you can remove miniguns. when minigun is removed, you can use sling rope with fire key. attatch the rope at vehicles to sling load them !
max allowed weight (mass) is 999. you can’t carry vehicles heavier than 999, also fixed turrets.
weight limit is removed in arcade mode so you can carry any vehicles including tanks.
