I’ve spent much of the morning with it. And I’ve wrecked it probably ten times now. Not so much because it’s difficult to fly, as it is just terribly unforgiving of not being competent. If I’m only concentrating on flying it, I do pretty good. But if I try to fly and work the sensors and stuff…RIP. The autopilot hover hold seems rather finicky and doesn’t always engage when I want it to - and then I end up getting into VRS or something and it’s all over.
Question - is there a way to blip up the altitude while in hover hold (like climb ten or twenty feet?)… Gonna have to break out Chuck’s Guide!
Yes there is. But I forgot the function. It’s a lot of fun to fly though! And multicrew is coming to this baby so you can focus on flying and let the killing be done by someone else.
It’s also the perfect module to spy on the babes in Vegas
edit: It’s the C key to turn off the autocollective. You can then climb a little and turn it back on again.
Looks like “C” button turns off the altitude hold while in hover and allows your collective to control altitude (by pushing to reduce power and pulling to add power of course… )
can’t compete with that and yes that’s exactly how it works. There’s no function like “adding or substracting a couple of feet” to the autocollective system.
I might try and make the Arma event, My arma is sitting there collecting dust, but understand I am a cross between Rambo and Leroy Jenkins… deadly combination for being the pilot on your missions
