Summary
A mod to bring some extra realism to helicopters in Arma
Official Workshop description
**UPDATED HELICOPTER HUD**
Mod to the default gauges
- Airspeed: Displays IAS in kts. Gauges customised to aircraft for their individual Vne. Future mod will add coloured arc for safe cruise speeds
- Vertical Speed Indicator: Displays instant vertical speed in feet per minute x 100. Allows pilots to properly control their glidepaths
- Radar Altitude: Displays altitude in feet AGL. Currently the game reads the altitude as the distance from terrain to player. Working on a script to have AGL read off buildings and objects as well.
- Barometric Altitude: Two needle altimeter that reads in feet x 100 (large needle) and feet x 1000 (small needle)
WIP
- fuel gauges that accurately track fuel in modded airframes
- Turn and slip indicator gauge
**UH60** - All credit to AussieMerc (https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/60ED3CC6E7E40221-SikorskyMH60DAPProject)
- Changes to fuel endurance (calibrated to default global fuel consumption of 8x) to allow 1hr endurance at max output.
- ETL effect at 23kts, aircraft will gain pronounced translational lift
- Slight modifications to intertia to provide more control in the hover, with realistic decay as IAS increases
- Increased engine start and stop times
- Removed WCS radar targeting square on non-DAP variants
**CH47** - all credit to Colton1070 (https://reforger.armaplatform.com/workshop/61957C5C6FB7A773-H-47Chinook)
- Removed American cabin flag (sorry America)
- Changed default door guns to M134. Still working on getting them to be reloadable
- Widespread changes to flight model to add weight and inertia. More stability in hover, with increased authority and bite to light cyclic inputs
- Changes to landing gear properties and friction to allow for rear wheel planted insertions
- Changes to fuel endurance (calibrated to default global fuel consumption of 8x) to allow 1hr endurance at max output.
- Uses modded base HUD, with modified Airspeed gauge for higher Vne
These mods are designed to complement the amazing work by the original creators, for use on servers where pilots desire more realism.
---------------------------------
Future plans:
- Custom HUD gauges, including digital readout for AGL
- Changes to altitude signals
- Changes to defuault physics to induce complex failures (LTE, VRS).
- More aircraft to be added
