i love it can i land on water

is it able to land on water

Nice helo, but I think the heater needs a rework. Keep having to get up from the seat to warm myself up haha

why is the pitch so high?

It sends a signal that can be detected by a transponder locator wich could be useful if rescue service can't find you .

Sorry for the silly question but how do you use the VHF radio and the transponder. In addition to that what on earth is the transponder for.

A Marine 1 version please.

Cheers! found a simple grey jet fuel truck with a hose connector. Thanks for building this craft and all the other amazing looking things. You make the game

You need to manually connect a fuel hose by hand. The default fuelling stations will be enough.

Really love this helicopter. Allround and the gear in the back makes it complete. My absolute no1 go to helicopter. Can someone help me out how to refuel this beast? Tried several fuel trucks but the connector wont fit the fluid port on the left side, next to the crew door?

I do not know either ... my best guess would be stormworks being stormworks.

Why does this helicopter always seem to crash multiplayer servers and freeze my screen when i try starting up the helicopter. Frustrating and odd.

Other than that, tried it on a singleplayer server and worker perfectly fine, amazing helicopter.

Grab one of the Handles above the Door and exit the Harness.

literally next to the crew door marked in bright red

Where the hell is the refuel point?

I re-uploaded the one that was done by the guy who didn't ask, cause I didn't know but fair enough

Since I assume that you're the one who already did it without asking the answer is no lol

Do I have your permission to re-upload this with a Royal Navy Skin?

for some strange reason I can't seem to be able to refuel, I would connect the hose and no jet fuel would enter, am I doing something wrong?

I cant even start it????

Jet

Also crude or disel?

I set the engines on high on normal operations, I am a rule breaker. >:)

Ok, thanks for the very fast answer.

XFeed = Crossfeed Valve between AFT and FWD Tanks.
Consumption changes like that are just due to pitch and gravity induced by pitch.
The real manual actually warns you to not exceed certain Pitch Angles at low FWD Tanks because it could starve the Engine.

Hello, its a cool Heli and i like to fly ist. Can you tell me the function of the "X FEED" button?
Why is the consumption of fuel at the FWD tank higher, if you fly forward and slower if you fly backwards? The same goes for the AFT tank.

Just ignore it lol, I forgot I merged it with the battery switch.

Where the heck are the avionics

I can't find the avionics

This has been a lot of fun to use as a solo player. Feels like a modern helicopter--neutral on the stick and collective basically holds you in place (though the AP position hold and altitude hold modes are also useful). Hoist controls on one rescue harness is super useful. Wish it had more fuel, but there's only so much space for it.

Where is Avionics located?

hey @Sir Murtak [108th] i was just wondering if you had a discord or anywhere i can contact you?

extremely accurate interior, well done!

For some reason I can't control this for the life of me. The engines are on normal and I followed the checklist. I barely get out the hanger before it flips out and bursts into flames.

Good to hear! It was mainly designed as a Safety Feature in case you accidentally fall out.

Ah didn't know about that first condition, i was hesitant to just throw myself out on my career save. Works perfectly, thanks!

Afaik there shouldn't be a reason for it to be broken. Conditions for it to operate are:
-No Player in (or really close around) the Helicopter
-No NPC or Player in the controlling Harness
-Autowinch Arm Button on
If all these conditions are met it should deploy it automatically to a winch length equivalent to the current radar altitude.

Hi, auto-winch doesn't appear to work anymore, else I'm doing something wrong. It's armed and im within 20m reach of the ground, but it won't go down by itself.

how does the althold work? Also, what are the two 1x1 screens in the bottom middle for?

its a great model, but the flight model tends to rock around alot and i find myself constantly compensating for maneuvers i did 2-3 seconds ago. maybe a stronger gyroscope?

yep that was the problem i didnt realize i was doing that. great chopper. i fly one in xplane11 and yours is about as close as you can get in stormworks.

Is your throttle set to "N" (Normal) for both engines? I suspect that you're running it on "H" (High) which is only meant for heavy lifting or single engine operation.

ok man this is a fantastic model and its my favorite sea king in game, but its really jittery when flying it does weird things i dont know if its something i did but it likes to bounce up and down.

False Idol, sorry your having trouble. Make sure the 'RADAR/BEACON' switch is on, that is the mode by which the beacons are displayed. Also, ensure the 'Map Projector' is also on so the map points can be displayed on the map. Hope that helps, let us know if you need further assistance.

Good stuff but I am having some trouble with the beacon triangulating system. It's not generating points at all no matter how strong the signal is. Is there any other button I need to click other than "RADAR POWER" and ''RADAR/BEACON"?

MikeM86, Sir Mutrak did a great job explaining the Emergency Beacon Triangulation System. One thing I'll add is; of the two possible locations the system will generate the 'real' location will likely be the one that changes the least. The one that dances about the screen is likely the false contact. Hope that helps!

good helicopter

The Flash just shows that it has something detected. Signal Strength indicates the Strength of the Signal (it usually flashes way before it evens reads a signal strength). It will also draw two points on the map which will update constantly. These are possible target solutions. They will improve the more you fly around. (This pretty much only happens when you have signal strength indicated)

I love the bird, but I'm a little confused as the beacon portion of the system. Does it just give a flash until you're in a certain range and then it gives signal strength?

yeah, i agree the giant gimbalcams look shit. the navigator booth has proper screens in the newer ones so that would be nice to have. just in general updating its "tech" but i still love how old everything looks. Im norwegian and my mom's sister's son worked at sola airport as groundcrew. every time he drove past the 330 squadron (SAR squadron at sola) he would take a photo of the helis that would stand outside in the summer and show them to me when we had a familigathering cause he knew i was into aviation. The livery is boring i agree but there isnt rlly that many details/paintblocks witch would make it easier on MP as it takes a little FPS when there is many ppl on a server. About the smooth take off, i started trying to lift when the RPS was to low so...
(i hope u understand what i wrote)
