HU: Seems that Cerasim released new helicopter AS365N3

[joe bob]

Never tried Rio for helo ops. Gonna have to look into it, thanks! Going to take a look. What level do you have shipping set at?


Going to try and get my other helo buddy to get this bird.

I should have mentioned the AI is the freeware addon by Henrik Nielsen. I don't recall what level I have set but I am sure it is at least whatever he recommends.
I like Rio not only because it is a nice looking area in FSX but there are always plenty of Mr Nielsen's AI ships at anchor or underway in and out of the harbor.

The more I fly it, the more I like it. Especially with the repaints by Jeansy and Fireball6. Great work, guys.

One more thing to add to the bug list. Shouldn't there be a digital readout on the airspeed indicator?

And, has anyone heard back from CeraSim on the missing glass textures?

[ksheadley]

Just got this Helo and must say I'm really liking it. Now if I can get as good as these guys in my area......

[kdfw]

i'll upload these things here soon:

1) uscg with color corrected cg orange including window texture
2) vc textures
3) HTR profile

The digital readout is linked to the autopilot, put an airspeed and it will show.

You have the two missing textures in the repaint of fireball6 here. Put them in each of your textures, or better in your texture folder and you've got a fix until cera make a service pack.

@kfdw : I'm impatient to test that, especially the htr profile.

[Rebo]

This is what I did so far. Hope that they will do a shortnose model someday.

Rebo, may i ask how you removed the Winch and the Bottom-Parts ?

Dirk

[Rebo]

I did that with an old Version of ModelConverter. You can delete there parts,but most of the time they are grouped with other important parts,that you will also loose with deleting these parts.

VC Texture Mod
1) Panel color adjusted darker, placards added to panel
2) gauge color saturation adjusted
3) gauge glass reflection adjusted to best match anti-reflective coating
4) panel night light color adjusted for incandescent lighting (softer white)
5) fix excessive radio/NAV/DME display background illumination
6) panel night light is NVG compatible green (USCG HH-65C)
7) ADI for HH-65C uses blue=sky/brown=ground scheme (USCG HH-65C)

USCG HH-65C Repaint Adjustment
1) CG orange color adjusted
2) Pilot texture with proper HGU helmet
3) tires blackened
4) added missing glass texture and spec map (from Cera B222)

HTR Profile
1) profile v1.0 included, mainly tested with HTR v1.5, should work for v1.6x

WX radar gauge
1) adding ASN/AS16 WX radar gauge to the VC panel (Dolphin is equipped with a radar)

KDFW - great Job !

I have been wanting to get this one, so I tried a default helicopter first to test if my controls will work with a helicopter. Somehow I can not get the prop on the collective (twisting) to change the rpm with my controls. It only turns when I use the mouse, but that's a hassle.
All other control axis are configured and work fine.
I use FSUIPC for the control assignments and calibration.

My controls are:

Thrustmaster Hotas X
Joystick: ailerons/elevators for the cyclic
Throttle: for collective up/down
Extra axis on throttle handle is assigned to prop for rpm (that is not working!!)

and CH Pedals.
Rudder for anti torque

Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

my p3d has crashed and i cant try however i have a funny feeling if you black alpha those parts it will vanish, but i could be wrong

[stovall]

Here is a repaint I am working on. This is Lt. Cmd Charlie Wilson's HH65 seen at Oshkosh Air Adventure 2016.

Hi Matt, tried it without success - maybe Cerasim will listen to us customers and add the option to the control-panel

Dirk

BTW - looking forward to your paint Stovall

[Fireball6]

The video blogger Steveo flew with him on that helo this year.

Thanks Joe Bob, saw that great video after returning from Oshkosh this year. Great details about the HH65 and Charlie is very good in his description of what is happening as the flight continues. Something that is interesting, I asked Charlie if he ever did some flight simulation? He mentioned he has used FSX and did some of his flight training with Prepar3D. Well my next question was do you ever go to any flight simulation forums on the Internet? He said "there was one he liked called Sim Outhouse." Couldn't help myself asking do you know who your moderator/administrator is for the FSX part of the forum? He came back with a guy named Stovall. I just smiled. He next comment was "NO not you." Yep, it is a small world. With that we became instant friends. Charlie gave myself and Mark Schimmer (Roger Wilco-66) seats in his helo. That wasn't good enough he then took us over to the U.S. Coast Guard Jayhawk sitting along side the HH65 Dolphin. Charlie made sure both Mark and I got to sit inside the cockpit of the MH-60 Jayhawk. Had to hold the helmet getting our pictures. Here are two with one more of the three of us in the next reply to the thread.
