i picked it up a few hours ago

Im going to VC merge it with your nemeth port, I did a dozen or so paints for it recently https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/616804-off-the-hip/

and it just needs a better VC after reworking a fair bit of the exterior

I have stuttering with this helicopter on my system i9700K @4.8 GHz and RTX3090. Also flying was difficult with the default settings. Made a change to aircraft.cfg "low_realism_stability_scale = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0" Before I had some rolling problems.
Have you guys better performance or know any settings I could change on this helicopter? All other Cera products are fps friendly on my system.

Cera Sim answered my support request and gave me a texture for the plexiglass making it less blinking. Also they said, if the helicopter is flown in areas with huge airports, the 4k textures may give some stuttering. They suggested to shrink the textures, what I did. They will provide a texture pack at lower resolution, probably 2048.
The autopilot is a bit tricky as I experienced. If you're using the middle autopilot and select the one on the right for altitude, the generators disconnect and the engine shuts off.



So this middle autopilot function has first to be disengaged on the control stick (there's the off button).

I have no idea, if this is reality or just a flaw of this model. I told to Cera Sim and hope, they check my comments for a fix. At least, with more fps this helicopter is easy to fly. It's a bit tricky to land, one needs to get accustomed to it. So every chopper behaves a bit different.

Hope you enjoy this plane as I do. Looking forward to some repaints.

Has someone pictures of Ukrainian Mi-17? I only found pictures of the ones, that have been delivered from Afghanistan by the US to Ukraine.

A paint, which is already in the product but with not Ukrainian flag. I just wondered, that they obviously didn't have Mi-17 before, did they?
