my thoughts on this is that modelling the anti-torque response is no easy feat.. the additional m-moment from it adds a lot more complications to the pilots cyclic response.

Re: Bell UH-1

ok I'm going to package her up for a release...

Yet again this is very much a WIP as I find her difficult to handle, but it might be correct.

Re: Bell UH-1

ok another observation I need clarity on... If I decrease the anti-torque with the peddles, this has an effect on the tail rotors m-moment which results in a right yaw with a nose down... and the opposite happens left yaw and nose up. This is all dependent on the direction of rotation of the tail ro...

Re: Bell UH-1

ok so first time she's been capable of controlled flight in over a month... not too bad, managed to land her which is a good start. Got to work on some bits, but overall I'm confident I might be going in the right direction for bell_pilots realism requirements based on how squirrely she behaves to r...

Re: Bell UH-1

Ok I'd like to now talk rudder and anti-torque observations. At full main rotor power I get a certain amount of clockwise torque, so I've set up the tail rotor blade angle to counter this at full left peddle. So here's the question When I start the turbine and rotors spinning I have a lowered collec...

Re: Bell UH-1

I think you're going to love this new turbine/rotor code. It's taken me weeks and more head scratching than I could imagine and has absolutely nothing to do with the UH-1, but everything to do with multi engines helicopters.... but we're in a real good place. Anyway I have another question... Torque...

Re: Bell UH-1

Confused... Increase throttle to idle 68-72%

At 100% throttle the only way to keep the rpm down is to raise collective.... Doing that will result in take-off.

Isn't throttle adjusted by the auto governor to maintain rpm ?
