Yes, its a bug we noticed but thats why we call this a "beta"

[vla]

It is clear. We are waiting for fixes.

[CALINHO]

One question: Cobra maximum speed is only 170 km/h?

[SAS~Bombsaway]

Thats another bug we are trying to fix. I had to alter the FM for 4.12 to stop the over heating issue but gaining speed is proving difficult. Again, this is a beta. We thought we would let you guys have some fun with it instead of leaving it on the shelf for months until things were perfect.

Well I sure appreciate it! Then again, I'll take my warbirds either way: "fast and flyable" or "patient and perfected."

One question: Will it be possible later to separately fire the minigun/40mm turret from the gunner's station?

First salvo rocket goes on sight. The second and all the following are above sight! anyone else noticed this? My English is bad, sorry.

LOL..yeah, I noticed that earlier today.

Still a beauty, tho. Best handling heli in the game, I think.

[SAS~Malone]

we decided we'd rather have a fun, usable FM than historically correct.
if you'd prefer, we can make it go faster, and lose all its handling characteristics. so, which would you prefer, guys?  it's one or the other, atm....
i'm also pretty sure we sorted out the salvo firing 'climbiing' above the reticle, and this issue might only still happen when using unlimited ammo - in which case, my personal opinion is to stop cheating, lol
if it's still happening with normal ammo, then something went wrong somewhere, again....

[RooMan296]

I'm crazy about the Cobra as is. I'll take handling over speed in this case any day. This is a great achievement.

[Mono27]

I cannot load any weapon. Only the cannon. The rest of the weapons show on the menu but they don't show in the heli. What is wrong?

[SAS~Malone]

Mono27, it might help if you post up your error log, so we can see what's going wrong there....
as well as some basic info on your game version, which is something you should always do by default, when looking for tech advice...

@ Rooman, as Bombs mentioned, it's still beta and we will keep working on improving the FM, but it will take a bit of time, as everyone is pretty much tied up with other projects, as well as real life commitments at the moment. as always, all we ask is that our members exercise a little patience until we can further address any issues. 
this was only initially scheduled for release later, but we decided to give everyone a taste for now... believe me, there are still some great improvements on the way for this bird.

as everyone should know by now, IL-2 was never designed for heli's, so they will always be a 'workaround' type scenario just to get them flying.
to expect realistic FM's is really asking too much. i don't believe any of the existing heli's are accurate portayals of their real life counterparts at the moment, and it's unlikely they will ever be. that's just the way it goes in situations like this, and i for one, am perfectly happy just to have a heli that i can fly without breaking into a sweat just to keep it steady, lol

Thanks !

[Mono27]

Thanks for the atention, Malone. 
 It may sounds a stupid question but...how do I get the "error log" ?

I am using 4.10, DBW
