Would love to see some of the cockpits, with the displays, and gauges and buttons, and lights, and controls, and thingys...    

Like this?

This is only a WIP texture without any materials etc.

EXACTLY like that!

Thanks!

And I assume the guages will be dynamic (as far as the ArmA engine is possible anyway.. art. horrizon, airspeed, altitude etc)?

-Chaff & Flare countermeasures

-Under-slung Loads (see Cargo System)

I guess you should be able to animate the shadow lods, I noticed in the shadow the doors are open.

Merry Christmas.

Cheers,

As for the doors. They are animated in the shodow lod but for some bizarra reason they go int he opposite direction to the res lod doors. Its in the know bug list.

About the functional displays, will there be some display with altitude? Arma only displays height above ground, not the altitude. During bad weather I sometimes really miss that input when I want to make sure I wont crash into a hill or a mountain.. To have both would help alot!

[Tankbuster 1747]

Oh, you mean have a radar altimeter as well as a "height above sea level" indicator? It'd certainly be useful.

Yes it has ASL(BaroAltimeter) and AGL(Radar Altimeter) displays.

[andersson 285]

Thank you!! Perfect, I always missed that input while flying!

Glad tidings and Rock on.

Just popped into check out your latest snippets.  Thanks a lot for posting them.

I notice I can't fly like that yet.

[EricJ 765]

I've recently started flying helos myself, and while not like another sim, it's pretty fun flying the UH-60, though the Ka-50 is too rickety for me anyways.

Its not a typo - An "Apache AH1" is the UK designation for the WAH-64D.

SOURCE 1 - British Army Website

SOURCE 2 - Wikipedia

So no you dont get a prize!  

Here's the Video that inspired the Puma Video.

Jeremy Clarkson, A Lotus Exige vs Apache AH1

The Puma video was filmed when i was screwing around in MP with a mate of mine.  We were debating how useful/maneoverable the Puma was.  We had a lot of fun and Kyle stopped bleating about the Blackhawk being better.

whats the difference between the brittish Puma and the AS 332?

[Guest RKSL-Rock]

whats the difference between the brittish Puma and the AS 332?

The 332 is a 'newer' model, a "growth" version of the SA.330 (The HC1 equates to 330E).

The AS332 is fitted with more powerful twin 1330kW Turbomeca Makila 1A1 turbine engines, composite rotor blades, improved landing gear and modified tail fin. The nose is a different configuration, extended and more pointed.  The fuselage is usually stretched (AS332L1) but there are also short versions (AS332C1) . There is also a large 'ventral fin' on the tail boom.  The cockpit and avionics are also much improved.
