History:
Ka-8
First flight 1947
Number built 5
The Kamov Ka-8 was a small, single-seat Soviet helicopter that first flew in 1947. It was a precursor of the Ka-10. The Ka-8 was powered by a 27 hp M-76 engine, boosted to 45 hp by using alcohol for fuel - It was derived from a previous Kamov design, the KA-17.
Note: Comrade, we are getting several reports of fuel ware lost so often without flying the helicopter
How to fly:
AG1 to switch on the initiation -
VTOL at 100% (Highest) for upward thrust
VTOL down slowly to move down.
you need some practice to fly a helicopter if you are new. But this is pretty easy to fly.
HOW TO FLY (basic)
This applies for MOST of the helicopters, but not for AutoGyros, V-22 types

my little Kamov is getting interest again, I noticed people are Upvoting and downloading it again this month
@32 thanks
@WinsWings I’m hiding somewhere :D
@WinsWings I've done it before, I'll make a demo and tag you in a few minutes
@32 can you do that? I dis but it doesn’t work
Good job, you could XML edit the buoyancy to make it float though
@Rework thanks. Where are you hiding buddy
@FirstFish83828 i will figure out
Amazing :D
Nothing like soviets and drinking industrial coolant, or, in this case, aviation fuel.
@WinsWings can’t you XML mod it?
@FirstFish83828 no. It can’t. The physical size is too small although i set the floats at buoyancy 100%
Nice, but doesn’t land on water.
Very Good
@WinsWings tag me pls
@Sakorsky One of the plane I wanted to build in the future
@WinsWings yeah, crazy that it was developed into the Tu-22M though, I love that plane.
@Sakorsky Well, Tu-22 was nicknamed the "supersonic booze carrier".
@WinsWings I'm serious though, this happened again with the Tu-22 when the pilots just drink the vodka used for uhhh I forgot.
@Cosmopolitan thanks
@OkaNieba ouch! Ouch! Let me jump out of it
Ngl, this is one of the best pocket helis in simpleplanes!
Now time to shove weapons at this
Where Is My Stinger ?
@Sergio666 thanks. Well, i did not get much spotlight ever. :(
@Sakorsky lol
