Part-Efficient Aircrafts~!!


YO YO YO, WEEKDAY CHIIPOSTING YO!

DO YOU BELIEVE THE HYPE?? DO YOU BELIEVE THE VIBE??? DO YOU- *cough* okay that's a bit too much energy and yelling..

anyway, another request by a good friend of mine, this time, the Symbol of Snowstone Herself, "Miss E" a.k.a @LunarEclipseSP!!

anyway, finally done one of the helicopters I wanted to do for a while.. whiiiieeeeellleeeeeee back. like maybe half a year a bit more by this point? but speaking of which..

special thanks to the Kiev-fixation I have that challenged me to make her airwing, but in particular.. the Kamov Ka-27!!

see.. the problem I had with coaxial-rotor setup is that it doesn't have any tail rotor.. and that means it can't Yaw unless you use gyroscope..

you could argue "RESIZE THE TAIL ROTOR BUHHH" and yeah!! that works terrible, awful even.

and that was until my Kamov Ka-27 torpedoed the door and said "CLIP THEM BLADES" and so, a standard-scale rotor head with 3in blades apparrently work better than a standard rotor that's rescaled smaller.

so the resultant is.. now I know how to make coaxial-rotor helis that controls alright, yay! :3

anyway yeah, we done heer.

toos!! :3


The Ka-52 is a modern attack helicopter of Russian origin. The Ka-52 is a further development of the earlier single seat Ka-50 and serves as a heavily armed combat reconnaissance helicopter. The NATO reporting name for the twin seat Ka-52 is “Hokum-B”. Plans for the twin seat Ka-52 started in the early 1980’s. Due to the collapse of the Soviet Union the first airframe was produced in the mid 1990’s and the first Ka-52 entered service in 2011.

  • |[ Weaponsystems.net ]|(the link apparently don't wanna work so search it yourself)

|[ Controls ]|

  • VTOL : Collective
  • Yaw : Tuuuuuuuuuuuurn
  • and pitch and rool for standards
  • :3

|[ Guidelines ]|

|[ Taxiing ]|

  • power accordingly, pitch accordingly.

|[ Takeoff ]|

  • Full Throttle, fly upwards.. don't fly backwards too much.

|[ Flight ]|

  • ...it's a heli, adjust the collective as needed. also, don't fly backwards too fast.

|[ Landing ]|

  • adjust Collective to about halfway-a bit down and land softly, or I'll kneecap you and your elbows.

|[ Armaments ]|

  • 1x Shipunov 2A42 30x165mm Autocannon on an NPPU-80 mount, -2.5/9.5° Traverse, -17/3.5° Elevation, 460rnds, 960m/s(3,100ft/s)
  • 2x FAB-500 Bombs, 500kg(1,100lb)
  • 2x B-13L 122mm Rocket Pod w. 5x(7x to save parts) S-13 Rockets
  • 8x 9M120 Ataka Anti-Tank Guided Missile, 6km(3.73mil), Mach 1.2(400m/s, 1,300ft/s)

|[ Chii's Notes ]|

  • my Mil Mi-2URN still has better stability(a.k.a how steady you can get the platform for shooting) but this gal is acceptable enough
  • the Yaw is a bit.. sweeeeeesweeeeeee kinda feeling
  • I can't add the slip-string because of the part count, eugh.
  • no label instruments this time around.. part count man! Q~Q
  • also the thumbnail has a bit too much heat-purple, should've added cooler colors and a bit of green... I'm lazy though so.
  • hmhhhhhhhhhhhh anywaaaay
  • I'm coming for you, Ka-50.

    see.. the problem I had with coaxial-rotor setup is that it doesn't have any tail rotor.. and that means it can't Yaw unless you use gyroscope..

    I respect the effort, but this is wrong.
    I have made a Coax helo with 0 input help from the Gyroscope. Not only can it stabilize itself without a tail rotor, it can also Yaw.

    how, you might ask? simple.
    use the Alt Collective input and use them in the same direction. (invert the direction for collective input in the other rotor part.)
    you can also go through the cooler, but more sanity draining method
    make your own Throttle Governor to be able to do differential RPM and yaw your helo that way.

    @MTFUE11 that RCN nozzle trick is age-old and is quite the beloved classic XD, I would've opted for a standard generic sight had it not been for the part count. there's also the small gyroscope acting as the "+" in the middle of the sight and I'm kinda proud of that one XD

    I never thought about using the VTOL RCN as sight, impressive. Good aircraft anyway. And I just realised how dummy I am.

    They fly in Florida, sure.
    But in Chernobylat, they mutate with built in weapons.
    .
    ...Which is what this is.
