Oh man it's a great aircraft! I noticed the lack of newer startup videos on it so I wanted to fix that :) Thank you so much! There will definitely be more, although it is not my main aircraft so not immediately 😅
This approach is definitely an "I just want to get this thing in the air" type of start up. If you're trying to understand systems, or approach startup in a manner where you can handle failure or mistakes during startup or mid-flight, this won't quite get you there without additional effort. Example: mission 7 or 8 of the Ka-50 deployment campaign has you flying over a mountain pass after a 40 minute flight and it's very easy to have one or both engines shutoff at altitude. You can start them up midflight but you better understand which switches (APU shutoff, APU start -> crank left or right engine) before you hit the ground.
Definitely, that's what I was going for there. I know it's not the whole picture, but that's why there will be more videos in the future ;) Thanks for the feedback!
@@MamboDCS yea honestly super close between them if the blackshark had a rwr MWS (bs3 will have it) and a flir camera it would honestly be better than the apache
Maybe when flying alone but having a friend come along with you is definitely an advantage. Both are amazing and super hyped for the BS3! Hopefully before its release and after it'll get more attention, as it deserves
Thank you very much for the Google Doc. I'm getting ready to buy the Black Shark. Hopefully my Crosswind rudder pedals will arrive tomorrow. Getting excited!
That's awesome! Thank you for watching my video! It's a great heli and A LOT of fun to fly! And the Blackshark 3 upgrade coming soon is gonna be amazing!
Hey Mambo! Since I discovered your channel I loved the F16C tutorials and I just found this video, but I couldn't find any other about the Black Shark. I hope you make more videos and make a playlist so people could go there directly to check the Ka 50 videos :) PS: do you think this is a good helicopter to start? I don't have pedals. Right now there's the Mi8+Ka50 bundle and I'm between that an the F16C. I know both are really different xD
I'm definitely hoping to make more Ka-50 videos! Perhaps when the Black Shark 3 module is released. I think it's a great helicopter to start with and should be fine with a twist stick instead of pedals, although I was lucky enough to get my first pedals before I got the Ka-50 haha! I think it's between what you like to do more, if you like flying high and fast, doing Air-to-Air and Air-to-Ground, then the F-16, which is my personal favorite. If you like flying low and slow attacking ground targets and running supply lines then helis are obviously the choice. Personally, and as much as I love helis, I still prefer fixed wing aircraft, especially the F-16 and I can't recommend it enough. But that's just me!
Yup, there are small explosive charges at the root of the rotor blades so it shoots those off, opens a door above the pilot, and ejects the seat as if it was a fighter jet. Pretty cool, huh? ;)
I'm finally getting around to learning the Ka-50. Glad to see a clear, concise tutorial. I'd love to see more!

@@MamboDCS I’m trying to get DCS but I don’t have enough space for it. Is there anyway to get more I would like to know some tips😢

Glad to see you cover my favorite helicopter in the game right now
Oh man for me it's a very close one between it and the Apache! But the Blackshark is so much fun!

Thank you for showing me to start up
the engine at the helicopter
Gladly!
Thank you for watching!
Occasionally, when I open fuel shutter like 3:12, the RPM would drop down to 0 instead of going up, and I have no idea why
You're probably waiting too long. Make sure to open it as soon as the engine reaches 20% RPM :)
@@MamboDCS looks like that does the trick. I probably waited too long
That's great that it works now!
Yeah, if you wait even a bit too long the Blackshark shuts off the engine haha

i dare you to make a startup of the av8b harrier, explained under a minute
I'll get to that in the future;)
Wait..this helicopter has a seat ejection???
Yup, there are small explosive charges at the root of the rotor blades so it shoots those off, opens a door above the pilot, and ejects the seat as if it was a fighter jet. Pretty cool, huh? ;)
what frustrates me with the KA50 is that the position for on and off for a lot of the switches is mixed
Haha, right?? Anyway, once you get it down it's honestly fine ;)
🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for watching!
very good
Thank you, glad you liked it!
maybe startup update because of new black shark 3? INS alignment is new so i think it's kinda necessary to show it
As far I know the startup itself remained mostly the same. I'll look into it and update as needed!
@@MamboDCS yea mostly, the inu is now longer and not immidiate, and there's 2 more ins alignment modes
Yup, so I've heard :)
I'll definitely look into it soon!
I've looked deeper into it and will definitely redo my tutorials soon enough!
@@MamboDCS okay, good luck with it
Oh my God it's just complicated as the space shuttle
Not really, it becomes quite simple after a few repetitions ;)
how do i make button labels in english
Go to settings>special>Ka-50>set customized cockpit to English :)
Awesome thanks I was unaware of this the whole time what a brilliant sim
Indeed it is!
@@MamboDCS Is there a fix for dcs stuttering
Yis blackshark gud
Very good! It's a lot of fun :)
