In this DCS: AH-64D video, we’ll explore the engine, flight, and fuel MPD pages. Perhaps not as exciting as weapons and sensors, these pages can be critical for operations of this helicopter, and a good understanding of their functionality is important.
Note: This video is based on a pre-release version which may be different than the release and later updated versions.

Thanks for text Matt. With it, I will make the translation much faster.
This is so crazy how detailed this is, very familiar with all these displays as used to maintain them
Not having such experience it's nice to know from someone who does that it all stands up. Pretty cool 👍
I'm irked at the fact there's no telltale wire on the Master Zeroise switch. Haven't had a good look at the CPG collective yet!
69 knots at 420ft, very nice Wags.
Also, in-sim time started at 13:37 o'clock, there's probably more.
Nice.
😆
He knows his audience, lol
I dont get it...
“Set Lo to whatever the crew is comfortable with to avoid a meeting engagement with the ground.” Milspeak for ‘to avoid crashes.’
I have been showing your content to my coworkers and they’re mistaking it for the real thing. Can’t wait to bring my daily life home and fly the bird around. Keep it up Wags & ED 👍🏼
A soothing 18mins of info. Just need to retain it :D
This is looking fantastic as expected (and hoped for)
Looking forward to this one guys, thanks
Matt, you are a whiz with all of these systems! This is extremely accurate info! Love flying this machine, and can’t wait to do it even more on DCS
It helps that I have several Apache pilots assisting me.
Nice to see some technicals in game, keep up the amazing work!
Ahhhhhh, finally! Technicals in DCS! 😍😍😍 Please, please pretty pretty please, make one without armament, so we can enforce Rules of Engagement with the neutral coalition and require pilots to PID stuff... This is almost better than the Apache, as it benefits ALL modules. My heroes!
Strongly seconded!
I vote for Wagner, dropping all tutorials in one day and release the Apache tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃. Lord we are thankful for all the knowledge Wagner provides and ED for endless hours of entertainment they provide us. Amen.
I was trying to absorb this while teleworking and couldn't so I stopped working and still couldn't absorb it lol. Can't wait to get my hands dirty in the rotary world 👍
I expect there to be numerous unexpected engagements with the ground to start. Wouldn't have it any other way.
Wags: Now on the fuel page you can see I have 4 fuel tanks, this is not something you would normally do.
Me: and I took that personally.
XD
Love the detail! Is the fuel check something for maintenance/start-up or for checking battle damage?
It's to keep track of your burn rate. It lets you know the time you can expect to run out of gas.
I'm not going to lie, he lost me after Hey everyone its Wags from Eagle dynamics.... 😂
I assume you are using the Warthog throttle on this video, could you turn the LED lights on it to FULL or OFF brightness? This will stop the slight zoom input fluctuation because thats caused by the PWM circuitry for diming the LED lights introducing magnetic interference in the hall sensor. At 10:29 you can see the zoom axis being quite unstable by looking at the edges of the screen, they are jumping
Kinda bananas that Army enlisted service members can fly this thing but other services don't let enlisted personnel fly.
Next Cold Start ? 😁
Wags
Maybe anyone knows, why all keyboard units in planes have buttons ordered alphabetically and not QWERTY?
You type one handed. QWERTY it terrible for that. Most of these aircraft were designed before typing was a mainstream skill... So it makes much more sense to leave it in the normal alphabet order.
@@ConflictGamingGroup yeah, makes sense that way. I just have rough times typing on keyboard in A-10, really throws me off.
@@eoffsock I actually bind all the numpad keys to the number pad on the keyboard. Most of what you end up typing in is numbers and it's just easier to have those numbers bound.
@@ConflictGamingGroup I don't have numpad, but yeah. Numbers are not the issue anyway, only symbols.
Letss goooo
More, Daddy Wagner... 🥵🥵
4275th!! 😆
Speed, 69. AGL, 420. Nice.
Nice
I get the 69. What's 420 ?
@@MarcTNL it's a big number for pot heads and kind of a meme in general.
@@hook86 20th of april (4/20) is weed day or some shit
You better watch out
You better not cry
You better not pout
I'm telling you why
*AH64 is coming to town*
The Apache:
Knows when you are sleeping
Knows when you are awake
Knows if you have been bad or good (unless you are a journalist in Baghdad carrying a camera)
Seriously, I'm more excited to hear Wags' voice than that of Santa 🎅😂
aren't they the same person ?! :)
Ahaha this year, Wags IS Santa lol
There are a thousand reasons to not buy this this module. Luckily, I have a poor memory and forgot all of them.
Well, for me its different. When i hear Wags voice i need to pull my wallet, with Santa i get presents :).
Yup. The Apache module is literally going to be my Christmas this year.
(Heavy Breathing)
This is gonna be a fun one for you, Chuck
Goodness me, I will not be surprized if the guide for this monster ends up to be 1000+ pages long 🤯
If this is how long it takes to go over the fuel and engine pages then we have our work cut out for us lads!
This is the first time I've actually been nervous for an upcoming module, the complexity on this thing is intimidating.
Posted 6 seconds ago. Hyped isn't enough to describe the feeling of these videos being released
These Toyota Land Cruisers give you a hint on some of the operations for the apache on Syria map.
Very cool Mr. Wagner
After the mass-freakout of showing off the C-RAM without these in parallel, I thought it was time.
@@MattWagner I'm just excited for someore blue AAA, as for the trucks, well my gbu-12 has expressed interest in meeting them
God I can't wait! Got this baby pre ordered. Checking back here every 6 hours to see if you released a video 🤣
"You have now completed 1% of your AH-64D training" 😳
I peep those new insurgent units. Looking forward to this!
"Wags here from Eagle Dynamics" is one of the top things you will hear today.
Apache \m/ and look those insurgents vans! Can't wait for melt down them with the 30
Technicals! WHAAAT?! I started video excited and then I saw the technicals! Finally! :-D
Every time i see the apache, thunderstruck starts playing in my head. Can't wait!
Same. Totally crank AC/DC while blowing up sh** in VR with other helo modules.
Search and Destroy by Iggy Pop and the Stooges and the Airwolf theme song run through my head.
Mine is the FSU war chant.
Wow an 18 minute video on part of one MFD. This is going to be another A-10 learning process?
ua-cam.com/video/Ebo0aLLPYwA/v-deo.html
You'll find the Apache is much more intuitive than the A-10. Well, except for how hard flying helicopters is.
Are we going to be getting a startup video soon Wags?
It will probably be the last video prior to release given the number of systems that must first be completed.
@@MattWagner Thanks Matt, i appreciate the reply
Oh this sounds more like end of December than early December... 🙄 @Matt Wagner
You guys are really changing the Helicopter game with this one, i'm beyond impressed and so excited for it's release.
They are, absolutely.
To bad the Kiowa must have gotten shat on
@@MrTurboTurkey No, it's still in the works, that's going to be a fun one to fly as well.
@@TheDisabledGamersChannel havent seen much in a year?
Not going to lie, this has a steep learning curve.
Welcome to the AH-64D.
Absolutely!!!! I can't wait!!!
Better learn it right. This is the kind of pages you look at after taking a beating from that pesky Shilka hiding on the side of a mountain...
Indicated airspeed of 69 and alt. of 420... alright wags lol
Very realistic avionics 🤩
Another great example of Hardcore Porn to brighten my day. Along with many other people here, I am sure, I so want the EA version to come out. I have annual leave from work pending and severe amounts of stimulants to keep me awake through the nights. I might even consider illicit ones if needs be :)
I was watching the video progress bar whilst playing the video, hoping it would slow down and delay getting to the end of the video. Off to watch 100 more times, and also looking for Casmo's talk through of Matt's video
Thanks Matt
Will our technical master degree be available on pdf ? :)
Wags give it to me straight, will I be ignoring my children on Christmas morning because of all the fun I'm having flying the apache?
Yes, the answer is always YES.
Not if you have your kid in the CPG front seat for you!!
Woke up, thought man it would be cool if there was an Apache video since there hasn’t been one in a bit, picked my phone up to this.
Stellar work guys
But can it run Doom?
Doom, no. Skyrim..........absolutely
😲OMG A New Video! After 3 weeks I started to develop withdrawal symptoms like a Drug Junkie. 😆
lawrd have mercy preordered the apache instantly havent been able to think of anything else since then
Oh its a Toyota Insurgency Simulator now😂
Well... I guess I'll just learn how to fly it (I mean, not crash) and use the weapons. lol
At the very start of the video, are those new vehicle types? I literally cannot find something like those trucks with mounted guns on them for my anti-insurgency missions/mission editor. Unless those are just statics that don't move.
They are coming as "active" units.
@@MattWagner Awesome, thanks! It is a very insurgent style vehicle.
чёт долго релиза нет, он вообще в этом году выйдет ?
где там русскоязычные тестеры .. может вам помощь нужна..?
Wow, this is going to keep me busy for a while
I watched it - nice! Why is the next one taking so long? This is an outrage!
Because we just released several new Viper features and instruction videos for those had to be made.
Does that mean videos will be coming faster now?
@@MattWagner it was meant as a joke. Didnt come across right - my bad.
I wish they would add some assistance to control the torque effect of helicopter for those that don't have and can't afford anti-torque pedals.
I want this AH-64D but unfortunately I won't be able to fly this without pedals...
When insurgent vehicles look more shiney and newer than your own reallife vehicle...
When the turbine gas temperatures exceed 896 celsius, = =
When the Np values exceed 106%, ‧ᆺ‧
My IP always says “that’s why you can’t learn this on UA-cam!!” , but now I’m having my doubts
R.I.P. Thrustmaster's MFD Cougar with those 24 OSBs ;)
Thanks for the new vid, Wags.👍👍👍👍👍👍
I can't wait until the start up video is released so I can figure out what keys I want to bind
Thanks for TOYOTA [white cars] for sponsor this video hahaha
Let's goooooo already!!
i never see the the L AUX or R AUX fuel marked when pressed..
Dem technical bois
I just purchased the Huey for 50% off. It’s my first helicopter in DCS. I recently saw a UA-cam video of a DCS Squadron preparing for the AH64D Apache launch by doing training in the Huey. I’ve never flown a helicopter and after seeing that video and seeing that the Huey was 50% off, I figured it would be a good idea to buy the Huey, so I can start learning the basics of flying a helicopter, in preparation for the Apache, which I’m definitely going to buy.
When do you expect the AH-64D to be released? I’m really hoping it gets released before Christmas.
I really start want to start flying with that squadron if they're getting ready... I'm in Apache pilot in real life and I'd like to start getting a good group together and teaching them the ways of the force.
WP 1 , the magical distance.
NICE
i think DCS technical is coming... maybe DCS NSTV ! non standard tactical vehicle... lol
@Matt Wagner.
I'm not as well versed in bashing gravity into submission so there maybe an obvious answer for this.
Around the 8:00 mark you describe the stabilator position. Specifically that exceeding a specific airspeed based on that position will result in a loss of pitch authority.
From what I understand attitude including pitch is usually controlled by the swashplate and possibly even rotor tilt, but what you're describing sounds more like a fixed wing concept.
Oh......wait. Nevermind. I was getting the numbers you were on about backwards.
Exceed a certain speed and the swashplate pitch authority can no longer offset the tail stabs lift.
It's counter intuitive because the chopper at high speed forward flight is significantly nose down and may need MORE downward stab to maintain the desired angle of attack. So while downward stab seems like a negative pitch moment it's angle of attack may actually be quite low.
Remember the difference between AoA and angle of Incidence folks
The speed indication he is referring to is only if the stab fails and no longer responds to movement commands. In this case, you shouldn't exceed the indicated speed for the reason specified.
The stabilator isn't for airspeed, it's for maintaining a suitable fuselage attitude. In fact, at high speeds it is slightly trailing edge up to prevent an excessive nose-down attitude. The fuselage pitch can be adjusted independantly of the rotor disk because of the stabilator.
On the flip side, at low airspeeds when flying at NOE altitudes, the crew can manually slew the stab trailing edge down, which will lift up the tail and give the crew better over-the-nose visibility.
What's the username and password going to be, to sign on?
wha, you so sneak
ED should sell physical flight manuals with each module. This is way too advanced for my tiny brain.
We tried this in the past but it was a net loss.
Yah I can finally be a Apache pilot 😂
Everytime you put a new video out about this bird, I think it is released! 😡 👈 That's how look when I find EA is not available yet! (love you Wags!)
I would lust like to point out Wag’s airspeed and altitude values he held the entire time….
Nice.
As stated at the top of the screen near the start, active paused was used.
@@MattWagner mag's just acting like he didn't do it on purpose lmao
I can't wait for this AWT, but what I noticed right off the bat are the technical trucks. So Wags are we getting new and updated models and equipment? I really hope so because the insurgents need more stuff to blow up besides a few cargo trucks and 2 infantry models. Any word on a updated FARP?
The Technicals will be coming in a later update. The old FARPS are a thing of the past. You can now create a FARP or FOB anywhere using the new ME features.
@@MattWagner thanks for the reply. I can't wait for new models just waiting on more types of insurgents to use in ME.
@@killajaden891 Agreed, would definitively love a fleshed out insurgent faction, will be good fun doing COIN ops :)
looks like we are finally getting technical vehicles as well. Cant wait to start placing down terrorist targets to eliminate in Syria. Every year is a good year with ED. A true industry standard!
i love the Apache and cant wait for it but THOSE F*CKING THECHNICALS I NEEEED THEM IN MY GAME xD
I like it when you say bezel button..
Oh the wait.. she is so close.. these teaser vids.. the anticipation is killing me. I have a Cold War 2.0 campaign to build!🤘❤🤘
Great video!
Sooooooo…who wants to play apache trivia once it is out?
It’s not like I‘m going to know any good questions or answers but even this small keyboard is getting me really hyped 😂
Another fabulous looking module. Am very much looking forward to seeing it when it comes out. Good job all round guys.
Waoooo. This video is truly technically deep. I would surely be watching this video several times to get the hang of those sub-systems pages. Fantastic work ED.
What's the odds of hydras, hellfires, and 30mm all being available on launch day? What are the odds all three will appear in the launch video?
This is going to be a steep learning curve. So many things. And this were just a few subpages on one display in one cockpit.
What is the projected release date? I must know so I can get off work that day!
I believe it's the 15th or 16th
@@fastfed That isn't a reliable source at all. Have seen that many times.
@@fastfed Steam has said 15th for weeks but it still doesn't matter. It'll come when ED release it.
My button-pressing inner child is going to love this!
So is there a way for developer to write an app and connect it to dcs world 😬? Couldn’t find any documents on website or forums, asking for a friend with need of an app for controlling mfd and.. 😬 using an ipad would be fast, cheap and simple solution just saying 😀
I have a guide for doing just that... ua-cam.com/video/CCdtauSXx5o/v-deo.html I've been playing my girl in Arma, but it's basically the same setup for DCS. It just turns your tablets into second screens.
Amazing piece of machinery and design. Fantastically simulated.
Thank you ED & Matt ! Need More Stuff 😂
please have loud bagpipes playing thru the next video...
это очень сложно, пропадает интерес
I wonder... does Wags really record this all in one 18 minute stretch, with no mistakes? Or are there outtake reels out there we need to see?
There's no way I could read that off for 18 minutes without fluffing a line, and in such melodious tones as well! If so, kudos to his voice acting skills.
Wags is no mere mortal. Not only does he read them in a single take but he makes it up as he goes just intuitively knowing where to click.
I see a lot of me crashing in the future with this bird 😳
So we've partially looked at one MFD. Our tutorials should be complete then some time around 2027!! I love all this detail
They are both identical, so you are learning both. And in the Apache, we call them MPDs.
BEAST!!!!!!
Is there any comparable engine/fuel modelling with that detail in any of our dcs fixed wings??? 😜🤪
All of them, minus the FC3 aircraft.
