@@Nyxx2115 Yup! I do plan on releasing it, but 1.2 has a bug that prevents collective buttons from working. It's fixable, although I might just wait for 1.3 to avoid that headache entirely.
The OH-6 was loved by it's pilots due to the Design making roleovers more survivable. They crashed them quite often and just got into a new one. One of the reasons why the US Army was looking for a "cheaper" option and decided to get the OH-58😅 and you wouldn't like to crash and role an OH-58 like you could an OH-6 ;)
They weren't exactly looking for a "cheaper" option as such, they were looking for a more sustainable one. The problem with the sustainability of the Loach was that with the initial contract Hughes was losing money on every single helicopter they made, because they undercut the competition too hard. And when they had to price it so that it could actually be made, they lost to Bell in the competition. =)
1.2 made it a good bit more stable, but even on 1.1 I eventually didn’t have all that much trouble flying this thing. I think I have about a 5 curve and 90 saturation. With a direct, unassisted link between the controls and the swashplate, this sucker is about as raw of a machine as we have in DCS. It really forces you to know what the rotor system is doing when you use your controls and to stay ahead of it, or else it’ll escape you (often violently). 10/10, it’s no wonder the (seeming) majority of pilots who have flown the OH-6/500 family say these are their favorite to fly.
Love it! Within a minute, you not only kill some random Joe just tooling around the HLZ on his 4-wheeler after work, you decide bring the office to the lake to go swimming yourself. R&R in 'nam was lit!
Suddenly a Huey was hovering outside my window and it dropped smoke grenades outside my window. So, I wondered wtf is it doing that for? Well, out of the earth came 10 soldiers. They had been hiding there for a week, shitting in plastic bags and peeing in bottles.
Another quality and humorous vid by Ralfidude. Excellent!! To be honest I’d love to see you revisit the A-10C 2 and do a new, updated zero to hero series. Love the content keep it up.
The oh-6a was possibly the most fun ive had in arma 3 prairie fire. Sitting off the side, tree top level, calling in daisy cutters and dropping arc lights onto enemy aaa positions...
This Dev needs to speak to Polychop to get this OH bird into the game as a official mod. Control curves, Trim and modeling the throttle to either a slider or roll switch on your joystick ;)
I fly one of these IRL. Watching you made milk come out of my nose. Which is unfortunate, because we get raw milk straight from our friends' two-cow dairy, and it's $8.00 a gallon. But my wife makes awesome yogurt and butter from it. And she lets me play DCS, even though I spend most of my day flying crop dusters and my boss' OH-6A.
9:40 OMG .. the Magnum Pi chopper skin makes me want to get DCS and a rig. When you add collective why does it try to kill me? The answer to his question is torque. You're adding more torque and you have to add more left peddle to counter.
4 mins in, definitely plays different than expected, but then again i know this thing from gunship 3 so yeah, also the drone like handling definitely matches in this and gunship 3 lol edit: only thing thats different between it and the one in gunship 3 is the ability to have ANYTHING more than the minigun
Paid modules and most of the vehicles being locked behind hefty paywalls is why I haven’t played DCS in many years. It would be cheaper to buy a Hammerhead from the Star Citizen pledge store than get all the aircraft I want in DCS.
8:11 nobody notice that or we just pretend we don't hahaha. Btw love the editing of this video! Think ill download it myself. How is the performance on it? You think it will run well in vr?
Maybe it's due to a difference of personal experience, but 5.9Gb for a large-ish mod isn't really too crazy. I currently have a mod installed that eats of around 40Gb (Unification for Dawn of War) and there are some out there which are even more. Just my Assetto Corsa mod folder, while it is a bunch of different mods and not just one, has currently a little bit over 1TB of mods. If I include all of the mods in my personal archive for all of the games I enjoy and wish to keep a record of I have close to 7TB of just mods for games. I know it my sound like a lot to some people, but storage is cheap. You can get an 8TB external these days for about $100. 16TB drives can be found for under $200. Speaking figuratively a Gb just isn't as "big" as it used to be.
Considering the way the 160th guys fly their Little Birds over my place of work this might be more of a documentary than you realize.
Man, I REALLY really hope the OH-6A makes it onto more public servers. The amount of chaos... it would be glooorious!
I'm assuming you were flying on controller as usual? If so. You think you'll be sharing your config for it?
controller goat

@@Tuuvas Fair enough. I had completely forgotten about the collective bug even though I joined the discord server to find the solution.
@@Nyxx2115Profile is now available in the DCS user files page. Give it a shot and let me know how it goes!
I kept thinking the mosque and church felt familiar then he opened the map to show that ralfi was indeed committing unspeakable things over my city
A Cops and Robbers game mode with those choppers would be amazing
My man Ralfi was on a bet how many times he could fit the same Clip into a video... I like ☻
This thing was unbelievably featherlight when first introduced: at 557 kg empty weight OH-6A was just as light as the old Italian Fiat 500 microcar !

There's a guy in Low Level Hell who gets at least three of them in the same day.
That Obi-Wan clip actually got funnier each time
Imagine you put a Tunguska at the end of that road as the final boss of dudes with aks
One thing that would make this more realistic is a grease pencil mark on the windscreen you use as a gun sight.
now you need a Bell-222 with an Airwolf skin to re-enact any Airwolf episode you care to name
😅
The Loach and Little Bird look like two of the few airframes that are as easy to fly in video games as they are in real life.
This was not a OH-6A video. This was a compilation of Obi-Wan saying "Another happy landing".
Yes and?
Little Bird? YES. All the yes. This is the mod I've been waiting for.
2 Videos in 3 days? Didn’t know it was my birthday lol
He will be gone for 6 months now ;p
@@luschmiedt1071 I must hibernate
@ralfidude did you move to Australia?! It is summer what animal hibernates in summer ;D
You take your time and keep trickle feeding us

Oh the bag of grenades!! That's awesome! Little nod to the first pilots who created the legacy of the killer egg!

You have no idea how happy it makes me seeing you upload. Well worth the wait!
*ANOTHER HAPPY LANDING*
ANOTHER HAPPY LANDING
Glad to see you posting content on the regular again. Cheers, Ralfi!
Very fun heli. I didn't have any control issues but then I fly helis 90% of the time now. Thanks for the recommendation. 👍
Did you get v1.2? It's MASSIVELY more stable than the v1.1 was, a completely differen beast. =)
@@jubuttib Yep, it's 1.2.
Love the Magnum P.I. Version. TC would be happy.
opened YT to calm down after a couple of hours in DCS. And hey, a new vid!
Dude I don’t know when you hit 100k but congrats! I been loving the videos and the edits have been very funny!
It's an extremely fun mod, I'm glad to see it finally get some more main stream tuber appeal.
This is what mods are about - sheer, total fun ! 😀😅🤣😂Thanks as always for the wonderful videos.
Nooo, you are not allowed to have fun in DCS 😮
And now do some shenanigans in the Kiowa
Meh, didn't but it
@@ralfidude Phantom?
I played Gmod with WAC for over 10 Years now, I know how to play this one
17:06 My favorite moment. "We're in the clear" followed up by "We're NOT in the clear" and our boy turning into Neco-Arc. NUUUU
I've missed your shenanigans. Thanks for the laughs, I needed this today
Suddenly a Huey was hovering outside my window and it dropped smoke grenades outside my window. So, I wondered wtf is it doing that for? Well, out of the earth came 10 soldiers. They had been hiding there for a week, shitting in plastic bags and peeing in bottles.
Babe wake up, Ralfi posted a DCS video
What else would he post...
Another quality and humorous vid by Ralfidude. Excellent!! To be honest I’d love to see you revisit the A-10C 2 and do a new, updated zero to hero series. Love the content keep it up.
Absolutely huge Blackwater in Najaf vibes from the in theater clips dude. Looks like a barrel (roll) of fun to me!!
The oh-6a was possibly the most fun ive had in arma 3 prairie fire. Sitting off the side, tree top level, calling in daisy cutters and dropping arc lights onto enemy aaa positions...
The mod makers can't miss this opportunity to use an AI of R. Lee Ermey's voice for the tutorials.
The most painful fun would be either Hydrofoil Generation full manual or GP Bikes with direct steering...
Your screams are hilarious bro,looks like you had a blast literally lol
they even have the magnum pi skin sweet
Looks great. Reminds me on Bf2-bfbc2 flying with helicopters. It was always this way... but mastering it was fun :D
Your strained voice sounds exactly like Pickles from Metalocalypse.
"somewhere to around heeya" simply amazing.
What an amazing video. Thanks! And as always: Happy landings! xD
honestly I expected you were going to say that war thunder is the most painful fun, but I'm glad to see its DCS and a mod
Perfect heli, perfect video, perfect landing
Ralfidude and the killer egg chronicals
2 video in a week, this made my day better
THEY FINALLY ADDED THE LOACH IVE BEEN FLYING IT IN RISING STORM FOR YEARS I CANT WAIT TO TRY THIS
I manage to fly this little bird without any stability problem in the last available version (1.2)
This Dev needs to speak to Polychop to get this OH bird into the game as a official mod.
Control curves, Trim and modeling the throttle to either a slider or roll switch on your joystick ;)
oh Ralfi, this Kind of video with quick jumpcuts to some fire memes and such and is so good dude i love it
shouldn't put massive curves on. That kinda ruins the experience. Reduce X and Y saturation instead. Much more consistent control
Oh lord the RPG firing squad was hilarious
6:15 gotta love that Dragula segment
*clips the powerline, then just casually rolls the helicopter over on the on the ground:*
"Awwwwwww... Come on."
That's quite alot of happy landings
WAR THUNDER ! no wait, that one got no fun, and is pay to ... live
You guys are doing some nightstalker shit
Now that I have figured out the VR, WE NEED TO FLY THIS... There is nothing better then an helicopter whit too little power.
bro this pure fun to watch xD

This was good fun.
It’s always a good day when Ralfi uploads.

When you add collective why does it try to kill me? The answer to his question is torque. You're adding more torque and you have to add more left peddle to counter.
like the Magnum PI skin (red/yellow/black stripes)
2:44 where da rudder at?
Thanks, Ralfi, I needed the laughs today :)
rams a person "Not even my fault man" 10/10 delusion :D
The bois having no idea what VNE or overheating actually looks like is pure gold
"Oh my god why is that happening!!!!!"
😂😂😂😂
SUMMARY: Not a Happy landing
So many happy landings
Why do I know you still had at most v1.1 when you recorded this? :D
V1.2 made it a LOT more stable. =)
You have been promoted to the rank of Barney Gumble :)
You should do more videos about mods because mods are usually janky and janky is always great for content...very funny content.
Took a sip for every happy landing I’m shitfaced😂
drinking game : take a shot every time you hear another happy landing
man i regret so much not buying the HUEY when it was 10 dollars
0:30 bro turned into Mr. Crocker
4 mins in, definitely plays different than expected, but then again i know this thing from gunship 3 so yeah, also the drone like handling definitely matches in this and gunship 3 lol
edit: only thing thats different between it and the one in gunship 3 is the ability to have ANYTHING more than the minigun
Kiowa crying in the corner rn
What is that music around the 20 minute mark? I love it.
Dynamic rollover has entered the chat.
Unrelated but a Sim Copter mod for DCS would be lit
IamTheCEOofMcDonnellDouglas
around 11:19, this makes me wanna play gunship 3 with the cayuse LMAO
Time to cosplay as Eric Stoller and go hunt Apoochies.
That fucking bit with the Dragula remix is fucking lit, and I wish you did it for longer. Really should get into this when I get a new HOTAS.
absolute hilarious....i laught my ass off....great video^^
16:20 You basically created Mogadishiu
Legends say he still has happy landings 😂😂
Paid modules and most of the vehicles being locked behind hefty paywalls is why I haven’t played DCS in many years.
It would be cheaper to buy a Hammerhead from the Star Citizen pledge store than get all the aircraft I want in DCS.
Every OH-6 variant is a LOH (said Loach) to me. I don't care if it was made in 2024, it's still a LOH to me.
Light Observation AirCraft, Helicopter

Such a good video great job!
