Looking for someone flying the Helionix system
I'm looking for someone flying the Helionix system with synthetic vision, like this. We are working on a replica of synthetic vision for flight simulation. The 'problem' we have is that we're not sure what happens to the 'wireframe' when you flight at high altitude. If you let the size stay the same then this happens:
https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....86dc02eae0.jpg So we're wondering. Does it disappear at a certain altitude? Or maybe it doesn't become smaller anymore at a certain altitude? Hopefully there's someone who has experience with this. I just fly a simple R44 :sad: |
https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....b85bebf07.jpeg SVS 2 at 3500ft LNRalph, It stops getting any smaller as altitude increases. I’m not sure at what height this happens. FNW. |
Well, I can have a try next time - but actually I really don’t use synthetic vision .... Not much mountains around here and for the smaller ones, I use the MFD1 with Nav Display and HTWAS overlay to find my ways through the valleys, if the overcast prevents me from flying over the ridges... |
FloaterNorthWest Thank you, that was what I expected. We're actually working on the Aspen Evolution 2000, the Helionix will come in the picture next year. We'll have to find out by then. Thanks for your help!
Flying Bull It is hard to find people that really use it :) And then you have to find someone who flies at such an altitude that this becomes a thing. |
Flying Bull, You should try it in poor weather on an approach. It helps with situational awareness as you drop out of the cloud in poor visibility. FNW https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....82d1e0d36.jpeg Automatic level off after a LPV approach. |

The difference between the angledisplay noseup/nosedown to the normal display also irretates, if you don´t use synthetic vision on a regular basis. Last, I don´t like the detaillevel - more, the lack of it. If I have to guess i.e., which waterway is displayed, I rather have nothing to guess about. |
FloaterNorthWest Do you have a rough idea of when it stops 'shrinking'? And how small it becomes? The picture you posted for example, at 3500 feet, is that about as small as it gets?

Is this a requirement that a fork always points into the direction of the next restaurant? :D |

The "handle" of the fork is actually Nr the "outer spikes" N2 Engine 2 the "inner spike" with a triangle N2 Engine 1 So its actually the the tripple indicator, which gives you clues which engine might be misbehaving and in which way (overspeed / underspeed / failure) ;-) |
We're getting somewhere... This is the Dutch coast by the way :Ehttps://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/pprune....0a420ed40d.jpg

The Dutch coast, it seems to be a really nice spot for climbing!
|
Well, switched on last night, but didn’t went higher than 1500 ft ground. Showed a little river , but not the town it goes through... and approaching my homebase, I didn’t saw the runway as in your picture. Ok, I came in - like helicopters do most time - directly - but no clue on the display.... |
Flying Bull, What software version of HLX is on your 145? FNW |

Or the flight Path is incredibly low. |

212 man, Do you mean the DH being set to zero? The DH wasn’t set as the flight was flown as a demonstration of the aircraft capability in VMC. FNW. |
LNRalph, I think the grid is controlled by the rad alt. The size seems to stay fixed once above the rad alt operating height (2200ft agl). The grid squares are 0.2nm and extend out to 4nm. FNW. |

Version D462C030504 (Step 2.0.3)
Should be fairly actual ;-) |
