Hype Performance Group H160 launches 27th October on www.hypeperformancegroup.com at a price of $49.99 USD
With thanks to HPG for giving me the opportunity to fly their new H160 and what a beauty it is! In this video we take a look at the helicopter through a flight over Rome and look at some of the systems including the autopilot take off and how the helicopter recovers to the landing site if take off is rejected. We also look at flying a VOR radial and an ILS approach. There really is so much to this helicopter and this video is one of many!
We're also on

The sound when you went outside at 26:49 gave me goosebumps! Thank you for another fun and informative flight!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks! Yes the sounds are great aren’t they!

[@tomfisher8201]

Hi, I like your enthusiasm regarding rotary-wing flying. I'm a retired ATPL rotary-wing, CFI, IFR + Commercial Fixed-wing. I enjoy your in-depth flights. One comment, don't raise your landing gear until 1. you have achieved translational flight, 2. >300ft AGL so you have time to get your gear down should you have an engine failure because you cannot hover on one engine. Cheers.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Hi Tom many thanks for that and you are absolutely right about the gear. I keep forgetting that! I love getting into helicopter flying. It is something I haven’t done in the real world and it’s great fun doing it in this sim plus it’s a nee challenge for me. Always learning!

Fantastic video! So happy you decided to go the youtube Way!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks!

[@user-wz7pw7sp7r]

Awesome video and the more I watched the better it got. I have to say that I laughed so hard every time you chatted with the 'co-pilot'. Hahaha. Gold! But I am sold, this is an awesome rendition of the H160 and cant wait to fly it.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it! Yes bit of a one sided convo with the co-pilot there! 🤣

[@volkerjansen3901]

Just starting to watch the video, but your preview is the one I was looking forward to!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Hey many thanks Volker! I hope it doesn’t disappoint!

[@volkerjansen3901]

@@Dreamsofwings Sorry to dash your hopes, but it absolutely did not disappoint ;) I think I will take the H145 to Rome in a minute. From a rational point of view, the H160 is not so different from the H145. But it just looks so sleek and sexy that I will buy it the moment it is released!

[@Dreamsofwings]

Couldn’t understand your comment and then saw what I had written! Have corrected it now to what it should have said! My apologies! Glad you enjoyed it! The H160 has a slightly different feel and the extra automation adds a new level to it.

[@arclight4625]

Wow, that thing looks beautiful!

What a great video on what seems to be a very cool sim addon. Can't wait to get my hands on one of those. I do hope that on the release version they fix the main rotor, someone seemes to have hovered a tad too close to the hangar wall. :-)

OEI Hi and Low selection is the amount of TQ the single engine will provide until the NR droops. On the EC135 there is a selection button on the collective that allows you to cycle between the two. OEI Hi is usually limited to 30 seconds and Low is limited to 2 minutes. Depending on obstacle clearance ahead when you have the engine failure will determine whether you use 30 second power or just 2 minute power

[@Dreamsofwings]

ah great, many thanks for the explanation!

[@ShadowSix]

Bit late to the party, but I can add some information regarding operation of this aircraft's predecessor(?), the AS365N3 which uses the OEI Hi and Low system. Slight differences between Class 1 and Class 2 profiles, but OEI high is automatically selected when the FADEC detects the engine failure. As mentioned already, it gives you 30 seconds at the engine's highest OEI power rating, limiting available power for you so that you only need to concentrate on selecting the appropriate NR. On a clear area profile after TDP for example, you would then select OEI Low once you hit VTOSS and have started climbing. Now you're into the 2 minute rating which allows for climb to 200' and acceleration to Vy. Once you hit Vy and climbing (or if the OEI light is flashing) you would hit the button again to drop into MCP. @@Dreamsofwings

[@ImpendingJoker]

I hope they bundle the action pack and the initial version together, as I don't feel like paying for the helicopter essentially twice. It's why I never did it for the 145.

[@Dreamsofwings]

I believe the action pack is coming later. Like the H145 it will add the new helicopter roles and missions capability.

[@dabneyoffermein595]

Jiminy Crickets, Can't wait for this to hit the shelves. Looks like they nailed this but I'll wait for you to do a test flight before I buy it. Maybe they'll have the collective fixed (the issue you pointed out in this video). I'm also wondering if I should wait to buy this AFTER I have upgraded my Intel CPU from a 12900K to the 14900K using my same motherboard z690 Asus Rog Strix "E" DDR5? What's your opinion?

[@Dreamsofwings]

I think the collective is down to my settings and not the H160 so I wouldn’t let that put you off. My CPU is an I7 8700k so you’ve got a better one than I used for it already!

[@PilotPete]

Is this VR or head tracking? Great video 👍🏽

[@FurioLP]

You landed at Villa San Pietro Hospital, in Rome. Today this Helipad is not in use. This is declared unsfafe. 😢

[@Dreamsofwings]

Oh wow! On google maps it looked it looked well maintained. Thanks for letting me know!

[@FurioLP]

@@Dreamsofwings NP, it was one of the beautiful Helipad in Roma, but, like many other, for no maintaining or fou acoustic limit, was closed. In Rome, the only operating Helipad today is Gemelli, San Camillo (Called spallanzani in the HPG Suite) Tor Vergata and Bracciano. The other is all closed. I'm a Italian Rescuer, so I often work with HEMS Crew.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@@FurioLP that is so sad they closed them! Seems such an obvious thing to need at a hospital too as I am sure you must find with your very important work.

[@Aleksandar6ix]

So when a helicopter like this has wheels, can you land and take off like a fixed wing using a rolling start? How often does that happen? I've seen them being taxied on wheels...

[@Dreamsofwings]

Yes in theory although my understanding is it is a very short roll. I guess you might use a rolling take off if you were heavy maybe.

[@FritzWeinrebe]

Normally with heavy loads pilots do the rolling takeoffs. The movement of the air over the rotor disc will give extra lift. There is a maximum Groundspeed limitation which you cannot exceed. Hence the rolls are normally short and into wind.

[@PlmRaidersFan]

Also useful if your power limited when recovering and have runway available, you can do a roll on landing.

[@d.miller6047]

What voice effect are you using?? I like it

[@Dreamsofwings]

Many thanks! It’s all in the edit afterwards, not ‘live’ unfortunately. I like to think it adds a bit of immersion to the video.

[@comandotim]

H 145 melhorado,

[@akalaification]

If you change out your cpu, it will get rid of the stutter and eye strain without having to shell out for a new gpu. I just got a 7800x3d and it made everything buttery smoothe, even running star citizen.

[@Dreamsofwings]

Must admit I don’t often get stuttering. I suspect something else was going on here but not the H160.

[@akalaification]

​@Dreamsofwings maybe from recording at the same time. It is just apparent when you change your camera angle. That's why I thought i was the cpu, because it still scrolls very smoothly. Thumbs up for the video as well.

[@akalaification]

​@@Dreamsofwingsthe stuttering when changing camera angles is what made me upgrade. Got a x670e and a new cpu up from my 3700x while Still running my rtx 3060ti and it is night and day. My eyes no longer strain because of the jitter. Dcs may be old, but it taxes the system.

[@Dreamsofwings]

@gdwnet many thanks!

[@FritzWeinrebe]

At 1:16:26 the AP actually went to ALT mode to fly level at 50 feet on the RA. That was just before you took over manually. After flying an ILS the H160 will do a fly level at 50 feet by itself.

[@Dreamsofwings]

It is a very clever helicopter!

[@shinkicker404]

I want to see something like this fly an ILS, for hilarity. I've seen the big Sikorsky S92's come in and out of Broome and they fly those approaches like an aeroplane. With the auto-take off, I'm kind of surprised there isn't an autoland feature or a land assist... or is there and I have just forgotten? Been quite a while since I've flown the H145.

[@Dreamsofwings]

I am guessing you haven’t gotten to it yet in the video but I do shoot an ILS approach towards the end 👍🏻

[@shinkicker404]

@@Dreamsofwingsliterally a minute after I posted you said you were going to do the ILS, hahah.

That would be a question for HPG but I suspect because it uses a separate app to do some extra things.

Wonderfully crafted by HPG. Bummer its such an ugly design by Airbus Helicopters. Hoping for Sikorsky S-76 or an AW109 in a similar quality.

Lol I have found the design has grown in me but you are right, HPG have done a great job with the modelling of it.

@@ozstriker1984 The fact that you can release the joystick and the helicopter wont even move, or maybe moves only in 1 axis but not both at the same time, it has nothing to do with the h125 for example
