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. - Hry

Thanks for text Matt. With it, I will make the translation much faster.
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...
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!
“Set Lo to whatever the crew is comfortable with to avoid a meeting engagement with the ground.” Milspeak for ‘to avoid crashes.’
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.
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)
Posted 6 seconds ago. Hyped isn't enough to describe the feeling of these videos being released
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
"Wags here from Eagle Dynamics" is one of the top things you will hear today.
God I can't wait! Got this baby pre ordered. Checking back here every 6 hours to see if you released a video 🤣
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.
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.
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
I peep those new insurgent units. Looking forward to this!
Nice to see some technicals in game, keep up the amazing work!
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
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.
Another fabulous looking module. Am very much looking forward to seeing it when it comes out. Good job all round guys.
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?
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.
Love seeing those technicals on the ramp!
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!
Amazing piece of machinery and design. Fantastically simulated.
I almost got a nosebleed from all that extreme advanced info. How will i ever be able to fly this wonderful thing.
Get good at the Huey. It's an awesome starting point.
Wow, this is going to keep me busy for a while
lawrd have mercy preordered the apache instantly havent been able to think of anything else since then
"You have now completed 1% of your AH-64D training" 😳
Technicals! WHAAAT?! I started video excited and then I saw the technicals! Finally! :-D
Not going to lie, this has a steep learning curve.
Welcome to the AH-64D.
Absolutely!!!! I can't wait!!!
Thanks for the new vid, Wags.👍👍👍👍👍👍
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.
Lots of technicals on that airfield. Nice targets to have in the game.
Very realistic avionics 🤩
(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 🤯
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.
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!
Thank you ED & Matt ! Need More Stuff 😂
The king is back!!
WP 1 , the magical distance.
NICE
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.
Nice Taliwagons!
I like it when you say bezel button..
I want to fly this thing irl so I can’t wait for this to come out
Apache \m/ and look those insurgents vans! Can't wait for melt down them with the 30
Thanks wags and all at ED!
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.
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.
My button-pressing inner child is going to love this!
I expect there to be numerous unexpected engagements with the ground to start. Wouldn't have it any other way.
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 👍
Wow an 18 minute video on part of one MFD. This is going to be another A-10 learning process?
czcams.com/video/Ebo0aLLPYwA/video.html
You'll find the Apache is much more intuitive than the A-10. Well, except for how hard flying helicopters is.
Let's goooooo already!!
Dem technical bois
Very cool Wags :)
R.I.P. Thrustmaster's MFD Cougar with those 24 OSBs ;)
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.
Good morning!!!
@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.
I can't wait until the start up video is released so I can figure out what keys I want to bind
Will our technical master degree be available on pdf ? :)
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
If only I had one to follow along with 😬
i never see the the L AUX or R AUX fuel marked when pressed..
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 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...
Glad to be getting more videos will there be any more Apache videos coming
Yes, certainly.
Glad to hear when thou is the question of the hour
When will we expect the Apache release?
I just purchased the Huey for 50% off. It’s my first helicopter in DCS. I recently saw a CZcams 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.
Yes
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 :)
Will we have to boresight the HDU?
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!!
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 😂
Will we have the option to remove the center tank for the full magazine?
It is planned for after the early access release.
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.
It’s happening
BEAST!!!!!!
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
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.
More!!!
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
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
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?
чёт долго релиза нет, он вообще в этом году выйдет ?
где там русскоязычные тестеры .. может вам помощь нужна..?
Is there any comparable engine/fuel modelling with that detail in any of our dcs fixed wings??? 😜🤪
All of them, minus the FC3 aircraft.
i love the Apache and cant wait for it but THOSE F*CKING THECHNICALS I NEEEED THEM IN MY GAME xD
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!)
RELEASE
WHEN
Somebody gotta talk about how the rader altitude is 420 ft and the airspeed is 69 kph or whatever.
I'm not going to lie, he lost me after Hey everyone its Wags from Eagle dynamics.... 😂
TECHIES, also pls make the aa be able to engage ground targets.
What do you mean by "aa"?
@@schweizerluchs7146 well all the spaa(a) pieces.
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.
But can it run Doom?
Doom, no. Skyrim..........absolutely
This is incredible. As a side question will we be getting the M-TADS and M-PNVS with color view and XR as described in the marketing video? Specifically referring to the M-DSA and M-NSA. Thanks
Those systems are only on the newer software versions of the E model
@@Nexala17 Darn. Oh well
Technicals inbound!!
nice tekies, kinda wanted crazy tekies like the ones that look like kill dozers and the ones with UB-32 on the back
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.
