When flying this superb helicopter, do you guys get some poor frame rates when looking out the window? I've noticed some serious stuttering when only flying this module and usually at an airport with static aircraft lined up on the tarmac. Don't have any problems with other modules, just this one. I'm assuming it just needs to be optimized.

You guys have same experience?

I have some sort of a monster machine, and usually I have no frame rate issues...
Except when there are mirrors involved.

Make sure that the side mounted external rearview mirror is closed and try again.
IF it can be closed. Can't remember right now.

Those mirrors on the Mi-8 cannot be closed. All mirrors in other aircraft work fine so I'm guessing the cockpit of the current Mi-8 module needs optimization or something got introduced in the 128 upgrade. Before, I had no problems so something is going on. Guess I'll have to wait and see what ED does.

I've got a fairly modest rig, but I haven't had any problems with the Mi-8 recently. I remember that I did have frame rate issues with it in 1.2.7, but they seem to have been resolved for me in 1.2.8.

Hhmmm, it is just mind boggling. One version it works fine, the other it doesn't.

Is it possible to remove the pilot/copilot models?
