#Helicopters *refuse* to accelerate after rejoining a flight

Even at 100% throttle, they simply do not accelerate anymore, the speed keeps fluctuating around 80 (but ig it varies between helicopters)

actually I noticed this the other day but though I was just doing something wrong

soft plume
#

known this one for a while but i never realised it happens after rejoining

#

as you can see i'm basically stuck at 80 knots and no matter what i do, diving, raising the throttle to max or even stopping and then starting again fixes the issue

#

this issue persists EVEN AFTER YOU RESPAWN btw

#

the helicopter is basically softlocked

#

maximum throttle, pointing forward

#

i cannot reach my maximum speed

#

and every few seconds it just drops by 20 knots

I have this happening when I rejoin a flight in the AN-225

In my case after a couple minutes I just got reset and it counted as a crash

#

huh wha?

#

ok there's something wrong here..

#

i rejoined on a different server WITHOUT BEING SPAWNED IN

#

and the bug still persists

#

and the wind is only 10 knots

I havent seen this happen to me so this must be a relatively new bug

It could be wind, I dedass sold my kt2 for similar reasons (and cuz it's ugly as hell,) and I've also had similar issues with the MI-38.

And it IS wind based there, where if I go nose into the wind, my speed regains. I quit the KT2 flight and rage flew a 114 for the 5 mile journey, and with the MI-38 I would go nose into the wind and pick up speed, go right for a bit, nose in, go right...

#

So somethings weird

#

Groundspeed changes
