DCS Mi-8: Doppler Navigation Tutorial
Channel: vsTerminus
Date: 2020-04-27

Navigation in the Mi-8 is rudimentary, but powerful and precise when used properly. Let's take a look at how we can get the Hip from A to B and back again without getting lost.

Sorry about the missing cursor - ShadowPlay has a bug right now where it won't record that, and OBS wasn't playing nice with DCS for some reason.
