Oh more just general learning more than anything, trying to learn and absorb as much information as I can and this flight concept recently came up, so I figured I'd give it a try. It's seeming like it isn't really applicable for the Hornet and is used in much smaller planes.

Yes I believe it was that very thing that caused frequent compressor stalls in the TF90. Thanks for the clarification!

Thank you SO much for the detailed explanation! That was sort of the hunch that I was assuming in regards to the maneuver and the types of aircraft that it is typically performed in. However right now I'm just in a mode of learning and absorbing as much information as I can, and this flight concept recently came up. But that was pretty much what my assumption was and thank you so much for the clarification and explanation. Very much appreciate the help!

Hello, relatively new user to DCS here (been using it about a year and it is my current obsession). I have a question regarding forward/side slips in the Tomcat. I have watched quite a few tutorials on how this maneuver is performed and understand the concept and fundamentals on what is happening well. However, whenever I try to implement the technique in the Tomcat it doesn't seem to respond the way I would assume it would. Even with full rudder in either direction and compensating with opposing bank and pitch it just doesn't seem to respond to the inputs. When applying full rudder in either direction the plane simply wants to roll and no amount of opposing bank seems to stabilize the plane. Granted this could be ENTIRELY user error (which is 99.999% likely), but I'm just curious what experience others have or what tips they might be able to give. Are others able to slip the aircraft successfully? Thank you very much for any help or advice you can give!

Hello, this is my first post and I'm relatively new to DCS (been using it about a year and it is my current obsession). I have a question regarding forward/side slips in the Hornet. I have watched quite a few tutorials on how this maneuver is performed and understand the concept and fundamentals on what is happening well. However, whenever I try to implement the technique in the Hornet it doesn't seem to respond the way I would assume it would. Specifically, it doesn't seem to respond to it at all. Even with full rudder in either direction and compensating with opposing bank and pitch it just doesn't seem to respond to the inputs. Just curious, does this have to do with the fly-by-wire sytem of the aircraft? Granted this could be ENTIRELY user error (which is 99.999% likely), but I'm just curious what experience others have or what tips they might be able to give. Are others able to slip the aircraft successfully? Thank you very much for any help or advice you can give!
