As I wrote in the OP, I have checked my equipment. I had a monitoring program open beside the sim when I saw this behaviour, and the roll axis was sitting at 50.00%.

Maybe it empties the fuel tanks asymmetrically? But they're all pretty central, I think, so that shouldn't make much of a difference.

They were switched in the patch yesterday. I was under the impression that this way is correct, do you know more than I?

Basically everything on Airboyd's channel is worth watching.

This is one of those situations where I don't know what that guy means, but I know it's probably wrong.

Cool. What kind of catastrophic failure was it?

I'm amazingly good at ebaying. I've done this a few times: see an auction for something rare I want end at a time I'm usually asleep set my alarm early to get up and try to snipe it wake up tired as hell in the middle of the night, drag myself out of bed make some coffee, sit down at computer get distracted by something, forget to place bid

Yeah, the suspension isn't there yet; LN have stated that they're not finished with the tweaking, so I imagine it'll get updated sooner or later. Until then, when it's this lively, we'll all get really good at landing it.

I don't blame him, they look awesome.

You could also get the stop code from the windows logs.

Don't worry, it'll break again in the next patch. :p

Wait, screen blackouts and red edges? Those are g-effects, buddy...

I think there is, yes.

Also flaps need to be fully deployed, right?

I know, but he was trying to detach it. That's how he got confused; the ripping off from thrust coincided with him pushing the button. I guess I should have said "Why the fugg were you trying to detach your chute at 100% power?"

For the SPS, you have full flaps? How low is low speed? You should not exceed 360 indicated, IIRC.

Why the fugg were you detaching your chute at 100% power? Emergency go-around?

Thanks, friends. The specific danger I envisioned was increased wear; I agree that it probably won't explode. :p The centre is stiffer without them (they help when stick is pulled), but that's fine since my stick is extended. It makes the centre more defined which is nice if you, as did, have a small bit of play at the centre.

Anyone else notice this? I can swear that the 21 tends to roll slightly left on its own. Several of my flying buddies say they've noticed this too, and I've checked that it's not my controls. So: bug, feature or imagination?

Well, flying on a given radial lets you approach the beacon from the specified heading. Useful when you want to get to an airfield and arrive matching the rwy heading. Today, some squad members and I used it for taking off in crappy weather: we took off at 30 s intervals, then turned and followed a certain radial away from the field. Since we were all on the same radial, we were guaranteed ending up on a line later when we broke the clouds. If you know your current radial and the distance, you can essentially fly in a trail formation even though you can't see eachother, say leader is at radial X 10 km out, 2 is at radial X 8 km out etc. There lots of cool tricks you can do with your approaches too, check the pics on p. 115 and on in the manual. Also, your current radial plus the distance to the beacon form a polar coordinate system in the plane, so you can easily relay your position to others. Think Bullseye.

Try running the repair tool.

Aw. Well, if Sweden is out I always cheer for Canada in hockey. Incidentally, here's a pretty sweet video of that.

Shamelessly quoting myself; does anyone know?

Yo-Yo, I just wanted to say, I love you.

There's only one patch. If you updated today, you have the latest. MiG-21 rev. 1350 is included in the latest ED patch (which I'm almost sure is the .524 update).
