  1. Good work! I appreciate your effort! IMO it should be looking more blue than grey. Like that in the wip picture you've posted before the final version.  I think you were there very close to the blue color, at least as it appears on the various photos of the real cockpit. 

  2. Indeed the color looks different with various light conditions. If you want you can check also my own photos (in some you can see the direct effect of the light and the shadow on the color). 

     

  3. Off topic (sorry for that). Do you know the functionality of the panel that is right of the Navigation Indicator?  I know that we  had modified the CG to carry 4 SW and that panel has to do with the missiles selection, but could you describe with more deetail what are  those switches   doing  (TIPS, M, ST2 etc)? And what is their relation with the armament control panel on the right side. 

    About the radar videos, you can see short shoots of the radar display here  . There is also a french movie showing the radar display (have to find the video for that).  Don't know though if that helps you. 

     

  4.  And btw, about the possibility of developing the CG version - obviously as a payed addon (together perhaps with an early french -C  version , CZ etc)  i have to note that the father of one of the persons who are mentioned on the last page of Aerges manual (12. Credits - SPECIAL THANKS - Technical support) was actually a former CG pilot.

    Hi, this has been discussed in-depth before.

    Essentially the current behaviour is approved by SME with thousands of hours in the plane and verifiable by the performance data. Some errors here and there might still be present (and the behaviour at very high AoA and with asymmetric payloads will be reviewed). But, especially for subsonic speeds, we are confident that the model is very accurate.

    Some tips/clarifications: the F1 can carry a lot of fuel for its size, so I'd recommend not dogfighting unless you're below half full. It also likes to stay fast. It's possible to outrate other contemporary fighters but only with low fuel and keeping the speed high. Disengaging and extending to search for more favourable fight conditions also works quite well.

     

    According to the declassified real libyan F1 manual (several pages of that are already posted here a lot of times) there is an uncontrollable wing rocking between 20 - 22 degr. ''nose up'' (assume it's AoA) with combat flaps selected.  Is this currently modeled?  Also, i currently moddeled the first part, where it says that above 20 'nose up'' pulling the stick aft wont increase anymore the turn rate?

  6. AI is junk. Btw, i've seen that, for the F1 specific, the AI pulls more AoA  as the skill level increases. If you select ROOKIE . the AI flies  up to  the ''normal'' AoA limit of 17 degr. and the flying performa nce  is somewhat more believable. TRAINED AI flies iirc with 19 AoA etc, above that you will see some UFO - ballerina style movements.

  7. M2000C's stick displacement is 

    - Up : 43.2 mm (until the elastic stop - 54 mm til the mechanical stop position)

    - Down : 30 mm 

    - Ailerons : 12º. 

    Also the interesting part is that above 300kts the stick commands (througth the fbw) load factor and below 300 kts AoA (actually there is a transition zone   325 - 275 kts between the 2 control types). 

    Curious to know how's the Eurofighter's functionality in that area.

    A new trackclip won't help if the camera is picking up background light! You need to fix that first, by either dimming your room (closing the curtains) or lowering the IR-threshold setting of TrackIR.

    Yes i know, i play always with the curtains closed and it works fine. I' ve opened the curtains   only to test out  if the unit can catch the background light and has still functioning leds (as it seems to me to be the case).  

  9. So i 've did the following  test:  because my room is bright i've opened the curtain and the trackir   caught immediate  the background light, the left green light went on and  i had an abrubt  movement in the camera view window. So the camera unit seems to be working  and the problem must be the head clip. Will order a new one and see how it goes. Currently i don't have another trackcklip to test it out.  Thx guys!

  10. So my Trackir 5 stopped  tracking. The left green light doesn't come on  and no movement of the head clip  can be detected.  If i launch DCS the right green  light comes on. If i pause the device through the software both lights go on (orange), if i  unpause the lights go out . In device manager the systems appears normally. How can i determine, if the problem  is caused from the      base unit  (that sits on the monitor)  or from the (third party wired  head clip   that i have on my headset and i'm using for a long time now? 

    Thx!
