  1. I dont get a left roll in a clean jet, I am just showing when I get an uncommanded left roll and it's only with externals
  2. The syphon system on the right side for the right external tank is the culprit of the left roll for me at least. This only seems to happen from a cold start jet. But it ends up with an approx. 200 lb imbalance. Left is heavier, inducing a left roll. This is with the FUEL QTY select knob in EXT WING. I cannot get it to reproduce from a hot start jet.
  3. Throttle and ICP yes
  4. Can we put the pods and baskets on the wings in the meantime?
  5. Since you asked about the P38, the ailerons were partially hydraulically boosted and partially powered by the pilot. If there was a hydraulic failure the pilot could still fly the aircraft, albeit with a lot more force involved. Systems back then were a lot lower pressure than they are in today's aircraft. Back then the pressures were around 1100-1600 Psi vs today on most aircraft the systems are at 3000 Psi. But it was a triple redundant system on the P38, a normal system, a auxiliary system, and an emergency system. Normal used the engine driven hydraulic pumps, if they went dead you had a hand pump in the cockpit that you could manipulate a valve to then power the entire system with the hand pump, and in a really bad situation you switched to the emergency system that had a different reservoir and lines but was pressurized by the hand pump. The weird part about the system is the brakes are actually only pressurized with the hand pump so pilots had to constantly be pumping away on the hand pump while taxiing to have brake pressure.

    Awkward...... Love your work gospadin
  7. There is only one publicly available Mirage manual online that I can find, please excuse my total lack of knowledge here, and it puts that Mirage at 11.3 t or metric tons for the max landing weight. Thats 11,300 kg. I see no mention of another weight in the limitations section of the manual. Which weight are you using Azrayen? Your numbers must assume that the CL tank is empty and we are landing with only 950 kg of internal fuel with the 100 kg of the tank itself? I'm just trying to figure out what the number is you came up with for Max landing weight, and did you actually mean Normal Recovery Fuel and not Max landing weight? I apologize just trying to learn some limitations for the Mirage because the information is very sparse.
  8. I deserve this thustmaster HOTAS because it is more realistic than the real controls on an Embraer
  9. I don't think you'll be disappointed
  10. Does anyone know how the "effect" works for the TGP? Could someone make hot white or hot black textures so they appear much "brighter" in the TGP? Like a replacement texture specifically for a vehicles heat map
  11. Leave the hot mic up and it should work
  12. The cover was removed for refueling on the KC135 which has a different basket from the navys baskets...i thought the Iranian F14s now have fixed refueling probes after they were refit ..they no longer retract
  13. You are the news about it apparently tifafan
  14. Ok cool thanks for the clarification Mojoe
  15. Right Mojoe...every virtual wing has a similar training program but no one uses a two seat trainer to conduct training. Its all conducted through a chase plane or external views, not saying thats bad but actually being in the pit with someone would make training a lot more valuable
