  1. Mass airflow increases as speed increases, the intake is designed to slow the air down to Mach 0.4-0.5. the engine cannot accept supersonic air but the intake spike creates Shockwaves to slow the air as it travels down the intake however the compressor still has to compress the air to gain maximum energy conversion. The engine is designed to Increase static pressure and decrease dynamic but I don't know the ins and outs of the mirage design. I know other aircraft in depth IRL but not this airframe.

  2. Yes you're right, fuel flow increases as you go faster as mass airflow through the engine increases. However the higher up you go the less dense the air. This means the engine finds it easier to rotate and so uses less fuel to rotate it as fast because overall the mass airflow has decreased as the air is less dense. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  3. Prowler, I'm sure I speak on behalf of the majority of the community when I say that your communication by not just yourself but the rest of the team and the engagement that we've experienced on the development of this module has been fantastic. Obviously things must be kept under wraps as it's the way the world goes round but I personally am looking forward to the day that it's released and the reaction you've had to the community feedback has been excellent and I'm sure it'll be a solid aircraft. Wicked job!!
  4. I'm just loving the fact that we get a FLIR image projected onto the HUD, low level flying without NVGs here we come! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  5. It is rather, we'll have to find out at some point though! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  6. They don't weigh to much actually and they pack a serious punch! Around 400-500kg for 3 missiles and launcher rack. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  7. Ah if only it was a GR9 in development! Brimstone would be fantastic!! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  8. Well that's reignited the flame of hope! All things are crossed! The hype from the PR alone has a lot of the community probably going to buy on release! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  9. No they won't wait that long, no updates on the Q3 release but we'll find out soon I'm sure. ED have been very quiet on the matter. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  10. Maverick works so hopefully a bit more tuning and we'll be cooking on gas! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  11. It's mainly for the hassle, they won't remove them unless necessary as the performance penalty with them fitted is minimal and it simply creates more work for the engineers. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  12. There is always hope! Best thing to have in these situations!
  13. Well they have another sale in that's ending on Monday. Do you mean the news letter that was emailed out Raven? Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  14. Waiting for the news letter for any announcements today... Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  15. I didn't know that, I normally plug in ground power and then when ready use the Rshift+end to close the throttle and thus shutting the engine down but putting it to zero without shutting anything else down. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  16. Ok that sounds about right, what I normally do if I intend to restart the engine is put throttle to idle and Rshift+end to close the throttle fully and then the engine will shut down and then do the pumps and LP. All it then needs is to reverse the process with the addition of hitting the starter before opening the HP cock (throttle to idle). Give it a whirl and let me know [emoji3] Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  17. Did you close the HP cock to shut the engine down? RShift+end? Or did you close the LP cock on the right with the guarded switch? If you don't close the HP cock using the throttle the engine won't start at all. Hope it helps. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  18. I use the thrustmaster TCM and FCS 1600 great combination of hotas and only needs 2 ports. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  19. Thanks, they can be quite picky by glad I could help [emoji3] Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  20. What is your level to refuel M2000 ??? https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink?share_fid=74365&share_tid=190839&url=https%3A%2F%2Fforums%2Eeagle%2Eru%2Fshowthread%2Ephp%3Ft%3D190839&share_type=t Here you go. Searching helps for items far back too.
  21. Rudder is very good for crosswinds to straighten an aircraft out before touchdown. On a dual engined aircraft it's not a massive issue as they can use the engines to help them yaw. On a single engine it'd be a larger problem but can be worked around, you'll have to use a bit of roll. Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  22. That sounds sensible, they're a bit pushed as they've hit a block but Q3 ends in October so they have a while to scrub it up, I believe they're slaving away on the textures as well as the radio's etc. As ever they work hard and it all takes time! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  23. Sunstag, that looks cracking! I'm all for it personally, it'll be engaging and a good learning curve! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. Haha all you can do is hope! I hope it will be true but we'll have to wait and see! Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
  25. Hopefully so, the latest from Razbam: 'The next one will be for real' then the poker face and the last picture was probably a penultimate tease, the image posted was a final tease and they've been quiet now for longer than normal so hopefully in the next dcs newsletter we'll get a pre release notice.
