stupid question ... is the laser on ? Do you see the L flashing ?

so i guess i need to reduce the sensitivity of my rudder pedals and brakes, thanks for the inputs.

Starting at 2:50, F-16 landing ans use the aerodynamic braking by keeping the nose high. In DCs starting at 140+ knots the nose just falls down to the ground when actually you can keep it up to 100 knots for C models and 90 knots for A models, rough numbers.

Hi, Sorry, my bad .....uploaded the wrong file, here is the file. Landing test.trk

Here, this is a short mission, clean jet, caucasus map, no wind, no weather. At rotation i am pulling the nose up to go search por the 10°, then while i do that i raise the gear and you can see the pitch up tendency, not my input. On landing on purpose i tryied to butter kiss it, tried to keep the nose high, impossible unless you rip the stick and the desk with you. Once the nose came down i applied brakes evenly, as much as i could and see how the airplane veers off to the left of the runway ...without any inputs and i release the brake pressure completely, no rudder inputs and the aircraft makes a pirouette on the runway. test.cf

Okay i will show you my track, from there we can maybe look into things. No, not overweight, i land with maximum 3000 pounds of fuel in the tanks.

Hi, I am not an F-16 Pilot, whar kind of evidence are you asking for from me ? except that i can tell you that an airplane does not skid off the runway like that ? That an airplane does not require such differential braking to not skid off the centerline in no wind condition ? apart from my real life airline pilot experience on Airbus i can not give you any kind of evidence, i can give you a track, but it will be the same as for the rest of the community.

Hello DCS community, Did you guys noticed the transition that is noticeable when the aircraft transitions from landing gains to cruise gains ? almost as if the aircraft wants to pitch up by itself ? Behaviour on ground: it really feels wrong, i do not have fighter time but i have jet engine time and the way the F-16 behaves on the ground feels really off, especially on landing with no wind, it is almost impossible to brake evenly and keep it straight on the runway, i almost always find myself skidding down the runway with one rudder pedal almost fully deflected while trying to brake. The airplane has in general a tendency to weer off the centerline, this is normal in most airplanes but here i feel it is exagerated. It is very hard to do aerodynamic breaking; especially for people who have FSSB sidestick, it requires a huge amount of back stick pressure to keep the nose in the air after landing .. too much if you ask me. In most airplanes you have to apply a bit of differential braking and at the same time some rudder inputs to keep it on the centerline, but here it really feels off. But in DCs i feel like i loose control of the airplane very easily on ground, airplanes don't skid like if they were on ice like that. other users feedback welcome and i would like to know what you think and if this is something ED could please have a look into it ?

Cursor zero everytime you are done using your SPI. Else when you slew your SPI around you induce a delta from your active waypoint and you will steer indeed to the delta you created. Watch also for the CZ mnemonic being highlighted on your HSD accross your OSB at the bottom right of your MFD, it will highlight on the HSD page, TGP page, to notify you that you created a delta from your current active steerpoint. CZ must be part of your routine before you exit A/G mode.

Shortcut.

It is ready, but not loaded :)

I am the only to have the feeling that the jet is underperforming when loaded with bombs and jammer pod ? i know it causes drag, but i can’t get past 350 kts in level flight at 25 000 feet. My loadout is 2xAIM-120c, 2xAIM-9x, 2xGBU-38, 1xAGM-88, 2xFuel Bags,TGP,HTS and ALQ-184 long.

Truth is that the only time the F-16 feels right in DCS is when in CAT I. In CAT II it is very slugish and in Landing gain Mode it is even worse. Make sure you have it in CAT I for now until they fix it.

Hahahaha, it is all good mate.

Master ARM is armed.

Brace for Update

Good, no changes yet so it should still come out today.

no. this is a serious question.

Problem solved, precision mode turned off, works fine again. Thanks !

Will do

I use a FSSB R3 Okay, i will run a repair and report back

Hello, System specs: I5-7300HQ CPU @ 2.50 GHZ GTX1050TI 4GB Memory 64GB 1Tb SSD + 1Tb HDD MAP: Nevada MAP (happens on every MAP) The mission is a custom build one, a flight starting in the air that has for objective to strike a container on a target range. Track File: https://mega.nz/file/JxRxBQzb#ZFaav6JHNAVI7n8r67HbbU3ljSGvWHOsitGm7CTsUB8 Issue: When pressing the first trigger detent in order to fire the laser, the airplane is not responding as well as it normally does. Usually after dropping the bomb i make a left/right turn to offset from the attack axis while watching the time countdown on my TGP, when at 12 seconds i press the first trigger detent and the airplane immediately feels heavy and the roll rate is reduced and like i mentionned earlier it feels very heavy. I cross checked my keyfiles to see if something was wrong in that area, but i couldn't find anything.

This is a really good idea from ED ! Well done.

When are you pressing the weapon release button ?

A damn sexy airplane, I love the ergonomy of the cockpit and the avionics.
