  1. The Warthog stick gimbal is garbage. Go for a Virpil or VKB stick if you can afford it.
  2. Is your next video ready yet?! :megalol::music_whistling: Looking forward to it :thumbup:
  3. What are you doing on here? Get to work on those videos! :joystick:
  4. No-one is complaining about hype (at least in the last couple of pages), simply that the hype HB generated is a factor in the community pressure they now have to release the module. Read what was actually said, not what you think was said.
  5. I like the AB torching the dumped fuel.
  6. ED got less flak because they knew better than to whip up so much hype. Criticising and complaining aren't the same thing. HB have my money and I have no regrets about that, but that doesn't mean they can't do (their PR) better. Clearly I'm not the only one who thinks that, and who are you to disagree?
  7. Well put. Totally agree with this. Whipping the community into a frenzy is unwise when timescales are months not weeks. I've no doubt it'll be a great module though. Really looking forward to it.
  8. Just subscribe to their youtube channel.
  9. If there's more than one target, it would be easier to target the one you wanted I guess?!
  10. There isn't any alignment I believe. You can turn the INS knob straight to nav and it seems to work fine.
  11. I wish I could add rep for that. Brilliant!
  12. Great video, looking forward to further in-depth previews.
  13. Hidden by the area reserved for displaying cautions most likely.
  14. Bleed air comes from the engine compressor, and is quite hot (~300C). If the bleed air ducts ever leak, this hot air is a serious fire risk; the bleed air valves are there to shut off the bleed air to stop this from happening. This is why the bleed air valves form part of the fire protection system, and close during the test. Bleed air is used for many different things including pressurisation of the cabin, fuel tanks, external fuel transfer, canopy sealing, G-suit pressurisation, gun gas purging, canopy anti-ice and some others I can't quite think of. It's cooled before being used for these things, of course!
  15. While useful, I don't think that it applies to the OP's question.
  16. So how about keeping quiet until then?
  17. Net code? What are you talking about? I doubt HB have any control over it. How they handle shared cockpit probably is, but that's something else.
  18. Winter extends to March 20th. While I don't rate HB's marketing/PR (they should have said release during Q1 2019) you're three months too early to accuse them of a money grab.
  19. I do this too. Seems to work well.
  20. Oh please. The OP made no demands or complains, just a polite request.
  21. I pull 1% of speed in G untill 250kts; at this point I reduce bank to 30-45 degrees while dropping gear/flaps. Seems to work ok.
  22. I already explained why.
  23. Your drawing is wrong. Whether the target was on the course shown or has turned 90 degrees from straight to side on, the missile would already have corrected and would not be pointing straight at the target.
  24. You keep focusing on turn radius when it's only part of the equation. A faster missile has a wider turn radius, but it also has to make smaller course corrections to succeed in hitting its target. It doesn't NEED to turn as tight.
