I can't collect longitudinal acceleration with this software, but thanks for the advice.

Hi guys, there is a way to collect flight data from DCS? I mean like longitudinal, or normal G accelerations or speed and other data from our flights? I see some graphs with this things from the MiG-19 tread, and I would know how to do something similar to my flight experiences. Many thanks in advance.

Wow, I'm really impressed. Caucasus map, Su-25T high settings in 1980x1080p and I was always above 100fps, with peaks at 145.

Ok man, really thanks for the advice!

Hi guys, I've recently bought a new Dell G7 7790 for different uses. I'm a university student so my need was a laptop, otherwise, I would have taken a Desktop. Specs: CPU - i5-9300H 4.1Ghz GPU - GTX 1660Ti RAM - 32GB (16GB stock, now I'm waiting for the 32 I bought separately) Storage - M.2 NVME Now my goal is to play in 1080p with Ultra settings, or at least, high settings; and I know that those specs should be enough to do it on Desktop with 50-60fps average, but I really don't know how much difference there may be between Desktop and Laptop. For hardware difference and optimization stuff. Despite storage and thermals question, that I will take under control, you guys think that my laptop can run DCS on 1080p with high/ultra settings at 40/50 fps average?

Are the graphs (of the measurements in play) of the longitudinal accelerations available to quantify the acceleration of the plane? (And therefore the performance of the engines) I saw that for other models like the Mig-19 they were available.

Not everything has better performance in the game. The engines for example. There are reports of AW in which Valery Menitsky (one of the most awarded Russian pilots, and the chief Mikoyan tester) said that in afterburner power it normally takes 8 sec. to accelerate from 600 to 1100 km/h at low altitude. There was specified the weight of the plane in reference, it was a configuration for just over 33.000 lbs (15,000 kg or slightly over). However, in game, we are not at these levels, if I remember correctly someone did some tests and staying on those values we talked about 12 seconds. Which is about the time taken by an F15 to over 44,000 pounds. Thanks to all of the answers and to have clarified my doubts, I will be able to start with clearer ideas now.

"Search is your friend" - I have already looked in this section, but the answers present only partially answered my doubts. "More nations operated 9.12s and many more 9.12s were built than 9.13s." - I don't understand this part. Thanks anyway for the answer, also the aesthetic aspect is certainly important, a model better defined and with more liveries is certainly more appealing.

So do you recommend the S version, despite the higher weight? P.S. Why we don't have the 2nd generations of 29? Like M or K? (9.15 or 9.31)

First of all, thank you for your reply. What does it mean: "The S is applied to the 9.13"? So if I understand correctly there is no difference in performance and the best and most up-to-date choice is the S version? I have read that has an older graphic and the in-game plane weight's more.

Hi guys, I would like to know which of the three versions in play today is the best choice for use/purchase. Are there differences in terms of engine performance and weight/performance? I've seen that from a while, finally, the Mig-29 has a PFM, is it applied to all three versions? I think I explained myself, besides this, I would like to know what differences there are in terms of countermeasures and armaments, and which are recommended for a bit of fun in PvP servers. Thanks a lot in advance to everyone

Many thanks, I'll read it as soon as possible.

My pleasure

I found this AW report along with one on the Su 27, maybe someone could find it interesting. Part 1 - http://aviationweek.com/site-files/aviationweek.com/files/uploads/2015/01/1990-%20MiG-29%20Pilot%20Report%20%281%20of%202%29.pdf Part 2 - https://aviationweek.com/site-files/aviationweek.com/files/uploads/2015/01/1990-%20MiG-29%20Pilot%20Report%20%282%20of%202%29.pdf It is a beautiful 360-degree view of the Mig 29 and with interesting comments from pilots like Valery Menitsky. There are also quite interesting data that are difficult to find on the net regarding performance. In this report, Menitsky said that:"[...]in afterburner power it normally takes 8 sec. to accelerate from 600 km/h (322 kt.) to 1100 km/h (591 kt.) at low altitude" It's really interesting considering that an F-15 at 43.600 lbs (clean) can accelerate from 600 km/h to 1100 km/h in 13.5 seconds. (10.000 feet) Maybe Menitsky he was referring to a gross weight conf. at about 33.000 lbs as reported in the article. In the other report the Su 27 was a bit slower, in fact, he can accelerate from 330 kt. to 540 kt. in less than 10 seconds. Anyway, i hope you will enjoy the read and that in this section you can also post other information on the Mig 29 outside the game! I leave you with the conclusion of the article: "The Western pilot would be wise to detect and shoot at the Mig-29 from a distance using his high-technology weapon system because if it comes down to a close encounter with infrared missiles or guns, a good Soviet pilot is a definite threat."
