  1. I do when it comes to avionics but not the flight model. Its hsrder to fly than fbw and will kill you if youre hamfisted or stuoid. but once you grt some feel for it then its an absolute beastt of a machine, i LOVE it
  2. Yeh, thats my inly idea but if they find a valley im not gonna see a damn thing unless im in the same valley lol
  3. Yup, dont forget the control surfaces are HUGE with absolutely nothing stopping you effectively sticking a barn door out the window at supersonic speeds, even what you thought was a light pull almost certainly pulled way over 10 gs and the wings said er nope. Turn invulnerability on the do it again, the go to tacview and look a the numbers, youl wet yourself lol
  4. How do you know?
  5. It mentions hrust anddrag have been tweaked but it doesnt say which way lol
  6. What is sslr?
  7. I had no idea we had manual manuevering flaps lol
  8. Ah, were limited to sa6 or hawk. Any tips on how to find the buggers in the weeds?
  9. Great post thank you
  10. They are basically sttacking and we are defending, they make heavy use of terrain masking and it works frustratingly well. What is shorad?
  11. Nah this is our own mission on our own server, we do have a couple of guys who ca rio and im working on it but they fly on mission nightsusually. Wed LOVE dedicated rios but they seem to be rarer than rocking horseshit
  12. Low radius means high rate at low speed, i thought the cat was the daddy at that?. Whats the max (sustained) rate speed of the viper?
  13. I did it a few times in the 1st few days but then realised id lost too much speed and the aoa sky rocketed, now i find it difficult to flat spin even when i do want to lol
  14. What exactly is the f16s game? Rate fight? Nose position fight? Energy fight?
  15. Does manual sweep improve accelration though? Yehnits less drsg but wont the aoa increase causing more drag? I figured the cadc takes all,of thst into consideration so i rarely mess with it
  16. Fix jester using the lantirn lol
  17. Flying low is the only thing i could come up with lol. Problem is theyre not trying to get me theyre trying to attack bases, they fly the entire sortie radar off and hiding in valleys, highest they go is approx 250 agl. Our awacs and therefore dl has been piss poor at finding them either. You get the occasional bra call and then pooof gone. I flew 2 hours last mission and never saw any of them once, never had anything in my tid either. Had msybe a dozen bra calls and that was it. Theres multiple groups on both sides spread all over the map. Tacview showed several times that we literally flew past each other within a mile or 2 haha, some other members of my team had more joy but wow its hard to find them using those tactics. Im in tomcat btw whch els lke hard work looking down over land
  18. As above i fly in a group who are very good at flying low leve using terrain maskingl into a targrt im defending using the tomcat, theyre incredibly hard to find down there. Anybody got any tips or tactics? The cat doesnt seem good at looking down into the weeds i rarely get anything on my scope even when it turns out im looking right at them
  19. what does elegance have to do with a knife fight? i do the wingsweep and flaps a little bit but nowhere near as much as him, i dont wanna break the flaps lol
  20. Could somebody translate this for me please, im struggling to work it iut
  21. i got more than that :megalol: i did it with a hornet driver under the same circumstances and he couldnt beloive how mental the cat was haha. i was facing the other way having finished the immelman and was on the way back donw BEFORE he was even vertical hahaha
  22. Just for shits and giggles we were testing something with jnvincibility on and i decided to test the cat. Mach 1.3 on the deck and full back stick. Guess what peak g and peak turn rate was, hint both were ridiculous lol Ps oddly i didnt black out. Nearest guess gets sod all but internet points
  23. How do they measure it over 10gs? The gauge only goes to 10 doesnt it?
