SAM77

Setting myself up for maximum disappointment. 47 days to go! edit - I screwed up. Should have added my disappointment at no release in September (I understand its planned release don't get excited) not at quality of the module.

I have recently got back into flying the Ka50(BS2) online MP server and have noticed that the nav light intensity is weak in daylight compared to other aircraft. I've tested this at night with a parked aircraft and noticed that the increase in intensity of the nav lights (10,30,100) only shows up as lighting the ground beneath or the fuselage of the helicopter. The actual intensity of the bulbs does not increase at all. 10% is the same as 100% when zoomed out from the aircraft externally. Any chance this can be looked into? It's been a while, so I don't know if the BS2 is supported.

Also, you will pop a tyre if you land unevenly. I don't know at what speed you are hitting the brakes or if you are using the drag chute. If you're not using the drag chute, I would suggest you start and wait till your speed is down to 220km/h before hitting the brakes. Just to add that drag chute deploy max speed is 310km/h and brake application at 220km/h or lower. I got those numbers from the German MiG29 manual.

Thanks for testing it out, Ironhand.

I get all this, but I just want to have a full fidelity aircraft instead of an "arcade" FC3 MiG29. Also is it just me or are the radars all messed up in the FC3 MiG 29s. It seems like the A radar works better than the S. The A seems to pick up targets quicker than the S. I haven't done any testing myself only going off feeling using both models on the same MP server.

Aah ED just make a MiG 29S and the problem is solved.

Great suggestion. +1

Haven't been part of a squadron since the MS CFS II days but would probably join a virtual MiG 29A squadron. On the wrong side of the world though.

I hear you on being competitive. I fly the S version mainly and have recently used the A version to get ready for this. I find with the A its launch/hit/miss and run. Especially when its 1 vs 2. In the S you can be more aggressive, but you still have to know when to bug out. I'm still going to get it regardless. I just hope the number of purchases is high enough to make ED give more attention to Red.

I've been waiting over a decade for this. I really want the S version. Hopefully with enough purchases of MiG29A, ED will develop that as well. Definite buy for me. Now it's time to build a new PC

It seems to me that the shot of the nozzles is of the new 3D model. Different colours to the FC version. MiG29S anyway.

Reset my modem. Back in action

I'd be happy with a MiG29S first. Damn it, if they can do an F35 they can damn well give us a MiG29 with some actives. Btw I'm going crazy. It seems like every update ED does there is a change in the FM of the MiG29. Before the latest update muscle memory wasn't working when it came to doing smooth landings now it is much easier.

Which model MiG29 are you using? It is working for me in the MiG29S online and offline.

Fair enough still find it weird that there are separate keys for weapons jettison and fuel tank jettison. I haven't tried this with the MiG29A. Will give it a go later today. Thanks for the info.
