Zeus67 Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 Do so enormous fuel tanks limit plane max AoA or other things during fight? Whenever I see Mirage with fuel pods, I wonder how it can fly with them. Dafuq? Yes, the affect the aerodynamics when using the EFM.

Gliptal Posted November 7, 2015 Posted November 7, 2015 At this moment there are several switches that can be programmed into a complex throttle/stick system like Saitek's Rhyno X-55 or the Warthog. These will be polished after open beta, so the answer is a cautious yes. At this moment you can assign several instruments panel switches like the Armament Panel/Radar Panel and of course the HOTAS themselves into your Warthog system without needing to mess with the .lua files.Nice, thanks. I was on the fence from buying, but this pretty much conviced me.
Gliptal Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 For the image you see, I was utilizing the standard flight path AP mode and testing out tracking an escorted aircraft using only the trim switches (in AP mode alters commanded flight path).This seems like a very interesting feauture.
Zeus67 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Folks, today we have passed a milestone. Today we have declared the EFM in Beta status. Due to that, from now on the aircraft will use the EFM exclusively in all our tests/development sessions. 1 "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.

Gliptal Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Great work! How does the jet feel now? Is there a PFM in the works as well?
Hook47 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Great work! How does the jet feel now? Is there a PFM in the works as well? Lol... The sentenc expressing excitement is hardly typed before someone starts asking about the next thing! Let's just step back a minute and recognize how big a deal this is! AWESOME work, Razbam! Besides, my understanding is EFM is the 3rd party devs equivalent to a PFM, and that phraseology is only used on a ED product

Problem is, on a forum it's quite hard to convey feelings: it's not like I said "PFM or moot!", it was a genuine question.
rrohde Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Now *that* is good news! Thanks for this. The inclusion of EFM from the start when us buyers get our hands on the Mirage makes a huge difference. The ground handling alone is like day and night, not to mention the handling while airborne. ED sets the bar really high, and our expectations usually soar as well - so, well done, RAZBAM! I was sceptical after I pre-purchased the M-2000, but now I am eager to fly it. :) PC: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | MSI Suprim GeForce 3090 TI | ASUS Prime X570-P | 128GB DDR4 3600 RAM | 2TB Samsung 870 EVO SSD | Win10 Pro 64bit Gear: HP Reverb G2 | JetPad FSE | VKB Gunfighter Pro Mk.III w/ MCG Ultimate VKBcontrollers.com

Flamin_Squirrel Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Oooh, I'm hoping this means we get EFM at beta release?
TomCatMucDe Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Oooh, I'm hoping this means we get EFM at beta release? I think that's what they mean
TomCatMucDe Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I knew I could trust you guys with delivering EFM. That's why I Pre ordered since day one

Flamin_Squirrel Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I think that's what they mean I thought so, but it would have been an assumption on my part, and that invites disappointment :helpsmilie:
unknown Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 (edited) I thought so, but it would have been an assumption on my part, and that invites disappointment :helpsmilie: Why an assumption? I think the statement is clear:" Folks, today we have passed a milestone. Today we have declared the EFM in Beta status. Due to that, from now on the aircraft will use the EFM exclusively in all our tests/development sessions." Why should they do this and give us a flightmodel which is internally not supported anymore? @Razbam Nice to hear this, so pre ordering 30 seconds after the announcement mail arrived wasn't a bad decision.

TomCatMucDe Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I see often a low number of views on the Razbam forum. I think fellow simmers still don't value what has RAZBAM so far achieved. Your continuous progress is astonishing. Great communication as well
