OutOnTheOP Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) ...who, after five or ten minutes figuring out controls on the Sabre, had an uncontrollable urge to load 'er up with GAR-8s and set up a tail chase against a FW190D9. I couldn't help but cackle maniacally as the missile went right up his tail, ending the fight nigh-effortlessly for me. "Suck it, Hans! That's for all the grief when the AI FW190D9 first released, and took a zillion and a half rounds of .50!" Ahhh, it feels good. From what I've seen (so far), the F-86 is a dream of a module. The only issues I've had so far are generally related to my computer setup, which is very sub-optimal since I moved recently and haven't really put the computer back together right. It does seem to ground loop a bit on the easy side, though. Landing was a piece of cake, but as soon as I touched the brakes, it was doing donuts off the runway. Might be a setup fault with my toe brake axes, I don't know. *edit* I was impressed that the lock-on distance for the GAR-8s against the FW190 seemed so short... I think only 800 meters. I had previously tested them against the AN-30, and it seemed to get good tone against that from around 1.5km. Granted, I haven't done in-depth testing on it, just noticed it as I was toying around with the module, but if IR signature and radar signature are separately modeled, that's fantastic, and good on ya', Eagle Dynamics Edited July 26, 2014 by OutOnTheOP
Scrim Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Would make sense that smaller prop planes are hard to lock on with first generation heaters. I love it!
badaboom Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Haha!!! I can finally Out climb The Little Sausage eater and fill him full of .50 cal Lead!! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Slick Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 I'm loving it. Really one of (if not thé) the all time favorites. Now I need to join a squadron....
JMasterFlash Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 (edited) Surely I can't be the only one... Unfortunately, our new opponent (mig-15) seems to be quite a challenge though :( I did a dogfight last night with one, it may be that I'm not as good with energy management with the f-86, but I had my hands full.
