Triggers cover

[Siegfried]

Just a thought / suggestion.

 

It would be better than the trigger guard had a combination of keys to turn up or turn down?

 

It is a bit ... wrong that every time you fire, it is lowered and raised. I remember that the KA50 has a similar trigger guards system that is placed in position by selecting the appropriate weapons.

 

It may seem a bit redundant, but if we already have cover switches and button cover up the landing gear, for another key more... and I think would be the most important of the 3 that I mentioned.

 

By the way, I was going to comment on the possibility of firing cannons and machine guns on different buttons, but I think it has been mentioned in other threads already.

 

Sorry for my bad english.

The trigger cover looks to me as if the pilot would slide their thumb underneath it, and then press the actual button underneath. Not sure if that's really a two-step procedure like in the Ka-50...

No, it is a flip-cover and when flipped open, it actually is used to depress the button in the front (facing away from the pilot) of the stick - just like a gun trigger. It also acts as cover for the second button on the top of the stick.

Well, did not intend to speak about KA50, but give an idea of what I mean. That trigger cover not move every time you shoot but it makes a sort of master arm.

There is few steps in order to enable a realistic trigger mechanism.

 

The first is split the omnia "Cannons Fire" in "Fire 1st Wpn/13mm" and "Fire 2nd Wpn/20mm" or viceversa. Btw already discussed into other thread.

 

After that by adding a Ka-50 like "trigger flip" we can have a Safe Guard as in the real one.
