How come this aircraft never stalls. Jump in the A-10, F-15, Sabre etc and try and do continuous loops in those aircraft.

 

This one however allows you to fly continuous loops, never stalls out or the pilot does not black out . Aircraft seems to handle like it is on rails like the russian aircraft in FC3

I can relate, had this impression as well. Also I don't ever get any cockpit shaking during high AoA :)

Thank you,

 

report noted.

 

 

For the proper g-effect, go to Options -> Gameplay -> G Effects drop down menu -> select "SIMULATION"

 

Cockpit shake: Options -> Special -> MiG-21Bis -> cockpit shake level 100% (normal value)

 

If you have this value at 0%, all shakes are prevented.

This is overridden in one of the next patches, so high AoA shake will be available regardless of this setting.

Power through superb knowledge, training and teamwork.

No, you're just playing a training mission with damage off.

And I've taken a SAM hit from a Linebacker - the aircraft definitely took damage AND most of the wings ripped off.

 

I also deliberately tried to exceed 28deg AoA while diving at 900Kph - no smooth loops here!

 

Not only did the plane go out of control, but by the time I had it fought back under control, I realized the engine had flamed out.

 

I suspect that if your plane is behaving too nicely, it's a settings issue.

Hi!

 

What would you understand by the meaning of stall? Low airspeed? That's completely wrong. You can stall any type of aircraft (airplane or helicopter) as long as your wing or blade angle of attack (you must understand exactly what that is) exceeds a critical limit at ANY speed. You can stall an aircraft's wing even at Mach 2 if your angle of attack is beyond critical, regardless of the fact that you'd have a lot of G's in that case.

 

It's hardly understandable what you say is wrong about continuous loops with the MIG-21 as compared to other aircraft. Any aircraft can do continuous loops with a higher or lower altitude decay after each loop (depending on T/W, T/D and glide ratios) if the angle of attack is not exceeded (which is the ONLY thing that can be related to a stall). So there's nothing out of the ordinary even for an A-10A or C to do continuous loops even if it looses altitude after each loop pass, but as long as you don't pull beyond critical alpha ("told" by the stall warning sound for the A-10 in particular), you have no stall. Please put into a better detail what you mean about continuous loops and stalls and you believe to be wrong.

 

Cheers!

When you can't prove something with words, let the math do the talking.

I have an insatiable passion for helping simulated aircraft fly realistically. Don't underestimate my knowledge before understanding what I talk about!

Sincerely, your flight model reviewer/advisor.
