ctguy1955 Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I can take off fine in single player about 90 percent of the time with no take off help or assists turn on. When I go over to multiplayer, I just cant get off the ground for very long. what the heck is the difference ???????90 percent.trk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctguy1955 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) this is just the last example. I know its not pretty, but i normally do get off the ground and take off fine in the end...when it comes to single player. this is just so discouraging.

During takeoff and landing, even a slight delay influences the control. In multiplayer mode for takeoff and landing I increase my attention. for example in a single game, I freely take off at the Dora without fixing the tail wheel, in multiplayer I am more cautious and always fix it Edited April 6, 2015 by Neuman [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Core i5, 16GB RAM, GF-760, SSD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctguy1955 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 I always pick the DOW or Korea server, and they always have low ping. its disparaging to me to try over and over again in multiplayer, get frustrated, and switch to single player and be able to take off no problem. I know its something im doing wrong. I have messed around with the pedals and their value curves. 30% curve. my x52 hotas has given me nothing but trouble and I am returning it and am now using my usb X35T and x36F, and the feeling is different.

Neuman Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) You need more practice. When taking off just hold the right pedal. during the takeoff be cautious with the pedals, don't swerve pedals left and right. Hold the right pedal and watch the ADI arrows. ADI arrow should be kept at the vertical position If your plane want to do Barrel roll on the runway use the left / right split braking. But that only if your plane really want do that. to anticipate this you must control "ball" on ADI. And do not overpull the stick when you want to take off from the runway. Just hold it in position and your plane will take off when reaching the desired speed.

I wish the photo had the full image without the left part being cut off, but I thank You SO MUCH for your help ! My X52 joystick lights up blue and stops working, so I had to switch back to my old usb X36F and X35T for now. I wont be buying anymore Saitek ( madcatz ) products in the future. My old usb saitek is ok, but is very old now but it decent shape. Sure feels different when flying in DCS than the X52 Edited April 7, 2015 by ctguy1955 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctguy1955 Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Well I took off last night for the very first time in multiplayer. I guess I broke my landing gear by going to fast before I tried to raise them, and I ended up flying the whole time with gear down. I stayed close to ground and got to the airport, but before I could start my run, I was killed in my cockpit. Felt good to finally get up, but I will raise flaps and gear asap from now on. Lesson learned. Felt so good !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuman Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Try landing Dora without flaps. if you are not released flaps you can avoid bounce landing maintaining the speed (~180 km/h), that speed sufficient for the effective control of the aircraft. In DCS we have modern long airfields, not like airfields WW2, and we can well afford a long run on them.

Anatoli-Kagari9 Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 There is only one secret regarding takeoffs in the Dora: - Pull the stick back ( all the way back ) until you get to around 130-150 km/h, and only then ease it a little, not necessarily to neutral because you can well perform a 3-wheel takeoff in this bird, provided you do not pull aggressively when it get's airborne. The use of rudder to counter any tendencies to go left or right on the rw is still a requirement, but minor if you make sure the stick is pulled fully back during acceleration. You should also use full power for takeoff in the Dora, as opposed to the K4 in DCS where I find it a lot better to takeoff at max 1.4 ATA...
