KewinSawicki Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 (edited) So today I thought I'd take the mustang up for some low flying in multiplayer and this happened. Edited April 29, 2015 by NineLine 'Fear the strike'

NeilWillis Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 You didn't throttle up, and catch up with the wing, so it could miraculously reattach too then? Excellent save, but I suspect your laundry might be a little toxic after that! :music_whistling: :music_whistling: :music_whistling:
KewinSawicki Posted April 29, 2015 Author Posted April 29, 2015 I couldn't believe it when I realised I was still flying haha! 'Fear the strike'
SilentGun Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 No way man... That did not just happen. this is so hard to believe! Now that... Is skill! :D Link to my Imgur screenshots and motto http://imgur.com/a/Gt7dF One day in DCS... Vipers will fly along side Tomcats... Bugs with Superbugs, Tiffy's with Tornado's, Fulcrums with Flankers and Mirage with Rafales... :)The Future of DCS is a bright one:)
OutOnTheOP Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 You didn't throttle up, and catch up with the wing, so it could miraculously reattach too then? Honestly, I was half expecting him to overtake the broken wing, strike it with the other wing, and end up balanced out by breaking that one, too... at which point it'd fly straight, just... well, not slow =P

Anatoli-Kagari9 Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Strange physics /aerodynamics / damage model.... Well... but lucky you were indeed :) Flight Simulation is the Virtual Materialization of a Dream...
sungsam Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Maybe send it ED for physics bug tracking. I imagine, there must be no wing structure so strong to cause horizontal roll at that inpact speed. :huh: DCS F16C 52+ w JHMCS ! DCS AH64D Longbow !
arglmauf Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Now name claim the maneuver, call it the SawickiSault:joystick:

I imagine, there must be no wing structure so strong to cause horizontal roll at that inpact speed. :huh: Who exactly would I send it to? Name is claimed now thanks to arglmauf haha! I trimmed it to f ... and then tried to keep going with the gates and crashed haha. I recon if i tried and land it I would. She was quite stable at slow turns anything tight was a disaster hence why i crashed. 'Fear the strike'
OutOnTheOP Posted April 30, 2015 Posted April 30, 2015 Strange physics /aerodynamics / damage model.... Well... but lucky you were indeed :) I don't see huge issues with the aerodynamic model; it seems to have behaved relatively believably (it seems like the engine should have dragged the plane more down into the dirt, but considering the speed at which the maneuver completed, and that the blades would be stalling, it's believable to me). What I do have issue with is the damage model. That aircraft was going over 350 mph indicated, from what I could see. The wings going flat-on to the airflow should have torn them right off. I think the way wing overstress damage is calculated in DCS is based on lift loading or something (in this situation, there's technically no "lift", since the wing is stalled, so maybe the physics engine ignored it?), but the raw drag should have snapped them. 1

Exactly. +Why is the wingtip that touched the ground and broke off flying faster than the plane ? :D The friction with the ground should have slowed it down more than the plane.
SilentGun Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 Exactly. +Why is the wingtip that touched the ground and broke off flying faster than the plane ? :D The friction with the ground should have slowed it down more than the plane.

Captain Orso Posted May 2, 2015 Posted May 2, 2015 LOL, that was awesome. The physics engine obviously doesn't take into account the exact same forces on the debris as on the aircraft, which is okay I think. Imagine how the system would run if the physics engine went from calculating for one object to instantly a whole number of objects --including their weight, form and velocity--, just so that blown off pieces flew exactly as they would in RL :huh:. What I wonder about more is that after spinning 360% the aircraft could recover so smoothly, as if the inertia of nearly 10,000 lbs. rotating at that speed could be so quickly overcome. Question, can you recover from a spin like that with a healthy aircraft that quickly :joystick:? When you hit the wrong button on take-off System Specs.

KewinSawicki Posted May 8, 2015 Author Posted May 8, 2015 The thing is I think because of the way I hit the ground I had actually very little say to the outcome that was 90% Luck, 5% Physics and 5% Skill hahaha 'Fear the strike'
