GGTharos Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Thanks IvanK! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IvanK Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Looking at the dash 1, as to the HSI the only time "Wind corrected data" is displayed is with steering mode selected to NAV then Ground track is displayed by the pointer on the HSI.

wilbur81 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Anyone willing to post a video of the following: You (in an F-15C) vs. a SU27 (with AI set to Excellent), guns only, with a neutral start head to head, no stores or external tanks. This scenario was a win for me literally every time out in the Eagle (unrealistic, I know). Now, with the new 1.5 open beta FM updates... it's a 'cat's game' nearly every time, with me just running out of gas.

It's definitely not going to be entering the fight with a full tank. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushmanni Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 I just measured the turn rates for new flight model compared to the old one and there's about 1.5 to 2 deg/s loss in sustained turn rates compared to 1.2.16. F-15C, Sea level, 100% gun, 100% fuel, 4xAIM-9M Thick line is 1.5, dashed line is 1.2.16 paras jatkuva kaartonopeus = best sustained turn rate kulmanopeus = corner speed pienin kaartosäde = smallest turn radius nopeus = speed kaartonopeus = turn rate 1 DCS Finland: Suomalainen DCS yhteisö -- Finnish DCS community -------------------------------------------------- SF Squadron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sslechta Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Nice. You gather that through TAC View or something?

Bushmanni Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Data is gathered with a lua script and then plotted in Excel. Each datapoint represents a 5 second average of turn rate measured from change of direction of velocity vector and any non-sustained non-level turns are automatically discarded. I can share my script if anyone wants to validate my data or make more measurements. I checked my data against TO-1F-15A-1 data and it's seems slightly worse than F-15 with F-100 PW-100. It's hard to judge as my configuration isn't identical to any of the configurations in the -1. Going with the gross weight alone you would expect about 16 deg/s for my configurations gross weight at 0.75M. But my configuration (44430 lbs) has less drag, 20C temp and -220 engines compared to the similarly heavy configurations in the -1 but I can't figure out how much difference that makes.
