The Mig feels like a fighter again

The roll rate at high speed is probably not going to change a whole lot, as it's pretty accurate at the moment.

 

"Stability" refers to the aircraft's response to inertial and aerodynamic upsets, ie how much it rolls when rudder is applied, how strongly it pitches down in response to increased AoA, etc.

.....Also, the old nose wheel steering is back it seems.

That's true. And why is that? Feels horribly unrealistic! Why can't it be adjusted to work like in the MiG-15 or L-39? :joystick:

I distinctly remember noticing this behavior in early 2016, when I first got it, so it's not new. At the time I assumed it was a very weak power cylinder going to the nose wheel or residual pressure in the brakes.

I beg to differ. I've tried the Mig over the weekend and there is absolutely no roll inertia. Im not disputing its top roll speed, but it seems to roll at the same rate regardless of airspeed and angle of attack. It is also extremely responsive, as if its ailerons move instantaneously. This is clearly not the case in the real Mig21, and I think that Dolphin even acknowledged that this is something that they didn't have time to tweak properly for the last patch. (They were focused on the Starforce issues).

 

So expect a tweak to the insane roll rate.

I'm gonna point to the F-5 again, at high speed it feels a lot like the MiG does now.

 

The roll rate and inertia at low speed definitely need some work though.

Yes, this issues is acknowledged by Dolphin and the team, will be fixed in the next patch. I asked him about that :pilotfly:

I have to record a video concerning the landing pattern, approach and landing. I have impression majority of users are thought to do it wrong.

 

I'll try to do it following week, for the Open Beta.

 

oh please do!!
