addde Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 Hi, When flying in tailwind you can maintain a way lower IAS compared to flying in headwind. Its like the FM is using groundspeed to calculate lift instead of IAS. This has been reported before, just wanted to check if any progress has been made.
Michael_Halldin Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 I confirm, strong headwind and wasn't able with max mil to keep it flying in ldg configuration. Sent from my LON-L29 using Tapatalk
addde Posted September 5, 2017 Author Posted September 5, 2017 Could we please have any developer comment on the matter?

amalahama Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 This is a serious issue. I hope it gets fixed soon. Regards!
Cobra847 Posted September 6, 2017 Posted September 6, 2017 We're investigating. This may be a regression as a similar issue has been fixed before. Nicholas Dackard Founder & Lead Artist Heatblur Simulations https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/
RagnarDa Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Argh! I've fixed this issue at least once every six months since start of Viggen development. No idea why it keeps cropping up. Can you tell me how your plane was oriented when you experienced the problem (north/east/south/west) and how you read the IAS (in cockpit or external view?) DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.
addde Posted September 7, 2017 Author Posted September 7, 2017 Argh! I've fixed this issue at least once every six months since start of Viggen development. No idea why it keeps cropping up. Can you tell me how your plane was oriented when you experienced the problem (north/east/south/west) and how you read the IAS (in cockpit or external view?) Did some testing just now. S wind = Wind from South (DIR: 0 ingame) N wind = Wind from North (DIR: 180 ingame) W wind = Wind from West (DIR: 090 ingame) E wind = Wind from East (DIR: 270 ingame) 500m altitude flown 20 kt wind Clean aircraft 30% fuel Alt hold engaged All speeds in KPH Speeds at 10 units AoA, indicated both by AoA meter in cockpit and F2 view: cockpit speed / F2 speed N wind flying N: 350 / 357 N wind flying S: 225 / 217 N wind flying W: 295 / 291 N wind flying E: 295 / 291 S wind flying N: 225 / 216 S wind flying S: 350 / 357 S wind flying W: 290 / 285 S wind flying E: 290 / 285 W wind flying N: 295 / 291 W wind flying S: 295 / 289 W wind flying W:350 / 357 W wind flying E: 225 / 220 E wind flying N: 296 / 293 E wind flying S: 290 / 287 E wind flying W: 227 / 220 E wind flying E: 352 / 357 Conclusion: Regardless of wind direction, a significantly higher IAS is required for the same AoA when flying in headwind compared to tailwind. More thrust is also required when flying in headwind compared to tailwind (because of the increased IAS i assume). I hope this helps :) 1
RagnarDa Posted September 8, 2017 Posted September 8, 2017 Wow! Excellent bug report! DCS AJS37 HACKERMAN There will always be bugs. If everything is a priority nothing is.
addde Posted September 8, 2017 Author Posted September 8, 2017 Wow! Excellent bug report! Thank you! I hope you get that sum beach bug squashed!
azm Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 (edited) Just crashed in front of the strip in strong sidewind mission. Any chance to get this fixed in next couple of patches? upd. Do you need any additional info (missions, tracks, etc)? Hope this issue is treated as quite priority one because it`s nearly nothing to do now with Viggen in windy missions.
