wavn Posted November 23, 2017 Posted November 23, 2017 Yeah, I could easily include that with the training missions. Both the AI one and the scripted one with voice actors (which I plan to use in the campaign) Nice!! I know: by reading the books, you get all information but in practice, when I did not fly an aircraft for some time, the first thing I do when I retry that aircraft is not re-reading the books but do some exercises in interactive tutorials :) Best regards, Willem
Angel101 Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 Self lasing is not enabled yet. I hope to have it working by next Friday along with other TPOD features. Is there any indication of where is the TGP pointing relative to the plane? Like the Situational awareness cue and the north arrow on the TGP.
DAZnBLAST Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 Bit confused about the drop in pairs info? The GBU is a precision weapon, so why drop in pairs? Does the weight difference affect the AV8 FM that much IRL? If not, will it be corrected? If so, does this mean the simulated A10 FM is incorrect?

Ramsay Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) Bit confused about the drop in pairs info? The GBU is a precision weapon, so why drop in pairs? He says in the video that "dropping in singles is totally doable", just that it requires trimming out and the AV-8B has problems when pulling high G. Does the weight difference affect the AV8 FM that much IRL? A1-AV8BB--NFM--000, 11.4.5.4.4 "Maneuvering with Asymmetric Stores" describes the effects of asymmetric loadouts. Of special note is :- 11.4.5.4.5 Dive Recovery with Asymmetric External Loads The intent here is to draw attention to the adverse effects on aircraft handling of large weight asymmetries and high IMN. ... with asymmetry approaching or exceeding 100,000 inch--pounds, care should be taken not to exceed 0.88 IMN or 520 KCAS. If an uncommanded roll is experienced, the recovery technique is to slow the aircraft below 0.85 IMN, which will provide for increased lateral control authority. So it seems the RAZBAM AV-8B models IRL behaviour, to a greater or lesser extent, no doubt the WIP (as seen) and Early Access (to be released) flight model will continue to receive improvements in all areas. If so, does this mean the simulated A10 FM is incorrect? I don't see why it would, different aircraft, different handling, different limitations. You,d need to check the IRL A-10 manuals to see if DCS's asymmetric FM is realistic. Note: Carrying GBU-12 on the external stations (1 and 7) doesn't look to be an authorised loadout, which may explain Jabber's issue with his asymmetric loadout. Edited November 26, 2017 by Ramsay GBU-12's on stations 1 and 7 don't look to be an approved loadout. i9 9900K @4.8GHz, 64GB DDR4, RTX4070 12GB, 1+2TB NVMe, 6+4TB HD, 4+1TB SSD, Winwing Orion 2 F-15EX Throttle + F-16EX Stick, TPR Pedals, TIR5, Win 11 Pro x64, Odyssey G93SC 5120X1440

I don't see why it would, different aircraft, different handling, different limitations. You,d need to check the IRL A-10 manuals to see if DCS's asymmetric FM is realistic. That is why the Pocket Guide has the limitations chapter and it has several graphics. Study them because all those limitations have been modeled and if you try to fly outside the parameters the aircraft will drop without warning. Been there, done that and made a lot of holes in the ground. Got a nasty surprise when using the Sidearm and a Maverick (I was carrying two sidearms and four mavericks), they left the same wing. Suddenly the aircraft was "heavy" on the other wing. I tried to make a turn to the heavy wing side and the wing dropped, the aircraft went into an unrecoverable spin and I hit the floor. The postmortem showed that the asymmetric load was 90,000 pounds-inch, or very close to the limit. When I turned into the heavy wing, the aircraft entered into a stall and fell. If I had maneuvered against the heavy wing, the aircraft would have responded without problems. And that is why I included the limitations chapter in the pocked guide.

DAZnBLAST Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the response guys, wow! Guess we have to be switched on to which weapons we release in order to stop one wing being exhausted and the other full then. Can say I've never worried or had any negative experiences in the A10 with stores remaining on one wing, certainly no spins. PS I know the harrier isn't the A10 :D Cheers D Edited November 26, 2017 by DAZnBLAST My Hangar: F16C | FA18C | AH64D | F14A/B | M2000C | AV8B | A10C/ii | KA50/iii | Chinook | UH1H | OH58 | Gazelle | FC3 | CA | Supercarrier My Spec: Obsidian750D Airflow | Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K | 128GB DDR4 Vengeance @3600 | RTX3080 12GB OC | ZXR PCIe | WD Black 2TB SSD | Log X56 | Log G502 | TrackIR | 1 badass mutha

My mistake was not to take into account that there was an empty rail on my left wing when the maveric was selected.

Esac_mirmidon Posted November 26, 2017 Posted November 26, 2017 I know but the Harrier has some very "special", making it very interesting but demanding and at some degree, unforgiving. One very interesting is not more than continuous 360° roll for example. " You must think in russian.."
