carss Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I was flying the BFM campaign I flew with TACTS pods on both my wings just for the heck of it on the familiarization flight. Noticed that the wings don't flex or wobble with those on, even when airborne the wingtips are pointed downward as if the plane were parked on the ground and no air flow was going through the wings [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry:
Sydy Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 The pods are too light to make wingtips wooble. Even airflow will not create forces big enough to make it wooble. Try with Aim-9s.
carss Posted March 12, 2018 Author Posted March 12, 2018 The pods are too light to make wingtips wooble. Even airflow will not create forces big enough to make it wooble. Try with Aim-9s. That's not the only point. Even an empty wingtip would jiggle at least a bit. And while flying, the airflow should be enough to make the wingtips point straight and not droop down as if they're static [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Planes: FC3, P-51, F-86, F-5E, Mirage 2000, F/A-18, F-14, F-16, Mig-19P :joystick: ED pls gib A-4 and F-4 :cry:

ED Team cofcorpse Posted March 15, 2018 ED Team Posted March 15, 2018 I just tried to takeoff and fly with one AIM-9 and TACTS pod, and I see wing flex and wingtips wobble on both wings. Though, the wing with TACTS bends and wobbles less than other, what is quite reasonable due to lower mass and area of TACTS pod. I'll look at your track when it will be available.
