Izgud Posted May 10, 2018 Posted May 10, 2018 Hi, Sorry if this is a bit much, but I'm interested in helping us all get the best Hornet we can! Is it just me, or is the HUD a little slow? It's my impression that the refresh rate for most of the basic flight data (airspeed, altitude, vertical velocity, alpha, Mach, G) should be at 5 Hz as shown in all of the videos linked below, while it currently seems to be at about 4 Hz in DCS. Regards

lucky-hendrix Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 How can you see the difference between 4hz and 5hz by naked eye?? Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk
Weta43 Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 Given that the original poster thought the RL video of 4Hz was 5Hz, apparently you can't Cheers.
TonyG Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 If the HUD refresh rate between 4 and 5 Hz is the biggest issue we have with this module upon release, let’s take them to task on it. Otherwise, let’s get serious here..... 9800X3D, MSI 5080 , G.SKILL 64GB DDR5-6000, Win 11, MSI X870, 2/4TB nVME, Quest 3, OpenHornet Pit
Izgud Posted May 11, 2018 Author Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) Hi,From the books While interesting, there is quite a difference between 4 Hz and 4 MHz. It sounds to me as though this excerpt is referring to something akin to a clock. How can you see the difference between 4hz and 5hz by naked eye?? Sent from my VTR-L09 using Tapatalk I thought it looked a little slow, so I measured it. One relatively easy way is to use a tempo tool like the one offered here. Simply tap a key for each change in HUD data - altitude during a rapid climb/descent, for instance. Using this method, and with the videos set to 0.25 speed, I am consistently getting 75 BPM (5 updates per real second) on the RL videos, and ~60 BPM (~4 updates per real second) on the DCS videos. Of course, video editing software can also be used. Please note that certain HUD elements such as the pitch ladder and velocity vector are updated more frequently and aren't part of my concern. I would be interested to hear if anyone else can confirm or refute these measurements. Given that the original poster thought the RL video of 4Hz was 5Hz, apparently you can'tDo you think I am mistaken? Could you please explain why you think so? Thanks! Edited May 11, 2018 by Izgud
pete_auau Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 cant see any difference from the naked eye so suppose there not much difference

Mule Posted May 12, 2018 Posted May 12, 2018 I should really just read the whole thread first. I spent ages watching those videos trying to figure out you can tell the difference between 4 hz and 5 hz. You owe me half an hour buddy! Fighter Pilot Podcast.

Mule Posted May 13, 2018 Posted May 13, 2018 lol you can but you need a app to see the difference I think I will give it a miss this time :thumbup: Fighter Pilot Podcast.
