thrustvector Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 don't really fly the flaming cliffs stuff, but fancy a go on the mig, do I use the tutorials for radar/missiles from the su? I guess they are the same?
Rudel_chw Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 don't really fly the flaming cliffs stuff, but fancy a go on the mig, do I use the tutorials for radar/missiles from the su? I guess they are the same? They are very similar at least on the flight, rwr and radar tutorials ... however, the MiG doesnt have a MFCD to show the navigation route, so the navigation is different tough the concepts are the same. Also the armament is different, since the Mig has two less stations, doesnt have the weapon panel of the Su-27 and also has somewhat different weapons; so the armament tutorials are not really compatible with the MiG .. I'm trying to edit them, but its difficult if one wants to keep the instructor's voice overs :( For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
thrustvector Posted October 13, 2018 Author Posted October 13, 2018 cheers Rudel for the reply, so I could prob get the basics and play by ear the rest, I suppose ED is going to add tuts later on then
Top Jockey Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 If we are talking about the MiG-29A, I believe it can carry 6 Air to Air missiles. As the Su-27 can carry 10 of those... Other than that, I think the MiG-29S can carry the R-77 missile, and the Su-27 can not. Still, Radar and EOS operation is very similar.

Aluminum Donkey Posted October 13, 2018 Posted October 13, 2018 don't really fly the flaming cliffs stuff, but fancy a go on the mig, do I use the tutorials for radar/missiles from the su? I guess they are the same? Yup, the Su-27 and MiG-29 radars (and EOS as well) are very similar, at least in the sim. The MiG doesn't have the really nice top-down view on the secondary display like the Su-27, which is a bit of a pain in the arse, but other than that, the two share pretty much all the same radar and EOS functions. The exception is the MiG-29S with R-77 missiles, which has a TWS2 mode for engaging two targets simultaneously. The Russian Flanker can't carry the R-77, only the Chinese version (J-11). Once you've gotten a hang of the Flanker, the MiG-29 radar will come to you naturally. Oh yeah, one more thing--if you haven't flown the FC3 aircraft a lot, you're in for a treat flight-wise, because the F-15C, Su-27, and now the MiG-29 all have awesome flight models! If you've stuck to the numerous other modules all this time, you've missed out on some of the most convincing (and entertaining) flight models in the sim! :) Peace and happy warfare AD Kit: B550 Aorus Elite AX V2, Ryzen 7 5800X w/ Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE, 2 x 16GB Kingston Fury DDR4 @3600MHz C16, Asus ROG Strix RTX 4070 Ti Super 16GB, EVGA SuperNova 750 G2 PSU, HP Omen 32" 2560x1440, Thrustmaster Cougar HOTAS fitted with Leo Bodnar's BU0836A controller. --Aviation is the art of throwing yourself at the ground, and having all the rules and regulations get in the way!

The MiG-29 was what took me to buy LOMAC many (15 ?) years ago, essentially because its Helmet Mounted Sight feature and famous flight characteristics. However at that time, its flight model fell short on expectations.
