OverStratos Posted May 16, 2019 Share Posted May 16, 2019 I have made a bug report about that excessive glide ratio, since there was no response at all from the devs in here. What is the purpose of having a great single unified FM thread, if there is no purposeful communication with the customers? Sorry for the late reply HWasp, All the minor issues that still remain in the FM like the ITR/STR and lift-to-drag ratio are in the process of being fixed. Your feedback on the glide ratio was very useful, thanks. Currently the aircraft is also becoming supersonic in MIL power at most heights by 2-3kph and this is also in our coder FM work list. To all those that fear that the FM is wrong or in a bad state, please check for the FM comparisons between the simulated aircraft and the real one in threads in this very sub-forum and in our Discord channel. We have presented a lot of data to allow for the correct assessment of the MiG-19P FM status and updates have been released on a timely schedule. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpenwolf Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 I know developers hate this question, and I understand that, but please understand my concern with FM, so here is the question: Any idea how long it might take until it's finalised and ready?

Don't hate me now :smilewink: :D don´t worry, everyone can have doubts. Let´s see, the FM is currently quite accurate in most parameters with only a few aspects that need to be corrected. The time to finish these depends on our FM coder(Cpt. Smiley) which has been really busy these days. I´m all the time working with him to correct the issues and he has an quite detailed list of all remaining items, so it shouldn't´t be too long. Regarding the concerns you have in relation to the FM, please feel free to express them here or in our Discord and we can talk about them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hummingbird Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Good to see you are here listening to the feedback and talking back OverStratos.

TLTeo Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 So what is the FM like now? Can the jet still supercruise? Has the drag/aoa issue that caused the insane sustained turn rate been fixed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harlikwin Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 So what is the FM like now? Can the jet still supercruise? Has the drag/aoa issue that caused the insane sustained turn rate been fixed? I just got it and it doesn't seem to do that in my very limited flying of it. If anything it seems slow to me and slow to rebuild speed, though I'm not sure if I'm actually using the Afterburners (no visual AB effect). Probably a "me" problem or is there some special "mig-ism" that I'm missing there? One thing that did impress me so far is that I somehow inadvertently managed to enter a flat spin during a dogfight that I couldn't get out of. The reason it impressed me, is that a) I've seldom entered spins in DCS that weren't hard to get into and absurdly easy to recover, and b) in general its hard to get planes to spin in DCS IMO (F14 being a notable exception). Glad to hear that its still being worked on though. New hotness: I7 9700k 4.8ghz, 32gb ddr4, 2080ti, :joystick: TM Warthog.

OverStratos Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 The sustained turn rate should be better now than at release, but this is an area that needs some work yet. So far it´s a little difficult to tune this without messing other flight parameters, so our FM coder is slowly but steadily improving turn performance.

There are some green lights in the lower right of the front panel that indicate on/off. The flat spin from low speed stall is a killer. She has a nasty low speed high AOA turning stall also.

myHelljumper Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 (edited) Hello guys, I'm necro-ing this topic to bring you guys some news on the FM work that is ongoing on the Mig-19. Major corrections were done to the lift coefficient discontinuity in AoA, that was causing annoying pitch control behavior. Along with that change, the overall lift coefficient was tuned to match the data we have which brought the turn performance stuff in line better. The other smaller change was the correction of the CG so that the static margin matches the data we have (which gives more accurate pitch moment feel for the aircraft). CL before the adjustments CL after the adjustments Edited May 5, 2021 by myHelljumper Replaced the second graph with a more accurate one. 8 Helljumper - M2000C Guru Helljumper's Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK3rTjezLUxPbWHvJJ3W2fA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLTeo Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 @myHelljumper Guess I'll repost from the Status thread: if I understand those plots correctly - the dashed blue and continuous blue lines are both the coefficient of lift at sea level, while the green/violet/red are for increasing altitude? Shouldn't the two blue lines match then, implying that with these adjustments the coefficient of lift is going to be a bit too high (granted, only ~10%, so it's within DCS-ism limits)? Also, how come it is completely unchanged above 5000m? Am I missing something obvious? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myHelljumper Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 I just asked the dev and he said that the tool used to make this graph only did the tests a 0m and 5000m so only these lines are valid. The 10000m and 15000m are to be ignored here. This is still work in progress and we already have a closer line right now. We will see if we can get a complete graph sometime in the future. I replaced the graph you were talking about with the new, closer one. 1 1 Helljumper - M2000C Guru Helljumper's Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCK3rTjezLUxPbWHvJJ3W2fA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danzig Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Can someone give a short summary of what the fm feels like now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossmum Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) Like a fighter It feels like it doesn't quite have the nose authority of the 21 or F-5, but it can pull its nose and while it still beasts both of those in sustained turn rate, it's easier to stay within the right speed band now. You don't immediately lose all your speed and fall out of the sky like you used to, it'll still punish bad flying but is much more forgiving than it was before. You don't have to dread split-S manoeuvres anymore as (like the 21) it needs surprisingly little room to make them. All in all it's a huge improvement, it feels absolutely wonderful to fly and complements the 21 quite nicely when they're on the same team.

Hummingbird Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 One thing I find a bit strange about the FM since both before & after the latest updaes, is the odd snappiness in pitch & yaw, it feels like there's a lack of inertia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
