SAS control laws

[jcdata]

Given some of the information in the Natops . In DCS, what happens if you turn off all the sas?... Particularly in pitch

Too difficult to describe. You'll know in six days. Aircraft is still flyable- It is modeled beautifully.

Reading this from you makes me drool a little lol

Interestingly enough from the manual with regards to roll:

 

 

Sounds like there will be plenty of opportunity to need to test this ;-)

 

It doesn't mention pitch, unfortunately.

Since you roll with rudders at high AoA, the roll SAS would try to counter that which is not what you want, hence disabling it

What is a high aoa for the tomcat, past which we need to use rudders to roll? 15 units?

With those spoilerons, there shouldn't be much risk in using traditional roll controls at high AoA (with wings out), unless I'm misunderstanding something about the roll control in the aircraft.

Read "Maneuvering flight-" in there: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=232264 - this is first hand information on how the thing acts.

Interesting. I wonder if it's the elevon stalling then, as you'd expect the aileron to cause in most other generic aircraft in alpha-max flight.
