VNAO T-45 Goshawk

[Quetzalkoatl]

Hey, generally I have to say that this is one of the best top quality mods ever made for DCS.

I absolutely love how it looks, and how it files... oh well - I actually found something that seems to be an issue:

 

It looks like engine performance related to altitude isn't modelled correctly and it does not lose thrust while gaining altitude.

Which results it going extremely fast. If not hypoxia then I guess it could reach even Mach 3.

 

Here is another image - dive after passing out from hypoxia:

 

Hope you'll find a solution for this... and again thank you VNAO team for this piece of art!

In the Documents folder.

It's easy though.

Batteries (1 and 2) to on, reset generator.

Antiskid on

Press and hols GAS button

Then press and hold engine start

That's it for the top of my head.

 

One needs to configure a most of buttons etc. But that's not a lot anyway,

 

CONGRATS to the team for finally having a module that don't need the brakes to be inverted!!!!

Yes docs mod folder

Thanks, MadMaxter.

I checked but I somehow always seem to be locked out from the cockpit. I only get an external view and an AI pilot takes full control. I cannot get in either front or back seat at all but seem to be an outside spectator of the flight.

 

This is in the quick start mission as well as in a mission I create by myself (screenshots attached from ME).

 

Appreciate any hints in the right direction! 

 

 

 

@MadMaxter:

PROBLEM SOLVED: 

 

Norton AntiVirus defined the VNAOT45FM.dll as malware and constantly quarantined it. I set this file as an exception and now I can enter the cockpit without any issues!

Looking so much forward to testing the bird later!   

 

 

Cheers!

Thanks, downloaded 3 times....

 

Well stop!

 

 

Just kidding. I'm sure it'll become available for the rest of us soon.

Thanks for that input. We are working on the flight model as it will be one of the most challenging aspects of this project as you can tell. Which brings me to my next point. We have real world 45 pilots helping develop the fm and will be leaning heavily on them in the coming weeks as we do a deep dive into that aspect. But do not let that discourage you from giving us any valuable input that you discover. It can only benefit the project in the long run.

Some comms features are not working yet. SRS is working but in game comms may not be possible. We’re looking very closely at it.

ok, shame as i could give a computer grade, thanks for the reply. My first lap round the boat in VR I prefered the handling to the Hornet. It absolutely feels right and passes basic layman realism, so imo nailed it.
Really good feeling of pitch with power, good speed and drag feeling, doesnt stop fast, feels a tad quick, rolls beievably, feels like a real plane, most people would be fooled.

Im gonna see if I can spin it now...

[Flipper]

First cold start and first pattern around the field works really well!

So: awesome work!

 

One question:

It is possible to add the content of the two DDIs on two small screens?

Like in this thread:

My first trials seem not to work - I take this .lua:

 

_  = function(p) return p; end;
name = _('FlipperT45L-RDDI');
Description = 'Left MFCD on the left monitor,Right MFCD on the right and camera on the center'
Viewports =
{
     Center =
     {
          x = 0;
          y = 0;
          width = 1920;
          height = 1080;
          viewDx = 0;
          viewDy = 0;
          aspect = 1920/1080;
     }
}

LEFT_MFCD =
{
     x = 1920;
     y = 0;
     width = 550;
     height = 600;
     aspect = 800/600;
}

RIGHT_MFCD =
{
     x = 2720;
     y = 0;
     width = 550;
     height = 600;
     aspect = 800/600;
}

UIMainView = Viewports.Center

I had a similar problem with the M2000C once. Reason was, my antivirus quarantined one the M2000C files.

Yeah, this is a cracking free addon, might need to sort out some curves on my VKB NXT Pro, but she's a beauty.

Took off from the Carrier, did my circuits, and managed to trap a 3 wire first time.. but the lack of Carrier comms is hard to get the coaching from LSO, and Grades too..

It's a beautiful addon guys well done !
