Leviathan667 Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 (edited) EDIT: HB, please do not consider this post a bug report. It seems this happened because I broke the gyros after a 10G turn. Not sure if it is a bug or something that can be fixed while in the plane but after a prolonged dogfighting session, the lines on the HUD and VDI stopped being parallel to the plane's flying plane.

MurderOne Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 How many times did you hit 10G before this occurred? Sorry, no cool signature here.
Sandman1330 Posted April 28, 2019 Posted April 28, 2019 How many times did you hit 10G before this occurred? This. Look at your G meter in the photo: your max G is pegged at 10, which is as high as the gauge goes so potentially even higher. The Tomcat is older tech, so aside from not having FBW to ensure you remain within the aircraft’s 7.5G safe limit (6.5 in peacetime), it also has mechanical spinning gyros rather than newer solid state sensors that provide the attitude data. At high G, these spinning gyros get damaged and provide incorrect attitude information. This is what you are seeing. The next step if you pull a bit more G is you lose your wings. I know, I’ve been there :) Ryzen 7 5800X3D / Asus Crosshair VI Hero X370 / Corsair H110i / Sapphire Nitro+ 6800XT / 32Gb G.Skill TridentZ 3200 / Samsung 980 Pro M.2 / Virpil Warbrd base + VFX and TM grips / Virpil CM3 Throttle / Saitek Pro Combat pedals / Reverb G2
