Repth Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 Yes, she really rolls that fast. Up to 720 degrees per second. The real pilots had artificial restrictions placed to prevent exactly what you experienced along with preventing damage to the airframe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the real A-4E empty with guns only and 50 % fuel, rolls so fast? Thats insane. Its the only type in DCS that gives GLOC during roll. Not barrel roll. Just straight aileron roll. Real A-4E is a max 7G airframe , correct? I worked on these. Had a pilot tell me that they were limited to 2 revolutions in aleron roll or they would not be able to recover from it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vettefan Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) Great mod! - just downloaded it and really start to enjoy it. But I seem not to be able to tune into the carrier frequency and e.g. call "inbound": The menu-items remain greyed out (via the comms.-menu: "\" // "#" I am using a German keyboard layout, so "#" it is for me). When starting the same flight in my Tomcat or Hornet, all works well. Is this functionality not yet implemented or am I doing something wrong? Many thanks in advance!

Checked that also later in the Mission Editor as a pre-set frequency for the A-4 and it returned an "invalid frequency" error (but only for the A-4E! - my Tomcat and Hornet still allow for 127,500...). When I now set my carrier frequency to e.g. 300,000 and do the same as a pre-set frequency in the plane, it works all fine and I can communicate with the carrier!

Yea that's because the Hornet has a V/UHF radio. The A-4 does not have a VHF radio only a UHF radio. 2 Community A-4E-C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 (edited) Some early thoughts (2.0 Beta-2), not a pilot so cannot comment of the EFM: It is a fun plane to fly, and yes, I can get myself into a spin! Yay! Light, responsive but surprising weapon capacity. Not as easy to learn than then MB-339 but not too hard, but yet to get into NAV and radar. The engine response is slightly better than F/A-18C, no as powerful though. Great low-level handling, but feeling "fast enough". Crazy roll rate, fun to fly around and in dogfight, but a pain to line-up for ground attack runs. A few issues here and there -- like the radar altimeter knob is very hard to turn counterclockwise. Surprisingly easy to land on a runway, than F/A-18C i.e. Edited March 18, 2021 by VRPiPJP VR Flight Guy in PJ Pants -- this is how I fly.

The nosewheel steering switch is also not working. You have to open the canopy before asking to disconnect ground power. For NWS, you need to keep whatever button you mapped pressed while doing turns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
