Viper academic videos

thanks for that @mvsgas.

 

Now all we need is the aircraft and we're good to go. :)

Interesting video but I really wonder how flight control movement is supposed to remove bubbles from the hydraulics. They should just circle through the system.

Doubt its bubbles. It simply warms up the fluid and cycles it.

Not sure if that what it does literally, but its what we call it. Also the hydraulic reservoirs is used to separate the air out of the fluid. By moving the surfaces you allow the fluid to cycle through the Integrated Servo Actuator (ISA) removing any air that might have been collected there when the aircraft was shut off.

Not sure how it is on the block 50 (I’m sure it’s probably the same) but if there’s air in the system, ground crew purges it out while the jet is running or does it with the hydraulic mule when the jet is off. Cycling the controls during startup just warms the fluid and gets it circulating to ensure proper operation.

As fluid settles, air often goes to the highest points in the system. In the -15 world, it’s common for it to go the SB actuator and EGSSV/Emer gen because it’s the highest point in the system. Same as purging with a mule in open loop, you have to work the air away from the actuators, etc. it is doing more than just warming fluid. It’s just one of those things, you’ll never get it all out, and if you do, something else will just push it back in.

For me that's Thursday for the E-Shop.

 

Does that mean that those that have already paid for the pre-order and awaiting the release will get auto download notice on the same day Thursday?

It was only a video but the clarity of cockpit text compared to what i`m used to worries me for VR

Hope its my imagination.

[JamesRothwell]

Excited for Thursday. I can't wait to make my "IT'S 00:01 IN NEW ZEALAND WHERES MAH VIPER" post.

Matt, that gear video, pure beauty :pilotfly:

[Eaglewings]

Yeah, landing animation looks fantastic.

Literally waiting to get in that cockpit in vr tomorrow.

Literally waiting to get in that cockpit in vr tomorrow.

 

Same here; cannot wait!

[HereThen]

We have to ask our wingman to lower the gear once every flight so you could enjoy this!

Where's the radar and A2A weapons video?
