EvanWeeks Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Yes indeed. I haven't gotten home from work to get in and take her for a spin yet, but thank you ED for actually giving me an early Christmas present - a Viper in DCS. Evan "Preacher" Weeks - Dad. Programmer.

parxuk Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Yeah, the cockpit looks and feels great in VR, and much clearer and more readable than the hornet (which I still love). Well done ED!

Thats something i noticed too, visibility and readability of the HUD/MFD and Cockpit is really good on my Rift S. After the first takeoff/spin/landing at Batumi it's now back to work...setting up the HOTAS :book: Modules: KA-50, A-10C, FC3, UH-1H, MI-8MTV2, CA, MIG-21bis, FW-190D9, Bf-109K4, F-86F, MIG-15bis, M-2000C, SA342 Gazelle, AJS-37 Viggen, F/A-18C, F-14, C-101, FW-190A8, F-16C, F-5E, JF-17, SC, Mi-24P Hind, AH-64D Apache, Mirage F1, F-4E Phantom II System: Win 11 Pro 64bit, Ryzen 3800X, 32gb RAM DDR4-3200, PowerColor Radeon RX 6900XT Red Devil ,1 x Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 2TB NVMe, 2 x Samsung SSD 2TB + 1TB SATA, MFG Crosswind Rudder Pedals - VIRPIL T-50CM and VIRPIL MongoosT-50 Throttle - HP Reverg G2, using only the latest Open Beta, DCS settings
MurderOne Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 It's neat. It looks good in VR. Lots to learn. Sorry, no cool signature here.
Kim Jong-un Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Have been missing this module since a quit playing falcon. Supreme leader
A2597 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Yes, thank you ED! This is literally my dream aircraft since I was a kid (now mid 30s...). Flying this in DCS in VR is a dream come true!
falcon_120 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Its strange, Im having a hard time reading the MFDs in my Rift S.
Zeagle Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 First flight was amazing. I felt right at home in that cockpit. I really love the way she flies. Well done ED ! Thank you for an amazing bird.
Hoffster Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 So far only tried the startup tutorial and loving the look of the pit. Just had to change my pants though when the radio went full blast on engine start drowning out poor Wags. Have to remember to turn down the knobs before atempting that on the second try ;)
mazex Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Its strange, Im having a hard time reading the MFDs in my Rift S. Agreed. With my Index the F18 displays are very readable but not so in the F16... Gotta see if something has changed. But other than that the F16 is super awesome. Have been doing some MK82 CCIP bombing runs and it's almost too easy to hit the targets!

EvanWeeks Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Thanks for keeping the positivity up in this thread, guys. Keep it coming. A lot of debbie downers out there only playing up the stuff that doesn't work. Evan "Preacher" Weeks - Dad. Programmer. Virtual Fighter Pilot. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

exile2256 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Took my first blast around nevada, so fast and smooth, pulling 9g turns with ease. Now to settle in for EA, at the end (including the hornet) We’ll have something very special. Thank you ED team.
exile2256 Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 I don't seem to have access to it, nothing n my modules? It’s only on open beta branch. If your on open beta and it won’t update, either wait, or download skatezillas dcs updater utility, you can force an update from there. The other method is via a command line on windows.
flavnet Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Great!! I'm glad the Viper is finally back!! Now I have a feast of flights and I discover again this wonderful machine that I had forgotten since the days of Falcon 4.0! Thanks again to the team of developers and to all those who will make this simulation perfect (including all of us who are testing it).

mazex Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Ohh - I have pushed it more, and I REALLY LOVE the flight model. In the F18 you can do those silly standing almost still in the air at 70 degrees alpha chucking around like a model aircraft. In the F16 it behaves much more credibly in low speed / high alpha. Sure - the F18 is supposed to have better nose authority in low speed, but you can do things today that not even the Finnish F18 demo pilots would dream of ;) Not that I have flown any fly by wire fighters IRL - closest is a Swedish SK-60 :) Ryzen 9800X3D | RTX 5080 GPU | Gigabyte X670 Aorus Elite AX MB | 64GB 6000Mhz DDR5 | Windows 11 Pro x64 | Virpil T-50 Throttle | T50 CM2 Grip + WarBRD | VKB T-rudder MK IV | Asus PG279Q 1440p | Pimax Crystal Light VR | Samsung 980 Pro as system disk and DCS on separate Samsung 990 Pro NVME SSD

I turned down the intercom but then the warnings were muted during the tests. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
