YSIAD_RIP Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 (edited) I was hoping to buy the YAK during the current sale - at only $20 I will not complain about the price. My granddaughter would enjoy the very forgiving and predictable flight characteristics - and so will I. LOL. I did not realize there was such a limited damage model. Nothing new here that has not already been reported 2 years ago in this forum. I would say damage model is 20% complete. The YAK just feels so unfinished - It makes me appreciate the beautiful I-16 even more now. The Yak is indeed very satisfying to fly. Visibility in cockpit is excellent and the cockpit textures very nice. There are also some nice skins available, including a new Canadian RCAF Chipmunk theme. I will take the next 2 weeks of Free 2 Fly and audition the YAK, do my forum and internet searches and see how it goes. Merry Christmas - and here is hoping that the Dec 23 scheduled open beta patch has a few extra Christmas goodies and surprises in it for all of us. Edited December 23, 2020 by YSIAD_RIP Minor edits. Still hopeful.

If you decide to wait in the future for feature complete aircraft I understand. All I can tell you is the team are planning to have the Yak-52 feature complete this year 2020, I am reluctant to give a guess at this stage. thank you 10 months radio silence again, I know we've all had a difficult year but surely it can't take this long for such a simple module.

1987kess Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 I recently asked ED on the steam forum to give some love to the Yak-52. @BIGNEWY answered that they will reallocate some people when other jobs were done, so I hope they will have some commitment to this module this year. I'm quite enjoying the module specially on Syria map, but it's needed to complete at least the basic features like navigation - we actually have similar system on the L-39C so I think it has to be an "easy" development... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gulredrel Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 Navigation is working since around middle of 2020. It's not working in all aspects but the major one do. It's missing the audio morse code, but needles move. There's a bug in the near/far toggle key bind, but individual near / far bindings work as intended and the needle switches position accordingly. First make sure that control in gained in the front cockpit about the adf system. There are some more threads about it. Regards Jens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yak's ADF audio was working last time I tested (there's a Compass/Morse toggle switch on the ADF panel that needs to be set to Morse to hear the ID code).

Jonne Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Just posting this as it seems to have never made it into the Yak-52 forum section. Might give you an idea about the priority of finishing this aircraft. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nessuno0505 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Yak-52 is the emblem of a very bad behavuour: they release an incomplete module and then look for people satisfaction: if the module has success they put time and resources on it, otherwise It Is abandoned / put at the end of the working list (that practically it's the same as abandoned). It's clear that yak-52 success has been small, and the few Who bought It after EA release are too few to invest time on them: f-18 and f-16 First, but also p-47, mi-24 and maybe the mosquito too. When and if a time cutout Is left, maybe they'll do something about the yak. I am lucky I did not buy It. Only released modules since then. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_Rex Posted March 9, 2021 Share Posted March 9, 2021 Perhaps it would be more honest on the part of the developers to provide the user who bought such a module (not modified and "forgotten") with the opportunity to return money within 3-5 days after the purchase, if its functionality or refinement causes complaints from the user. I can understand if it is reported in advance that the F-18 module will be in early access and will be refined for a long time - the functionality of this aircraft is huge and here the user deliberately invests money in what he will receive as a result. But the Yak-52 is not an aircraft that can be called complex, its main task is coop-piloting (training), nevertheless, the multi-crew is working disgustingly at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msalama Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 The Yak's project management - or, rather, the lack thereof - is nothing but ridiculous. Do ED not understand what this may do to their reputation in the long run? 1 The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

It would hurt their reputation if people thought about the Yak, but the majority of the customer base only cares about combat aircraft. There also isn't any competition either. The Yak's abandonment didn't hurt their reputation. The poor state of the Viper and the slow Hornet/Viper development didn't hurt their reputation. The slow state of SuperCarrier development didn't hurt their reputation. I expect the same to happen with the Hind and Apache. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I've noticed is that from the rear cockpit there's this smudge/reflection(?) in the canopy (in the section between the front and rear cockpits) that's makes looking outside a bit of a pain.

zaelu Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 As a owner of Yak-52 module I think it's time or ED to consider making this module free alongside TF-51 and Su25T. Maybe people that fly it for free will be incentivized to buy some more modules that would in turn fuel a bit better the development than waiting for some milestone in sales to continue it. 4 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] I5 4670k, 32GB, GTX 1070, Thrustmaster TFRP, G940 Throttle extremely modded with Bodnar 0836X and Bu0836A, Warthog Joystick with F-18 grip, Oculus Rift S - Almost all is made from gifts from friends, the most expensive parts at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamespejam Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Amazing module that lacks some love to be finished and fix the remaining issues (the prop still rotating in the wrong direction says a lot). It looks like the new prop effect was not included in this bird either. That, together with the NS430 not working in VR after such long time is a shame with no good excuses.. shame on you ED. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
