Amarok_73 Posted June 26, 2020 Posted June 26, 2020 (edited) Hello, Is it according to the real plane specificity, that in stable, horizontal flight, with vertical speed equal to 0, the flight path marker is located above horizon?

Falby Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 Yes that is the default setting ie +5 degrees, although it can be adjusted using the HUD trim button. Maybe someone who knows more than I do can explain why or if pilots ever changed it.
IronMike Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 This was intended for better visibility of the hud for the pilot. Here's a nice explanation why: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4392430&postcount=2 Heatblur Simulations Please feel free to contact me anytime, either via PM here, on the forums, or via email through the contact form on our homepage. http://www.heatblur.com/ https://www.facebook.com/heatblur/
mattag08 Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 The FPM shows true 1-to-1 velocity. The HUD is an abstracted representation of attitude like the VDI or BAI. Flying the DCS: F-14B from Heatblur Simulations with Carrier Strike Group 2 and the VF-154 Black Knights! I also own: Ka-50 2, A-10C, P-51D, UH-1H, Mi-8MTV2, FC3, F-86F, CA, Mig-15bis, Mig-21bis, F/A-18C, L-39, F-5E, AV-8B, AJS-37, F-16C, Mig-19P, JF-17, C-101, and CEII
RustBelt Posted June 27, 2020 Posted June 27, 2020 The Flight Path Marker is also pretty primitive in the F-14. Trust the Gauges not the HUD in the Tomcat. Consider the HUD supplementary information, not Primary Flight Instruments.
