THEDUDE111 Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Hello All, I am having an issue after take off in the F18. When performing an assault takeoff (ie Fly down the runway around 50ft agl and then pitch up to 50 degrees at threshold around 300-330 knots like the blue angels solo does) the aircraft loses altitude suddenly and almost certainly makes contact with the ground. Can someone explain whats going on, set up is as it would be in the real one. Is it the physics of the aircraft data in DCS? Or am I missing something.
Swift. Posted September 15, 2020 Posted September 15, 2020 Sounds like the reverse ground effect bug. Its known 476th Discord | 476th Website | Swift Youtube Ryzen 5800x, RTX 4070ti, 64GB, Quest 2
WOPR Posted September 17, 2020 Posted September 17, 2020 How fast are you pitching up? The Blue Angles have a 40lb pull spring attached to their stick.
BuzzU Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 The Blue Angels use a clean plane. Are you doing the same thing? Buzz

My apologies in advance for being pedantic but I believe what you are describing is called a low transition takeoff. The term "assault takeoff" usually applies to cargo aircraft such as the C-130.
