Hornet stick feeling in the aircraft...

Merry Christmas all!

 

Just threw a quick graph together based on the Evaluation data - I'm assuming it's a straight addition onto the breakout force.

This also changes depending on the flap setting. 2.5 inches forward and 3.5 aft in half and full.

 

What's your source for this? I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else including NATOPS.

That a publicly available doc that a non-American is allowed to read? 😇

Found this elsewhere on the DCS forum (quite by chance!)

 

"71. Not Auto Flaps Up Operation.

 

Pitch stick command and pitch trim bias are the pitch

command inputs used during control augmentation

system (CAS) operation. WITH

ROLL-PITCH-YAW COMPUTER

CONFIG/IDENT 99 AND UP

(A1-F18AC-SCM-000), pitch stick command is

limited to 2.5 inches forward and 3.55 inches aft. A

trim up or trim down command causes the pitch

trim bias to be supplied to the pitch trim integrator.

The pitch trim integrator sums the pitch trim bias

with the integrator’s previous output to produce the

pitch trim integrator signal. Pitch trim integrator

signal is limited to 0° trailing edge down and 12°

trailing edge up. Pitch outer loop command (if

required, refer to WP029 01) and pitch stick

command during automatic carrier landing (ACL)

operation (if required, refer to WP029 01), are the

pitch command inputs during autopilot operation.

 

I'm presuming that's a hardware rather than a software-induced limit?
