The pitch response is too fast. No matter how much I adjust the curves and dead zones, pitch is very rapidly. Airframe breaks at high speed

Only problem the F-14A

How do I reduce the pitch response?

 

Or is it reality?

No curves, only a deadzone in my case because my Logitech G940 is too mushy in the center (and throttle too spikey, but that's a different story; makes AAR a real "joy"). Anyway, the best setting for the Tomcat is actually no curves at all, but a lot of stick discipline, especially when you "transition" from a FBW aircraft like the Hornet or the Viper. When I first started out in the Tomcat, I actually set -10 (negative) curves until I got the hang of it, then went to 0 curves.

 

The F-14 module requires a considerable amount of training. Hence why I have neglected the Hornet module so much, because I actually dread having to "relearn" the Tomcat if I play around with FBW modules too much.

 

The Tomcat handles more like a very overpowered warbird or F-86 than modern FBW "plastic jet". 😉

Like our colleague above mentioned, no curves at all! It's the only way to go. And don't yank the stick without a good cause.....

The pitch-response is only "fast" with the wings forward. The more they sweep aft, the more stable in pitch the airplane becomes.

 

Are you sure this isn't a trim-issue? You might find yourself trimmed nose-up at high sweep-angle and then forget to re-trim nose-down with the wings coming forward, while slowing down...

Regardless of speed and wing angle, there is a problem. All dcs plane is normal only f-14a has problem

 

My joystick is a VKB NXT PRO

Not a problem for me. Once you got used to it, it's a no-brainer.

Even with my cheap stick - no curves and it feels best of all modules I own or tried. Actually I feel them all well beside the 29 🙂
