Potholed Runways: Excessive bounce/vibration on takeoff/landing roll


Recommended Posts

Or nearly all the jets. It's not specific to any one module.

Compare real life video of an F-5 taking off or landing:

Where you see very minor vibration and wobblying of the wings. The suspension is extremely smooth.

Compared to DCS:

 

Where over 120kts or so the main suspension is pounding itself to death and the wings are rocking all over the place as if the runway is full of potholes.

Again, not specific to the F-5. I'm only using the F-5 as an example because it shows the effect a bit better via the wing flutter and its small size. The A-10 has the same issue, but no wing flutter and isn't quite as easy to see. 

It would be nice to have smoother suspension at high speeds on a smooth runway.

Just to help get some attention to this, thought I’d give you a +1. I completely agree.
