Hey,

 

Ive noticed that the Mirage has a strong tendency to go to blackout too abrupt. You still have vision, trying to find the sweetspot and bam blackout.

 

Everytime, only on the F1. 

 

Note that I am even releasing pressure before the Blackout happens....shouldnt be like this.

At what G is this occurring to you  ?

Ive had it happen as low as 4G, usually when its the first time I pull G in a flight, afterwards I can go up to the normal G amounts without blacking out. on a few occasions the blackout has been permanent eve when flying at 1-2G the pilot wont wake back up. 
Its hard to get a track for because its inconsistent and I cant quite figure out whats happening. once you trigger the bug you're pretty much guaranteed to G lock from my experience, even if you release pressure from the stick.

Happened to my friend today. He was around 300ish knots mild right hand climb, rolled out and started to do a negative dive to descend by 10-15deg and instantly blacked out. He showed me the clip afterwards and there was zero warning. It wasn't the smoothest negative G but it certainly wasn't harsh enough for instant blackout without warning. He never came back and crashed into the ground 7000ft below.
