Weird aerodynamic "rubber banding" behaviour


Recommended Posts

Posted

Has anyone else noticed this strange behavior with the F15e (as far as I recall, I have only seen with the F1 Mirage).

I only ever saw this on the F1 mirage until now.  The behavior is very similar with & without the CAS switches.  Also the F2 view doesn't show the flight controls doing anything that reflects what the aircraft pitch and moment is doing.

Pulling any sort of move that requires more than about 50-60% stick movement, the aircraft (at various speeds) will suddenly begin pitching up and gain quite a moment in the process, but in a second (or less) with zero adjustment to control inputs, this moment will almost completely undo itself, in some cases, it will ever begin "rubber banding" back towards the way it came.

It actually ruins a lot of the immersion and fun in flying the aircraft for me, and I was hoping this is something that's recognised and being worked on, especially as no other module in DCS suffers from this weird behaviour (aside from the old mirage - which has thankfully improved since release).

 

. . . . . . .

Every module/ map except the dual winged joke.

Would bet you are likely stalling the wings, which has less to do with any sort of ‘issue’ and more to do with flying technique.

Most aircraft without Fly-by-wire will do this when you add an extreme pitch or yaw input. Can you elaborate on if this occurs in two axes or all three? Can you also describe how quickly you are moving the stick when this happens?

So you don't even know if it's real behavior but its simulation already ruins the immersion for you?

I find it a bit hard to understand what you're saying but it sounds like stalling. Maybe you think stalling is based on speed (it isn't) or think any modelled aircraft will somehow prevent stalling for you automatically (they won't)? 

If you aren't stalling then I think people need to see a video that includes your control inputs.
