schimmel Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 I searched both forums, looked into the manual but couldn't get any information. I only get a 90° turn by using the cobra move, but f.ex. I don't get a 180° nor a tail slide followed by a back flip. What I'm looking for is some "manual" on Pougachev's Cobra. What is the optimal speed? How do I handle the aircraft? What are the physics? What actually happens by pressing 'K'? Thank you for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plug pray Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Speed ~ 380, just press k, pull up and enjoy. Better if u hold an altitude of more than 500m :) Yeah, and just before pulling up(after pressing k), engage the afterburner... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is the point you dont handle teh aircraft after pressing K the movement is complete scripted...

schimmel Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 Re: Pougachev's Cobra :(... any change in 1.1? In some videos like f.ex. Maximum G, I saw those 180° missile shots (180° backwards, shoot and turn back). Any detail on how these work? At medium speed around 500-600 kph I get a 180° by pressing "K" whereas at low speed it just flips to 90° and back. So the tail slide actually only works in between those two.

olaleier Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 In videos like Maximum G, the plane didn't do a 180 deg angle of attack. From a nose up attitude (30 degs or more), it did a 100 degree Cobra and an off-boresight shot. Add all these angles together, and it's close to 180. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GGTharos Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 Yep... there's no '180' ... not in this version of the flanker anyway - what you're seeing at higher speeds is your nose pulling up normally, then once you slow down the Cobra script kicks in and your plane does a 100 deg cobra. Don't miss ... you won't like how things look if you do.
