VIKBELL Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 This problems been the in both stable and open beta at least 3 patches worthy.. 2 There are 2 categories of fighter pilots: those who have performed, and those who someday will perform, a magnificent defensive break turn toward a bug on the canopy.

peachmonkey Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 someone on this forum found a 'work around', such as 1) use the ground crew to drain all fuel to 0%, and remove all ordinance (guns 0%) 2) request repair. Supposedly the bent gear doesn't happen with the reduced weight repair. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool-Hand Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Seems like the times I've done that, at least on the Normandy 2 map, it takes your water for WEP away and doesn't refill the tank. Just an FYI if you are gonna need a little extra power. 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippa Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 This is still happening. I didn’t realise it had busted one of the legs earlier. Went through all the cold start and warming, taxied out and lined up wondering why it was a bit wonky. Had to abort take-off and dump it. I thought it was so long ago it might’ve been sorted by now. Another one for the long to do list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eraseri Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I can confirm I experience the same problem. First the aircraft is lifted for repair. After the repair the aircraft is dropped down from air and that's when the landing gear breakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAGARA MOHAWK Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Does the ED TEAM even know this problem exists ? Odd that there has been NO agnolagment or reply from them on this issue , as only members replied ... I have started a new thread about this , hopefully we can get a reply from them ?? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIAGARA MOHAWK Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Maybe this will help ED for a fix ?? Right gear will break on landing on hard surface runways . even with good landings . will = NOT= break on grass or dirt runways , ( unless of course you slam it ) = but all airfields - request repair = will not properly fix landin gear ... request reply from ED , just so we now we are nor being Ignored .... and you are aware of the problem with P=47 landing gear ...

Slippa Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I think there are about three threads about this. One’s marked as reported (months ago). May as well merge them, or delete them? I’ve been flying in N2 a fair bit where it happens all the time. I don’t think it’s the map but the module. This isn’t getting fixed any time soon. I’ve yet to see anyone from ED acknowledge it’s even happening let alone being looked at. Flappies bump of the thread was three months ago now. Maybe we’ll get a fix soon and then a release of a razorback to make up for it? And maybe we won’t. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUNEofORM Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 If you want to fix it and not mind braking IC. Go into your install folder and find mods/aircraft/P-47D/FM. In that folder you will see FMOptions.lua Change the mainGearSpringForceFactorRate = 7 to a 5. Your gear will now flex some but not so much that it shoves its way all up into the wing. Lands lovey now. With just a little spring on touchdown. No Idea why ED just cant make that change. The mustangs is set to 3 and its way do hard. It would likely be better at a 4 or 5 but have not tested that yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cool-Hand Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 Thanks for the tip and fix, now ED just needs to make it official! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ED Team NineLine Posted March 25 ED Team Share Posted March 25 New landing gear system is currently being added to the P-47, it should be addressed then. Thanks. 18 hours ago, RUNEofORM said: No Idea why ED just cant make that change. The mustangs is set to 3 and its way do hard. It would likely be better at a 4 or 5 but have not tested that yet. This would be adjusted based on real-world information, not what works better but rather what is more realistic.
