No, Full Fidelity F-5E and F-5E FC are different.

Full Fidelity F-5E is a fully clickable module, whereas F-5E FC is a simplified cockpit module from new Flaming Cliffs 2024.

Same thing goes for MiG-15 FC and F-86E FC.

To sum it up, FC24 planes are simplified non clickable versions of already existing Full Fidelity modules.

Great F-5E is one of my favorite modules. Thats where I practice my daylight stick and rudder skills as old school O.G. manual depression sight bombing/AG work. Like IRL USAF pilots keep their flight hour requirements in T-38 rather in more mentally exausting combat platforms.

Can anyone confirm if the FM and capabilities are basically the same?

My question is also if the F-5E FC functions are the same as in the full fidelity model?
Its not clickable ok but can i assign all/same functions to my hardware like in the full fidelity?
Sorry for the questions but i am little confused.
We have now the FC24 version (which ive tried), then there  is the 15$ (F-5E Flaming Cliffs) and the full fidelity model from Belsimtek (30$).
Would be great if someone can explain the differences

Can you crack the wings off in the FC Tiger as easily as the FF?

Only reason to buy it is if the wings stay attached.

The Flight Models are the same, however, some of the advanced systems are not available on the FCS Version.
FCS: F-5E-3_FC is equivalent to DCS: F-5E w/ some of the Stability Channels turned off performance wise.

Don't exceed 6.5G sustained. Its an eatly 1960's aluminum job.

Which means it was seriously over built and still flying 6 decades later without ever having lost a wing.

The wings staying on and driving the plane into an unrecoverable spin is what causes most of the non-combat  kills in this bird and its T-38 sister.

I dare to say this is the most thorough explanation there is
