My first flight

[galagamo]

Using FC2.0:smilewink: After I had all of my settings the way I like, I noticed the bird strikes slider, so I set it to what I thought was a moderate 250.

This is my very first flight in 2.0, SU-25T Ramp start and NAV mission, I saved the trk.

I thought for sure, I would be a flaming heap at the end of the runway:huh:

BTW, the nose wheel turns when the rudder is trimmed, I guess that's how it is IRL as well, can anyone confirm?

Nice Vid, Could you actually see the bird coming at you from inside the pit? I did not notice..

 

To my knowledge, Brakes and rudder are seperate controls on an aircraft IRL. Press the tops of the rudder pedals for wheel brakes

Thanks, and no, there are no birds, just catastrophic engine failure to simulate a bird strike.

I believe the rudder, and nose wheel, are supposed to be independent of each other, correct? However when you trim the rudder the nose wheel will follow suit, and that's not good, unless it's accurate. I'm for 100% accuracy even if it's bad engineering.

I donno if its real but its part of the game. Rudder is how you turn on the taxiway so it makes sense that a little trim will have the same impact on the wheel.

 

Still wish their was a "Birds! Birds! Birds!" audio cue to let you know it was a birdstrike that crippled your engines.

Good idea.

Salute:v::beer: The sound quality was just too good to mutilate with an audio swap.

What does "HTFU" stand for?

Mutilate - much better word than cripple. I'll remember that :)

 

As for HTFU :music_whistling:

 

HTFU :D
