Adder_667th Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 Noticed this in FC V1.1, think its a bug. Not sure if this one has been posted so i'll mention it anyway. Aircraft: SU-25T Upon landing I deployed the drag chute (p), the chute deploys but wont release at all (i think it should detach automatically at 50-60kph), even when the plane is completley stopped the chute is flapping around like there was a 150kt wind in it. Also during a colision on runway that almost destroyed the aircraft, the drag chutes were still in remarkable condition & flapping around like they had helium in them :) Otherwise the sim rocks!!

kam Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 You can press P again to release the chute if i remember correctly.

ED Team Laivynas Posted July 19, 2005 ED Team Posted July 19, 2005 You can press P again to release the chute if i remember correctly. Correct! :) Or You can increase engine RPM. ;) (Hold wheel brakes) Best Regards, Dmitry. "Чтобы дойти до цели, надо прежде всего идти." © О. Бальзак

It flaps after full stop due to egines thrust. Just try to add thrust and you will see "something". ;) On Su-25T you must to press "P" key again to release shute (or add thrust - it will be "released" ;) ).

ED Team Laivynas Posted July 19, 2005 ED Team Posted July 19, 2005 ... even when the plane is completley stopped the chute is flapping around like there was a 150kt wind in it. It's engines' thrust. ;) Best Regards, Dmitry. "Чтобы дойти до цели, надо прежде всего идти." © О. Бальзак
Adder_667th Posted July 19, 2005 Author Posted July 19, 2005 OK cool, so now I know how to release it cheers for that...but do you think it should still remain fully inflated when the plane is stopped? surley is a bug? in real life it would drop to the ground no?

Dmut Posted July 19, 2005 Posted July 19, 2005 Adder_667th, as two members already explained, chute is not going to flat even if your plane stopped, simply because idle engines makes a lot of "wind" to make sure chute will stay up :) if you switch your engines off - then you'll see chute getting flat on the ground.
