"Stands back in amazement"

[Loz]

Well I thought I'd either seen or read about all the detail this wonderful study sim has to offer but I've not seen this before.

 

I had just landed at Batumi and was just pulled off the runway in the turn around pans at the upwind end of the runway. Having a good look at my Helios pit when I noticed the AOA guage swinging from full scale one way to the other. Looking outside I was amazed to see that because I was tail into wind the AOA vane was being blown about in unison. When I taxied around it to wind it weather cocked back to it's normal position.

Now if that's not attention to detail then I don't know what is. :pilotfly:

the sim would be better if there was a pizza cooker somewhere in the pit though. LOL

 

Good find! it amazes me too... its really bizarre to think that this is nothing but the output of a computer.

Don't worry, that ships with the boxed copy.

[Scratchy]

I found something the other day, or at least I think I did:

 

I had set up a mission to over-fly the highest peaks on the map. I had also set the winds aloft to be a strong tail-wind as I wanted a large ground speed during my decent. Anyway, after passing the highest terrain and in the midst of a high-speed decent, I was suddenly being tossed around for a few seconds.

 

Could it be this simulation models the turbulence one would expect to find on the lee-side of a mountain range with high-speed winds aloft? No way! But there was something there...

 

ED, you rule.

 

Even if it wasn't really there (no, I wasn't drinking or otherwise impaired) the fidelity leaves you with a big grin on your melon. :D

Exactly, everytime I get in the pit. Just looking around makes me smile.:thumbup:

OT: There was an SH4 mod for an ice cream maker, but in that case there was actually room for one.;)

It usually makes me do this....:joystick:...:pilotfly:...:doh:....:book:

[bluepilot76]

I am sure down wind turbulence (rotor) is modelled, unless it was a coincidence, I hope so, thats a really nice feature to have.

Now if we can only get ATC up to snuff...as it stands ATC is something best ignored.

It's a large Elephant with ATC being the Hind-Quarter......There are more Juicy Bits to nibble on first.

 

**Not in my expert opinion, of course**

Not if you plan on sumulating CV ops down the road. :thumbup:

 

Or when you inegrate the next DCS hardcore jet with A10C.

 

I'd say a functional ATC is vital.

In the year 2073, Eagle Dynamics released DCS: Universe. You're "playing" it right now, you just don't realize it. ;)

Indeed. Hence the referral to the hind-quarter: You'd be amazed at what you get:

 

 

Steaks total divided amongst the Sirloin, Porterhouse, and T-Bone Steaks (or strips steaks and tenderloin)

 

Top Round that can be cut as Roasts, Steaks, and/or London Broil

 

Rolled Rump Roasts

 

Sirloin Tip Roasts

 

Cube Steaks

 

Shank Soup Bones

 

Stew Beef

 

Ground Beef.

I could have referred to the tail or even worse, the toes :cry:
