[Eight Ball]

Oh boy...creating a whole new thread just to post my vids...what a lack of humility :D

 

This my latest :

 

it's supposed to be some kind of intro for an upcoming vid

which is going to be a remake of this vid I made last year :

 

 

Oh and well, since I've created a whole thread for my vids I'll post all of them :

 

My very first one

Not bad for a first try...

 

2nd

Clearly sucks

 

3rd

Not better than the 2nd...my humor sucks too

 

One of my first take off with the pony

A naturally gifted pilot...

 

And a music vid with the pony

youporny

[Eight Ball]

A new video ! Woohooo !

[elchacal]

Great vids! :thumbup:

[411kaplan]

nice...

[jj_pt]

Subscribing to your channel. :director:

[Eight Ball]

Thanks a lot guys :)

[slamraamproductions]

Nice videos and I really like that bluish color effect on the Eagle.

[Eight Ball]

Thanks again :)

 

What did you use to get the color hue like that on that last video?

Couldn't answer you exactly but I've mainly been playing with contrast, saturation and lighting curves

[Eight Ball]

A new video ! Isn't it wonderful ?!

Lol, that's some strong landing gear! Love the sounds also.

guess this is a hind flyable mod? do I need to have BS2 module activated to fly the Hind?

[Eight Ball]

Thanks guys :)

Nope.

For one I have nothing to do with this, it's the AI

 

I was flying the hog and wanted to turn this hind into a piece of emmental. We were facing each other, both firing at each other, we collided, he lost his wing and I died.

Then he got shot, one of his engine died and he kinda crash landed at high speed.

But he didn't stop. He went like this for 5 good minutes, bouncing and bouncing some more, driving through trees, rivers and buildings.

He finally did that last jump, glided for a few second, landed and finally turned off his remaining engine.

 

:D

haha yeah! BTW...do u guys see and realize how much better the hinds FM is than the landing model in FC3 for flyables? :p

 

Man! I hope this is what the new landing and ground handling dynamics that should be extended to the flyable aircraft of FC3. I hope its in the final release.

No more selfmade sound effect this time.

[Reaper26]

No more selfmade sound effect this time.

 

FYI - F-15C/D's carry AIM-9's on the outboard pylons, and AIM-120's on the inboard pylons.

 

Also, the fade ins from blur were too long, as well as the text fade ins.

Well, I tought it looked good but I must admit you are probably right

This is by far the worst thumbs up/down ratio of all my vids so I clearly did something wrong !

I appreciate you took the time to tell me your opinion, really :)

 

BTW, do you know why AIM-9's are only carried on the outboard pylons ?

Something to do with the seeker head ?

Ya know, I've asked a few F-15 pilots and they haven't been able to give me a good answer.

 

I am assuming it's due to the F-15E's CFT's.

 

I've seen F-15C's with AMRAAM's both outboard (outboard when only carrying one AMRAAM and one Sidewinder...one on either side) and inboard, but never an F-15E with inboard AMRAAMS.

 

Who knows, I could be wrong, but it's just an observation I've made through the years.

[HungaroJET]

FYI - F-15C/D's carry AIM-9's on the outboard pylons, and AIM-120's on the inboard pylons.

This is false ^

F-15s able to carry 2 Sidewinders or 2 AMRAAMs (or mixed) on each wing pylons.

We are talking about mixed configuration now:

I think usually ground crew put on the heavier/larger missile onto outboard pilons (if inner used too) coz it is easier to access/approach the pilon by hands or by lifters (especially if EFT is already on/hung)

I think pilots also prefer this "larger & heavier @ ouboards" because with the first missile launch (probably a BVR launch) the roll inertia decreases in a bigger measure than a shoot from an inboard pylon...what is more significant if AIM-120 carried on wingtips of F-16

If the first firing (wtih higher chance) will be a sidewinder launch (visual target ID) then i think heavier/larger missile will be carried on the inboard pylons.

If only 1 missile carried per wing, 99% that both ground crew and pilot choose ouboard pylon for AIM-9 and for AIM-120 also.

...but if you need a more precise answer then you should ask Pilotasso or Cali i guess.

Thanks for the info HungaroJET,

 

I based my loadout on the recent pics/vids I've seen of F-16s who were carrying AIM-120s on wingtip and AIM-9s under wing.

 

I remember when I was young it used to be the opposite (from the pics I saw back then), sidewinders were always on wingtip and AIM-120 under wing.

 

EDIT : hum, not sure I really understood what you meant cause you're posting pictures showing the opposite of what you just said :P

 

Ahah, my vid might sucks but there's at least one F-15C who flown with an identical payload :)

 

And another one

 

But the thing I don't understand is the AIM-120 is suppose to fall before igniting, right ? How does he do that with a fuel tank in the way ?

 

And while I was looking for those pics I also found this one

Looks like a single seat F-15E, wikipedia says F-15C :huh:

Reaper26 wrote he has never seen an F-15E with inboard AMRAAMs.

That's why i posted two images.

 

What i wrote larger missile on outboard pylons are more common than opposite, however (there are exceptions ^) all four wing (side) pylons able to carry AIM-9s and 120s.

These (side) pylons are rails, so the missile leaves this rail horizontally when ignited - sliding/accelerating forward on the rail, so wont hit EFTs or bombs when launched.

Under-fuselage missile pylons (4, 5 & 7, 8 ) are ejectors: before ignition ejector arms (actually these are a forward piston with half-ring and an aft ejector piston - for each missile) push/shove outwardly and downwardly the missile (not only let fall/unleash)
