neoshi Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 OK I hate to be the debbie downer of the group, but having played DCS/ED sims since LOMAC 1.0, if I buy stang now... are we potentially going to see a stang 2 for another $9.99-19.99? :joystick: Wrestling with their sales model, as I always think they're going to one better my recent purchase with another paid upgrade.

doebro2010 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 well I bought it a few weeks ago for 40 dollar so i dont like this type of sales I step out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KLR Rico Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 At that price, I hope everyone who has even a tiny bit of interest in the stang buys it, you can't afford to *not* try it. It's a pilot's plane, it'll show you real quick how bad you suck at flying. :D i5-4670K@4.5GHz / 16 GB RAM / SSD / GTX1080 Rift CV1 / G-seat / modded FFB HOTAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVZ Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 @159th_Viper - I accidentally did that, then remembered from the tutorials that I shouldn't... I was zoomed into my panel with TrackIR at the time... so while I eased off the throttle and zoomed back out... I realised that I was a second too late :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racketyjack Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Was flabbergasted when I saw the price drop. So, red lights and sirens on!

OK, Debbs... I don't think we'll get another Mustang (if you mean like BS1.0 and BS2.0, then I don't think so, it was a move to port BS into world with better shadows and other beauties for the shark notwithstanding in BS1.0). AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower. Open triangle is AWACS, closed triangle is your own sensors.

aceviper Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 After 20 minutes of trying to tame the stang...spinning on the runway....screaming wtf is going on?...I went off for some Bf3 metro....not a good first impression.

159th_Viper Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 (edited) After 20 minutes of trying to tame the stang...spinning on the runway..... Is your tailwheel locked? When starting out, NEVER exceed 42 inHg on the Manifold Pressure gauge. If you are having problems just shout - I'll post a track for you to have a look at and confirm that there's no Bogeyman riding along in your cockpit :D Edited March 22, 2013 by 159th_Viper Novice or Veteran looking for an alternative MP career?

Foul Ole Ron Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 As Viper mentioned above make sure you keep the stick either neutral or pulled back a bit to keep the tail wheel locked when taxiing to the runway and during the initial run once you've applied some power or you can end up in those twirls. You can hit CTRL+Enter to get a little diagram in the bottom left of your screen of where your stick, rudder and brake inputs are. Remember to apply 5 degrees of right rudder before starting to take off. Keep the revs at full and manifold pressure at around 40 during the whole take-off run - on these long modern runways that's ample power to get you off the ground. Once you've picked up a bit of speed the rudders will become operational. You'll probably need to make some quick adjustments with the rudders before you transition into the air - keep them nice and light though or make some adjustments to your rudder curve to make it easier. You don't want to be jerking too hard left and right at that speed and with all that torque going on as you'll skid out of control pretty quickly. You have to be quick with the adjustments too - don't wait until you're quite noticibly veering off to one side as when you try to pull it back the other way you'll skid out of control. Once in the air you'll find it's a breeze to fly around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin-27 Posted March 22, 2013 Share Posted March 22, 2013 After 20 minutes of trying to tame the stang...spinning on the runway....screaming wtf is going on?...I went off for some Bf3 metro....not a good first impression. Patience is a virtue. Like most valued things in life, it's worth putting considerable effort into despite initial frustrations. We've ALL been thrown off the Stang at times. Get back on and don't be afraid to give her the spurs (Make sure you have a good grip first) It's 100% active piloting. And yea, watch out when you unlock the tailwheel... can be a biatch. No real need to push the stick forward of center before you are well on your way down the runway.

Patience is a virtue. She's a beast, once you stop fighting her she will respond, slow and steady with movements, you have lots of runway...don't be afraid to take things slow ;).

The thing is I tried to buy it 6 weeks ago but something happened in the sale and I ended up with a FC3 key and not P51. It took 6 weeks to get my money back so that I could turn around and buy what I originally wanted (p51). Now I'm like DAMN IT why couldn't they have taken 8 weeks to respond?!
