howie87 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Wow... Ok, I'm convinced this may have potential now ;)
eagle13 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Hi Beaupower32 the team would love any help you can give, and I hope to have you on the OPEVAL team. But I would never ever want to put you in a position which might in any way compromise your position as a crew chief. Eagle 1
beaupower32 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 I would be more than happy to help with anything you need. I would also enjoy being on the OPEVAL. Let me know! "There is always a small microcosm of people who need to explain away their suckage" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Sarge55 Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Looking at the cockpit it appears like I'm going to need a touch screen for my 2nd monitor.

GeorgeLKMT Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 It looks like the same model that Dino Cattaneo used for his F-35A. ■ L-39C/ZA Czech cockpit mod ■ My DCS skins ■
schkorpio Posted June 25, 2013 Posted June 25, 2013 Looking at the cockpit it appears like I'm going to need a touch screen for my 2nd monitor. Just when I thought I was set up. :) Go with a touch screen overlay :) its cheaper and you can you use whatever monitor you want :D http://www.aliexpress.com/item/23-6Inch-Dual-touch-IR-Touch-Overlay-Frame-Panel-Supply-multi-touch-software-together-with-it/763193605.html I'm using one cause I couldn't find a touchscreen monitor that was capable of 120hz. It works great for A-10C because the 6DoF cockpit lets you lean right up to the small buttons :) So I suspect I'll be using it a lot for the F-35 Sponsored by: http://www.ozpc.com.au

Jamal http://www.flickr.com/photos/27277424@N04/sets/72157634318581967/ She looks very good so far...know she's a WIP but she appears to be missing a few "bumps" near the vertical stabs. (sorry don't technically know what they are since I don't work the old girl). @beaupower32, can you shed any light on what they are for?

beaupower32 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Paul, they are there so the aircraft shows up on RADAR. They are easy to remove, and if you want to go full stealth you just take them off. Don't know if I can post the name of them, but that is what they basically do... "There is always a small microcosm of people who need to explain away their suckage" [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
GGTharos Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Luneburg lenses. Aka 'nutsacks' on the F-22. They're not a secret, Luneburg lenses work on the same principle as stealth, they just do the opposite thing. Paul, they are there so the aircraft shows up on RADAR. They are easy to remove, and if you want to go full stealth you just take them off. Don't know if I can post the name of them, but that is what they basically do...

ENO Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Paul, they are there so the aircraft shows up on RADAR. They are easy to remove, and if you want to go full stealth you just take them off. Don't know if I can post the name of them, but that is what they basically do... They had similar fixtures mounted on the sides of the F-117 as well... funny that that's all you need to help make a stealthy aircraft visible. As for my questions about the stabilizers- thanks to all who responded and yes I can definitely see why a wider (likely heavier) surface wasn't favoured and that at lower speed (sub-supercruise for example) that it wasn't necessary.

howie87 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 (edited) Just out of interest, anyone know if the F-35A's electronic/hydraulic/fuel systems are declassified? Also, any plans to include EOTS? Edited June 26, 2013 by howie87
Eight Ball Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 Wow, KI might actually make me like the F-35 :p Can't wait to see more, good luck ! Find The Links To All My Mods And Liveries Here (in the gallery)
opps Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 How many times do you want to fuss about same matter DCS:F-35 haters? Just get out of here and enjoy your play without F-35 or other new generetion airclfts.
howie87 Posted June 26, 2013 Posted June 26, 2013 I wasn't a fan at first but then I realised it's just a tool that opens up more possibilities for mission designers. I'd hate to fly against one but it would be great to fly a deep strike 4 ship. The point is, it's happening now so embrace it. Try to gather as much information as you can and help to make it as realistic as possible. There are avionics demo's and lots of first hand accounts of how it flies and many other variables can be closely calculated from the information we have available, such as weight, thrust, internal fuel load, Max G load, wing area etc. It won't be DCS A-10C realistic, but neither are FC3 aircraft. Just accept it for what it is. 1
