DCS News Update

[Viper79]

Si molto corposa, ma non vedo la patch per il Mirage 2000C

[Conroy]

Di solito la RAZBAM non posta gli update. Controlla se il cockpit è arrotondato.

[Viper79]

Mi sembra di sì, nn vedo più le curve spigolose, ma sinceramente non le notavo nemmeno prima quindi...

Solo quello hanno aggiornato.

Pre-purchase Su-33 for DCS World

 

 

 

 

Owners of DCS: Flaming Cliffs 3 will receive the Su-33 for FREE! Upon Early Access release of the Su-33 for DCS World, DCS: Flaming Cliffs 3 will be priced at $44.99 USD.

 

Features of this upcoming Su-33 update include:

• Professional Flight Model (PFM)
  
• More detailed and accurate simulation of the wing control surfaces that include the leading and trailing edge flaps and the differential ailerons. In addition to the conventional differential stabilizers, canard behavior has also been improved for more realistic behavior. The Flight Control System (FCS) will automatically reconfigure itself depending on the flight mode.
  
• The adaptations that make the Su-33 aircraft carrier-capable have been updated and improved to include the wing-fold mechanism, reinforced landing gear struts, and the inclusion of high-gain nose wheel steering for use on crowded carrier decks.
  
• The physical mechanisms by which the arrestor hook engages the aircraft carrier arrestor wire has been greatly improved. Correct physics have been applied to the arrestor wire and its’ interaction with the aircraft.
  
• The engines now have a "special mode" that adds up to 12,800 kg of thrust (instead of the normal 12,500 kg of thrust). This mode also includes realistic operating time restrictions.
  
• A new FCS mode used when aerial refueling has also been implemented. When in this mode and the control stick is released, the aircraft will automatically maintain level flight. This FCS mode allows fine-control and thus making it easier to make contact with the tanker within a pitch range of plus or minus 5 degrees and of a roll angle of plus or minus 10 degrees.
  
• The Auto-Thrust Control (ATC) is used for automatic speed holding and can be fine-tuned with a set speed switch. This can be useful with landing on the carrier.
  
• The automatic collision avoidance system ("Uvod" mode) is now included and allows safe nap-of-the-earth flying.
  

 

 

Announcing the P-51D: Charnwood Campaign

 

Created by the same team behind the Spitfire: Epsom Campaign, work is moving rapidly on this historically-based campaign for the P-51D over Normandy in July 1944. The Charnwood campaign reproduces missions P-51D missions flown in support of the allied breakout of Normandy. Given the Mustang’s combination of air-to-air and air-to-ground capabilities (bombs and rockets), this campaign will offer a wealth of mission types and challenges. Each mission is based on a real mission, down to weather, times, squadrons, mission tasks, and allied and axis unit placement.

 

Coming Autumn 2017.

Interessante sono tentato dal Su-33 però volevo prendere FC3, anche se ho F-15 e Su-27... Alla fine in FC3 che rimane solo il MiG29S (senza calcolare a-10a e Su25) giusto?

[Mig Fulcrum]

Anche il Mig-29A e il Mig-29G

 

Edit: Anche se non ho capito che cosa abbia il G di differente.

HOT: Question...I notice that both the DCS EShop and Steam Store show no reference to the Mig-29G that I received with Flaming Cliffs 3. It also mentions on Steam that the Mig-29 is coming out soon with PFM as is the SU-33. Is the MIG-29G still going to be part of FC3 and is it going to be PFM upgraded as well?

Cosa sarebbe il modulo NS430? Sembra che abbiano sistemato un pò il Gazelle finalmente

 

Mi rispondo da solo, dovrebbe essere il Garmin GNS430

 

Edited September 6, 2017 by Viper79

[Aviators]

wuao! ci avviciniamo a FSX/P3D/Xplane :D bello sto Garmin

...Sembra che abbiano sistemato un pò il Gazelle finalmente...

 

Non si sono sprecati ma almeno è un' inizio dopo mesi di silenzio, vedremo cosa faranno con l' FM visto che questo è l' aspetto più importante...

qulcuno riassume brevemente le rogne dell'FM su gazelle? non ho voglia di ravanare per 2 giorni nei forum... :cry:

 

Il primo problema è la risposta del collettivo, guarda il video e nota la reazione dell' elicottero in relazione alla variazione del primo:

 

 

Il secondo problema riguarda la stabilità in rapporto agli spostamenti del ciclico , non è possibile che al minimo spostamento di quest' ultimo l' elicottero reagisca con una manovra amplificata e anomala che, nel tentativo di contrastare , porta praticamente sempre a entrare in un inviluppo di volo caratterizzato dal "pendolo", cioè il velivolo inizia a andare da destra a sinistra e viceversa amplificando man mano l' escursione del pendolo fino ad arrivare a essere incontrollabile con successivo schianto a terra.

 

Il Gazelle non vola affatto così , del resto ne erano già al corrente anche loro e ci stavano lavorando sopra, poi è successo quello che è successo e tutto è andato in cavalleria come si suol dire , pare però che abbiano ripreso il discorso ma non si sa se ,e quando, uscirà un nuovo FM più rapportato alla macchina.

 

:thumbup:

[Snap]

Confermo quanto espresso da Falcoblu. In effetti il ragazzo è eccessivamente nervosetto, e l'effetto pendolo è decisamente assurdo, anche se capisco che è un elicottero agile.;)

The NS 430 was introduced in 1997 and quickly became aviation's most popular GPS. Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) capability was added in 2006. The sharp, clear display and intuitive button layout of the NS 430 made it the standard for general aviation around the world.

 

The DCS NS 430 includes:

• Dozens of user interface screens
  
• Chapter and Page layout functionality
  
• Moving map capability
  
• Serves as both a communications radio, navigation radio, and GPS receiver
