RAZBAM simulations developing for DCS

I think it's time for Third Party Projects --> RAZBAM simulations forum's section. ;)

Amen to that.

Ah, so it is public, good :)

 

Once we have a proof of concept up and running in DCS, RAZBAM will have their own set of forums.

:hehe:

Great work

WOW!

Very nice looking pit there guys.

Mapping to HOTAS for the nozzles via the Incr/Decr slider, it was made for it.

I can't wait for VTOL takeoff's in this.

In the final version this AV8B can take off and landing vertically?

(using Google translator)

A Harrier just isn't a Harrier if it can't ;)

Although you only really do it for sir shows or training.

Doesn't make it less awesome :D

Or on a ship? Or if it's a really short airstrip and you're landing.

EDIT If you mean takeoff that's a fair point..

I've read somewhere that the Harrier could only hover for 60 sec. Is that correct?

Oh, and it was because some water cooling reservoir limitations. Please advice. :)

Incorrect :)

Does not need water to cool the engine. Does however require coolant and having regard to the amount of engine coolant available, can probably hover between 5-10 minutes.

Great Work man!!!

And what might this coolant be? :D

It doesn't need "coolant", the air itself is what cools a jet via the heat exchangers and pure air flow over the aircraft. There is a limit to hover imposed by heat build up in the engine and exhaust nozzles etc, 5 mins is not inaccurate.

The demin water is not there to cool the engine, as is the common myth, but rather to provide additional thrust. Depending on a/c weight and pressure altitude the amount of demin water available can indeed become the primary limiting factor in hover duration.

I've always wondered about that, thanks Eddie.

At the engine´s life expense..

The water tank has 500pnds capacity or 90 secs of steady use.

the water injection system enables rpm to be increased for a given turbine entry temperature to sustain short lift wet and normal lift wet ratings at temperatures above 15ºC indicated.

It´s not a "Turbo" like many believe, it helps the engine when reaching high temperatures to keep operating.

When water is introduced in the engine, in fact, it runs less efficiently, so DCES (digitally controled engine system) automatically increases fuel flow in order to compensate, for the power loss and to increase the rpm.

When in MFS (Manual Fuel System) fuel flow is defined by the throttle position.If the throttle is steady(full power for example) then thrust will be reduced when water flows compared to the expected dry value.The thrust reduction may be up to 1000lbs.Therefore, if you´re operating in MFS, the use of water is not advisable when more thrust is required.

My understanding is that this is 90sec at maximum rate, and whether you hit max rate or not really depends on conditions.

Not until we get it into DCS..

Ok we'll patiently check out this thread until that day arrives nice work Prowler111.

:shocking: :eek: :puke: :evil:

 

I suspected as much! When I read these posts backwards it has beezlebub writ large!

I'll bet if you have a look at RAZBAM in the mirror, it'll show MABZAR ... and thats proof enough in my books.

MABZAR .. PROWLER .. DEMIN WATER! Stay back I say ... in the name of the Holey Moley, I invoke the celestial beings of light to protect me ...

Bang ... he's dead. Mercy killing. Move along now please >:[

Not sure about that (the patience bit). Could you hurry with the Harrier please? Not sure how long my faculties will stay intact to be able to fly it! :pilotfly:

Last one is FSX

Best regards

Prowler

I like the plane, now stick it in DCS :)
