C-101 AVIOJET

SYSTEMS SIMULATION OVERVIEW

 

Hi everyone!

 

We are very excited to make this announcement regarding the C-101! The following is an overview of the systems modelling.

 

LIST LAST UPDATED: August 2nd @ 0045z.

 

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

* All relays, switches and breakers modelled

* All busses modelled with complete switching logic

* Battery drains under load without generator or external power connected (WIP)

* Accurate electrical loads by electrical consumers (the more you try and run on the battery, the quicker it fails) (WIP)

* Systems highly granular, with sub-systems tied to their respective bus and associated circuit breaker

 

AIR DATA COMPUTER

* Highly accurate air data simulation

* ASI simulates effects of compressibility and effects due to angle of attack

* VSI has lagged response

* Mach meter

* Organic simulation of blocked pitot and static systems - results in accurate "down stream" behavior of altimeter, VSI and ASI without special programming

 

HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

* All flight controls dependent upon availability of hydraulic pressure (current SFM limitation means that aileron, elevator, and rudder operate regardless of configuration)

* Hydraulic system manual reversion accurately simulated

* Flight controls accurately drain system pressure

 

PRESSURIZATION/AIR CONDITIONING

* Pressurization schedule accurately modelled

* Pressurization affects oxygen usage

* Incorrect configuration leads to pilot blackout (WIP)

* Canopy fogging reacts to ambient conditions/"cold soak" (WIP)

 

OXYGEN SYSTEM

* Affected by cockpit pressurization

* Accurate usage based upon conditions

* Normal and high flow modelled

* Oxygen affected by crew member count

 

NAVIGATION SYSTEM

* VOR, ILS and TACAN accurately modelled

* "Cone of silence", and range vs. altitude determine reception area

* Each beacon characteristics accurate to their type

* TACAN test mode fully modelled, including failure states

* Terrain masking (WIP)

 

TARSYN SYSTEM

* Highly accurate start-up/shutdown

* Effects of maneuvering/acceleration introduce errors

* Highly accurate self-erect function with inhibit modes implemented

* Independent vertical and horizontal gyros

* Manual modes fully implemented

 

ALTIMETER

* Effect of blocked static port

* Vibrator modelled with ability to tap glass

* Needle will stick if vibrator failed/no power

 

BACKUP INSTRUMENTS

* Turn coordinator and slip ball will react correctly on the ground

* Turn coordinator will topple if start-up time not observed

* Attitude indicator errors implemented

 

FUEL SYSTEM

* Fuel system fully modelled

* Inverted fuel tank simulated and reacts to g and NOT aircraft attitude

* All fuel tanks correct modelled with complete fuel transfer system and auto logic, as well as manual modes

* Mis-configuration of fuel system can lead to fuel starvation and engine flame-out

* Fuel quantity indicator system fully modelled

* All functions tied to their respective busses and circuit breakers

 

ENGINE SYSTEM

* Engine start/stop logic fully implemented

* Engine ignition system auto/continuous mode fully modelled

* Engine flame outs under certain conditions modelled

* Engine failure if abused/limits exceeded

 

FLIGHT DIRECTOR SYSTEM

* HDG mode

* VOR/LOC mode

* GO AROUND mode

* REV mode

* APP ARM

* GS mode

* GS EXT mode

* ALT mode

* PAT mode

 

NAVIGATION RADIO HEAD

* VOR test mode implemented

* Display test mode

* Display dimmer/OFF implemented

* Independent of nav radio - can fail independently

 

VHF RADIO HEAD

* Display test mode

* Display dimmer/OFF implemented

* Blinks on invalid frequency selection

* Independent of comm radio - can fail independently

 

UHF RADIO HEAD

* Digital display fully implemented (bright/dim and TEST mode)

* Frequency or channel select option

* Channels stored for later use (user-editable)

* Independent of comm radio - can fail independently

 

TACAN RADIO HEAD

* Test mode implemented

* TACAN X band implemented

* TACAN able to tune any valid DME source from VOR/ILS/DME in addition to TACAN/DME

* Independent of TACAN radio - can fail independently

 

DME RECEIVER

* Independent DME receiver can fail independently

 

MORSE CODE IDENTS

* All beacon types include correct frequency of tone, keying rate, repeat rate, and interleave

* Audio panel

 

COCKPIT LIGHTING

* Cockpit lighting integrated into model

* Accurate area illumination (within limits of renderer)

* All lights independently modelled (single lights can burn out/fail)

* All lights tied to correct dimmers/switches

 

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

* All external lighting independently modelled (except formation lights)

* Individual lights can fail (except formation lights)

* All lights tied to correct switches

* Multi-stage lighting

 

ADDITIONAL EXTERNAL ANIMATIONS

* Boarding ladders

* Wheel chock

* Pilots helmet(s)

* GPU (when requested)

 

ADDITIONAL INTERNAL ANIMATIONS

* Boarding ladders

* Helmet

* GPU

 

All electrical systems are tied to their respective busses, and circuit breaker(s) where installed. Systems are highly granular, so sub-systems can be failed separately with accurate response.

 

Flight Director system will be fully operational. FD computer is fully implemented, and work is progressing very nicely on the controller logic. Upgrades to the TARSYN simulation will follow due to internal fault monitoring logic being implemented as part of the FD system. ;)

 

Items marked as (WIP) may be experimental, missing, broken, or may not make it into the final product.

 

THIS LIST IS NOT EXHAUSTIVE, AND EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

 

We hope you enjoyed reading some of the key features of the C-101 systems and depth of modelling. We aim to bring you the highest fidelity systems simulation possible, thanks to advice and feedback from our real-world pilots and maintenance technicians. We are extremely grateful for their help.

 

Best regards,

Tango.

release it!!! NOUWW!!!

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. Double dash is friendly, Single dash is enemy. Circle is friendly. Strobe is jammer. Strobe to dash is under 35 km. HDD is 7 times range key. Radar to 160 km, IRST to 10 km. Stay low, but never slow.

This looks to be in great shape already :thumbup:

 

Also, pretty good information-list to show whenever someone asks how much work there is in a simulation module ;)

 

Already getting excited about this :)

PRESSURIZATION/AIR CONDITIONING

* Incorrect configuration leads to pilot blackout (WIP)

* Canopy fogging reacts to ambient conditions/"cold soak" (WIP)

 

ALTIMETER

* Vibrator modelled with ability to tap glass (WIP)

Have this features been attempted in other planes before?

Is the canopy fogging/cold soak based on any newly implemented mechanics of the core game / which ambient conditions already in DCS are relevant for this? As far as I know there is no moisture yet.

 

Oh, and thx for the extensive information! :)

Awesome, I seriously can't choose between this and the Hawk, although I will probably end up getting both as I did with the Huey/Mi-8M :)

Hi,

 

Thank you! :D

 

I updated the WIP items, and added the Flight Director system information.

 

FLIGHT DIRECTOR SYSTEM

* HDG mode

* VOR/LOC mode

* GO AROUND mode (WIP)

* REV mode (WIP)

* APP ARM (WIP)

* GS mode (WIP)

* GS EXT mode (WIP)

* ALT mode (WIP)

* PAT mode (WIP)

 

Flight Director system will be fully operational. FD computer is fully implemented, and work is progressing very nicely on the controller logic. Upgrades to the TARSYN simulation will follow due to internal fault monitoring logic being implemented as part of the FD system. wink.gif

The list needs another update. ;)

 

Best regards,

Tango.
