r4y30n started following Virpil F-14 Grip, Tomcat optimum non-maneuvering airspeeds and Turn rate has tanked with new update

And the simplest, least scientific method is the AoA tape: 5 units for climb, 8.5 units for cruise.

I hope they have such tools for their own use. If they do it would be a huge benefit to standardization across modules if they shared them, never mind the massive amount of time saved by third party testers.

Took a couple months to get mine but I hear they’re always trying to speed up orders. Not sure what it’s like right now. The grip itself is really well made but the weapon selector can be a little sticky if you’re thumb isn’t on it just right.

NOOB QUESTION: F-14 unflyable, what am I missing here?
r4y30n replied to Zohardv's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Getting that slow in the vertical is the only time I've stalled the TF30s in the A so far and splitting the throttles at the same time is likely to cause a flame out in one or both. The F110s in the B are less likely to fail, but you're still throwing the plane into a spin on purpose. Better to not get that slow in the first place. -

Minimum RPM is governed by the Mach lever on the TF30s and it will increase both at high AoA and at high speed.

Patch Nov 18th - F-14A release - Feedback Thread
r4y30n replied to IronMike's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Probably. In landing config the entire wing, including flaps, is above the centerline of the engines as well as over half the speed brake. -

Well, no... It says it was designed to survive hitting 9 g once, not on a regular basis.

It’s on the nose gear under the landing light and functions the same as the AoA indexer in the cockpit.

NEW Afterburner Gate option + keybind.How does it work?
r4y30n replied to GunSlingerAUS's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
It's a gate, like the shift gate in a car. Not a detent but performs the same function. -
CADC / Wing Sweep failure in Instant Action Case I (Supercarrier)
r4y30n replied to Uxi's topic in DCS: F-14A & B
Well, this part seems to be working, at least. Prior to the big update, the wings were always in auto at start. Since the update, every start in the A has had the wings back already. -
Is the left engine always ahead of the right? I'd expect light off to be more random.

CADC / Wing Sweep failure in Instant Action Case I (Supercarrier)

I had the same issue in that mission and found that hitting the master reset as soon as I started cleared it up.
