I flew it a bit. Seems for me that is not needed any trim as looks it flies pretty straight out of the box. Its turn rate is also fantastic good... and very hard to stall it. All these makes me wonder how accurate is the FM.. I am not saying it is not true how is modeled, I just don't know how close to reality it is.

The systems however are modeled very nice.... and the landing gear ... well it requires to read the manual to operate them :)

Good Morning in Europe.

I have a problem using the I-16.

After buying the Module i can not fly it.

I only can use it as AI Plane in the Editor.

The Installation seems correct because it is listed in the installed Modules.

There is now errormessage or a Message about not activated.

Is it a Problem of the last Open Beta Update from yesterday?

When i use the Quick Options the setup the plane in the air or on the ground there is no plane visible or an error Message.

 

greetings

 

Andi

Does it? 'Cause visually it seems like there's only 4x7.62mm.

 

Here are some pics from (shame on me) WT. The look of Type 24 with 4x7.62 and Type 27 with cannons.

Cannons look quite large and not similar to what we have in DCS module yet.

We could not resist to test it in multiplayer asap :].

 

 

Apart for some aesthetic bugs (like gear showing always down in other players planes or doors not opening in the view of other players) we had a lot of fun :D.

 

Might be quite floaty with flaps, and can fly really slow without stall. No expert here so I leave this to real pilots that could give us some feedback about it.

 

Beautiful sound and amazing texture work

 

Overall. very unique to fly, nice maneuverability and aerobatic capabilities.

 

Great work OctopusG, best early access plane I have ever seen.

Keep the good work !!! What will be next? MiG3, early 109?

Sorry if I missed this but does anyone have any feedback on this thing in VR. Specifically is there a greater sense of speed due to the open cockpit? Wind noise for example.

I think you are right, our I-16 seems to have four 7.62 ShKAS machine guns, i don't know why War Thunder says the Type 24 has 2x7x62 and 2x20mm.
