Irregular programming Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 1st takeoff was easy, taking off with rockets or worse bombs on board is a pain. I have yet to manage it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
element1108 Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Well.. i consider my 1st landing a success. Without looking at the manual and more importantly looking at the control setup i took to the skies to see if the install had worked. And with no throttle control, as it was not mapped, i managed to land at full throttle and walk away! :D Walk away from the plane maybe, but your ground crew would probably punch your lights out for the amount of work yo just caused him (or her) ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodBorza Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 My second attempt on take-off. I was so bad doing this, that I had to actually "ressurect" my old CH Throttle in order to have a better torque control. The joystick that I used for the A-10 has a built-in throttle lever in it, but doesn't allow for a long and controlled throttle setting. Once I installed it, I got to take off on the first attempt. Throttle is everything to tame this beast. This is an amazing sim! 'Nuff said!:pilotfly: YouTube: SloppyDog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wichid Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 My new hobby is taking off, landing and repeating with full realism. I still seem to land hard at 100mph. Not sure if I should be flaring more or keeping some speed up. Do you guys engage the tail wheel steering after touch down to not spin out? I'm still crashing out quite often!
