Sov13t Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Great video! :thumbup: If you don't mind me asking, if you guys are all flying on Warthogs what curves are you running on the Y axis to avoid sticktion?

Teej Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 We're using something very similar to the 40% curves we were using on FSSB/FCC Cougars. We've varied a little bit over the past year in finding what worked best. I, honestly, never felt any "stiction" even before I put the extension (Metalnwood's setup) on. Being the kinda guy I am though I can never leave well enough alone and have added some moly grease to mine anyway. We do, as we have for years, fly with a touch of "nose down" trim in the game so that we're always off the center anyway. We did that even with the force mods when there was no movement. "Tank! I need a program for a TM Warthog!"

Lange_666 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 (edited) Cool flying but... you should leave that pussy metal music out (that's really for woman, not for men), or at least put it way way more in the background. Muting is not an option since i want at least hear some engine noise if i look at a video like this... Now i did shut before (way) the end because of that.

Smokin Hole Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Chapeaux! Beautiful flying. I have all sorts of questions about how you modeled the F16 but I'll do a little searching to get the whole story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody asked you to watch let alone comment. Maybe if you were actually the leader of a team, had a busy life as a real airline pilot, could fly tight formation in-game, make high quality video productions, and get sponsored by an official game controller manufacturer... your opinion would maybe matter more.;) Edited November 19, 2011 by Viper101 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LawnDart Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 @Lange_666 I thought your comment was funny and everyone's entitled to their opinion. At least it wasn't Katy Perry! ;) Just shows that no matter what genre of music is chosen there's always someone with "better" taste. It's all good and thanks for all the comments!

LawnDart Posted November 19, 2011 Author Share Posted November 19, 2011 Saw the real thing practicing at Nellis Today. You guys look pretty damn close to the real deal!!! Thanks for the compliment! :) That's the idea. We even use the same timing (TOT) as the real team, so as you can imagine it's a handful to learn for someone who's new to it (counting seconds and flying params to a tee).
