kevins Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I was watching a youtube video of a real A10 performing at an airshow doing loops and pop up manuevers. When I try that in the sim it just does not seem to have the energy and I experience loss of control. Airspeed goes to LOW real fast. Reduced fuel to 2000 lbs and no ordnance. Is there something I need to disable? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeyTheLung Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Try less fuel and make sure to get rid of the gun ammo. Afaik real world demo birds are really stripped down, no pylons and a lot of other "superfluous" parts are removed Some who knows specifics will probably explain more thourghly System specifications: Computer, joystick, DCS world, Beer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevins Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Figured it out. I was pulling too hard on the stick! Eased off and she looped just fine. I sure love this simulator! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Upload a track to the forums. You should be able to do loops, Immelmanns, knife-edge passes, even stall turns (though I doubt that the later is ever performed by real A-10 pilots). After flying a mission, hit the button "Save Track". The track will be saved in C:\Users\<your account name>\Saved Games\DCS\Tracks. Multiplayer tracks are saved automatically (time-stamped) in .\Tracks\Multiplayer. Here's a track of me doing some aerobatics at 50% fuel. Your aircraft SHOULD handle like this.aerobatics.trk Edited August 28, 2012 by Speed Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

Razor5-1 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yes in real airshows the aircraft are at minimum weight to complete their demo. Fuel is enough to complete display, divert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speed Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Figured it out. I was pulling too hard on the stick! Eased off and she looped just fine. I sure love this simulator! Great! When I joined my first Falcon 4 squadron, they had this entrance exam to do all these maneuvers- high speed over the top, low speed over the top, 400 knot 360 degree turn at 6 gs, etc... easy! I thought. After the second or third attempt I was beginning to think it was impossible! That's when I found out how inefficient I had always been with my turns. Before, I had always turned too hard, needlessly wasting energy. All squads should use a similar entrance exam! Intelligent discourse can only begin with the honest admission of your own fallibility.

marcos Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) You should be able to do loop-the-loops, Immelmanns and reverse Immelmanns with full fuel load, just get up plenty of speed and height and go steady with the stick. I do some untidy stuff below with a control pad after the Kamov bit (fast forward that). Do some low level flying at 50ft too but then crash getting carried away.Goose.trk Edited August 28, 2012 by marcos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
