New and improved American 5th-Gen air-superiority stealth fighter, the F-44-B7 Star Raven! This model has had many of its supermaneuvering factors more finely tuned over its previous counterparts, including yaw, and especially with anything related to cobra maneuvers, as pilots will experience much more obedience in PSM now. Between these attributes, its auto-aiming 20mm vulcan turrets, its dozen radar-guided missiles in its internal weapons bay and cockpit specialized for situational awareness, overall, she is a multi-ranged force to be reckoned with! Take her for a ride! I promise she won't bite, unless you do...
AG1: Supermaneuver
AG2: Formation Lights
AG3: Auto-Aim Miniguns
AG4: Arm Missiles
AG5: Air Brake (Rudders)
AG8: Canopy
Hope you enjoy!

@Mantha thanks, bro! Don't forget to like!
Holy crap. I think this thing is SIXTH gen lol, this is air superiority at is pinnacle.
I redid my homepage and I would like you to take a look. My top friends I have not only their special icon representing them but they also have a cool little animation for each person. New page is Here
@Lifewald you most certainly did! Nice!
@SkyJayTheFirst Did i just do it?(please ignore the nose tap)
ill try to do a yaw spin later
@SkyJayTheFirst Np comrade
@IceCraftGaming I don't even think I was going for that look, but I did. Anyway, thanks for the upvote!
Nice! Looks like a sword blade
Why ping? For free exposure?@SkyJayTheFirst
@SkyJayTheFirst
Yes, for now.
Not until you know how exactly aoa work both irl and in SP and how rudders can control pitch.
You know... just to not over-complicate things.
@GuyFolk so are you saying that I'm not supposed to use angle of attack in the rudders at all?
@SkyJayTheFirst
Angle of slip in the code (in this version) is just use to determine whether the plane go forward or backward, it didn't contribute to any stability.
You'll need more code that involve angle of slip to really make it work as stabilization.
I think you should learn more about what angle of slip and angle of attack do, and the problem will sort itself out.
I want this to be your Eureka moment lol.
Hint:
Cobra is high angle of attack.
Angle of attack is not in yaw axis.
@GuyFolk I already have angle of slip in the rudders, though. Why do the rudders only turn left during a cobra when set to negative, but turn right during a cobra when set to positive?
@SkyJayTheFirst
That's what I really mean in the first comment.
So I think you got some terminology mixed up.
So I think what is the closest to your description is flat-spin.
And you also want the plane to side slip freely by pointing rudders into the wind so it'll provide minimal yaw stability.
The thing is angle of attack has nothing to do with this, what you need is angle of slip which is angle of attack but for yaw.
@GuyFolk I've noticed something with the rudders, and angle of attack. When I set angle of attack to negative, and then cobra, the rudders only ever turn to the left. When I set them to positive, the rudders go right instead. How am I supposed to fix that?
@tarikGR thanks!
Quite nice
This looks great @SkyJayTheFirst!
@GuyFolk like I said a while ago, I wanted it to do Morgan Pixy things, therefore I wanted it to spin smoothly, yaw-wise. I didn't achieve that, just yet, but I know I'll get there.
I think it's flight control is pretty much on point now.
And I've noticed the rudder react to aoa which will force the plane to yaw to the right when doing cobra or other high aoa maneuver.
One question is what you intended to do with aoa code in rudders?
