Hi I like it a lot! The control is just not very good I would recommend that you never use gyros on helicopters especially for yaw. For countering the rotor torque go into the xml values and set everything that says torque to zero. Then you will not need weight on one side or a gyro for it. You also want to have COM on the same x and z axis as the rotor. This should help you a lot. Good job on the details and cabin!
@Hedero No I don't want to get one bc the military actually doesn't like it when you have it. It ingrains you with a bunch of habits they have to boot out
Yeah AOA is hard to control in SP so most builders make it more stable for ppl with just keyboard and stuff. So most of the time I don’t get upset with AOA@GuyFolk
So before you come on here and call it’s flight control crap I would advise you to do some research. I like you bro but you shouldn’t do that it’s not cool at all @Hedero
Ok the hornet can NOT do the cobra. It’s FLCS system limits it to about 30 degrees AOA. for a pugachev cobra you are at 90ish AOA not gaining or losing altitude. In regular flight you have your FLCS on at ALL times. Especially with a payload or regularly fueled aircraft it would be impossible. The only case where hornets do extreme maneuvers at about 50 -60 degrees AOA are at air shows where they are fueled at about 30%, they are customized for air shows and there is no payload. Even if you could simulate that and turn off the FLCS in here, it takes an extremely experienced pilot not to crash. As I know people who have flown F-18s and fly F-18s and F-16s myself in DCS I attest to the fact that the f-18 is actually a less maneuverable aircraft than the F-16 which also cannot do any of those maneuvers.@Hedero
I hope you don’t mind if I do give you some tips to improve though. Most of it is technical. For the thrust make sure you are dividing the planes real life engine thrust by the simple planes engine thrust and you will have the engine power ratio to use to get correct thrust. That’s probably the only thing I can think of. If you really want to imitate the engine you can also do this with a regular engine without afterburner thrust and then add a VTOL engine with that extra thrust tacked on. If you need me to be clearer please let me know. I am excited to find another builder kinda like me and some others on here who are committed to realism
Wow!! I’m very very very impressed with the realism! The thrust is a bit off but everything else is spot on!
@Hedero
The turning speed is actually very accurate most planes can only pull up to 8to 9 Gs and it normally takes about 10 seconds to make a 180 in an F-18 at optimal speed. Gs are not the main unit in which to compare turning and I would advise you to did some research on it
While canards do have an effect on stealth it does not effect stealth qualities by much and is negligible if it has a stealth coating and the angles on the wings matches the canards.
Nice I always like your builds they are quite sleek. Im sure if you posted at better times you would get more upvotes. You are very underrated in my opinion
@WolfSpark I noticed that one but most of it depends on the altitude the higher you drop the more it spreads and you don't really have that problem. Even though some of the bombs explode mid-air they still spray part shrapnel everywhere. I could do a fix but IDK it might take forever. I took me a week alone to put the code inside the detachers.
@shipster yeah if that thing didn't break down it would have been awesome. Unfortunately, they tried a bunch of new things with it that didn't really work. The modern version of this is the littoral combat ships, oh those things drivetrains suck. They tried to use a combined gas and diesel gear and it just breaks the whole thing down.
My old pfp? Lmfao the bacon suit one? 😂decided it made me look like a meme player so I changed it. Lol the current one I have is a JAS-39 Gripen @zAerospace
See he worked for Honda this entire time! Lol why would they care about this website? That’s literally one of the funniest things I’ve ever heard!@EternalDarkness
I was saying the King tiger was underpowered I know it isn’t always about the caliber, most of the time it has to do with velocity and bullet weight helps sometimes. They improved on the tiger 1 with the king tigers high velocity gun. @shipster

+4@Red0Bull i cant get discord parents won't let
just tag me on your unlisted and ill respond to ur stuff via comments
POV: Russia's navy
+5Absolutely. Genius.
@Hedero Im on my way to college next year so Im trying to figure out if im gonna do the reserve backdoor or through ROTC in college
@Hedero @GuyFolk Im making a better version of this plane with AOA wing loading correct speed and weight
+2@Hedero No I don't want to get one bc the military actually doesn't like it when you have it. It ingrains you with a bunch of habits they have to boot out
Yep that’s the “feel” you get when you fly a real plane@GuyFolk

+1Wow.

+2Also, 200 mph is much too slow to perform aerobatics and would most likely stall at the first high AOA turn. The f-18s best turn rate is at 400mph.
+2Regular combat aircraft cannot do anything like a cobra nor can most air show craft. With the exception of the F-22 and Russian jets@Hedero

The gyro was pretty damn smart btw
+2Darn@Sm10684
Ik but your always posting lol @realSavageMan
+1Is it a shrek challenge?
Wow point farmer
Yeah looks deep fried lmao@NightmareCorporation
How tf do you have time to do this
It’s a Su-24 attack aircraft. The game just calls it a hellkeska cuz it’s an off brand@016Hiro
I mean it’s not that big a deal, I just like educating ppl abt this stuff@Homemade1

I wish
+3Harrier sold separatelyWhat is the hatch on the back for? Im interested how this thing works in RL
@shipster lol XD

@ArkRoyalTheDDhunter this is what I get for coming on to forums I should have known better
ok let me just say the way you did the sphere was genius lmao
@edensk watch me make a snake next lol jk
@WolfSpark Hey, That cluster munition was awesome. You probably just didn't attach it right or smthn. Thanks though

Lol I know most ppl haven’t seen it@rexzion
Low key funny no one ever upvoted my half track! That thing was dope! Guess I just posted it at the wrong time @KnightOfRen @rexzion
Lol thanks@Embo
Weapons are fun to make but I build fighters mostly, i think.@cyanidepls

Where’d you get the heli in the background btw?
