  • Building help 8.8 years ago

    @Typhlosion130 Make sure the thrust vecoring is not more than 15 degrees, and also try making the CoM and CoL on the same horizontal plane, that makes it stable and much more maneuverable

  • Bandit Run 8.8 years ago

    Haha not sure if the wildcat will have a chance... it was my first plane with fuselage blocks

    Try thrust vectoring engines. This is when the engine rotates to change the pitch or roll of the aircraft. I reccomend VTOL nozzles for two-dimensional vectoring (only up/down).

    Also bigger engines with less weight helps. A higher thrust/weight ratio is essential. For example almost all fighter jets have a T/W ratio of >1 so they are more maneuverable and can accelerate in a climb

    Try bigger wings/more lift. Bigger wings will make roll slower but you can make those control surfaces bigger. Also move the Center of Mass closer to the Center of Lift. Finally, dont make the vertical stabilizer control surface too big. If the control surface is too big it will actually make the manuverability worse.

  • Manoeuvrability help ._. 8.8 years ago

    @DelphFoxFan bigger wings help with pitching, but smaller wings help with rolling. Also, dont make the control surfaces too big or the controls will be jerky and it will actually make the maneuverability worse.

  • Caught Chapter: #1 8.8 years ago

    @AnarchistAerospaceIndustries really they are pretty close. The 38 was less manueverable but had two engines (so more reliability), 51 is just more famous. Really the 38 could attack from any reasonable distsance because it had nose-mounted guns, while the 51 had wing mounted guns (so you had to be close enough for the bullets to diverge onto the target). Also, war thunder is not the most unbiased source... I mean, where's the P-38J?

  • How do you get out there? 8.8 years ago

    Its all about PR.
    Basically, talk smart, make clever names, and make good planes. If you cant do one of those, then the other 2 better be darn good.

    @Jettison The points system itself is competitive, although that is a key motivation to many players. I think it should still be added, but instead of commanders it could be Squadron leaders, flight leaders, etc.

    A secret weapon of the Seitwälder republic is in development. A few have spotted it, claiming it looks like a swing wing aircraft with impressive manueverability and sudden, extreme speed capability. Radars have not been able to verify the information. Brace yourselves, WSR, and good luck getting anywhere near Germany

  • For all you F-14 fans, meet the future game of dreams 8.8 years ago

    @WWIIPlaneBuilder Yeah, Im really into the air to air combat ( although air to ground isnt bad, but there will be an SU-25T for that). Do you know if the hornets in DCS will be better than the F-14A/B? I know most of the hornets will at least be more modern and will win a (now rare) close dogfight. Are they better at BVR?
