Supermaneuverability

[cjgace 0]

This is probably a noob question but does anyone know if any of the "modern era" aircraft are supermaneuverable? I've downloaded the F-22 but can't make it do backflips or Cobra's. Might be a piloting problem but I don't think I'm getting the high alpha seen in airshows.

[Stick 773]

try the chinese flanker at marcfighters.

[rovert97 1]

that plane is more twitchy then super maneuverable.

[eraser_tr 29]

The F-22 at the moment doesn't have the pitch linked thrust vectoring, so its actually rather castrated compared to the real one. At the moment it doesn't work properly in the sim, hopefully we'll see that fixed soon.

[Stick 773]

make one and then talk you bums!

[Rambler 1-1 9]

also try setting your flight model to normal or hard. Or just pretend to be supermanuverable while you blow down MiGs BVR.

[ONETINSOLDIER 2]

may not be "super-manuverable", but it has a helluva cieling!

What is wrong with it? Maybe I can teak on it. Not sure who did the original FM...

[Silverbolt 104]

Try change the Raptor FM with this Fulcrum....

[FastCargo 412]

lindr,

 

Those inputs will not work...you will not get any pitch up thrust vectoring.

[eraser_tr 29]

What is wrong with it? Maybe I can teak on it. Not sure who did the original FM...

 

Only that the thrust vectoring isn't supported, which you guys can't do anything about yet

Maybe you could get the weapons door to open automatically too while your at it...

Oh, a comedian.

[Fubar512 1,350]

The FM is not my work. I had declined the project when it was offered to me, as I was busy with a RL project at the time.

 

One of my other reasons that I gave at the time (and still stand by), was, that releasing the F-22 without proper thrust vectoring, would be akin to having released an F-111/MiG-23/F-14 (etc.), without variable sweep wings. BTW, Mike's first Raptor model, though a bit rough around the edges, did have working weps bays and gun flap doors.

[FastCargo 412]

And folks, let's clear some things up before people get confused.

 

1) There is no proper pitch linked thrust vectoring available at the moment. Now, if you want to use thrust vectoring using the separate manual control, that is possible...however, you will be very limited in either the up or down direction. The main reason is that the AI will fly with the thrust vectoring at one of the limits of travel.

 

2) Auto weapons doors seem to be hit or miss. I did EXTENSIVE tests on the F-35, using MAX and ini edits. The only thing I found consistent was that if the weapons were in the positive X axis (X coordinate at 0 or higher), the weapon auto door would work. Which is why Zur's Talon seems to work...all the weapons are on the centerline. Manually, the doors worked fine. Also, for jettison, the auto open function would work.

I'm still trying to trace it down...but I've tried damn near everything...every possibility just about. At least for missiles...haven't tried gravity weapons yet.

Ooops... My bad. I thought it was Mike's F22

[w3llt1n 4]

someone already found the tricks in thrust vectoring...?
