aircraft easy help

[Guest rscsjsuso5]

i have an aircraft that only shows up half way on the runway while the other half is sinked to the ground and thus making waepons and afterburner and pilot not in tact or what sees to be any suggestions would be helpful thanks very much.

If you want easy help, we need more information. And screenshots would be nice.

hi fc me again i know u are busy but u asked for more info

aircraft is BQM-34 Drone

 

screen below

 

just had some free time and fooling around even though the AI blows up the aircraft is flyable with ground mapping recon mode for radar

 

hope u have a suggestion or any1 for any type of aircraft universally .

 

i also understand that this aircraft doesn't do well on runway and only starts on air is best .

 

thanks all and FC

Well, usually with something like this...it's because it has no landing gear defined in the data.ini.

In real life, how to launch BQM-34 Drone?

[+Wrench]

Well, since it's only AI controlled, they 'spawn' on their own.

 

in Real Life ™, air-launched from a mother ship (ala C-130s in SEA), or rail/trailer launched with a rocket booster, just like a SAM.

 

recovery was even easier ... it's inertial nav system brought it to a 'general recovery area', it deployed a parachute and floated gently to the ground for pickup; either vehicle (AAA Tow Truck <grin>) or helo.

 

the one we have in game is SUPER super old...like from 2004 or 05. Was only designed for use on The Range terrain ... but there was a slight problem; with an enemy airfield to spawn from, they never appeared. However, in user-built missions, they could be forced to appear for gunnry/missle practice.

 

with reference to FCs post, it actually DOES have landing gear defined in the data ini ... I'll bet real money theres an issue with rolling radi, and probalby even the world center ™ in the LOD. We've seen the 'sunken aircraft' issue with other, older aircraft (iirc, one of the early F-15 mods), that can probably only be fixed in MAX.

 

Why anyone would want to waste time trying to 'fly' it is well beyond my capabilities to understand; with so many other 'realy flyables' around. It don't carry nothing but fuel...
