I only managed to climb up until 34,000ft while the plane struggles to maintain at 174kts indicated airspeed. This was done with max afterburners.<br /><br />I know you have already clarified in your earlier posts. Thought I share with you on my results.<br /><br />Thanks.Honeycoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16539033518775862802noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-40647245974681483492012-10-22T09:32:02.819+02:002012-10-22T09:32:02.819+02:00@Honeycool

I've kept the VRS Hornet as reference during test flights - and I believe performance is pretty close.<br />Proper "fix" should address .air file Drag vs. Mach table... but again, IMHO, the acceleration is reasonable...

SHIFT+5...Sorry for the multiple posts -<br /><br />@Honeycool<br />SHIFT+5 activates the ground-looking camera (F-35B only).<br /><br />As for the drag...well, I am open to discuss any change, but I have just finished a flight on the F-35B and the acceleration, in the default configuration and weights, seem just reasonable and similar to an F/A-18... but again, I have flown a supersonic jet - and can't tell for sure. Maybe the sound barrier is a little overdone...don't know. To me it is OK, but I have nothing agaist third party mods.ScimmiaSpazialehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04185511694079000055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-41073868537739314172012-10-21T13:16:26.700+02:002012-10-21T13:16:26.700+02:00Dino,

The Engines are correct,but the frontal area(Simulated Drag) is a little high. Been trying to contact Dino, no response. This change does not effect handling one bit.

The red and green wing navigation lights can only be seen from top-down external view. It cannot be seen from sideways.<br /><br />2. In VTOL, the aircraft still glides in the air when it ran out of fuel.<br /><br />3. The F-35B takes a long while to reach Mach 1+ with afterburners even it is less than 40,000 lbs.<br /><br />Apart from the above, I am generally very happy with this product.

They say on their forum if you contact them they will consider your aircraft, well not just yours but any who can meet the quality standards. Which I cant imagine your planes would not meet. just food for thought, but the idea flying your F-14 or F-35 in combat is kinda exciting.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10911331299123022721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-12116290105296557922012-10-18T16:51:26.620+02:002012-10-18T16:51:26.620+02:00@David

I have to confess I had a hard time getting a reasonable engine performance - it was either too much or too less powerful... Inaccurate ceiling is a drawback of the tweaking process.<br /><br />A (limited) radar functionality is already in the MFD (just minimize both windows in one half of the screen)... I am not adding proper radar functionality in future - but I will consider TacPac integration once the SDK becomes available.<br />ScimmiaSpazialehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04185511694079000055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1343953541946550800.post-28556729612677835802012-10-18T11:46:23.430+02:002012-10-18T11:46:23.430+02:00Jut bought this plane from Simmarket a coupel of d...Jut bought this plane from Simmarket a coupel of days ago! <br /><br />Its fantastic! Having great fun with it :) <br /><br />I have a coupel of questions though - I am having problems going up to high altitudes because the engine just doesn't seem strong enough while it should have service ceiling of 60'000feet? <br />- Will there be a radar coming to it as well? Always fun to hunt down other planes! :) <br /><br />Thnaks for a super plane. Worth every €!1840kb/shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04770760215912067851noreply@blogger.com
