Air Resistance

[=LD=Hethwill]

Was watching this at lunch break

 

 

and paying attention to stick and rudder moves along with how the bird is responding tot he inputs.

 

Maybe we should have the air resistance increased in BoS, it is quite noticeable in the video, but in the game we have faster response on stick and rudder actions.

 

No idea if code behind allows it but it could improve the overall feeling.

I don't know, I didn't see anything convincing considering he was doing minimal input and receiving minimal output. The plane wasn't quickly rolling when he applied about 2 inches of left stick, just a small bank.

Off-topic: the lateral visibility in the Yak 3 seems to be pretty awful. The cockpit looks nice and spaceous but the pilot seems to be very low down in the cockpit.

Yes, I don't know as well, but it surely doesn't do the sudden elastic moves that is for sure.

[FuriousMeow]

For sure. Just to offer a different viewpoint, the amount of stick movement he is using there, is a very slight push on our joysticks - unless you have an extension of course. When I'm just doing basic turns, nothing too much, I just nudge my stick a little and I don't have an extension so "a little will do ya" applies for me and when I do that there isn't any strange elastic moves, noticeable adverse yawing, or other extreme behaviors.

It is a G-4 and well worth a watch.

 

I enjoy a lot to see a lot of rudder and pitch work for the turns instead of aileron.

 

Also the stick rest position seems to be highly comfortable and ample.

 

Also you can watch slat working on the right edge.

Indeed. The Yak canopy really is very small and quite low. It's more akin to a transparent diving helmet.

On the G4 video - hard to see because of the viewing angle but once he has put the aeroplane into a banked turn it looks as though he is cross controlling with the ailerons.

Opposite pull to get it into a slide maybe

S!

 

 Quite a few things noted on that Bf109G-4 video that contradict BoS behaviour altogether Thanks for sharing.

[GOZR]

A lot contradictions but ain't bad for a game. It's what I say to myself now.

Either way, its an awesome 'experience'. When I was playing "Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe" in the '90s I would only dream of this quality.

I fail to see that "many contradictions" but, guys, still keep in mind that this 109 G4 "Rote Sieben" is flown without any weapon and the possible weight differences between a few liters or full fuel too, and the fact she's been reconstructed many times after many crashes.
