In regard to muscle memory, I had once purchased a TM Cougar on ebay, turns out the seller lived nearby and when I asked her if the controls were comparable to the real thing she said (as an ex AF-Falcon driver) " No, it's not the same response she was accustomed too. A. The throttle (obviously we've all now seen the TM Viper TQS) wasn't the same and the F.L.C.S. had too much travel. There are mods available to the Warthog and Cougar that realistically limit the amount of travel from null to enough but it's my understanding the "enough" was to allow T-Birds to perform their aerobatic sequences as nullifying the movement felt "unnatural". I'll go one further and ask this question...if Angels "bungee pressure" (15lbs nose down) do the Birds also replicate the same nose down at all and with such limited movement available...How?

Real question: if youre at supersonic speeds in a jet, what does it actually sound like in the cockpit to fire the jet's weaponry? Do you hear it at all over the engines, and if so, does it kind of sound weird? Like, is there a doppler effect to it or something, or does it just sound normal in the cockpit, etc?

I did a flight simulator that you had to get inside a motion capsule where the controls & screens show the displays👍 I could take off & land on the ground but couldnt land on a aircraft carrier Flight Deck😂 The instructor said I did better then alot of actual pilots. Dogfighting was a blast👍

I wanted to be a fighter pilot for the first half of my life, so this was like a "what if" for me. I develop games now, but I love aviation games. It would also be cool to see you play more arcade-like games, like Ace Combat. Loved this vid!

2:00 "He's a little rangey for a gunshot". Question here; in a real combat scenario, would you have to be concerned with where the missed rounds would go if you were to fire. What I mean is, if you were in a position to fire the gun, but perhaps you expected only 60% of all rounds fired to hit the target, would you have to consider where those 40% of fired rounds went (and therefore landed)? I suppose in a life or death encounter with the enemy, that might not be a concern, but it still interests me. Just imagining some woman in the next country over taking her dog for a walk and suddenly the ground around her gets peppered with stray rounds.

@jordanderson 5 ай бұрын

The gun on the F-16 has an effective range of ~10,000 ft. so outside of that the rounds would slow down and drop.

I ejected in the merge last week. I found out that DCS changed my control bindings and mapped EJECT to my radar-on switch for some reason. I didn't have time to figure out what the name of that key binding was, so I just bound my radar switch to the ejection handle. I need time away from work to figure out the name of the radar binding in that 200 mile long list of binds. Until then, I just pull the ejection handle to toggle radar on and off. If I need to eject I just flip the radar switch.

Go into the adjust flight controls for the aircraft you are flying, click on the column for the stick or throttle (which ever has the mapped button) and push the button or switch that is ejecting you and it will take you right to the mapping. Right click and clear combo. Then bind it to the command you want.

Are there usually server or weapon restrictions to make these dogfights happen? Most DCS matchups i see theyll start with a flyby or in the turn already, is this bc BVR combat wouldnt be as fun or balanced? Or is this how things actually go if you dont have a dedicated long range aircraft/setup?

The reason for an initial merge in 1v1 BFM is just to have a neutral start in a guns only or short range missile fight. IRL, you would go from long range missiles to medium/short range then to guns and it’s by any means necessary.
