Aerofly FS "new sim"

[TomcatViP]

What I see on your vid is that there is nearly no aero model. The plane act with itself only and the air does not seems to slow it that much.

In my mem the Pitts had a 270°/sec roll rate so it might be even more snap rolling it

see there ard min 1

Well, there's discussion about the Pitts, I've asked to some Pitts pilots of my aeroclub, some of them reported that the rotations of my video are exagerated, but at least one pilot told that it was really like that, it dependes on the pilot, fully deflecting or not the flight controls.

I hope that Ecodragon comes back and tells us his oppinions, it would be nice that he tests the plane, so he is a Pitts pilot.

Some things must be tuned in this sim anyway...


But it has a lot of potential... just see the wind and a crosswind landing with speed excess:

The damage model is simple, it comes from an RC simulator, but I feel it as acceptable for a civillian simulator:

At least there IS damage model, not like FS and it's "Crash" ridiculous message!

Testing some sutile aspects of flight model...

Propwash test, comparing Aerofly FS with the best Extra 300 expansion for X-Plane 9 and 10.

When I mean that CoD has no propwash, I mean that this effect is not modelled. And this is a must be in a propeller plane simulator!

Don't forget that CoD hve to deal with higher speed and heavier airframe. You can't use basic airfoils calculations to get a representative model (at least if you intend to do a serious work - yuck yuck)

To show us that the prop wash is really an INTEGRATED feature of the FM pls re-test with different load-out (CG) and let's see how it varies.

The damage model is good. Remind me a lot a certain unspecified looking glass product

But what means this savage assault against parked cars ? Is the one of your boss in the lot ?

Maybe that's the problem of the F-18 on this simulator, it behaves Ok but i has no G limits and ir tuns more than the real thing.

I can only say it works in all prop planes. CG and loadouts can't be changed for the moment. Anyway I've re-tested it comparing to X-Plane's Extra 300 Patty Wagstaff edition, and I can say that both planes are the best Extra 300 ever modelled... although X-Plane's one is the Extra 300S and the Aerofly FS one is the 330LX, not exactly the same plane:

Lol!

Thanks for the video's Tuckie, I didn't know about AeroflyFS. It looks like it has some nice features.

S!

Well, this product could turn out to be something with time Only shame it is civilian flying which I do not like at all..boring to say the least
