How many non-combat simmers will the Su-26 attract?

Are you sure? I thought the anti matter guns / ray guns / laser beams, w/e were just an inside joke (Luthier's attempt at humor) You can't really mount weapons to the Su26 in Clod can you? If so, someone make a video.

Is that really what it sounds like in game?

That is awful.

No not sure, sorry, flew it once with external views off...I had a hard time loading my shotgun too.

: Cool:

By the way, the Su-26 sounds ok ingame, is really fun to fly, and the physics in CloD is better than in any flight sim i flew. Maybe tme Su-26 need some tweaks in FM, but CloD have a really good flight sim engine.

Some people just need to install the last beta patch and see all evolution in performance, work done in FM and DM, and not just keep focus in negative things.

The naysayers beggins to be more boring than the fanboys...

Sure, I own every other sim there is, and use each one for what it does better than the others, but none of them, no sim ever produced does a very good job of modelling edge of the envelope physics as it pertains to aerobatic aircraft. I saw the potential of the IL-2 engine a long time ago, and that is why we were using Fw-190s as our demonstration aircraft, even though "FSX was out", as was X-Plane, Condor, LockOn, and more recently sims like Aerofly fs which is more or less dedicated to aerobatic flying, and day VFR "fun". Yet we still waited for a sim that wasn't a joke in the aerobatic FM department, we hoped the SU-26 would deliver.

At this point, I am unable to try it....and most of my acro friends are waiting on me to give them my review. I'm trying to ignore some of the silly things I see in the videos right now, and I'm ashamed that the thing has Rayguns and crap on it...but whatever, we'll see.

+1, will test it here soon, when official patch will be released.

For the moment, all I can say, is that Su-26 is hard enough to allow a pilot survive to crashes like these ones (one looses a wing at low altitude):

I've met that guy once, he is Alexander Krotov. He survived both crashes.

I've seen some CoD videos with some impossible maneuvers, all of them involving an excess of rudder control. But we'll see, all of this is adjustable.

Tuckie, why are you waiting for official patch?

Llike somebody else mentioned before in other Su-26 thread that will be the last patch for Cliffs and I doubt that developers will work on FM for current planes any more.

Maybe if you give them some remarks as real Su-26 pilot they could fix some things for the last patch because they are still working on FM at the moment.

Beta is easy to applie, and it is even easier to revert back to official 1.05 version.
You can have both versions on your PC and use them both if you have enough free space on your hard drive.

I'm shure that lot of us would like to hear your opinion about FM of Su-26.

I do not install betas, maybe I would like to install this one as a special exception, but right now, due to RL I have no time to test anything not to grab a few Su-26 real pilots to do a serious testing... I only flew once the Su-29, which has a different behaviour, but I know some Su-26 pilots that can say something about it. One of them uses X-Plane but not CoD, so I have to manage then to come to my home or go to a home of a flightsimmer with CoD installed. Some of them are 600 km far away from here...

Maybe in a month or two I'll can, but not right now.


If it's the last patch of CoD and something is wrong, it can be corrected on BoM patches, like it was done in 1946, I hope...


A lot of time ago, Oleg Maddox asked me the same, I responded that I could organize a testing, but got no answer. That was short before Oleg exited 1C, maybe he did not respond for thet reason.

I wonder how many non-combat simmers the Su-26 will attract.

[Feathered_IV]

More to the point, how many non-combat flight simmers are specifically interested in the Su26. And if those, how many will consider buying clod.
