Potential bug??

Recommended Posts

Experienced some strange effect after landing F-16.While taxiing for another take off and pulling the stick, elevators don't move anymore.Neverthesless i decided to go for another take-off. Lining up, rolling and even after reaching a speed of 250 knots you won't get airborn. I experienced this several times. Realism settings are set to hard.Maybe some other people with the same experience?

Any suggestions would be welcome.

I don,t know. When i am coming in too hard, then i should crash and this doesn't happen.

Thats a hard landing alright.

With the realism settings wound up, its very easy to over stress the aircraft but you dont get to see any physical damage other than the locked controls you've described.

Done this many times myself but using other aircraft.

I don't think its a bug.

One possible reason could be the AP is activated by accident. I know that happens to me a lot.So much indeed that I de-activated the AP durng most of the development.

He Mathijs, did some more landings and indeed a think the previous times i was coming in too hard and damaged the elevators.

Performed 7 to 8 landings with right speed and AOA, smooth flair and after each landing could take off witch visible working elevators.

So i think there is no problem.

Regarding the rudder as you stated: use it as less as possible.It is better during take off to stay centered by slightly applying some differrential brake.

Oh man, I had tons of landings like that in the beginning, destroying the elevators :lol: Not a bug, just a too hard landing. Keeping the right speed and AoA and you'll be fine.

I have not managed to land the bird yet, I hope I will by new year 2010 or so. I never could fly very well, I like slewing better...... :blink:
