Yeah, you’re probably right. I still have to make a successful flight with the FlyingIron Bf-109. She either kills me on take-off or on landing. ![]()
Flying in sim and flying real MIlitary aircraft are the same as driving in a sim and real world driving, BASIC operation is very SIMILAR, but it is not the same, there is little risk in simming worst case you end up resetting your flight, REAL LIFE people DIE if you loose concentration or forget something etc. that is why much like driving you need trainig and a licence. Most folk COULD fly a real aircraft, SOME could fly faster military too but ALL would need the correct training
Just for the record before the salt based assassination begins, NO I am not a pilot. However I AM sitting with one in fact an RAF FAST JET and VTOL instructor from RAF Marham
Apologies if this was covered before but my V-22 always fails both engines when flying under a bridge even with lots of clearance around the props. This is in easy mode and, to top it off, the ‘RESET FAIL’ button does not reset the engines failures. Are these known issues?
Happens with other aircraft under other bridges. Not a v22 problem
I’ve never had an engine fail flying under bridges with other aircraft. The only thing that happens is a weird bump, as if popping through an invisible membrane.
Haven’t tried it with the Osprey.
I can attest to this, and in the corsair - very easy to test going under the Golden gate bridge
This aircraft is strange … Sometimes i get an redout..
Can anybody explain this? But the Osprey is my numberone aircraft in this Sim. Can’t Stop flying IT.
The only thing i need would be these semifictional camouflage liveries ( Marines and fictional Israeli markings).
Turn off G effect in the sim settings.
Or don’t drop at such a prodigious rate as to cause the blood to rush to your head.
I had the same issue as HolzReaktor and did not fly negative G’s at the time. Never experienced it in any other plane.
EDITED: changed “positive” to “negative” g’s
So, I’m confused, you experienced redout even though you were not accelerating either up or down?
IOW, you were hovering or flying at constant altitude and constant speed? You weren’t descending from hover?
(I imagine this is what you meant, but redout is technically due to negative g’s. Positive G’s occur when you pull up against gravity, Negative G’s occur when you push down and dive toward the earth.
Or rather, positive g’s (blackout) occur when you accelerate such that the blood goes out of your head to your feet making you feel heavier, like turning level in a very tight circle, or flying an inside loop. Negative g’s occur when you force the blood out of your feet into your head bringing yourself towards weightlessness. So a redout could occur if you were descending from hover towards the ground to land, if you accelerated too quickly to the down direction. Semantics, but important.)
The sim’s blackout / redout effects have some trouble with aircraft that do weird stuff with their flight models that the sim wasn’t particularly made for. The Osprey definitely belongs in that category. It’s best to just switch them off.
My apologies, I meant negative g’s for redout, of course. I blame the coffee deficit I encountered when I posted.
Hello
I didnt’ fly the Osprey since the last release. From now, I have a problem with the throttle and cannot fly the plane any longer. Briefly here’s my problem:
Cold start, APU on, flight ready. Starting right engine, then left engine. Turbine is at 70% , throttle idle of course. A little taxi to clear the spot, nacelle at 87%, park brake unlatched, just a few mm of throttle on my TM TCA quad.
Turbine jumps to 103%, the helo takes off at 400 fpm.
Needless to say, everything worked fine with the previous version. So, what is this new engine throttle model, and do I have to tweak my dedicated profile?
Regards

That being said, Have you checked your throttle sensitivity settings? Seems like that could be the issue here. On the new engine model, throttle increases linearly with the throttle axis.
Thanks for answering.
The fact is I had inadvertently unchecked the Invert axis checkbox in the properties of the throttle axis.
My fault!
New product announcement - Releasing September 14th!
Has the issue with breaking the aircraft if the ramp is left open during flight been fixed? I like the bird but it’s sad that the ramp can’t stay down in flight.
Also it would be cool to have a mini option for the rear ramp when down.
Easy fix: disable the buggy crash detection.
