Don’t mind me, just pulling a little more than 16.5g…

It actually goes even higher than this, its just hard to time print screen screenshots cuz they close my game, which is why I usually just use F12, but i figured ud say I was lying about the fuel load or something dumb like that.

This is the highest I've seen it gone (on any jet):

i mean sure thats instantaneous, so not surprising. pull more than 16.97 gs for more than 6 seconds and ill be surprised.

9080

I just wounder how a game which is meant to be somewhat realistic allows these G pulls. What about the pilot ???

9082

What? i just stated a fact. I didn’t pit any feeling/emotion behind it. All i did was list out numbers that statshark spat out to me.

  1. Statshark is decent, but dont take it as gospel. Its often wrong to some degree, so take all it gives you with a grain of salt.
  2. You dont understand the chart if you pulled 16.5g as the G-limit for the Rafale. Thats the statshark stated lift limit, which is what statshark assumes to be the max G-load that can be pulled considering the parameters inputted and the amount of lift the jet can produce. There is no G-limit on the chart.
  3. You clearly dont understand what max G-limits are in general if you think “it only pulled 20G+ for a short bit, no big deal, G’s only count if they’re sustained”

Sorry if I’m coming off a little short, I’m not a fan of ppl spreading misinformation.

15g/s This is not a structural limit, but the rate at which overload is created. Stop wishful thinking

I would suggest actually reading the full conversation rather than looking at a post and assuming you know what I was referencing, as @Jεcka pointed out, I am no in way making the argument that 15G onset is a 15G load. I do in fact say that 12G as in the “up to 12G” is the limit.

I wonder what would happen if there would be a feature for the topic creator to ban certain people from entering it…

No one will make an 18G aircraft, or the safety factor is only 1.05-1,1

9089

Cool ignore the point where you failed to follow the conversion

I mean yeah it’s hard to understand english if your first language is a competely different language with different roots.

i have the same problem, but its one thing to be understanding of the fact and be aware of the matter.
And another things to act superior and like your own opinion is always right when you arent even able to understand the basic meaning of words even after throwing them trough translators 10 times

Agree, but if I am not super confident that I understand something correctly then I don’t pretend to know better and be passive aggressive.

English isn’t my first language either and I sometimes need to double check that I got it right, but some people just assume something and then start acting in bad faith.

Could be only a matter of time until we see AI-chatbots which have the order to make a nonsensical point no matter the cost ignoring everything you throw at them. Exhausting everyone else in the process killing all healthy discussions, effectively preventing change/improvements. War of attrition against machines style… Automated trolling.

thats already possible, all you need is a good prompt
