Be that as it may the aircraft should turn smoother than it does in game and that’s a massive problem with it.
and you know why that is?
because it has a G-limiter and AOA-limter IRL

Which would make sense if the F-15, Su-30 and others can pull similar G and not have the aircraft jump all over the place.
It’s a limitation of Gaijin’s flight models. Canards function differently in game.
those arent unstable airframes like the EF
and the F-15 dosent even have a G or AoA limiter IRL
Yeah, ive noticed that too, the FM just gets… squirrelly at high alt. its wierd
Though Ive noticed issues in other aircraft too, like the Harrier IIs just spasm when you turn with a heavy load. So i think the instructor needs an overhaul more than anything else
And you think the more modern FCS on Typhoon would make it twitchy and hard to control when flying fast and at high altitudes?
It’s a is a problem with Gaijins interpretation of Canards and FMs.
the more modern FCS would make it smoother
but becasue there is no FCS with its AoA or G-Limit modeled it cant stop that
it really isnt, because the F-16 does the same
there is one thing all those airframes have in common, they are unstable and dont have their FCS modeled
Su30 is definitely a unstable air frame
how does the two seater cockpit of the aerodynamically stable Su-27UB and the canards of the aerodynamically stable Su-33 make the Su-30SM unstable
Because it would not buffer like a WW2 Mustang. These FCS systems are dampened we have seen Typhoons at airshows and the jet isn’t shaking around it is smooth.
I would bet that that canard and control surfaces are making 100s/1000s of micro adjustments to ensure the airframe turns at the exact rate the pilot has requested.
Since when are the su33 and su27un/su30 stable, what’s the point of its fly by wire then
again the FCS is making the EF fly smoothly
the same FCS that isnt modeled in war thunder
the same FCS that limits AoA and Gs
whats the point of the pilots ability to completly disable it if it is an unstable airframe
as it only limits elevator deflection
an unstable airframe is defined by its center of ligt being behind its center of gravity
if anything the canarards shift the ceneter of lift forward
yes in terms of War Thunder it is an issue that does need to be resolved…
yes and that issue is resolved by not pulling more than 25° of AoA like it does IRL
Structural limit is 29 degrees software is 20 degrees, gladly take reduced AOA for a stable fm
I’m so confused, what is the correlation between the two? As far as I know, the rocking of the airframe is an unintended consequence/bug and not intended in-game regardless if the aircraft IRL is unstable or not.
Here’s an accepted report on the matter, this is what luque is referring to I’m pretty sure:
[DEV] Rafale/EF2K Pitch Oscillation During Low Speed Maneuvers // Gaijin.net // Issues

The EF also sometimes suddenly generates lift out of nowhere. If you’re flying low and a curve, it lifts the plane upwards getting you from 50 m height to over 150 m without any input or even facing upwards the moment you try to level out again.

very good radar
okay come on that guy is basically notching you, it makes sense why a pd radar wasn’t detecting it
