None afaik, the devserver will stay open until june 13 so there’s still hope for some fm adjustments on the flanker and the fulcrum, but chances are minimal i’d say.
It’s better to have low expectations tbh
not biased at all. don’t give russia thermal pod ever, be happy only with su25sm3

Thank you very much. It’s good that in simulator battles the lower stability and the possibility of going into spin is simulated. Your pictures don’t work, which is a shame.
Above 24 AoA the stickl starts to vibrate and if he moves the stick quickly the frequency increases and that means for the pilopt to slow its movement ?
To be fair, Sapsan-E never actually existed, it was actually a shell of a pod whose creator was subsequently sued for fraud.
I guess it could be added, but something like T220 would be more believable, as the pod at least actually exists.

It existed. It’s just manufacturer decided to pretend it’s not.

Could you provide me some sources on that? Not that I don’t believe you, this is just contrary to what I’ve heard before.
I’ll work on providing a link to the Sapsan being paper.
Did anyone notice more wing rips happening recently on live?

Thermal pods should definitely be given to Russian aircraft, without them many miss out on laser guided ordinance that they should have.

Yes I noticed its started doing it more beginning of week, I think? Was going to say something I just figured because I havent played it as heavily.
Ripped 3-4 games & knew it could not be me. It was me, but yeah it rips noticeably easier.
The Flanker on dev does too. Even if carrying much lighter R-77s. To be honest I am not really feeling the effects of the Su27SM get lighter carrying the R-77s. Still feels roughly the same weight to me.
If you fly with any angle of attack, how can you say it has no aerodynamic effect? Of course, it will regardless of if it was placed there with no intention of doing so or not.
I know you have formal knowledge in fluid dynamics. You really going to say it does nothing, has zero effect? No drag or vortices if flown at any angles of attack? Not saying by design just simply by existing.
their influence is so small that they can be ignored. And I have no formal knowledge of hydrodynamics.And the fundamental ones
At least you can concede to that. Thats reasonable.
I agree I think they are minimal & said that from the beginning.
Except that they probably only do anything in the highest angles of attack & will not be missed if they were taken.
I actually think it should help the Flanker reduce drag in a rate. Just fyi vortex generators help aircraft achieve greater take off weights & landing performances they look small but can do many things. Not say that is what it did.
Hydrodynamics? ok yeah, it is a subfield of fluid. I get you.
As you can see, they don’t take into account the models at all, neither the antennas nor the covers are anything.Even pylons are sometimes not taken into account, but only suspended rockets

Yes, you are absolutely right but that model has the canards.
To be fair. The canards would completely eliminate any need of any vortex generators as they produce large vortices when deflected.
If you can find me the original Flanker in the tunnels without it. That would convince me.

According to the manual, if you move the stick hard enough, you can override the stick’s damping limit and briefly gain a larger usable AOA. Of course, on the Su-27 there is a “direct control” button that allows analog DEL.
Image not visible? I’ll try to figure that out.

This option was also being worked out. and it was called the Su-27S with a PGO
