How high are your Black Ops settings. How much better does performance get when settings are lowered. Which lower settings get the best improvement. If ramping anti-aliasing and the other settings on the card control panel up make no difference your card is probably fine. How good is your PC running...

Forget the fighter! I could spot those exhaust cans on radar a mile off! That said China is the largest bubble in the history of the world! Think America is crazy with currency and market manipulation, that's nothing compared to how China operates. Chinese banks are carrying way more bad debts than ...

Yea it definitely is. What's odd is that it looks like the left engine is idling but he rolled to the right. If the right engine stalled the nozzle wouldn't be closed. So either he accidentally gunned the left engine into burner and the right was not lit producing asymetric thrust, or the left engin...

It's decidedly unsafe, he stopped using the mask because w/o an actual O2 connection you're sucking CO2 more than air. :wink:

One thing that I've found cannot be simulated is the sound of your voice inside an O2 mask. Striker has one and just plugging the thing into his computer gives an outstanding "radio" effect.

Quick Q for the beta testers, is the throttle handle metal or plastic? The action looks nice, reminds me of the old Suncom throttles. :)

Nice vid, great low alt shots!

Only thing that caught me out was you could clearly see the aircraft colliding in some of the close formation shots.

Looking forward to your first FC2 movie :)

The Norway spiral was massive, not to mention lower than what you saw in Australia and it left a mysterious blue trail behind it. No one came up and said "hey that was our missile", some think it was the Russians but they never confirmed. The one you saw didn't have that trail and it was much small...

I haven't done Cubby's mod and have the stick play when pulling in the Y-Axis. But when the movement hits is maximum and I have no further movement until I push forward on the stick. I have to push because I do tail slides in our show but if you're just doing formation work a liberal amount of nose ...

Welcome to the big show :) I like the change to F-86s, should make for a gorgeous diamond. A bit of quick advice, try to bust out a movie before December VFAT. I've found in the past the next best thing to flying a live show is making a movie, it really brings a team to new levels. Plus it shows the...

Yeah Ker, we went through this when first doing our F-16CJ. Any deviation from the pilot's head position or Aircraft CG vs. Model CG results in some corruption of the flight dynamics. Just a matter of how much they get messed up. The VPJT will be doing everything we can to maintain this silky smooth...
