What a treat this aircraft is!  I agree with someone's comment that the hover stability is fantastic.  Some people think it's ugly, but I think it has a brute purposefulness to it.  This has become my favourite jet by far lol!

After a few test flights I've got the hang of it and now in some test dogfights against multiple enemies I've been transitioning to hover, catching my breath and then screaming off at terrain level to avoid AAMs!  Jets trying to splash me have been flying into the ground after not being able to pull out of high speed gun runs and their AAMs have been slamming into the turf regularly.  I think the latter is due to the accurate modelling of early AAMs and radars with limited 'look down/shoot down' capability.

I have only one question: I've seen some stats saying that the top speed of the '36 was 1,150 km/h, but at full throttle I've only been able to manage about 850 km/h, though at low level.  I may have answered my own question there, but given that the stats don't specify whether the top speed mentioned is at sea level or altitude, does anyone have any more reliable stats?  Either way, many thanks to Eric for his great work.  What a corker!

ptg, if you have 4.11.1 try latest patch 1.27, 20% fuel and empty loadout. then see if you can reach that speed

P/S: Pete, this plane isn't suppose to be stable. It's a Russian . .
There may be a little Russian in my blood then eh, need to ask mum just what she was doing as a girl.


Anyway Eric, the fix you made to 1.27 has done the trick to the stability issue, thank you so very much for taking the time to look at it, I really appreciate it.

Before the change the aircraft just zoomed forward and kind of toppled over and into the ground, I know I am a shit jet jockey, but I did not even think I could be quite so bad eh.

I really should stick to flying the Magister.

Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

and was is with the  Vertical flymod ?

can you fix it ?  ???

SAS~S3, I have 4.10.1 + DBW1.7.  I'll try a 20% fuel loadout + empty but it will be a quick dash as this bird has short legs. I have run out of fuel before as I just keep flying around in this thing; landing on carriers, going around, touch and goes - great fun!  Good job the ejector seat works though as I lose track of how much fuel I have as I'm buzzing around.  Also good job it's only a sim lol!

I can't understand what you're trying to say here, sorry.

He means did you fix it so Deploy Refuel Device work the VTOL in DBW. He's running DBW and that key will not work for making the VTOL work. Must be the coding.

correct and sorry for my english

do you need my Config ?

[S3231541]

Guys that use DBW or 4.10.1 can use version 1.25, which is also on first post that retaining control key "Deploy tail hook" for VTOL mode. The only difference between 1.27 and 1.25 is the tail hook (3d and function) that's all. 

I've made correction on first post. The VTOL mode will get its own dedicated key in the next SAS Engine mod for 4.12.1 and hopefully new DBW.

As I said before... who needs a tail hook to land on a carrier.   This bird will touch down smooth as silk and then just lock in the chocks.

Means of support and development for 4101 will be?

[S3231541]

You'll get new features with newer game version, that's the unspeak rule. Besides, there's nothing wrong with current 1.25 for 4.10.1, I'll fix major bugs, if there's any.

And guys, please stop with the rhetorical style questions. If you want something, please state it clearly. Thanks.
