S3 Series

The 23rd will take frame I. Will do some testing today and post rides/fields, etc asap.

(hope you guys have practiced some CV ops)

Thank you, Sir.

Here's what approach coverage would be with a 60 mile radius.

Thanks De!

Please post if you already have not which operations area you will be using for Frame 1.

Thanks 23rd!

JABO:
Would it be possible to have the S3 Arena enabled with the proper plane set and FM for Frame 1, and possibly a CV routine running with 30 mph of wind down the deck? Fuel Multipler - set at 0.75 would also be nice.

Jabo, why no F6F???????????????? Think the USN did deploy a few of these

Jabo,
I echo Dewolf's request--like it is already Friday!
When I try the .privatearena s3 and go to log on it shows "Arena is locked"

Salute!

What Gofly said.

And PLZ no new flight models on Saturday or Sunday.

Gums sends....

P.S. Nomads have voted to fly with the Stalkers, and Gofly is the Nomad rep/POC for the series.

Got it gumsy....plans out later.

Sorry about that I was on the road and couldnt access the arena.

Carrier group from Iwo Jima to Japan and back to practice on. 30 mph.

Tried the TBF-1C. Using full fuel load and torp. Used full flaps for take-off. Hold brakes and run it hot then use mil power for take-off.
Need to recalibrate my stick with the new FMs, very twitchy now. So please test your setup before coming into the arena. Use the ACE arena as it is the same FM. Do not use the MA arena as it is a different FM.

AI Problems:

1. in the TBF-1C the biggest AI problem is when you transfer command or are shotdown low to the water. Unfortunately it looks like you are stuck on the water as soon as you transfer command. Above 400 ft you are fine. It seems to be a glitch in the AI launching and will ask Dan to look at it. I may be doing something wrong but I tried various settings.

2. Once you transfer command you must run up your throttle. On my setup even though the throttle is set a maximum I had to pull it back and run it forward again to get the new plane up to speed.

3. AI will launch as soon as you go otr on the carrier. They then will take some time to form on you. Once they form select spread length and set it for 100+ ft. Set them too far away and you stand a good chance of loosing them.
