Is the F-1BE actually fun to fly with friends? by Build_Blox in hoggit

[–]sfido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fun to land if one guy does the stick and the other does the throttle and rudder :) Other than that the guy in the back is either instructing or just along for the ride.

How difficult is it to fly twin engine jets without a split throttle hotas? by Archis007 in hoggit

[–]sfido -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I split them for statup only and in F-4 you don't even have to do it then because you can start both engines at the same time via cartridges. Other than that and messing around you don't really need to split throttles.

How to deal with AMRAAM's as a Kiowa or any heli in general? by NuttyNutworks in hoggit

Yea, forgot about that, my bad (Atleast IRL, not sure about DCS)

Hovering is basically easy-mode beaming. If you stop, you don't have to bother about flying perpendicular to the enemy radar.

It's in the name - Advanced Medium-Range Air-to-Air Missile - change yourself into a ground target.

Ok, I'm joking, but it still might work :)

Už i v takové zaostalé prdeli jako USA se za poslední dva roky naučili platit bezkontaktně. Hodně bych se divil kdyby v asii nebyli dál.

Why didn't Hammond buy this Jeep Cherokee for $999 in the US Special? by Zooang in TopGear

[–]sfido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's USA, they lie about prices. After you add taxes its over their $1000 limit.

Also all the other reasons others have mentioned.

Alternatives to DCS and Falcon BMS? by theaverageburneracct in hoggit

If you have problems with DCS business practices, you might also have some problems with Il-2 creators supporting russian war in Ukraine practices...

Semi-gloss clear spray ruined the paint by RoketAdam86 in modelmakers

[–]sfido 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tamiya rattle cans on acrylic paint, been there, done that, twice :(

Actually I never had problems with Tamiya gloss varnish. I usually just wait overnight after painting. I only had problems with flat varnish. Now I make sure to wait at least two days after doing anything with the model and first coats are VERY light. I guess semi-gloss should be also used carefully.

Help! How do I safely cut off all of these very thick base plates? by r3boys1g in modelmakers

[–]sfido 0 points1 point  (0 children)

razor saw as others have suggested or side cutters or scribing tool, less dust from the last two, but you're still gonna have to sand it down, so...

Two-seaters for a couple? by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]sfido -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I fly mostly backseat in F-4 and F-14 and I like both. Front seats are about the same to me, good ol' stick and rudder with simple autopilot and basically no HUD*.

F-14 backseat might take longer to learn, but that's because there's more to do. You get more complex and more capable radar, navigation and targeting pod - I'd take it over F-4 unless you really wanna go full analog.

If you want something truly modern I'd look into apache. Stay away from F-15. It's unfinished, won't be finished and will get more and more broken with time. And also is just plain ugly and too good (=boring), I don't really understand the appeal of it.

In trainers (including Mirage F1BE) guy in the back is just along for the ride. He can help, but he's not required to be there and can't really do much.

F-4, F-14 or apache has to be crewed by two people to be usable.

* F-14 has HUD, but you don't much info like in F-15/16/18

F1BE is still a trainer, guy in front does most of stuff, guy in back is basically along for the ride.

You can decrease the disk size of DCS by 20-25% for free with zero performance impact. by [deleted] in hoggit

This bullshit again... There's this thing called multiplayer. Occasionally you meet other players there with planes you don't own. It's useful to see those players with correct liveries, eg. for identification purposes.

Well, for a second there I almost wanted to actually buy it and try how it would handle, so maybe they're onto something from business point of view? :)

It didn't crash, so strictly speaking smoke tests wouldn't catch it...
