La-7 loops @ 110 ias?
« on: June 15, 2004, 11:00:49 AM »
with flaps over top .. no problem.

I did it at 125 ias first.. took it to 110 and didn't try to go slower.  still had control with airspeed below 75.

started level at test speed.. hit wep and took it over.

tests done 1k~3k.

bug or great performer?

spit9 vertical speed around 125 ias.. but hard to control perfect loop at top.. will flop to side.

Lol... Tilt.. you never get that slow, how do you know how it performs with a full tank at 110 mph?

Looks like some are learning just how much difference using flaps can make.

This is not a bug and can be cone in AH1. Therefore as far as differences go between games, there is none.

AH1 test @ 125 ias.. La7 goes over but flops at top.. can't do a pure loop.

@110 La7 doesnt go past vertical.

100% fuel..yada.. yada


test before you type.
