Dropping stuff inverted

[Minotaur]

Posting my comments for reference only.  Still probably Beta things, I am sure.

I can drop bombs and / or drop tanks while plane is inverted with no ill effects.  Negative or positive G's at the time of release have have no effect.

Bombs seem to vanish right away, but you can see the drop tanks tumbling down.

The plane should jerk and / or need a major trim adjustmet when 100 to 2000 lbms is dropped off it.

I just LOVE the effect when the drop tank hits the ground.  Better effect than bombs at this piont. It is fun to drop them on the runway when several planes have spawned at once.

No E loss or plane jerk while shooting.

I was doing testing yestarday (not related but found out a few other things)

when I was up to 38k (I was climbing to 40k) I fired off my guns to depleat my ammo to lose wieght. when I fired I started at a climb rate of 165 when I fired the streams went high so, I watched the gauges. my climb speed was trying to stay at 165 but my climb rate dropped as did my nose. so there is E loss (esspecialy the more you mash the trigger). as for it jerking the plane around I dont see this... take the p51d for example... now when a single infantry man fires his .50 it bucks and jerks but not uncontrolably. then you have 6 of these on teh stang.... BUT you have the equvilant mass of 500 men all 200+lbs holding the guns with special mounting.
