Negative G's
« on: February 25, 2009, 10:19:44 AM »
I attended Rolex's session last night and he(they) mentioned that you should never fire at a con when in negative G's.

I always knew this,  however, I really don't know why??

So why??

If I said "never" do it, I didn't mean to say that. I think it's more intuitive for people to hit their target at 1 or a little more than 1 G than it is in negative G loading. One of the easiest ways to avoid the guns of an opponent is to maneuver toward their negative G position. Why? Because it's very hard for them to hit you.

I've also heard, but don't think it's modeled in AH, that some guns had a tendency to jam while being fired under negative g-loading.
