Same thing seems happened to me while fling p51d.

did you film it? I have my film of that fight, would be useful to see film of the encounter from both FEs as I suspect each player sees different things.

Pyro I lost a 262, Ki61, and I16 this way too. All three were non-vital part losses. Sadly I don't have any film but if it happens again I'll be sure to record.

Might be wise to contact Toyota and see if they can shed any light on this.

Might try a thin metal shim under flight controls. ;)

I had this happen at least twice, yesterday, Mar 12. I looked at the damage list and nothing critical was missing. I would have to say the propeller looked different, like its blade tips were broken off. I assumed this may have been a new damage feature.

Had same thing happen as posted in the other thread.  Took a oil hit in a jet from a 13mm sbd tail gun. plane shuttered and lost control of plane meaning no reaction from stick movements. Kind of like the "dont move controls rapidly" warning. Also in a CHOG i took an ail hit. again plane shuttered and lost control briefly. Another time in a jet i took gun dmg and the plane shuttered but i dont remember losing control or not that time. Though i think the losing control part sux the shutter whether accidental or not is a very cool effect especially with a ffb stick. Actually feels like something hit your plane. Figure the kinetic energy of 2 objects hitting each other at very hi velocities ought to rock the plane a bit.

Anyways I do not have film but i dont think it would help since all you would notice is the result of either crashing into the deck or us just not moving for a period of time. Would have to feel it for yourself imo.

Is it possible that some of you were on fire? because the fire I see now last .1 sec and dissappears.  After that the plane shakes and complete loss of control happens.  I'm taking a big FR when someone catches on fire also, anyone else seeing this?

I see a burst of flame and then little fireballs every few seconds.  I shot down a 51 and saw the same thing, except he was short a wing.  :D

after the new update, a couple of us have had something happen to our planes that never happened before. both were p38s.  don't know if this is a bug or a change in the game. Nothing in the readme about it. Have had either a slight collision or small hit damage and then there is a complete loss of control of all axis and the plane crashes. Looked at wings and tail section and no visible damage. Looked at damage list and no damage to plane listed.    :joystick:   but could not maneuver in any direction at all. controls frozen.

Had this happen to me today on a spit8

had a left cannon damaged

They stated in the readme that WW1 has a new "death spiral" when a pilot is killed.

Sounds to me like that "Death spiral" is being triggered at the first onset of any damage, maybe?

Not a spiral.  More like a slow roll into the ground.

edit: rather a half roll.

In a WW2 aircraft, maybe...

But it sounds like you lost all input, and the plane "flies on" like it does after you eject -- you can watch it slowly roll in.

I would say that if the new feature for WW1 was added, then all of a sudden "THIS" happens, perhaps one is causing the other (or they are related!).

Makes me think there's an association between "plane is dead/pilotless" and some mistake where the pilot is still in the cockpit wondering why the plane is doing this.
