It takes a whole toejamload of a lot of time and work to go back and fix things- especially when you are attempting to emulate flight on a freaking 1Ghz computer.
You could say it in a less agressive way, but in this I have to agree with you ,SW. It takes time. It takes work,too. And they got their heads and work focused in other areas of the game.
However one thing is true, here, Seawulfe. And I want you to read this in a pure objective way, I don't want to flame anything. I just try to be objective.
Pyro ,or HT, or anyone at HTC could chime in this thread, or the 190 speed thread (which has been one of the most civil discussions I recall in this forum regarding a german plane), and just say "We will look into it,when we've got time in the future"...or "we think our sources are more trustable, and AH's 190A5 speed will stay that way"...or "nice info but we need more data"...
I mean...to say "yes" , "no"...or "not enough data"...doesn't take that much time. I mean, hey even HT entering one of his code-answers (0 or 1 ,heheh
) would be enough to know if HTC thinks the data presented is valid and worth discussing.
You would say that HTC guys have more things to do than to answer into the boards. I agree. But this topics have been around for quite some time now, and to post a short answer is not asking for much, I think. They haven't done it so far. No problem from my side, but is clear some people do have that problem
.
I don't know, SW, the thing is that HTC has kept silence on the matter...that is a fact. The reasons of that silence I don't truly understand but is their priviledge and option to answer the questions and topics brought up in this forum, or not.
I only say that it would be better (IMHO) if we had some kind of...er..."official standpoint" made by ,say, pyro, on the matters we've discussed
. That would finish many debates wich have been discussed for literally, ages, in the forums ,and would clear many people's doubts
.
For instance... HoHun and Naudet are still disagreeing about the true power output of AH's 190D9...I won't think is that difficult for Pyro to enter one of those trheads and clear up which the true output is in AH,and so end the months-long debate for once at all
.
See, I don't think HTC has an anti-LW agenda. As I said in a previous post I do think the 190A5's speed is in the fixlist for Pyro and that will be fixed in the future.
In contrast, I don't think the rollrate is in that list....and
rightly so because -even when I think is too low in AH- the true roll rate at 50lbs stick force is not well documented and thus the only chart we have is the NACA one. Wrong or not, is the only official chart with enough information to do a model, so is the one used.
I just say, that it won't be hard for Pyro or HT to enter the A5's discussion and write "1" and then enter into this one and write "0"
. That would end many debates about their point of view, don't you think?
.
P.S. Ok, I know there would be endless debate about the why of a "yes", or why of a "no"...but at least noone will say that HTC has kept a silence on the matter anymore
