Ok is it just me or has HT added a few more things in 1.08 and the patches than he has told us? Today I was cruising around in my p-51 and I see a low spit. I dive in from about 3k above him and as I track him in my sights (not even blacking out) and my freaking wing rips off!!!
Now I have been flying the stang for quite a while now and I would like to think i know its performance and capabilities, but in the last couple days I have ripped its wings off about 6-8 times. It took me a whole tour to do that with a 1.07 p-51.
Anyways this isnt a whine or anything I was just curious if any of you guys noticed that same thing?

i just think you need to drink some beer.

I haven't noticed a problem with ripping the wings off. Of course, I rarely do that anyway, 'cause I'm not a hamfisted dweeb! :p

i think that might be a pony bug...i've done it just flying flat and level. no NME's in sight and "WHAM!" my wings are gone. i've also had a problem where i was flying and then out of no where i was in the tower...no kill was awarded to anyone...just a "you have been killed"

I've never ripped wings in anything in 2 years..Must be new.. :)

Be gentle with your toys coop.
:D
Oh, and do keep it up ;)
-
I rip wings about once a tour :-D

I think Coop had hold of the wrong joy stick. :)

ROFL curly :D
Have you tried recalibrated your joystick? Coop? sometimes the fm seems a little off after major updates until I do that then everthing seems fine, I don't know if it actually helps or not it might all be pyschosomatic/in my head /mumbo jumbo nonsense but it wouldn't hurt to try. :D

Let me start by thanking you guys for turning this VERY serious topic into a self fulfillmet one.....hehe ;)
ANYWAYS---Yeah now that I think about it I rip my wings off probally less then once a tour(in a p51), Several times in BUFFS when I get stuck in dives or 262s I like breaking those wings too :) I think I got confused b/c i usually am going down without any wings/tail. Who knows Im wierd like that.
Curly as for the wrong stick. I got one word for ya- ambidextrous :D :D :D

Pony seems different...climbout?
I have learned to just adapt..still kills the enemy so thats a good thing :)
Wings rippin off just doesn't happen...at least since HT fixed it a long while back.
-
I have the wings O paper happen to me every time I fly the P-51D and not one time with the P-51B. There is a bug. There is no difference in the wing of a D or B. Let's get it fixed please.

The P51-D ripping wings syndrome is new for 108.
I don't remember the last time I ripped my wings off in the 51 up till just the other day. This I accomplished during a high speed break, to bleed E, prior to landing.
Happened unexpectedly as hell!
oops..... :eek:
-
Definitely something fishy going on...
I have lost the wings several times this tour, none at all last tour.
Recently I have lost wings at least twice AFTER a high speed dive, gentle pull out, start to climb away and then crack! Bye, bye wings. No stress noise, no pings, just wings gone...

I have been having the same problem in the D9 and A5. I've had it happen in level flight;no sound at all, just wing gone and on fire.

I too was quite surprised at how easy the wings came off.
I dove in, backed the throttle off, and at 430 mph, I eased back on the stick to blast the hell out of the guy I was attacking...Boom!!! The wings came off and I darted!
What the hell, I had done that at least a hundred times at 450 with NO Problem.
I wonder if lag has anything to do with it.
