Blackout - Abel6669 - 14.07.2009

ok, im flying around in my nice shiny rocket interceptor, and i black out....im flying level, so is this just because im going like 800km/h or is it something else???
the BI-6 to be exact, the one with twin RAMJETS

Was there a loud "Thunk!" preceding the blackout? Was it instantaneous as opposed to gradual? If this is the case, you are dead.


- Abel6669 - 14.07.2009

no i didnt die, as i still had very very minimal control of the craft. (i could reduce the throttle, which i didnt want to do Sad)


- Robert_Kavnik - 14.07.2009

I think that when you exceed about 700 km/h the plane starts going straight down and you blackout, I don't know why that happens, maybe due to lack of a face mask? Tongue

they didnt happen to implement a working facemask into the game did they. lol Tongue

thats actually a clever inclusion of a transonic reversal of control directions aerodynamic rule.

I WANT A FACEMASK Sad


- Gonzo - 14.07.2009

A Face mask isn't going to help you.

Above a certain speed, the angle of attack of the Bi-6s wing becomes so low it actually goes negative. This negative pitch pushes the nose downwards. In the cockpit, the pilots blood rushes into his brain causing what is known as a "Red out". The exact opposite to a "Black out" but it takes much longer to recover.

Any prolonged period in a red out means that the most help a face mask would provide is to make it easier to collect the pilot's teeth after the crash.

To get out of this situation... Watch your speed and slow down!

roll 180*

See, when you exceed a certain speed, the plane nose dives. Roll till you're upside down, and the plane will still nose dive, but instead that would mean that the craft climbs, and loses speed untill it is controlable again.


- Korrigan - 14.07.2009

Read page 15 of the "Aircraft guide.pdf" :
"Having the same basic airframe as the BI-1, the aircraft is prone to enter uncontrollable dives at speeds in excess of 800 km/h."

oooh ok Sad, is there a way to make it disappear with a mod, or just a setting tweat?? with a plane that maxes out at 1,020km/h, i would like to reach that speed, or closer to it lol.

EDIT: yeah, i know its pointless, but i would just like to max out a plane lol.


- Robert_Kavnik - 14.07.2009

The plane has about 45 rounds per gun, don't see what will you do with it. Tongue I like it as a stunt plane personally.


- Abel6669 - 14.07.2009

yeah, i suppose you are right. still would be cool to max it out Tongue
