Legacy Hornet Flight Model
-
I agree - the Jane’s one has a really good avionics model…but dated. And they used the same flight model that they used for their F-15 - which from what I’ve heard is a reall good F-15 flight model…but it’s supposed to be a Super Hornet.
Before I spot BMS, I had attempted several times to find modernized version of Jane’s F15, because it was the last good sim I had flown before leaving that apart for a long time. As far as I remember, and as much as I can imagine , flying this F15 was the same deeply true feeling I have with the F16 model in BMS. The 15 model feeling in BMS is light years away from it - but I can live with it, it’s not supposed to be good.
Can’t resist to finish my off-topic with a tribute to the work on the atmosphere.
PS: forgot Lock On… but well… didn’t go far with it… And also I may give too much credit to Jane’s FM, been long time and BMS F16 has become second nature, so I may judge the BMS F15 FM a bit unfairly.
-
I had a thought about other aircraft and BMS. Perhaps one could load each aircraft they fly for that flight, with all the FM and avionics for that specific jet, rather than trying to load every one of them all at once. I’m sure the devs may have already thought of that, but don’t know if it is doable or not. Just a thought.

Iirc there is a setting in the configuration that says fly f-16 only and another option also there is avionics configurator.
So a work towards what is talked here must be done. Maybe not finalized or structured perfectly, cause of the old code .sent from my mi5 using Tapatalk

Having looked at YouTube at DCS and there is to be honest nothing there for me over and above BMS - IMHO DCS is less (not wanting to start a flame war). Out of all the various things out there, a really good FA/18 model with Naval operations would mean I would part with serious cash; carrier ops would be something different and challenging.

Next iteration should see a better f18 flcs
But you will have to RTFM as this is quite different from the f16 , for instance in TEF half or full this is aoa commanded and TRIM is used to trim the AOA
AUto throttle is also cool but tricky to use

THAT’S THE ANSWER I was expecting
thanks a lot man!!!

Hey Mav,
You mentioned that the F-18 need some TLC before. Glad to hear she got some attention! Looking forward to your wok!

… You can also find a VSTOL model in BMS. But it is still an F-16 per say.
F4BMS will be an F-16 and F-18 sim the day F-18 avionics will be implemented like for the F-16.

I have never seen a f16 hovering ….
This is a f16 for avionics , not at all for flight model

Arty, I may have to hide with you but here’s my .02…I for one _like_the Viper avionics in the Hornet. While I wouldn’t mind a more “hornetized” cockpit switch-wise, and maybe more carrier op procedures in landing(such as Marshall) , I am having the best time ever in BMS doing a "cooperative " SEAD/DEAD campaign between VFA-113 and the 7th. I can hop from Viper to Hornet without relearning different avionics.
Not to ignore Spartan’s original concept-the differences in flight models are noticeable and a nice change of pace when I “switch 'pits”
It’s not “real”, but it sure is fun.(Don’t shoot, Stevie!) -
…BLASPHEMY!!!
