Buzzz's new Mirage 2000

Any news with the new Mirage model?
-
I’m no Mirage expert but I don’t recall delta wings having flaps, will that be fixed for final release (if it is a bug at all)?
The model looks insane, can’t wait to give it a go on the new pc i’m gonna build!
-
The Mirage uses Elevons which is a combination of Ailerons and flaps. They have a pair in each wing, the inner and outer elevons. So it’s not a bug, don’t worry

Hi all,
Those pics amazing, WoW!
Thanks
2012+++ I feel it, I can feel it, we are going to rock the house! :razz:
So many goodies on the download list, just waiting yipppeeeeee!
Thanks Again,
Long Live F4!

Just trying to be constructive here so please don’t take this the wrong way.
It’s common knowledge that delta wings don’t use flaps. It’s also quite logical and straightforward 'cause if they were using flaps, then the airplane would pitch down, and without another set of control surfaces to keep the nose up (as it happens in any non delta wing config), it would crash into the runway.
I know for a fact the Mirage III didn’t have any flaps, and the EF-2000 doesn’t use flaps either.
I haven’t seen any pictures of a Mirage-2000 taking off with flaps down either -
Unfortunately, this is due to the FLCS code that is inherited from F-16 logic. I will try to find a work-around.

some thoughts to share…
-
drop down TEF - AFAIK when hydro power down, it drops. when power up it resumes neutral position.
-
to simulate this with existing switch/DOF on 3d model, you can use nesting DOF/Xswitch.
one Xswitch-5(canopy) contains all TEF parts as XDOF30,
when canopy open, the TEF switches to this Xswitch on and drop down to fixed angle.one Xswitch-5(canopy) cantains TEFs and all its normal XDOF/differential ailerons.
when canopy close, switch to this Xswitch, and act as normal TEF/ailerons. -

IMHO, it’s simpler and more realistic to link it to the RPM DOF : DOF 48
I have to find a way. -

I have to find a way.i know the way, but need exe edit of course…
is the FLAPS used for landing though ?
-
From what I’ve read, on the Mirage, no.
-
On a pure Delta wing such as M2K, it is not possible to use elevons as flaps…, so elevon/flaps are neutral as soon as hydrolic system has reach its nominal pressure.And, for M2k, when gear is down, slats are UP, whatever the AoA is (hardcoded in FLCS)
-
I think I have a solution for at least one part of the problem.

I have been flying your Mirage a lot lately and i really love it! Great FM, great cockpit and model! But, theres an issue with the autopilot. Sometimes when disengaged, I cant turn it on again (the switches light up but it doesnt take control of the a/c). Bug or feature?
-
The autopilot in the Mirage works as in the F-16. You have to respect certain flight parameters for the autopilot to work correctly.
In addition, even if the heading autopilot is selected, if the ATT/ALT autopilot is off, there is no autopilot. -

Seems to be related to flying 35k+ feet. Sorry about thinking it was a bug, I guess I mostly only fly that high when flying the Mirage…

… but how was this issue solved in the Mirage 2000D/N?
-
I will solve it the same way as for the mono-seat. I’m just waiting for a feedback from MavJP.

Dang you fly high. Not certain on the AP requirements, but at that altitude your AoA might not be shallow enough? And of course, if you increase speed to adjust for that you probably get too close to Mach 1 to use AP. Just a thought
-
May I ask if the new Mirage 2000 is relished? Or you are talking about the existing Mirage model in BMS?
Thank you
-
Both new single-seater and BMS current dual-seater models are affected.
