This is very, very strange and surprises me a lot, considering that the map was made by Orbx, one of the best scenery developers for FSX then and now for MSFS who is known for his love of detail which is unsurpassed in quality and especially quantity! Weird!

Love it. Awesome video concept!

I got my ffbeast and to be honest I am still struggling with all the settings, will you do a tutorial at some point? Thank you

how did you get the fuel dump?

You’re going to love the Cold War scene with force feedback man! Would love to see you try the mig 21

love the f-4 nice video, you really should check it out more C:

Good work! I'm glad at least one developer is including Force Feedback 👍

Do you still fly in VR from time to time?

I have read about the ED and razbam conflict on forums. Many argue that you shouldn’t buy any razbam module as the situation looks like now as there is no support, broken things and no development. What do you who owns the modules say?

Thanks thanks thanks for this video!!! ❤❤❤ great review!

Amazing video. Can you tell me how much torque you are using for the Hornet. FFBeast can do 35Nm, but the wait time is probably very long. There is another supplier, working with FFBeast, providing a base with 10 Nm. Do you think that would be enough for the Hornet, and to really get the feeling that you are flying a real jet, like you described in your video?

They used to disable ROLL augmentation because it made it twitchy in situations where precision was needed, not because of some adverse yaw stuff you said.

What kind of 5 cm extension do you use?

What curves did you set for F-4?

Now I'm convinced that I will buy the DIY package for the FFBeast 😂

You have to tell Jester to think about baseball! Otherwise invest in some numbing cream or something.

The tiny smile face in the back gets me everytime

Are those scooter motors?

G940 owner and I agree I have no idea how you could fly the F-4E without FFB. I do hope more FFB sticks start to show up sometime here like back in the day because it's the absolute best way to enjoy these older birds.

My father flew the F-4 from 1975-77. They did in fact call it "The Pig". After his time in the F-5 and F-104, the F-4 was as you say, lethargic. At this point in the F-4's release time line, few have used the phrase "Excess Thrust" when referring to the F-4. Being familiar with the J79 coming from the F-104, my father said of the F-4's acceleration, "The faster you go the better it gets". Turbojets LIKE air so one needs speed to create speed. This is why getting slow in the turbojet is never a good idea. The turbojet is faster than the turbofan from 400-800kts. Excellent video Command T. If you want some good reading at FL390 and M0.85, SCREAM OF EAGLES is the very best book on how to fly and fight in the F-4. This book is the GOLD Standard. It tells us about the creation of TOP GUN and specifically, fighting the MIGs 17/21 and 19. The RULE: Enter the fight at no less than 550 kts. When speed bleeds to 350 kts, extend 2-3 miles, rebuild your energy, and pitch back into the fight with no less than 550 kts. And, fly "The Egg", Boom n Zoom tactics using pure vertical. SCREAM OF EAGLE FOR THE WIN. Thanks for the video. Very much looking forward to Phantom content from a pilot's perspective. Cheers.

I was curious how this one would feel with the force feedback. I'm sure I'll be jealous as usual. It's been a bit of a bummer with my new computer, since I guess my new rig has the perfect combination of things to make it crash constantly on multi-threading. I think I've found the perfect combination of settings to use with the old single-thread .exe but it's definitely putting a damper on the new computer joy. Glad to see there's another person like me who wasn't really a huge F-4 fan (I thought it was cool as a kid, but that was most planes) and got it almost more to support Heatblur's efforts than it was to fly the thing. That said, I've definitely enjoyed the challenge of the F-4 now. The landings have been a beast for me too. I've found myself really missing having the flight path indicator that I've become so used to, since I feel like I'm pretty much riding a stall the entire way down. I've managed to smash the gear on a handful of Phantoms now.

"Eject! Eject!" "Goddamn it, Jester!" :D :D :D

It's absolutely nothing like how a real helicopter feels. Suggest you do an intro flight to see for yourself.

@CommandT Can I ask you what Chair you use? I am trying to find a decent chair for a longer stick setup between my legs like you have..

Jester is hilarious

14:40 When Jester ejected screaming at top of his lungs and your like OMG Jester what the hell?!!

"AOA, what a stupid instrument. If you don't know what your angle of attack is, you shouldn't be flying." - Chuck Yeager. Of course, for sim flyers, we don't get the feedback you get IRL.

My FFB fanaticism is over 9000. IIRC there is an option to disable jester premature ejection in the special options available from the main menu ... ?

Great video, as always. Can confirm the way they did things without FFB is totally whack, and I can't even bring myself to fly the module anymore because of it😥 Gave me an excuse to put my name down for a VPForce Rhino, though! I'd have gone with FFBeast, but my current setup has everything mounted to a chair I can wheel in and out, and the Rhino base should work with that nicely.

That was a wonderful airshow you put on. If I hadn't already bought this module, I probably would after watching your lovely flying. Can't wait until my number comes up on the FFB waiting list! I agree that it really makes you work if you want a 'smooth' landing.

I have my FFbeast about to ship and will be using it with the F18 alot and also the Apache and F4.

How does your game look so hd wtffff

I've been waiting for this single video as this was the deciding factor on if I decided to build this stick or not. I'm beyond ecstatic to finally see it being tested with FFB and I know my answer has been made!

I am on the way to build my FFBeast. I'll receive the frames in a couple of days. It's your F18 stick connect to the FFBeast controller board or by the Trust master board? Thanks for your videos!

Could o share the profile effects for F4? I also got the FFBeast and I have been trying to set the profile, but all help is welcome.

Just watching your stick movements, it's something I simply can't do with a spring loaded stick. Looks so natural

Regarding the out spin aileron flattening the spin, maybe it could be a code issue. I remember in LOMAC recovering from upright spin could be achieved with slamming the inboard engine only in afterburner, while in inverted spin you would have to put outboard engine at full thrust to recover. Hilarious.

I have the vkb Gladiator plus! I'm very happy with how well it works. My dad is a helicopter pilot (bell 47, 206, a lot of time in the as350, a tiny bit of uh1 time, and now some time in a uh60) and I put him in the huey in vr to see how well he would do...let's just say he has a much better time in the real thing😂 to be fair I also don't have pedals yet so that could've thrown him off.

Jester knows how to make his pilot comfortable : convertible Phantom for the win. Thank you for this flight masterclass !

Well you can finesse a CF-18, but you do risk walking over the trailing link gear with any lateral movement in real life and breaking the gear and aircraft. It’s just not worth the risk to finesse it. Fantastic video on the Heatblur Phantom and the force feedback stick.

Hear you on the landings, very uncivilised chsracteristics! Can you share your FfBeast profile for the F-4?

i would like to see a comercial version of the NOR...with a certain number of full fidelity aircraft...with all it armament...including nuclear ordenance...and open source to allow the users community to create content...some day fusion full aviation simulation with full ground combat simulation...a species of Arma...i think im dreaming too quickly...but if it possible...it would beat DCS and Arma both together

And it sticks the landing 😂

AWESOME STUFF!

Can I download the mission file?

Fantastic, I really enjoyed the overlays with the tac map/track and captions informing of actions taken and key words defined. Thank you for the time spent putting this together

I too really liked my sidewinder two FF, but about a year ago it stopped working with xPlane and MsFS, even with a licensed paid for version of FSForce. It just shuddered in a steady rythm, no matter what adjustments I made. So I bought a Rhino FF, and it's in a different class alltogether. Much more force and very detailed feedback. ruclips.net/video/WynUFVw73QA/видео.html

How much does it impact performance?

Screw you

F5 is my go to in DCS... I need this stick lol
