The plane looks perfect. However, I'm having trouble with it's mdl files. BOTH are corrupt! The plane goes bizerk at 200kts and won't take off at all. Either it's just me or there is going to be a fix within a few days.

it eats up almost NO FPS count, its very friendly. You can't take off because you aren't using the afterburners, also if they are corrupt, you need to redownload, and make sure you use swing wings at different speeds.

Hi again Blade, I have the same problem, the elevators start to go beserk above 200kts. I tried to download the pdf file in case I was doing something wrong but the dl has crashed twice on me.

I'm not complaining at all, this looks great and I am sure this is only a minor glitch, but am wondering if I download this again, will it fix it? It takes about 40 mins on my lowly 56k connection.

Yea I saw, but it adds 737 sounds which suck. Also to everyone that has a problem, it takes a while to learn how to fly the Bone, its complex in the way it flies. You need to learn when to use the wing posistions for your altitude and speed, and how to control it, just takes practice.

Thanks for trying Blade, but I've flown hundreds of aircraft in every fs version, and this B-1 is COMPLETELY uncontrollable at all speeds. It's not an overspeed, or stall problem. The B-1 is on takeoff roll when it refuses to rotate with full flaps; then at 150 kts the elevators violently flale about. If you slew the plane into the air it begins to girate like a fly avoiding getting swatted. I have had this problem with other aircraft, but usually it only occurs at very high speeds (fs2000 starfighters).

Hi Iceman,

What type of control device are you using?

i know what you mean iceman, and i'm glad i've found someone with the same prob. while i was betatesting this aircraft, i already had this problem. i hoped they would fix it, but it seems they don't. i still have this problem, even with the new version.

the only thing i know u can do about it, is putting of your force feedback on your joystick. i don't know what kind of control device you have, but it works with my MS sidewinder joystick. i know, without FF it's not easy and fun to fly it, but if there is no other solution...

Yup, those that are experiencing problems with take off, it is most likely that you have a Force Feedback J/S. Turn off all Force Feedback in the settings and this should solve your problems untill the patch is released at the weekend.

Great job I3D.

BTW, has anyone experienced problems with Active Camera and this B-1B? I can't pan in VC mode or activate the external mode at all, I checked it with a few other planes and it works fine with them ???

Active Cam seems fine now, must have been a temp problem Grin

Here's an update for the FFB ppl. I did some adjustments in the flight modeling and Trev has told me some good news! It works the aircraft can fly.

I really don't understand why MS implemented FFB this way.
