Just a few remarks about new G_Limits

1. Few RL data for USA planes, I think that nobody can argue that these were not well made and engineered.
F4U



P51D


P-47N


As you can see RL limitations are tight, pilot have to use his head too during piloting, not a muscles only. This might explain you why some of the pilots in guncam videos don't do things you see from virtual pilots.

2. G_Limits are not fixed, if plane is in 8/12 category that doesn't mean that it will get damaged every time you exceed 8G or that it will broke when 12G's are exceeded. If you are lucky you can pull 13G's and get away with it but everything above 8G is lottery. If you are carrying bombs limits are much tighter and you should be very careful in maneuvers.

3. Don't expect this to be 100% accurate in every way, that's not possible to achieve in PC simulation with 200+ planes. Some generalizations are necessary but our opinion is that this feature is big step forward in making the sim more realistic.

4. Readout in yellow will not be part of the game, that's just for demo purpose, just in case if somebody expected to see this during playing.
