Are slats shy ? - Page 7

Slat operation (or lack of early enough operation) has been snagged with the devs a while a go. That find in the FM probably explains why we are seeing what we are.

I made an offline test with an E4 today (long time I did not hve tried) and the slats seems to function on that model. I was able to turn 360 with the slats opened.

The E4 is also much easier to handle in high G moves. It might be that the last patch has introduced some significant changes.

Varra in what plane's FM did you found those lines of Codes ?

"Hand off the throttle, select FLUG on the undercarriage selector, The mechanical indicators motor up very quickly, and you feel and hear a "clonk, clonk" as the gear comes home. A quick look at the wings, and you can see that the slats - fully out - are starting to creep in as the airspeed increases and the angle of attack is reduced"

'Flying the Bf109' - by Mark Hanna, "Fighters, the Best of Flight Journal:, Summer 2001.

From all I've read, I believe that the slats on the 109E should be free to move through intermediate positions, just like its currently modelled in IL-2.

The ONLY references I've ever heard to slats "banging in and out" involve either hard maneuvering of the aircraft (thus rapidly transitioning through AoA) or getting in the slipstream of a large bomber (also large AoA transitions).

Gentle movements of the stick in a turn, or holding pitch constant whilst increasing airspeed (thus slowly decreasing AoA) should have the slats moving/creeping in and out.
