I just tried out spitfire, the artificial horizon on spitfire sometimes malfunctions. I dunno if it's a bug or a feature...

An hour ago on ATAG, my plane just vanished and the camera was left hanging in the air.

Devs you gave blue 100 octane. Now, please! Correct this 109 inaccurate stall behaviour.

Is well know from literature that 109 had gentle stall and once departed it was easy to recover.

Now, try to come out of a stall in CloD. And is very easy to spin...

I try to watch my air speed to avoid such a problem. The only stalls I have had, were intentional for testing....you have to apply opposite rudder right away at first sign of a spin

when exiting game, launcher is still running in background have to kill process.
Also no friction on aircraft in air or on ground wheels.

If you make a lot of violent maneuvers the gyroscopes get messed up and the instrument displays wrong data. It's normal and it happens on all aircraft.

If you fly straight and level for a while you will see that it returns to center after a while

This is not a patch bug, it happened with previous versions too. It's got something to do with the way the despawn scripts are handled on the server.

If you take off and then touch your wheels on the ground, the script thinks you landed and after a minute or so it will despawn your aircraft.

The trick is to get sufficient speed on your take-off roll and then smoothly but firmly lift-off. In other words, try to avoid bouncing up and down during your take-off.

Hope it helps

Bliss posted a while back that it's actually due to your plane spawning slightly off the ground, falling down and the game registering that as a landing.
So nothing we do affects it, and there's no way to see if a player is inactive to trigger the despawn in another way.
