Title: Mig21bis AoA discrepancy between Tacview and cockpit gauge
Post by: blokovchan on June 18, 2018, 01:00:57 PM
Hello,
Is it a bug, or is something that I missed? There is discrepancy between angle of attack shown on cockpit gauge and Tacview analyzer. E.g.: at landing and flare I have on cockpit gauge AoA about 20°, but Taciew shows AoA from 4 to 6°....

DCS version: 2.5 stable...

Guys from ED forums are thinking, that this is tacview problem...

It is possible to notice a difference between the cockpit AoA gauge and the AoA displayed in Tacview if the angle of incidence is not zero (the angle between the wings and the longitudinal axis).

This is something I am improving over time by exporting cockpit instruments instead of calculating by hand the AoA. But it takes time because each aircraft in DCS World is a special case…
