- After spending some more time experimenting with the "auto-land" feature of the F1's autopilot, I thought it might be worth putting another video together demonstrating how it looks in poor weather.
Some lessons have been learned in the time since the first auto-landing video I uploaded.
Firstly, DCS navigation aids are not always reliable. Not every ILS station has glideslope guidance, for example (Syria has at least a couple of these, including Ramat David). VORs do not include DME equipment, although I believe there are some VORTACs which will provide distance measurement.
Secondly, there's some rather strange behavior in the autopilot. For example, when the F1 is landing with external stores and 50-60% internal fuel, there are some extreme pitch oscillations in the last ten seconds or so before touchdown. As another example, having the glideslope mode enabled when you are above the glideslope can produce an unrecoverable dive which seemed to include full nose forward trim.
So just treat everything as a work in progress and be ready to take manual control or find another approach to fly.
Thanks for watching!
thank u from France for sharing this video!
thank you for making this though i find its really hard to find any tutorials for the f1 on the ILS and other more rare features the plane has. Thank you for making this! DIdnt even know the mirage could do this!
when i select the autopilot button the plane ends up just flipping... i even tried autostarting and set everything up and still had the same issue. Is this a bug you are getting aswell recently?
I've had trouble pretty regularly with autopilot engagement over the last couple of patches. I haven't tried it this patch though, but I know they've been working on it.
Most helpful. Thank you.
Thanks for the video, you've got a new subscriber :)
Pitch oscillation!!! I experienced that a lot as you saw !! thxs for your vidéo again, like it a lot.
Took me by surprise the first time I experienced it. I suspect it's something to do with the center of gravity.
@@biggus3348 i think you really have to focus on the AOA and always anticipate every slight power you have to add or reduce, i think that the closer you are from the glide emetor the more you have to limite your AOA changes, and if you you go outside of the enveloppe...you're dead !!
