Post Stall issues Thread - Vector Thrust

i've been playing this for almost a month now and one problem seems to persist... i see vids of people going into post stall with planes that have TVC but when i try it it never works. the controls stop working when i stall even on TVC planes, anybody know what's going on?

if you look closely there'll be a AoA indicator on top of the altitude indicator, that's disabling the "limiter" allowing you plane to do insane maneuvers like like having a tonne of reaction wheel in KSP.

To do that just press the U key on the keyboard or the up D-pad(default setting), go out there and do some insane maneuvers, do take note keep an eye on your altitude because you're essentially a a brick with a TVC engine on it.

alright thanks a lot, for a second i thought i was just crazy lol.

Remember you have to use the brake to really turn on a dime. Also remember it will be hard to evade missiles while doing certain maneuvers. Try turning while holding afterburner + brake

Man, since I use a HOTAS setup, I didn't realize until just now that it's possible to go AoA mode while accelerating.

Then what did you bind the airbrake to?

Since there's no real engine controls... throttle forward = accelerate/throttle back = brake. Can't really do both at once given how the controller is designed...

seems rather fun to use but one other thing evades me, i heard there was a cockpit view for the F-16 and a few addon planes i have. i try to go to the view but cockpit view acts like an external fly-by view instead.

Curious. Doing so on my end just overwrites the brake input and behaves under normal acceleration rules. Is this a non-keyboard thing?

Cockpit view support was ditched in the last moment because there's seemingly unfixable issue that prevents cockpit textures from showing up. Or so if I recall.
