vLSO Beta release
SpazSinbad:
Just to add another graphic to fsxnp explanation. The PDF url no longer works - perhaps the
PDF can be found elsewhere:
RHE-NAV-90-TR-1 | OUTER-LOOP CONTROL FACTORS FOR CARRIER AIRCRAFT by Robert K. Heffley
http://robertheffleyengineering.com/docs/CV_environ/RHE_NAV_90_TR_1.pdf
Other excerpts from this PDF are available on this forum here:
CarrierLanding+LSOstuff only RHE_NAV_90_TR_1.pdf (.3Mb) - all the very long URL must be cut/pasted or otherwise find the thread with this info.

Sadly this doc not available there now. I dunno.

--- Quote from: fsxnavypilot on February 25, 2012, 05:57:36 pm ---Yes, that's right. Different aircraft have different Hook-to-Eye distances, so the glideslope must be adjusted for each H/E. In real life the LSO uses IFLOLS lens roll axis to compensate for that. The roll angle is increased when changing from an aircraft with a small H/E to an aircraft with a larger H/E. In FSX we have the glideslope, which is hardcoded and set for the Hornet. That's why you have to fly a little low to catch #3 wire in the Goshawk.

Hello,
I wonder what is the most realistic "Locus.GS" to put in the .ini for glideslope with a F/A-18E of VRS. Original, Nugget, ... ?
Thanks for your help.
SUBS17:
Just tested 0.5 with SFCARRIERS2.5 and found the LSO did not work.
syn:
I was blaming the H-E distance as the main cause of not getting OKs at all, but actually it seems it had nothing to do with it. I just realized that I was getting (OK)s with the T-45 for late ball calls (manual ball call enabled) as I was rolling wings level at about .6NM. If I lengthen my groove to .75-.8NM I get OKs as well with Dino's T-45.
However this results in longer than desirable groove times (~25 sec while CV NATOPS and CQ instructions say 15-18 ideally), doesn't it?

Range Check Error:
Re: vLSO Beta release « Reply #206 on: February 06, 2012, 06:19:29 PM »
Every once in a while, I am seeing an error box pop up: vLSO 0.4b Range Check error.
vLSO: 05b Still see the Range Check error... as I reported on 2/6. Any idea what is causing this ?
