    Default GLOC How does it work

    I know it is different for other planes but it shouldnt be. At what point does someone lose control of their aircraft, What G? I cant seem to get my head around this

    Thanks

    Good question, but what has been helping is maxing out the pilote g force....

    I think how it works is if you pull high G turns your stamina goes down and once it reaches zero you lose control. Maybe Gaijin did something so if you are in a turnfighter you lose your stamina slower than an energy fighter.

    What I'm saying is, maybe they messed up and did it different on all planes on purpose. A 12G turn in a Bf-109 maybe decreases 10% stamina per second but it may decrease 5% in a Zero because it is a turn fighter. Edit: And if it is like that, isn't this messed up??

    G-LOC-requires an explanation

    GLOC=Gravity induced loss of consciousness. That is to say, that the maneuver has drained all blood from the brain,to lower body,and You are now unconscious. There are many factors that gaijin has tried to implement to show the various things that cause this.

    HighG maneuvers. I can out-turn,stamina wise,ANY plane in the game w/a P51 pilot whom is equipped with full stamina,and the "Puff' pants,or anti-G. These squeeze Your legs when under High G's,which helps slow the flow of blood downward. Physiologically speaking, this keeps more oxygenated blood in Your dome.

    Inversion-Put ur brain below ur ass and gravity will put ALL the blood there...Yes,this can make You pass out. Not a true "GLoc' but same idea.

    simply put. Just because You're in a turn fighter,doesn't mean Your stamina doesn't play a HUGE part.Also, "Pre-loading' the airframe helps negate a bit of the effect. Instead of "twitch-fast' turning in a Spitty we'll say, Make a outboard turn of 5 degrees or so FIRST. This not only pre-loads the airframe,but the body. I've only LOC'd 4x so far,and all of them were my own damn fault not paying attention. If You're repeatedly G-Loccing, Your flight style is "brawler' when it should be "dancer'.

    Thanks for the reply, so what you are saying is if you are a turn fighter, then make a small turn then apply more rudder and elevator further into the turn?

    sort of..say-

    You're following a plane,and He makes a sharp starboard turn. He will out-turn You at this speed/angle unless You overload the plane/pilot,possible GLOC.or....

    You turn 5deg PORT first,dip Your starboard wing,and "wing-over' into the starboard turn. You've pre-loaded the airframe with this,making Your wings "Flex' and grab the air more efficiently. 2-You have negated approx. 5sec of the GLOC stamina issue,as Your blood is now going first one way *Port* then the other *Starboard*. It takes practice,but helps You in 3 ways,2 of which are above..the third?

    Your maneuver just made You "Spiral' attack,like a hawk does.Your plane will pirouette on its Inboard wing,turning incredibly tight and controlled,with a break in the GLOC issue. It will come on VERY fast,hard when it does,but You'll be in a tight enough turn to stay with/end te fight,or maneuver for position again,still on the enemies 6!

    Good luck
