That was a really good outline review of this aircraft. Choosing the Mach loop for handling was a touch of genius. I hope we can see a more detailed review of this aircraft in the future as I believe others have mentioned that the GPS is not functional. A very well done from me.

Thanks very much Graham! I can’t take full credit though. It was actually a viewer request from a few weeks ago that I do a Mach Loop run. I thought this vid would be the perfect opportunity! I would love to review the aircraft more fully, but it’s always difficult to find the time for such an undertaking and fit it in around work, the rest of the content on the channel etc. It’s a tricky balance between depth and variety of content. I feel bad if I’ve mislead people regarding the GPS though, I should have checked that out more thoroughly myself, or at least been clearer that I had yet to try it. Thanks once again for stopping by the channel : )

I seem to be 5 months late to the party but love throwing my new MB-339 around. I had your vid on one screen and my view on the other screen following your start up procedure. But I was flying out of sunny Gibraltar, and then doing an imaginary low level loop around the Spanish mountains and wind turbines to the West. It was rather cool seeing both sceneries flashing past, hearing both engines, and your commentary all at the same time.
@IntotheBlueSimulations3 жыл бұрын
Haha, well “better late than never” Nick. Welcome to the club! The MB-339 is indeed great fun for throwing around in the mountains etc, IFE did a really nice job with it. Still one of the most “fun” jets to fly in the sim in my opinion. Sounds like fun! I’d imagine the weather in the Spanish mountains is somewhat more pleasant than the Welsh valleys haha. Happy flying! : )

I think they’re really aimed at different users. The fact that the DCS version is free is amazing! I’m sure you have a much deeper user experience with the aircraft in that sim as well. I think the MSFS version is designed much more to have a bit of fun whilst exploring the open world. Of course it would be nice if the MSFS version was free as well, but the developer has to earn a living somehow and Dino has done so much amazing freeware for the community in the past, that I’m happy to support him : ) For sure though, you can have an amazing and totally free simming experience with the DCS version!

Ie, relative to a high performance jet, the roll rate, high AOA behaviour etc was diminished. “G” was the wrong term, or at least too simplistic.

I think they offer very different things. I love DCS and I’m a massive VR fan! For me, low level in the Viggen takes some beating : P Agreed the flight model is far superior in most (if not all) DCS aircraft. MSFS is much better if you just want to “go for a jolly” / explore in my opinion though. I always end up feeling a bit “constrained” in DCS by the maps. Graphically I’d say MSFS is better, but only just. Performance-wise, DCS probably has the edge, until you start introducing large numbers of units. VR in the Viper, with that canopy, is pretty special though : )

@IntotheBlueSimulations2 жыл бұрын
Hi Parabuteo, The Hawk is one my overall favourite addon in MSFS! On “fun-factor”, I would say the two jets are about the same, maaaybe the MB339 even has the slight edge, but in pretty much every other department the Hawk wins out. It has better systems and flight modelling, better sounds, both the front and rear cockpit are modelled, weapons can be loaded (outside of the marketplace) etc. In terms of modelling and texturing, the two products are broadly on a par with one another. The Hawk isn’t perfect, but it is very very good. If you’re into the MB339, I expect you’ll love the Hawk - it’s certainly worth considering at any rate. This might help you get more of a feel for the product: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m6nCpWqjidqpkNU I hope that helps. All the best! : )

I couldn’t give you a complete answer to that right now I’m afraid. For sure, not “all” the systems are simulated, but I haven’t had a chance to test everything thoroughly yet. The developer themselves states that this is a “light” version of the aircraft, with the pro version probably coming out some time next year. With that admission, I don’t expect all the systems have been simulated fully. Most switches do seem to work, but it would be difficult to say how much is going on behind the scenes.

Sure, no worries. So if you want to assign a button to it on your controller; the control assignment is called “extend spoilers” / “retract spoilers” (I expect there is a “toggle” assignment as well).

With FSX, it was the L39. Could this be the successor for FS2020? I do hope so...
@IntotheBlueSimulations4 жыл бұрын
I never tried the L39 in FSX unfortunately, so can’t really comment. Obviously the two aircraft are quite similar in terms of characteristics though. I’ve flown the L39 in DCS. I would say the DCS L39 is a superior product, but again this version of the MB339 is only supposed to be a “light” version anyway. It’s a decent addon though, certainly good fun to fly : )
@ak4164 жыл бұрын
No, the Lotus Simulations L39 is far superior in nearly every aspect, especially the systems that they modeled. Maybe once Dino releases the "Pro" version, but for now don't buy the MB339 expecting all of the systems to work. It's a great addon and I've been having lots of fun with it, but at it's current state it doesn't hold a candle to the Lotus L39 imo.

“My” L39 was the DCS version. I definitely have a soft spot for it, it’s a great simulation of the aircraft! I don’t know how it compares with the Lotus version mind you. Yes, I may well do the same. I’m hoping maybe there will be a discounted upgrade price, that would be nice.

I have no experience with the Lotus L39, but that’s a very fair statement. The mod definitely isn’t study level, but neither does it claim to be. As you say, it’s just something to have a bit of fun in currently and for that, it’s great! : )

@IntotheBlueSimulations4 жыл бұрын
Thanks very much! : ) All settings are on default for the “High End” preset, running @ 1080p. I have AI traffic turned off as well. Seems to give pretty reasonable performance, 70 ish FPS on a good day, in the right area. I find performance can be very variable in the sim though. Frame rate never really goes below 40 FPS, but in some areas I get pretty bad stuttering. Seems to vary from update to update.

Are you using a VR headset? And if so, which one? If not, which one would you recommend?
@IntotheBlueSimulations4 жыл бұрын
Im using a device called TrackIR in this vid. It’s not VR, but just monitors your head movement and inputs it into game. It’s great, but a little pricey. There are some freeware alternatives as well though (Freetrack, FaceTrackNoIR etc), so maybe check those out. I am a big VR fan though! It would be difficult to recommend one headset, as there are so many variables. Game type, computer specs, personal preference, head shape, whether you wear glasses or not etc. All come into play. Based off my own experience though. I own 2 currently. The Samsung Odyssey and the HP Reverb. I previously owned an Occulus Rift and have a HP Reverb G2 on order. The HP Reverb by far has the best visual quality of the headsets I’ve tried (hence why I’ve preordered the G2), but it does have a number of issues. My favourite all-rounder has been the Samsung Odyssey so far. Decent visually, very comfortable (with a couple of minor adaptations), good sound, reasonable price etc. Again, it would be very hard for me to give you a recommendation though I’m afraid. Some headsets suit some people better than others. One thing I would say though, visual clarity is definitely very important for simming, so I would strongly research / consider the HP Reverb G2 when it comes out. Hope that helps a little : )
@ComandanteJ4 жыл бұрын
Just to chime in about VR, if you only want the headset for sims, then any of the WMR will serve you well, the Reverb is probably the best one, IMO. Completely fine for static, head tracking uses, like Assetto Corsa, Eurotruck Sim, Elite: Dangerous, XPLANE... Beware of the resolution, though, MFS2020 is hard enough to run at 4K, and the Reverb has even slightly more resolution than that. VR at 30FPS is NOT fun. But if you want to do anything besides simming, money is no objection, and you dont mind having a semi-permanent setup, get an outside tracking headset, preferably the Valve Index (specially if you have enough grunt to run it at 144Hz), altough the HTC Cosmos Pro is not too bad, either (very similar to the HTC Vive Pro). Inside out tracking, like with the WMR devices, or whatever Oculus is doing (DONT get anything from Oculus), are fine for casual games but when you start to get a bit more involved, they just lack precision and lose track of the controllers in certain positions -something a well-configured outside tracking system wont do. Even my old Oculus Rift CV1 with just two cameras has better tracking than the Rift S. And my Index is miles better than that, still.
@IntotheBlueSimulations4 жыл бұрын

Agreed 100%. By all means tone down the graphics at lower graphics settings to cater for people with lower specs, but I can’t see any good reason to be doing the same at “High End” / “Ultra”. It’s always been the case with flight sims that the software is generally ahead of the hardware on release, it’s normal. I’m really looking forward to VR, but I’m a little concerned at what they’re going to do to the game to get it working.
