FSX F-18 Hornet Configuration Update

FSX default F/A-18 Hornet flies sharper and feels more believable with this configuration update, reworking weights, fuel tank volumes, engine parameters, flight dynamics, contact points, and virtual cockpit head position. It also adds an optional M61 Vulcan cannon load so the jet can be tailored for Blue Angels-style flying.

Configuration update for FSX default F/A-18 Hornet. By Michal Lubiscak.

I have updated almost everything:

  • Weights and their positions (empty, max take off, pilot, pylons, bullets, ...)
  • Flight dynamics
  • Volume and position of tanks
  • Parameters of engines (position, fuel flow, time of reaction, ...)
  • Contact points (more exactly defined + added some more)
  • Head position and few more details ...

Note:

  • I added M61 Vulcano cannon as a "load" so it can be deleted, when you're flying with a Blue Angel model.
  • I fly with these settings: realism-100%, sensitivity-95% (doesn't matter if you have more), null zone-5% (doesn't matter if you have less).
