Re: Additional Planes
+1 yeaaaa
but it has to be realy competitive in comparison to the diana

Re: Additional Planes
So just put S.Kawa in as pilot model and it will be fine.but it has to be realy competitive in comparison to the diana
Re: Additional Planes
No need to mention the type, I guess :
Now that AA2 is coming, I would really really love to be able to try to do that flight in Condor :

... and it has of course nothing to do with the fact that I did my first ever glider ride on that very same F-CEAG, a loooooooooooooog time ago

Re: Additional Planes
Asg29-15?? take my +1
Re: Additional Planes
ASG 15m +1 but can you also consider doing something to even the performances? At the moment Diana is so ridiculously good that the other gliders won't stand a chance (performs almost the same as JS1-18, which really is amazing). I know Diana is good in RL, but it is not that good. If you look at the polars of V3 and Diana, there is no reason to choose V3 at any point. In slower speed they are quite the same but in Condor these kind of tasks can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Yes Diana is trickier in thermals and V3 easier but this does not compensate enough. IMO it will make races more interesting if V3, Diana, ASG are competitive with each other, like they are in RL. Just look at the recent result of CWC http://www.condor-club.eu/comp/besttimes/0/?id=12085 , you put a lot of effort to make these gliders only to be gathering dust in hangar.

Re: Additional Planes
You want to have fake gliders?
The only thing the Condor team can do is to make the gliders as realistic as possible...
And the Diana2 can be a widow maker at slower speeds...
Maybe it is time for more realistic competitions/tasks/rules..(?)
Crashes should be punished much, much firmer... In my opinion you shouldn't be able to win a competition with a crash... Just as in real life...

Re: Additional Planes
I didn't say fake. Gliders should be as realistic as possible and that is my point here. At the moment Diana's glide performance is not realistic. But it's just my opinion after flying against Dianas with V2. I understand that the polar data provides key data for developers but take Antares. 18m class got better the moment they changed Antares performance to more realistic. It has never been a best performing 18m glider or succeeded in competitions but original version indicated quite opposite.

Re: Additional Planes
Competitions are no objective way to compare gliders. Sebastian Kawa will win in any glider...

First Diana2 was only fourth here.
PS
This was on a landscape with a thermal map...

Re: Additional Planes
I want the asg29-15 or asw27 cause they also have a nice polar @ higher speed.
(Check out the asw27 speeds in Ulvade)
I also think it is easier for the devs adding variations of planes in wing span than new planes.
I would like to see competitors in the classes where they are missing.
Club class. Standard class. 15m. Open Class.
LS1fneo/LS4neo.Discus2.ASG29-15/JS3.ASH31/Quintus
Bringing new planes that can use different wing spans would be great in general.
According to the comps it would be interesting choice to create competitions where u have
to decide for a single plane for the whole comp.
Last thing i have to say (again): I miss the LS10 (also 15m & 18m) with a nice polar @ higher speed.
