Special Server Maintenance
Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.
Justflight Goes For The Hawk
- Thread starter DaleRFU
- Start date
The performance issues that affected the Tornado GR1 (addressed in the latest version - http://www.justflight.com/support/tornado-gr1/d4bc508) won't affect the Hawk. It is also a less complex aircraft/model so performance will be generally better than the GR1. We'll probably release a demo for you to 'try before you buy' as usual.

With the release of the Hawk now imminent here are a few of the final pics to share with you.

Not from the outset Dave. Will follow though.

Exactly the same issue here too! 
I've submitted a Support Request on the JF website.

Feel free to start one Rob (or anyone else) and I will definitely make it a sticky. If possible please add some screenshots.
As I don't have the model I can't post any screenshots. As it doesn't have a propeller it is doubtful that I will purchase it. But I do fully agree that its a very nice addition to the still growing fleet of top aircraft models available for FSX.
Cheers,
Huub

I'm about to submit a Tech Support Request at JF, but before I do I was wondering if any other early adopters can replicate the following issue...? It happened for a while, but now I can't replicate it myself! I'm not sure what is happening:
Straight and level flight. Gear and flaps up. Very responsive in roll. Lower airbake (distinct change in pitch, as IRL). Roll still responsive. Retract airbrake, suddenly NO roll at all (controls in VC moving though). Do a slow count to ~10.... suddenly completely responsive in roll again.
Any ideas?
Also, before I read the entire manual and do a cold 'n' dark start I'm using the power on button on the bespoke GUI menu, then Ctrl+x. All starts just fine. However, when trying to power up the throttle won't budge using my X52 Pro. Instead I have to "unlock" the throttle first by moving with my mouse cursor. Does anyone else encounter the same?
I should say I'm flying in P3D3 but am posting here as it is a popular thread and if there is an issue I imagine it'll be the same in FSX.
Many thanks

How fps here? Like in JF Tornado? After my adventures with Tornado's JF I'm very careful here with this line, sorry.
btw. not my opinion (I havent JF Hawk) but some thoughts of friend (is it true?):
- NWS not working or ground handling problem,
- if GPU will be disconnected the engine will stop,
- no Throttle animation,
- take off / FM problems
- problems with animation of controls
Perhaps I'll check for the demo at first.

YoYo, at least 2 of these aledged issues are born from not understanding the Hawk's systems (or should I say not reading the manual).
- NWS not working or ground handling problem, ==> The Hawk does not have NWS in real life, it uses castored steering through differential braking.
- if GPU will be disconnected the engine will stop, ==> The Hawk does not use a GPU, it has a build in GTS starter which works as in the flight manual. However, system failures are likely to happen if you have the Failures Configurator enabled.
Regarding frame rates or more important, smoothness: On my system (i7-4970K/GTX970) the Hawk performs in the same league as the JF Canberra, Milviz F-4, Aerosoft F-14.
