Ralfi's Alley - Mig-29S Fulcrum Love
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 кві 2017
- I hopped in the Open Conflict Server and flew the Mig-29S for a change. Managed to fly two sorties without dying once which is pretty neat. This is the first sortie and the one with the most kills, but the very first scene was from my second sortie, where a bf-109 just happen to be flying around the battlefield. Why? I have no clue...
I left this mainly unedited, though I cut out three empty bits where nothing was happening. Included here are also subtitles where I explain some things here and there. A lot of people seem to like that quite a bit so I figured that might be better than me talking over it.

God the winter maps look amazing. Awesome vid Ralfi
OperatorDrewski agreed! Great video!!
Thanks. Ground textures help.
OperatorDrewski i luv you operator drewski
"On all levels except physical, I am a MiG-29"
**burns coal furiously**
MillionFoul hhhh
true :D but those engines will get you out of any bad situation nevertheless.
Except ones involving missiles.
I identify as a flanker
I identify as a *team-killing fucktard.
There, fixed it for you.
Very well said. I worked A-10's' F-4's and F-16's from A to D and too many blocks to count. And I only had to know two systems. I enjoy DCS and marvel at your skill not only to fly but the systems as well. I can fly anything, but to use it as it was intended is another story. Thanks Ralfi, from an old retired AF vet.
MiG29 versus Bf109 - soon in WarThunders near you !
I mean, who takes a knife to a gun fight?!
ralfidude pure BR matchmaking goodness bro

@ralfidude Underrated comment
Todays show brought to you by the letter "PULL UP... PULL UP" and the number "Oy blyat"
the MiG-29 is such a sexy aircraft... probably my favorite looking plane in DCS. and perhaps in real life too.
Xavier H. same here
I prefer the Su-27 but the Mig-29 is still really cool.
Proficiency to the point where it seems effortless. THATS why i love watching your vids
I am usually very sucessful using the mig when fighting the Blue side.
That is because the F-15s dont expect the enemy (mostly su-27) to have fire and forget radar guided missiles, so they usually just turn towards me when i fire the r-77 and fly right into their death :D
Nice sortie Ralfi, good kills :)
Like the video format too but gotta say, missed your voice a bit
Tried the 29s recently also, been putting it off waiting for that fabled flight model update. It kinda reminds me of an F-5 when you forget to turn on the dampers at the moment..
All in good time I guess. The new model and cockpit textures are very nice
Once in a while it's nice for me to just shut up and let the people enjoy the native sounds of the game. I mix it up all the time.
Fair do's bud, wasn't knocking it :) I enjoyed it regardless
Had a thought this morning about the flight model, made me come to this conclusion;
i.imgur.com/27UXJUz.jpg
Why would the pitch be all the way back there? Wouldn't it pivot around the center of mass (which looks to be roughly in the middle)?
Wouldn't it pivot around the elevators?
oh, guess it's right then
My favorite plane to fly in DCS. Su-27 radar and missiles is nice, but it just doesn't accelerate and climb like I feel a 4th gen fighter should. MiG-29's thrust to weight is just insanity.
I remember Ralfi dude saying the MiG-29 was the most broken plane in the game and was very cheap though...:)
It is. It has the lowest flight mechanics of any other DCS aircraft (though they are working on that) and it has a borked damage model. It's nearly impossible to kill a 29 with a single short range heater. 9/10 of my engagements against a 29 resulted in 2 or more missiles being required to kill it, and an insane amount of guns. And it used to be FAR worse in the past too. This thing TANKS rounds, and it's not a feature.
ralfidude I fly the Fulcrum exclusively and I have to say that's BS. it used to be this way. You could almost always tank one missile. This does not happen anymore. It was fixed around the same time the S model was updated.
Do some testing, you'll see that it doesn't tank them anymore. I fly it almost everyday so I'd know. I hated that it used to do that because people would say I was flying some cheap OP broken plane, but it's fixed now and you're still claiming this.
Evgeney it's kind of weird to see someone having the same avatar. albeit i do not fly any sim etc and bf2 doesnt have realism one bit but that's where i fell in love with the 29 nevertheless, hehe.
ThunderMan good taste
Good content and advice as usual ralfi, love the 29S
Good flying man, it usually takes me 2 or 3 planes to get through a mission like this. Nice work :)
If the lady insists on you pulling up, then maybe you should indulge her?! :))))))
That's how babies are(n't) made.
gotta love good ol' bitchin betty...odd hearing her in a mig tho.
expected to hear an "annoying Anastasiya". "easy comrade, ive got vodka here...I SAID PULK IT UP IGOR or off to ze gulag!!"
I really love the Mig-29s, such nice looking planes and handle well.
altho I have FC3, sometimes I even forget this plane exists in the game and all I fly is the A-10C. Videos like this are a good reminder.
Wow what a great flight !
Friday night I've got a beer and a notification that ralfi has uploaded a video... FUCKING SWEEEEET...
That landing though. Buttered the bread with that landing for sure.
Liked the explanation beneath the video, very useful!
Fristi, I wonder this too.
With the seekers now I'm surprised those ETs even hit. Nice sneaking.
Damn i really like that mig29 😍😍I'll get in it tonight after seeing this awesome clip 👍🏾
Know the quality of Ralfi's videos..Haven't seen it...gonna upvote.
Christ the reflections in the mirrors are amazing
Bf-109s vs MiG-29s? What is this, War Thunder?
Muddy Fudger Is there a problem with that? According to my sauce everything is 110% historically correct
sekrit dokumints
prograde Your profile picture makes your conment a million times better lmfao
ralfi, i know you love blue planes like a10 and f15, but i definitely enjoy watching you play red planes like flanker and fulcrum more.
sneeki breeki, not cheeki breeki - the way the 29 is meant to fight
And I was very fuel efficient for a 29 too, it surprised even me how much you can get out of a 29 when you stay below 90% RPM
Also there's a neat point somewhere along the throttle (like ~83%) where it produces much less smoke than mil power
Edit: I also can't believe it never occurred to me before to load 2 ETs and 4 77s
Very nice.
I bet you that 109 was either Bert or NASA6. I'll have to ask on the forums lol
ahh,, i miss the Open Conflict server..
Looks like a 1440p ultrawide, welcome to the club XD
Would be really curious for you to post a screen shot of what you see for some of those far away targets
Nice!
Pretty fast landing.
100% Passive, nice
Downgraded to 1080 by the time it'a on youtube he says.... Default at 240 and max resolution is 360. Good video as always, Ralfi. I don't think I've seen you in a MiG-29 since before DCS world... like... FC2
A few S&G episodes, especially the one where line goes nuts with the fuck counter.
He did a video with it not that long ago actually :)
How much advantage do you think 2k or 4k gives over 1080 and how much of a disadvantage do you think lower resolution VR is?
I fly both. VR is great for ground pounding and BFM but u need a HD rig and not the DK2 I fly with.
yeah Ive won some fights in VR but its a damn hassle not to mention the price tag when its all said and done. U cant beat TrackIR or the free but very shitty face tracking solutions available.
what is that clicking sound? some kind of warning system?

Rick on the Internet IT WAS EITHER A FISH, SEAWEED OR DIAL UP!!
Ralfi, will you do more MiG 29 stuff in future now that the PFM is there?
Can someone send me link on video with resolution scale because i cant spot anything. Btw nice job, you are making rly nice videos ;)
I always play on open conflict, but I guess when you're not. Damn :/
Unrelated ralfidude, but DCS 2.0 and 1.5 I get a slight pull on the ground to the right. It only happens in the A10 and in singleplayer. Rudder axis alignment is good and tried different load outs for asymmetric loads and it's always slight pull to the right. Happens only on the ground including with steering enabled/disabled.
Any thoughts?
Not really, unless you have an axis conflict, double mapped controls, that sort of thing. I'd check on the ED forums.
PS.. please tell Grzegorz Brzęczyszczykiewicz excellent flying..
I've double checked for double mapped controls and cannot locate the problem. I've checked ED forums and most of the time it's pilot error. This seems to be something else.
Just been playing lots of singleplayer lately due to ISP being $#!'}{'
Thanks anyways!
You need to make more vids for the greater good of humanity
can I ask what processor are you running or your system specs I am building a new pc and want to make sure I can run this again
Hey Guys just wanted to ask fo help concerning joysticks: What do you think is the best one to start with? I have just no idea and definitly don't want to pay more than maximum 100€. And my second question: How do you control a plane/helicopter with a joystick but without pedals? I asking this because pedals obviously would cost more money.
Go for the TM Hotas Warthog. Little more than your looking to spend but you'll thank me later. Also you really are not going to do the choppers without either peddles or a stick with a twisting yaw axis, the TM Warthog does NOT have twisting yaw axis. Spend the money, the stick, throttle, and peddles will last a long time with maintenance and easy use.
Hey Ralfi, what setting ur using? Im playing 1440p as well its insane hard to stop anything, dots are supper small... any mods or sweetfx to help or ur running vanilla? Thanks and GG
Vanilla. Dots appear more when not zoomed in, they disappear when zoomed fully in.
2D sprites are rendered smaller at higher resolutions in DCS. There's a mod to fix that, but not allowed on most MP servers sadly. forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=160634
Best resolution for visibility in vanilla DCS is 720p or lower actually.
Those 2d sprites have been broken (or removed) since 1.5.4. We are on 1.5.6 Update 1. So about 6 months. Now it is just a single pixel at long range. Although I have seen that single pixel when against a clear sky up to about 150Km away...
Basically visibility in DCS is fucked. Odd since even IL-2 CloD, BoX and even Falcon 4 get it good enough.
Pull up in a mig? Should be translated into BLYAT BLYAT :D
That was my thought, also. Bitchin' Betty ought to be speaking Russian. That way you can be learning a second language while skimming the treetops and communing with the squirrels.
I admit I don't know how the server works, but "Conflict Server" sort of sounds like a sophisticated death match. If that's the case, how on Earth is 3:30 a thing? There are enemy and friendly AWACS craft up for what amounts to the sim version of a quake map?
why are your sound effects so much better than mine
custom RWR. But aside form that everything else should be the same.
Hey Ralfi. Awesome shit man. One question though, I get why you change the resolution but is the reason you change the aspect ratio/crop the video purely for subtitles? Cheers mate. Good to see you back.
Aesthetic look. In my previous videos where I do that it gets very positive reactions so from time to time I choose to go with the black bar cinematic view. Super wide screen folk get fucked though, but they are a minority and we all know how minorities get treated in the US of A.
Looks cool. Was just curious about it. Cheers again mate.
lol yep he went there
god i love u man
Is there any way you can upscale the 1080p raw footage to 1440p, then upload that to UA-cam? The higher bitrate reduces the compression effects.
I'm not spending the time to upload 1440 videos mate, sorry. It takes a while.
That makes sense- thanks for the reply! Also, excellent work on this video- the helmet mounted sight is a great addition!
Im Curious, Do you use your trackir for zooming in or keys on your HOTAS?
He said in one of his videos that he uses the friction slider on the right of the HOTAS Warthog throttle
Which texture pack are you using ralfi?
wait u have an ultrawide monitor_? lmao they are awesome
1:15 you sound like aeromoza when the plane is about to take off
Nice video!
Really wish they can add some up-to-date Russian planes, with radar and avionics to match the F-15's... like the Su-30 or something
stop bitching, at least you got data link. Eagles should have it but nope...
Tyler Churchwell Hes got a point when it comes to the F-18. The russians should get an Fc-3 like mig-31 or at least a modernised mig-25 (I dont think thats a proper match for the 18)
I was just pestering. But yeah im sure they already would have however something is preventing the release of data from all matching era jets for 3rd party devs. outside of just pure secrecy it has to do with some act or law...got to /r/hoggit. they try to explain why there may never be any more 4th gen russian fighters which is a damn shame.
eddit: I was tired. obv there wont be an 5th gen incl th F22 for oh, let say min 35 years.
sparky20100 that was a mig29S from 2007 and it can destroey the f15 in 2015 mig 29smt m2
Fresh Dumbledore mig 29 m2 smt sd are better then any modern f18 f16 f15
I know this is an older video, and maybe it's mentioned somewhere else, but what's the RWR sound mod you seem to be using for the 29? I can't find something similar and the RWR sounds in that drive me nuts. I've found a lot of people end up just ignoring it, turning it off, or turning it down so far it's useless which just gets you killed.
The Fulcrum really isn't a bad BFM machine if you can get around it's shortcomings.
Void304 Its the best gunfighter (also due to its horrible flight model) in the gane
I don't know how it would compare to a real MiG-29, but it's largest handicap (in my experience) was it's annoyingly poor range. Every time I use it it seems that I'm fighting with one eye on the fuel gauge.
Ralfi do you have any advice? My game is very broken with me not able to move my view in cockpit after I disabled eye tracking, my carriers won’t work, and I can’t join multiplayer. My computer is extremely capable of running dcs with Rtx 2070 super, intel i9, and 32 gigs ram
no idea mate, ask on the forums instead
hey great vids, this helps me a lot. I started playing dcs almost 2 weeks ago and rwr sounds makes me mental, and many people including u have click sound instead of beeps :D Can u please tell me how to get that? Google isn`t really helping if u don`t know what ur looking for :D
RAE MOD ralfi edit
@@ralfidude Danke sir :)
What is that continuous noise? tuf tuf...
Hey Ralfi, what's that constant clicking like sound we hear in the cockpit? Is that some sort of radar or something? Please explain!

How do you find the time to learn each aircraft? In real life it takes months to learn switchology let alone system capabilities then add aircraft performance, real fighter jocks take months to transition to another weapon system and even then more training to become truly combat ready. With the pilot shortage you should have no problem realizing your dream that I recall reading in your profile a few years back. And a plus is you have the attitude! Might want to check into it with you USAF recruiter.
This is a simulator that does a decent job but we as players don't have to go through every little detail that they do in real life. It would be essentially impolite to even suggest it's remotely close to being the same. That said, I learn slowly because it's my passion. When you find something fun it's not hard work, it's just a really great past time. So have fun with it!
Stupid question: at 7:16 - how did you determine which one is friendly which one a con ?
You very quickly turn your radar on and then off again and see in the bottom left corner of the HUD if the IFF returns a friend or foe signal. When you do it that fast they never even get the radar spike.
Thanks Ralfi. I'm not used to russian iron so some details still escape me :) I'll look closer. One more question - jesteś polakiem ? :)
I know this is an old video, but is the sound standard or is it a mod?
You should remember to check your emails, the symbol was catching my eye ;~)
When you are in EO and hook someone up, if you flash your radar on, shouldn't the other person get a lock tone on their RWR? You radar isn't in search mode is it? Because if simply turning the radar on is enough to fire 27ERs or 77s, it means the radar has to be in track mode, but yet apparently if you just turn the radar (for identifying friend/foe for example) while already tracking a target in EO mode, the other plane doesn't get a lock tone, they just get a spike on the RWR.
Remember that spike and nails are different.
EO to find someone and track until launch. When you fire, the radar turns on I believe.
But when I'm in EO and I quickly flash my radar on and off to IFF, they don't get any spikes because it happens too quickly.
so the r77 doesn't lose lock anymore? nice!
ikr? Its weird, i killed an f-15 at 50km with my er and could track them at 100km i was like wtf
Yeet
is it just me or is the mig 29 hard to fly, especially take off
Pull up.
Ralfi, should I get the Mig 21 or the F5 first? I've only got enough for one right now, and I am not sure which to get.
You can do more in the 21 but she's hard. If this is your first DCS module then F5 is easiest to get into. Very basic but still fun. But the 21 can also be very fun, it's just very difficult to manage everything for a new DCS player, or a player that has only flown Flaming Cliffs aircraft.
Zomalk mig
Thanks for the advice. It is not my first aircraft, but I think the Mig should be a nice challenge.
keep in mind you cant buy the stand alone luke the F5, eagle, and 27. u gotta buy the FC3 module. comes with a few nice if a little out dated jets. I think the F% has autotrim like the eagle whereas the ruskies fly STIM meaning you are always having to trim the damn jets instead of focusing on the fight.
Like ralph said, if ur ok-ace try it out. if you are just starting, go F5. unless its STIM too. I think the MIG has datalink like the 27 too but again I could be wrong.
oh yea, the 29 burns dirty so unless your lucky you will get spotted quick if not BVR
Zomalk mig 21
heyy!!! i got an idea! that Bf 109 try to knock out some E-2s and A-10s!!! btw I think I know that pilot...
what is all that clicking sound?
MIG-29 butty
Nice job man, whats that clicking noise though?
RWR
Odd, reckon I'll fly some 29 on 16agr now, never got the ptab down
it's my custom RWR sound file
So... you could like... literally record a fart.. and that'd be the aww shit mim launch sound??
yes you can XD
Post more please
i was the bf109 , that was today right xD? i was just flying around trying to learn to fly that thing when i saw u behind me just to late :D
Flying a 109 in that server to learn that plane is really not a grand idea. You're up against jets mate. There are better ways of doing that. Gave me a chuckle though.
ye i fly there alot with the su27, i know its not a good idea :D i just was flying around and enjoying the scene. didnt expect to survive or anything :D .. and at some point i looked at my 6 and saw u, as u can see i pulled just away in the end but to late :D
You know I WAS going to pull up next to you once I saw what you were. But you pulled away and I just had to end it right there.
dont pull to my right side tho, i might have pewpewed u with that flare gun :D
huh, lol thought it was bert or nasa. u guys are nuts lol
~who need radar when you got high resolution screen that can spot enemy from many miles away...=P
meh, only out in 360p. might as well give it a thumbs up and come back later.
it's 1080p now (atleast for me)
I choose you talk it rather than subtitle because I can focus on the screen and no need read the subtitles
Had a cold, didn't want to talk.
What screen resolution and ground texture mod ?
I guess I shouldn't have even bothered with my little intro speech explaining that at 0:26 seconds.
watching movies on UA-cam on 2nd screen without sound. gonna listen to that.
ok 4k. what screen are you using and how is the FPS hit ? I have a 6700k with 16Go and 1080 GTX. Still using an old 1080p 27'' screen, looking to change.
I said 1440 resolution, not 4k mate.
was editing lol. What about the GTM ?
ralfi. Is there real difference between amraam and amraamski in the game?
huh?
something about boat fuckers
I think he means the R-77 by amraamski
aim120 and r-77
Shorter range, as its just the r77 instead of the M version, but almost impossible to dodge at short range.
Why dont you just use the r-77 like an aim-120, firing from above?
yea, if im gonna spam I go eagle. I fly "stealth" with Russian datalink and IR R73s
Lst time I used the R77 it flew right by the dumbass who couldnt or wouldnt go defensive.
...I fired twice. killed him BFM with guns and never used them again.
The problem is that the migs radar sucks and therefore the lock often does not work. Pressing alt w wont make your missile track.
But overall the r-77 is a really good missile. Its like the 120 but with a bit less range and better maneuverability
120s stealthy launch makes it the amazing.
ralfi... we miss you (UPLOAD ANOTHER VIDEO)
Too busy maintaining my 4.0 this semester, two more weeks of finals, then I'm done for summer break.
good luck man i have exams friday so i feel ya
do you fly the m2000c?
Would be nice if you didn't hardcode black bars in your video for those of us that also have ultrawide screens, youtube fully supports 21:9 format videos.
Well the vast majority doesn't and it really does look a lot nicer for the majority. I don't do it often though.
I don't really see how it would look any different to this on a "normal" screen though... Other than the text you put in the black parts. If that hadn't been there I'd just have cropped the video to fit in using an extension anyway.
It adds a cinematic effect to the video. I've noticed people really seem to enjoy the videos that I do that in.
Gotta agree with lazyboot here; if you're cropping for aesthetics (and it does look nice that way), surely it's hardly any hassle at all to actually crop off the video rather than just hardcoding bars? The visual effect on a 16:9 display would be indistinguishable, and those of us with ultrawides get a nice bonus experience.
Ralfi do you think you could actually fly these planes in real life?
I think that first kill was me
I cut out the names of people with the cinematic black bars so I have no idea.
When did you record it ?
today
Most likely , can't see shit in vr
the glare is so bad
yes it is...
Всё хорошо Ралфи,но как ты определяешь свой-чужой?Перед пуском необходимо включать радар,что бы своих не валить.
0:10 WHYYYYY DID YOU DO THIS? If you see a puppy at your doorstep do you hit it with a sledgehammer?
No I take care of it with my drone and my custom w....oh hey uncle sam I didnt know you were listening.
Wait, where are we going????
No I take care of it with my drone and my custom w....oh hey uncle sam I didnt know you were listening.

You land this bird at a very high speed. 340 km/h is excessively fast. Normal landing speed is 270-280 km/h.
I know but this is an FC3 model that can take a lot of abuse and won't overreact like a DCS level aircraft will. Plus I didn't want to waste too much time since I only have so much to spare to make a video.
Most of us Westerners have a general idea of how a Western HUD is laid out and what means what but have no idea what the hell we're looking at with Russian designs. Is there a video that does a quick run down on the Russian layout or can you do a quick explanation for us viewers one day?
Oh men, PULL UP betty from F-16, RWR sounds also not belongs to SPO-15..... It really hurts my ears.
And that warbird... You really know how to kill... ...The realism...
Sound files for FC3 aircraft make it difficult to distinguish between each aircraft, some sound files are shared between West and East planes. Nothing I can do about that.
SPO-15 cannot distinguish between aircraft types in reality. It has same sound for all. Some western RWR have function called synthetic audio which makes different sound for every radar (in such case sound basically represents the emmission of the radar) but it is not a case for SPO-15. SPO-15 is very basic RWR.
IIRC DCS default sounds for SPO-15 are more realistic. Those sounds sound like mod that takes sounds from western aircraft RWR and puts them into SPO-15.
macieksoft No you misunderstand. The DCS sound files for RWR returns are shared among Western and Eastern aircraft for things like the "pull up" sound file you mentioned at first and what not. I did change the sounds for the Eastern and Western block to separate them as much as possible aside for the ones that are shared between the two and there is nothing I can do about that.
I like MiG-29 also, but it's avionics works in completely different way in real life. Real MiG-29 is an interceptor connected to ground control stations and dependant on them. It's not an independent hunter-killer. MiG-29 in DCS in very simplified so i wait for an advanced avionics and flight model for this beautiful aircraft.
The MiG-29 is a multirole air-superiority fighter, not an interceptor. So yes, it is capable of being an independent hunter killer. But I do agree that DCS has the MiG extremely simplified and I also cant wait for the advanced model.
Що там щолкає?)
The zoom thing is totally unrealistic.
In real life you can stick your nose to the canopy and you won’t see any farther.
Entertaining though.
It's a fucking game, of course there are unrealistic parts to it. Limitations of the details available by the best monitor screens of our time still cannot compare to the detail of the human eye. You compensate for things like that. That and I try to make things more entertaining for the viewers so they can actually see what I'm seeing.
Dude Upload the 1440p and be a boss
Dude most of my recent uploads are.
NOTIFICATION SQUAAAD
wow i tough the mig 29 was more advanced, such analog dials and controls why are the US scared of this plane? the cockpit of the f-16 looks way more advanced
They aren't. The Mig-29 has not proven itself in battle much at all. But you really don't want to be in a close in fight with a Fulcrum. That's where the bird shines the most.
veiga devil back in the days it had dogfight capabilities that the western planes just didn't have. Capable high off boresight launches happened only like 12 years later for western aircraft.
Anywhere outside short range and the pilot is 80% fucked though. As you noticed, all the analog stuff puts a huge work load on the pilot, time that an F-15 would easily take to btfo the 29.
ralfidude I thought it wasn't intended to be absolutely advanced and fight on par with f-15s. It was meant to be cheap alternative to su27 and to cover advancing troops on short ranges from rought airfields. So its ruggednes comes not only from Soviet Union lagging behind US (which it did). In some aspects it was intended to be like that.
Workload and instrumentation could be attributed to time saving for transition from mig23s and overall retardation of human ingeneering in ussr.
Isn't it?
i saw a documentary dat the f22 was built cuz the US tought this mig and the su was going to kick the f15s ass
DroehnIng the cockpit does tell you a lot though. You can find first hand experience of an F-16, F-15 and MiG-29 pilot going through how inferior the plane is and how like 80% of it comes from the horrible cockpit.
When's shits and giggles returning?
When it's ready
Best reply ever!!
