AITRACKER X - question before buying

[FoxMulder1982 1]

Hello everyone and sorry for my English, I hope it is understandable 😏

I am interested in purchasing AITRACKER X. However, I would like to use only the Formation flights function for flights in the virtual aerobatic team without using other program functions. I'm not interested in watching AI planes or a custom camera system. I do the flights mainly in the cockpit and I do not watch aircraft from outside. As I wrote, I would like to fly in the formation simulating the aerobatic team.
Therefore, I would like to ask if it is possible to use only one of the formation (porgram) functions without having to use the others, which are not needed for the purpose which I indicated?

Best regards

Grzegorz

HI,

I'm not sure that I understand the question - if you don't want to use a certain feature of the program, then don't - ?

But please make sure that you understand how the formation feature in AITX actually works, to avoid being disappointed later. Personally I don't think that it is suitable for simulating an aerobatics team. All aircraft in the formation will do exactly what you are doing, they are "glued" to your aircraft. That is not the same as flying in a team, since you can't collide with them, and you can't fly split maneuvres where every aircraft takes a different path.

You would probably be better off with a recording / playback / overdub solution, like "JoinFS" (? not sure about that one, but I think that is what the software is called). Check Youtube for "Aerial Shorts", he is doing quite a lot of formation flying on all kinds of simulators.

Best regards

Yes, of course I understand how the program and formation flight functions work - it is difficult to express precisely in a language that is not my native language - sorry for that 😳
I mean the possibility of flying in formation and simulating acrobatics - even if the remaining planes will do exactly what I am and will be glued to me.

Thank You for Your answere
