Condor: The Competition Soaring Simulator is designed to recreate the ultimate experience of competition soaring on your PC. A lot of attention was put in to create an environment which would create an immersion of real competition flying. This means that the aerodynamics and weather physics were in focus of the development. The result is amazingly real feel of flight in all flight regimes and weather conditions which challenges a real soaring pilot on a competition day.
Amazing feel of flight due to the advanced flight dynamics model: Advanced 6DOF flight model for complete freedom of flying / Accurate sailplane performance and handling – also at and beyond critical angles of attack / Sailplane damage simulation – flutter, high G stress, collisions / High time fidelity physics engine (up to 500 cycles per second) / Accurate ground forces for realistic takeoffs, landings and crashes / Detailed, sub-object collision detection for mid air and ground object collisions / Accurate conditions for a realistic towing and winch start.
Each race will be scored with ShowCondorIGC and calcutated to 1000 points. IGC/DAeC index will be used for scoring. Overall result is count of best 6 results from total 12 flights (best of 50% results). Results of racing days and also overall score will be posted on this website next day after actuall race is done. Cloud flying will be penalized with 60 penalty points per minute. Outland in task - points for distance, crash and status "Racing" will be scored with zero points.
