Believing the planned release date in the announcement FAQ... ah, to be young again and frolic in such nonsense.

I disagree. When I tried the maximum speed, I got 344 kts (637 km/h) at 20000 ft ( 6096 meters ) From my experience people forget to close engine cowl flaps that makes huge difference in drag.

Thank you. I've been using the Mi24P since its release. I understand that I need the correct angle. Perhaps the error is in my DCS files.

Hi @DeltaChangoAlpha and welcome to the forum. Just be aware that as a new user with no history here asking to connect with former military pilots may be seen as a red flag. It may be best to share some back ground about yourself and your experience so people feel more comfortable. thanks Bignewy

I am not able to install it on my PC. Can you help me ? Thank you in advance .

I'll do another clean connect the next days and will provide the DCS.log. At one occasion, I had waited 10 minutes before I killed the app. My buddy who was already on the server has seen my connect but I obviously never made it. Waiting 3 minutes might be annoying, waiting 10 minutes is impossible I'll provide the log...

I do a summer sale of Rhino Joystick DIY kit (standard version for 57BLF03 motors). Price is now 299 instead of 349 €. This sale is limited till end of august. One kit is in stock. More can be put together if required.

Ich habe den Sniper ATP noch nie benutzt, aber soweit ich weiß gibt es da ein paar Fallstricke, wenn man den Zoom nutzt, ohne den XR-Modus zu aktivieren. Am besten postet ihr mal einen kurzen Track, bevorzugt in der Kaukasus-Karte, vielleicht kann euch dann jemand ein paar Tipps geben. Und soweit ich gehört habe sind wir außerdem alle etwas vom Litening und ATFLIR verdorben, weil die beiden in DCS wohl ein deutlich schärferes Bild liefern, als das eigentlich der Fall sein sollte. Deshalb kann es durchaus sein, dass der Sniper ATP unrealistisch unscharf wirkt, während er im Moment wohl tatsächlich deutlich realistischer ist als die beiden alten TGPs. (Andererseits hoffe ich sehr stark, dass Litening und ATFLIR vorläufig so bleiben wie sie sind, weil unzählige Missionen und Kampagnen sonst alle neu getestet und evtl. überarbeitet werden müssten, was einen Heidenaufwand nach sich zieht.)

One age old DCS question: Does the P5 beat the JULI? (We have the P5 for the F-1?.... I can't remember). -Ryan

well, will you lose anything even if you pre-order it?

I JUST added curves for this. It didn't occur to me I might need a larger dead zone. Formation flying is pretty much routine now in most cases, but the fine movements throw me off. For example, it's clear micro movements on the stick require micro movements on the throttle. Need to slow a bit, the nose comes down, so just a TOUCH of pitch up. But not too much! The pitch oscillations are killing me, roll not so much. I'll try a larger pitch curve. Also, I swapped in the stiffer springs which is helping. I've come so close!

Ich dachte schon ich bin einfach zu blöd, aber ich erkenne auch rein gar nichts. In den Tutorial Videos ist das alles scharf, aber was ich auch versuche, es ist absolut nichts zu erkennen.

I had this issue at first and found that it was some interaction between the .50s and the turbulence setting in my mission. When I disabled turbulence the nose wipping stopped.

After a few years in other modules, I decided to revisit the Case 1. I remember how helpful these tracks were. Due to game updates, they no longer work correctly. If anyone wants to post some new tracks, I am sure they will be as beneficial to new people as they were to me.

Thanks for the reply, I'll try setting the paging file to 32 and then update. Regards

Problem here is that the F-16 Litening pod isn't real. It was a placeholder. No actual pod can "see" that well, and ED says it's a mish-mash of technologies. On the pother hand, the ATP is an attempt at reality. In other words, reality *is* the use case for the ATP. -Ryan

I just ran that mission. Keep in mind it's the pilot's job to manoeuvre and position the helicopter in a way that gives Petrovich a proper line-of-sight to the target. By the time I spotted them (they are not easy to find), I was already pretty close and I managed to destroy 3 M-113s on the first pass. I had to come around for the last one, since it moved and was obstructed by smoke. I then approached from the opposite end, but Petrovich said: "target obstructed, need a different angle" so I broke off again and attacked from the side. This time I got the last M-113.

Всем привет, это моя первая миссия, которую я постарался сделать для всех игроков разного уровня владением вертолёта. Она достаточно простая, ваша задача взлететь с аэродрома базирования "Беслан" выдвинуться на ППМ1. В районе ППМ1 обнаружено 9 летательных аппаратов, их цель это ваш аэродром, ваша задача сбить летательные аппараты. Немного про механику: При подлёте в зону заспавнятся 3 летательных аппарата (далее ЛА), если повезет, то наземное ДРЛО доложит их позиции, запоминайте или записывайте это, потому что по не понятным мне причинам ДРЛО очень плохо работает в паре с Ка-50, у меня даже не получилось решить проблему того, что в меню радиопереговоров не появляется пункт ДРЛО. Будет 3 фазы налётов по 3 ЛА. После сбития группы, появляются новые, это сделано для того, чтобы упростить задачу, ведь погодные условия не благоприятные и думаю, что мало опытным лётчикам было бы тяжело отбить 9 ЛА за раз. Еще хочу отметить поведение ведомого. Если вы даете ему задачу атаковать цель, после успешного выполнения приказа, возвращайте ведомого в строй, ибо он продолжит атаковать другие цели и если вы оба будете атаковать один и тот же БПЛА, ваш ведомый просто может сбить вас, неважно чем, может даже собой. Установка: Распаковываем архив. В нем мы увидим папку "KA50" её нужно перенести в папку missions по пути "C:\Users\User\Saved Games\DCS\Missions\" Файл с миссией находится в "KA50\m1-DestroyingBPLA.miz" Локализация пока-что только на русском, думаю в скором времени переведу на английский. Так же открыт для обсуждений и предложений. Рад буду услышать вашу критику, даже плохую. Приятных полётов! m1-ka50.rar

Thank you everyone for all of your input. I greatly appreciate it! I couldn't figure it out for the life of me haha

We typically write in the thread and callback when something got fixed

I created a single user mission using the Normandy map. Flying the P51D with 3 AI aircraft in the flight. I created a rectangular trigger zone called Muzak and created a ONE-TIME “Radio Transmission” trigger that plays an .ogg file and assigned the frequency as AM 131 mhz. Player Radio C is set to 131 mhz. During takeoff I can hear aircraft 2, 3 and 4 announce they are “rolling” and other normal communications (like wheels up, etc.). I can issue commands to the flight like changing formation etc. and the flight responds as expected (“roger”, “affirmative”). However after playing the .ogg file by selecting radio channel C and changing back to channel A, I can no longer issue commands to the flight. The trigger plays the .ogg file as it should but once it is done and I switch back to the normal frequency (118.45) I can’t seem to communicate with the flight.anymore. I tried issuing commands like changing formation and return to base but the flight doesn’t follow the commands or respond in any way. Hopefully this explanation allows you to recreate the issue.

You can download my Canadian ones and just reverse engineer the files you want. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3336149

Just tried one of the generic hospital landing pads on the roof in the Huey. N 52°24'38.61" E 9°45'39.26" Some things I need to mention: 1. There is a fence around the roof that's quite high 2. After touchdown the helicopter seems to float above the roof top level. Seems the level where the helicopter comes to rest is the same height like the surrounding small wall, where the fence is mounted to. Thanks Jens
