How / where do you install these files ? I was expecting a .txt file with the instructions? Previous models you have to put files in DCS root file & DCS saved games folder.

I've already done several DTCs for the MiG-29A, and each one has an incorrect full flight time calculation in the summary, even though (in my opinion) the entire route was added correctly. In this case, we cover over 640 km in... 13 minutes. I think this would be achievable, but only for the SR-71 ;). This flight took me almost 45 minutes on the MiG. MiG-29A Caucasus C&D bad weather.miz

Судя по тех описанию ЦУ от НСЦ поступает в КОЛС и там превращается в углы КОЛС для ГСН ракеты. То есть захвата именно сенсором КОЛС быть не должно, с точки зрения логики КОЛС типа как двухголовый - у него есть ИК сенсор и НСЦ, смотря что первое даст хороший угол ракете для захвата.

Классика же. Людям за пк лучше знать как там реальные пилоты летают.

You could create a 3d model and texture it as you need. This may sound "BONKERS" but it should work problem - you have not got access to the EDM model file for the contours of the runway it may not be flat or level. Possible solution - In blender make a 3d single model of a matrix of numbered surveyers poles all at same height and same distances apart with ruler heights marked on them. Dont need a collission model. Setup the EDM model and textures as a static object . Place the static model as an object in Mission Editor on the airfield. Adjust the height of Model in Blender so all of the poles are all sunken into the ground a little. You can take screen shots in DCS of the poles and visually read and transfer each runway contour height to points on a flat subdivided plane the same as the pole spacings ( this will be the new 3d overlay model for the runway ) What i mean is load the 3d model of poles in blender and setup the flat subdivided plane and move the points on Z axis to match each pole height reading. Place the new 3d contour model over the old runway adjust final height just above old runway. I did the same thing for My Krupp K5 Leopold Railway gun as it needed to behave as a Tank but Look like a Train on Rails so i placed a Railway line Model and textures over a DCS road . See pictures Krupp K5 as a Tank revolving and firing on the turntable and as a Railway wagon behind my German Br52 Steam Loco. Have Fun

Since we already see this on the loading screen, why don't we have this possibility in game? Are there any limitations from the block 50 version DCS simulates?

Ok according to cross check of various documents describing all the digital hardware on board, there is AT LEAST sync between search PRF and SPO blocking signal. Keyword(or rather keynumber) is PRF in search equals to default SPO sync update. Blocking of SPO does not affect it's internal logic and processing in any way - it blocks antenna and preamp, not whole system. Also SPO uses memory to process signals and that mitigates blocking from radar, since it for example accumulates data on non-continous emissions. As for SPO being unable to handle HPRF it's very untrue, it's tested against a much higher PRF signal than MiG ever produces.

...to prevent this.

It's been about.... *cough* thirty-two *cough* years since I last took the controls of a live helicopter, and I remember the cyclic being fairly light, but I recall there was enough counter-resistance that I could feel when I was pushing on it. This WinWing is so light that I can blow on it and it moves about 6mm. Heck, if I hold it with just a finger and thumb, simply breathing moves it over ½". The cams it comes with are pretty smooth and resistance builds towards the ends of the axes, without having a discernible centre detent, but I either need to increase the spring tension, swap the cam profile or maybe just increase the damper force. Right now, simply moving my thumb to operate the switches is enough to throw everything right off. Aye, that's generally what seems to happen. Most commonly I skid in a left slide, and if I manage to stabilise that, I tip forward to get moving and end up sliding backwards or at an angle. Increasing collective seems to make it worse unless I put a lot on and just launch myself - Same for trying to hover, collective does nothing and cyclic generates lift but only once I'm moving at 40-60kph at least. Certainly this thread has given me a lot to work with and try out, and it looks like my weekend will be very busy with this - Thank-you everybody! I'll report back soon, hopefully with news of improvements....

Hey Steve Sorry for the late reaction, I was out of the office for a couple of days. Do you use Track IR? If so, check if TIR uses the F7 key for any shortcut, such as pause or center. If embaking is not working, which happens from time to time in DCS, a workaround should be available in the F-10 Radio menu. Please check and provide me with the result.

1. The Shrike model disappears (or is invisible) when you re-arm with a Shrike. 2. L-Shift+1,2,4,5 during re-arming to select Shrike desired seeker head response for each station does not seem to work. How is it done step by step? Thanks

Thank you. I’ve never messed with the IPD, I just assumed it was the same as the «set how far it is between your eyes» thing. Could it be beneficial to change that in DCS as well? A few comments: It’s altitude I think seems off. Distance seems somewhat better (although this is highly subjective). However I believe it’s considerably easier to spot stuff than in real life. Especially from distance and front facing in some planes with smaller front cross section, like 16, 21, etc

A bit later varians of F-16A. Block 15 and later did.

Maybe it is a bug, I am not sure.

Hello, I noticed when comparing the trailer and tutorial videos that the Roosevelt(71) aircraft carrier is populated and the Washington(73) is not. I'm planning to play the campaign with the F14. Could I take off and return from missions with the Roosevelt(71)? I assume so, given the squadron selection option at the start of the mission, but I'd rather ask you. Sincerely, Michael

You should make new liveries for the medium and low ones, resize full res ones and just name them, I think.

It means you can use the pop-up window NS430 in the aircraft but if you want the nice 3D model installed in the cockpit you have to buy it separately for each aircraft. Caution: Currently flat mode is incompatible with VR devices.

Ah I see. I didn't know they carried fox3 also.

No. Maybe the first one, but with block 15 it could carry sparrows and amrams after ADF modifications and MLU upgrades later. But yes, MiG-29A was superior platform when compared to very first F-16A variants (without amrams).

The problem is that it's not being disrupted by some obstacle. In my opinion, it should still work, and contrary to appearances, the direction to the beacon is still just as important, even though we have a signal from the PRMG. Maybe it's a bug?

Didn't 16A have only fox 2? 29 has DL, fox 1, HMS, 2 engines... IMHO it beats the 16A version in almost everything except RWR maybe

The aircraft and its description is fine. The thread is about the "NS430 and NS430 for MiG-29" product and its false description, false and misleading marketing. Yes, half* of functionality (comms) is not implemented, and that is a big deal. If it was a simple mistake they'd have simply corrected it years ago. But they didn't and keep adding the same info for more aircraft. It depends on the implementation. The RL device has connectors to the external antennas for both GPS, NAV and radios plus 3 kinds of data buses to connect to the aircraft. You can either just connect power and GPS antenna and have it just like in DCS or you can integrate it fully with mic button, helmet headphones, aircraft nav, comm and other systems. *Maybe even 2/3 if you count NAV like VOR and ILS but I don't have details on that.

Да, это приходится делать за него, отдавая нужные команды в нужное время. Помимо своих ЦПЖшных дел

I noticed that also, but localizer and course is still present. PRMG works independently of RSBN and should not be issue when in final on runway. Once PRMG is established , RSBN is not needed. Most likely you are right about inability to hold both signals. In MiG-21Bis, signal can also be lost if you are flying low or obstructed. But not as frequent as in MiG-29A. But in my case both happened rarely.

@C0re Mit Deiner Hardware bist Du ja gut aufgestellt, da wäre es wirklich schade DCS nicht in VR zu geniessen. In dem von Dir angegebenen Preissegment sehe ich hauptsächlich die Quest3 oder Pico4 als naheliegende Option. Wenn Du keine Scheu vor dem Gebrauchtmarkt hast, gehen in Deinem Preissegment natürlich noch andere Türen auf: die Pimax Crystal OG wäre dann zum Beispiel drin. Bei neuen Headsets würde ich in der Regel davon abraten etwas zu nehmen, dass keine Pancake Linsen hat.
