While flying the Mig I noticed a small lever on the top left corner of the fuel gauge what if you put it in opt will it like a fmc generate me an optimum altitude and engine rpm or whatever, so can a mig 29 expert tell me what the hell is it

Those places are so beautiful! You are doing such a great job!!!!

Sorry, that was meant as a joke, because there really are a lot of buttons you have to press before the thing finally takes off. (I'll work on my sense of humor...)

You are tapping your “consent to fire” button to add targets in the list to the queue? Are you able to do both a short tap and a long hold on your “consent to fire” button when the focus is on the main controls, not the list?

Hey @Dentedend10, Thank you for your feedback. At least you saved some tax payers money with bringing back the sidewinder. When calling out for the second bandit group, the BRAA is only a rough direction. So, depending on where your are at that moment it can be a bit incorrect. The AI Awacs is not able to see them because they are to quite low. You have to utilize your radar to find them, talk to jester to seach on low altitude. Then you should find them if you fly to the general direction where the bandits were called. But, these two bandits are more like bonus to complete the mission only the mig-23 are relevant. So good job!

That’s the mindset! Much appreciated!

Awesome! Experiencing History has never been so beautiful.

Has anyone come up with a good fix for the trigger? I've seen maybe one video about gluing a spring to the board, but I'm interested if anyone has done anything over the last couple years to improve their trigger?

Just checked HB discord developer channel for the latest update about the A-6 AI update, and no status for F-14x yet...

Hi, I did try the plane on some multiplayer servers and have found, that a lot of mission briefings and descriptions contain custom frequencies to dial in, but not the channels to which these frequencies are bound on the R-682. Is there a possibility to get a page on the kneeboard which contains a table of the channels with their set frequencies? regards, FF

Hi fighters We continue the overview of the update "Normandy 2.0". After Paris, it's time for London! Today we will show new original places of the capital of Great Britain, which will become for you not just a beautiful background, but important historical landmarks and a source of inspiration for new missions. The mention of London is always intertwined with the weather, politics and football. Today is no exception. Stamford Bridge (Chelsea Arena) During World War II, Stamford Bridge experienced German bombing and was the site of a historic 1945 friendly match between Chelsea and the Soviet club FC Dynamo Moscow, attracting an estimated crowd of over 100,000 people in a celebration of Allied solidarity after the war. The song Kalinka was sung here long before the 2000s Chelsea Bridge A suspension bridge across the Thames connecting Chelsea and Battersea. Highbury Stadium Arsenal football club stadium, its home from 1913 to 2006. During World War II, Highbury Stadium was used as an Air Raid Precautions center Royal Albert Hall One of the most prestigious concert halls in the world. It is distinguished by a huge glass and forged dome roof, which was innovative for its time. Its basement corridors served as bomb shelters. Royal Hospital Chelsea Established by decree of Charles II in Chelsea in December 1681, in the image and likeness of the Paris Home for the Invalids (you can compare). The Royal Hospital has endured significant challenges, particularly during the two World Wars. The North-Eastern wing was also seriously damaged by a V2 rocket in 1945. StMartin-in-the-Fields is a Church of England parish church at the north-east corner of Trafalgar Square. Spire height 59 m Times Building Home for The Times is a British daily national newspaper. The historic Printing House Square was the center of London's newspaper district. Wembley Stadium Also known as Empire Stadium, it was opened in 1923 and lasted exactly 80 years During the war, it was used for various military purposes. The stadium functioned as a warehouse for postal items, and the civil defense department was located in its premises. EXTRA:

Being that I use a motion rig..it should not pitch me up and down when trimming lol. Hope its dialed down soon

Anyone have a suggested binding Pic for the full fidelity 29 like chuck does?

Здравствуйте, подскажите в чём разница в режим закрылков взлёт, и посадка, визуально нет никакой разницы, те же углы.

Here is the original thread I created in 2023.

Hi, For quite some time I'm having an issue with George AI helper from the pilot seat. Somehow I can't get George to multi select targets, it never has worked, that is for me. I have the TM Warthog HOTAS. Anyone having similar issues?

This is not true. The difference is quite obvious I doubt it. The R-27 family of missiles are produced in Ukraine. Ukraine also has a full repair and modernization cycle for the MiG-29. Here is a diagram of the modularity of the R-27 missiles from the Artem company: MU1: Increased detection range of air targets up to 100 km. Expanding the capabilities for monitoring and recording functional parameters of the technical condition of the aircraft, engine and a number of onboard systems, etc. Satellite navigation New radar receiver unit increases total operating time to 20,000 hours A new radio station with a wider frequency range Increased combat effectiveness thanks to the new R-27ER1, ET1, EP1 MU2 - Includes the entire list of MU1 modifications and adds: The ability to launch air-to-surface guided missiles (at least the Kh-29T was pictured during combat testing) The ability to launch guided aerial bombs (at least in the photo from combat tests there was a KAB-500KR) Fire control system modernization New onboard integrated navigation and landing equipment New defense system "Omut" Adaptation for the use of "Western" helmets and oxygen masks

Mig29 can carry only one fuel tank (central position)...
