If you set the radar altimeter below 0, the signal is OFF, so you should still be able to use the ALT RDR mode. The manual says invalid, so maybe it is a bug ?

Hi, When the ALT switch of the HUD control panel selected in RDR and if I select the needle of the radar altimeter below 0 to avoid altitude warning, only the barometric altitude is displayed on the HUD. According to the flight manual § 2.12.5.4.7, this happening when the radar signal become invalid. Is the HUD display is correct or is it a bug ? Thanks, Vincent

Hi, I have reported this issue on the F-5 forum (Before the F-18 was available). Wintip vertices was appearing on taxi at very low speed. Vincent

Hi, There is no option to command the wingman to refuel. Should be interesting as the early access is more convenient for training than complex missions. Thanks, Vincent

Hi, Maybe a stupid question, but I can find the answer. What are the CASE I, II and III ? What are the differences ? Thanks, Vincent

Thanks for the quick answer. Vincent

Hi, Anyone try to connect to the KC-135BDA ? Maybe there is a bug or it is only not possible. I can connect to the S-3B, but not this one. Thanks, Vincent

Hi Wags, I have tried the training mission, and create also a simple mission to try. Only the VOR can be use with the ADF system. NDB frequencies are not working apparently. Thanks, Vincent

Hi, Apparently, the ADF is not working properly. I have followed the manual, the Episode 5 video, but the ADF information is still not working. - I have set the Dubai NDB frequency 265, but no reception (Within the frequency range according to the maunal. I can set 112.3 (Sharjah), and it works (Not specified in the manual) I have tried on the 3 maps, and have the same issue. - If I set an NDB frequency and change for another one, the previous frequency remain displayed (Even with a clear on the UFC). Thanks for the F/A-18, Vincent

Hi, Probably the best aircraft for sim : - AA capabilities - AG capabilities - Air refuelling - Naval ops The level of realism is so amazing that we are going to fly this aircraft for years! ED should focuse on ops theatres if they still want to make money !:lol: Cheers

Hi, 15h30 local belgian time (UTC+2), nothing yet. Can't wait any longer!!! :music_whistling:

Is someone know the location of those firing ranges? It is for mission building purpose.

Hi, First, thanks for the new map, I can't wait flying on it. Is there any firing range in the area ? Thanks, Vincent

F-16, but he made some flight on the backseat of the 2000 in real life.

I have exactly the same feeling. I have tried with different configuration, it is better with some load, but must still improved on this point. One of my colleague, a former F-16 pilot, have the same feeling. He tried also Falcon BMS and was impressed by the FM.

Completely agree with you. Anyway, the air is compressible and there will some effect of this compressibility even with the FBW. There should be an very light effect of the roll in the FM, it would be more "natural". Personnaly, I no longer have the pleasure to fly this fantastic aircraft, but I will make some more test with some weapons and tank. Cheers,

Hi, Saying that I am trolling you it's the exactly the same that ignoring the basics of aerodynamics! In demo, the pilot compensate the moment effect by crossing the flight controls : in example stick to the right to start the roll and quick stick to the left to stop instantaneously to roll, and I did the same when I was flying the Extra 300. So a demo cannot be a reference. I persist : an aircraft is not flying like that, it is not realistic! Try some roll maneuver in the F-5 and you will see. FBW improve the maneuvrability but does not cancel the aerodynamics effect!

There is no need to compare the stick position and the aircraft movement, this is just aerodynamically how an aircraft is moving in the air. Look at this one, at the very beginning when the aircraft is rlling on the right (I thing the pilot is not using the full deflection of its stick) : https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=mirage+2000+HUD Clearly, the aircraft does not stop rolling suddently. On this one, from 3:52, it is quite evident too :

I don't want the M2000 FM to look like the 777, that's not the point. If you have the F-5, when you release the control in roll for example, the aircraft take 0.5 seconds, even less to stabilize. That should be the same with any aircraft, proportinally to its design and flight control system. The M2000 just stop suddenly to roll when you release the controls. This is not how an aircraft is flying, simply. Just look at some cockpit footage of some M2000 in demo, and you will see. Cheers,

Hi, I quite disappointed by the flight model change. From 200 knots, there is no damping anymore and the aircraft seems to fly a simple flight model (or like a train)! I am not a fighter pilot, but I am flying civilian aircraft, 777 and 737. Having flying the 777 with electronic flight control, there is always a quite few damping effect (I mean, when releasing the flight control, the aircraft take few time to stop the induced mouvement), because an aircraft just fly in the air. This is exactly the opposite in the latest M2000 flight model change. I understand that a public flight simulator cannot reproduce exactly a real flight model, but I have corrected a lot of flight model in FS9 and X, P3D and X-Plane. Adding some damping effect in flight controls give a real sensation of flying. So, please, correct that for the next time. Thanks, Vincent

Hi, Finally, everything seems ok. I removed the mod from the DCS folder to only keep the one in User\ and the mod appears. Apparently, there is a conflict keeping the mode in DCS folder. Thanks a lot and have a good flights, Vincent

I konw it is extremely simple, but it is not working, and I don't know why. See the attached file showing my folders. Vincent

Thanks, but still not working. To resume : 1. I installed the mod in win\saved game\... for the 1.5 version : it works 2. Copy and paste the mod in win\saved game\... for the 2.1.1 version : NOT working 3. Create the folder DCS.openalpha in default\saved games\... and install the mod : NOT working 4. Create the folder DCS.openalpha in default\saved games\... and install the mod in CoreMod : NOT working Really, I am not a expert in this type of installation and I have no idea where the problem is. Any idea ? Thanks

Hi, I have dowloaded the latest 476th objects dated from 14 august, and follow the instructions, but I still have a problem. On mission editor, I can see the object with the 1.5 openbeta, but nothing appears on mission editor with the 2.2 openalpha ! Both are in same folder, respectively for each version. What could be the problem ? Thanks, Vincent

I am using the classical FAB-100, not the OFAB.
