Hello CVW_1, I have been flying DCS for some time now and I'm looking to join a squadron. As my screen name and logo applies, I served in the US Navy for 20 years. In those 20 years i was in several legacy F/A-18C squadrons. I hope we can chat and if I fit into your Air Wing I would like to give it a go. Thank you.

I just purchased the HP Reverb VR headset and now when I fly missions the cockpit is flooded with light. I was told that the setting were to high and that was causing the overall lightness when I'm in the cockpit. The issue is I do not know where to go to reduce the lighting for the VR headset. I've tried searching in Window Mixed reality and in Steam VR to reduce the lighting just to the point I can see at night with out having to us NVG mode. Can anyone help me with this issue. During daytime flights everything is so bright and at night its like looking out the cockpit through a hazy view. OrdMan87

oh, i didn't. thank you for your input. I never thought about the nose wheel steering being an issue. I will wait to engage NWS until i'm well below acceptable speed.

I think it has to do with the landing gear. I can remember watching F/A-18's hit the deck and bounce all over the deck just as the arresting gear kicked in and stopped them. The landing gear is real beefy with not alot of give.

Thank you all fro replying to my post. I will check all my bindings and re-calibrate my hotas system. I was in 5 different F/A-18 squadrons during my 20 years and DCS has modeled the F/A-18 as close to the real thing.

Hello fellow F/A-18 flyers. I am new to DCS and to the forum so here goes. i am having control issues when I land that I didn't have before 2.5.6 came out. Once I touch down my A/C wants to make a bee line to the edge of the runway and go offroading. I have to steer the A/C severally and apply brakes intermittently to come to a stable stop. It doesn't matter which airfield or map i land at. Has anyone else have this issue? thanks for any thoughts or suggestions... OrdMan87
