  1. Where does it get stuck? On your last locked target, on your current steerpoint, in snowplow, or somewhere else?
  2. I asked once before and HB said they are just different ways to write the same thing. So M, MB, MBP, etc all mean the same thing.
  3. Many functions have several bindings to choose from. Usually there is one that behaves like you're describing (momentary while pressed) and another that toggles once per press. I think sometimes the momentary bindings are erroneously labeled as toggles.
  4. Thought so, I was just confused by the minus sign.
  5. Is that pitch down trim?
  6. What? Like with the roll axis?
  7. Yes, that's always the first thing I post when people are having trouble with SPI or designating targets with the TGP. It's definitely not obvious.
  8. Outside air temperature? I didn't record it, but it was on the Hoggit training Caucasus server so probably close to standard.
  9. I flew like this the other day too. I lost the rudder and all the moving surfaces on the left wing. I was able to stabilize the aircraft and land using full right stick and a little right rudder.
  10. At Saipan airport, the big flood lights next to the terminal have corresponding areas of the tarmac that appear to be illuminated. However, upon closer inspection the lights are not light sources, but just bright textures applied to semi-transparent polygons, and the ground illumination is just a texture. Aircraft that enter this area are not illuminated.
  11. I noticed the engine sound and pressure ratio have a noticeable oscillation when the throttle is in the flight idle detent or slightly above it. I have only noticed it during taxi. My friend even heard it while watching me in an external view on a multiplayer server. Anybody else?
  12. I'm not really sure. A higher resolution display obviously. But aside from that, maybe anti-aliasing?
  13. That's called the Moire effect and is a result of spatial aliasing. It occurs when your screen resolution is too low for the texture it's trying to display.
  14. Is that a drift rate assuming unaided INS? With GPS aiding the system should be long term stable, as if the effective drift rate were near zero.
  15. What does this mean? I haven't played the new patch yet.
  16. See Chuck's Guide, page 59. https://www.mudspike.com/chucks-guides-dcs-f-16c-viper/
  17. Weight alone causes more drag because of induced drag, even if the pylons were completely dragless themselves. The jet needs to make more lift, which needs a higher angle of attack, which adds induced drag.
  18. Haha, I love that image. "Spurts, kiddo, what's your favorite airplane?" 6 year old Spurts: "I love the Viper for the visibility out the canopy and the simplicity of its HOTAS!"
  19. Can you share the mission file?
  20. Do you have fuel in the jet?
  21. I successfully cold started the Sabre last night on Marianas and flew around. Are you waiting for the proper RPM before moving the throttle in two steps from cutoff to idle, etc?
  22. @Frederf What is the real life difference between auto and manual?
  23. Why? There are tons and tons of examples of hardware and software with version upgrades and variants.
  24. Maybe I missed something. Why would you want to control the Viggen with the radar stick?
  25. Do own the Viggen? If not, you should give it a try.
