  1. Hi folks. Been away for a while and not using DCS. Can you please tell me has multi threading become the default now or must I still find the special multi threading icon in my folder? Thanks and regards Lee

    Best Hotas

    Hi Folks. I have a significant birthday coming up and my lady wishes to buy me something really nice to mark it. I currently have a Rhino X56 Hotas set up. I'm having difficulty with the very fine control required to do AAR in anything i fly. Is it plain hamfistedness on my part or is there a better setup I can get to facilitate this annoying inability to accomplish AAR? Thanks and regards Lee
  4. QNH is not the same as RPS. QNH and RPS can be different and usually are in my experience. The QNH as you rightly state is where the altimeter reads the airfield altitude AMSL when sat on the airfield. RPS is the setting one would use whilst poling along low level but outside the airfield environs so that everyone flying around VFR iis using the same pressure setting when not relying on Radalt and is a forecast for the whole area. Makes life easier when GA traffic is flying around using quadrantals! Don't imagine the military stuff these days has much use for RPS anymore what with either flying around high level to get somewhere economically or else tearing around low level and just looking outside making sure not to hit the ground or antyhing in the air Transition level as you correctly say is when one changes from QFE/QNH/RPS to the standard setting 1013mb/29.92inches.
  5. Loved it so far.HAven't tried any of the weapon systems as yet, but I have no problems flying it generally and around the circuit using the units of AOA for circuit work and landing. Good module and I expect it will only get better as did the F16.
  6. Got stuck on that too. Redid the align and all was well. Didn't touch anything else controls wise. I had reset the tacan on first try and I think that knocked it out!

    Trees

    I have since checked out images of Ramon and there are no trees growing in the areas on the airfield as I thought there should not be. Although they look good, would you please correct this and on the other bases? Many thanks Lee

    Trees

    Hi Guys. Thanks for a wonderful terrain. I look forward to its development. There is a problem, I don't know if its throughout or just Ramon, but I taxied into a HAS and there was a tree growing through it! There are trees all over the place in what I would have thought would be a clear zone for flight safety purpose as on British airfields. I'm not familiar with any Israeli ones so I don't know if they have trees growing on them. Rgds Lee
  9. Don't know if it's relevant, but I had problems dropping CCRP bombs in level flight. I notice that the release angle is 45 degrees on your SMS. I had the same and bombs wouldn't go, I changed it to 0 from 45 and bombs left the aircraft. I'm sure it's a bug as I thought that setting was for lofting. Rgds

  12. I got error too. Just installed SUFA via OvGME and I thought I'd broken it! Clearly site must be down as I tried to run the stable version and I got a WEBSITE DOWN message.
  13. Birdstrike. Used to happen quite often in the A10 until I disabled birds. No more random engine fires and failures.
  14. I was reading an F16 combat book and read that the guy put a mark point on the end of a runway at an airfield with no approach aids and proceeded to fly a false ILS approach from it using the aircraft systems to simulate the G/S and C/L. Can we do that in DCS please? Thanks

    Al Raqqa

    I'm sure I've asked before but search can't find it so apologies in advance. I have previously had the Al Raqqa campaign installed but couldn't get it to work properly so uninstalled it. Trying again and I've tried all the "usual suspects" locations to put the file into and none of them show up on either my campaigns or mission pages. Please can someone remind me where to put the file for the campaign? I've got all the additional packs installed ok. TIA
  16. Yes thanks, I contacted them and they are very helpful.Was hoping to get one from a UK source to avoid expensive shipping and customs fees.
  17. Looked there, thanks. Very expensive and website says out of stock. Thanks again.
  18. Thanks, already looked there. Most of those on Amazon are TrackNP whick seem to be a cheap Chinese knockoff and the genuine ones are out of stock. The e bay ones that are genuine are WAAAAYYYY overpriced or shipped from the US with about £55 put on top for "extra costs". Thanks for trying Many thanks, I'll look at those.
  19. Hi Folks. I'm having trouble sourcing a genuine Natural Point TrackIR 5. All sources seem to be outof stock. Searching for TrackIR I get plenty of TrackNP which all seem to ship from China and are a lot cheaper. Can anyone suggest an equivalent that is as good please? Quite prepared to wait for the real thing if no equivalent is out there. Thanks in advance.
  20. Hi Folks. Does TrackIR work on F16 please. I ask because it isn't on the list of DCS aircraft so enhanced on their website. Several are and there's no point buying one if the F16 doesn't. Thanks in advance.
