When pushing the O2 test button, the needle rotates to and through Empty as it should. But when releasing the switch, the needle keeps rotating to the left and the caution light remains going on and off. I noticed that it only shows this fault when the Oxygen regulator supply lever is on. When the Oxygen regulator is OFF, and the restbutton is then pushed and released..it operates normally. Regards

Is there any information about the faulty Airspeed indication of the Chinook? It is a Basic but very important aircraft function i think. Why does it take so long to fix it ? Would be great if the Dev's could tell that they acknolege the bug and gave the reason for the delay of fixing it. Regards

TrimTabs of Aileron and Rudder visually move the wrong way.

Nice.. -
Contrail direction influenced by wind, is not okay !

At the moment the Corsair trimtabs push the rudder and aileron into the wrong direction. Elevator trim is Okay. Thats why I started this as a Bug. Regards -
For what it's worth. My experience with the flight model after a few flights is good. I definately needed curves of about 30 on all three axis, but now it feels convincing. The torque effect of the prop is a bit snappy with throttle I find. You would expect it to be more lagging, but...im not a corsair pilot. Now i'm learning to anticipate with rudder, I got it under control ..mostly. The aircraft is a hand and feet full, but as I understand it, that was the case in real life. I surely hope that realism of the flightprofile remains the goal and there is no tuning down to make it unrealisicly easy. Great first release, great machine. Regards

Nope, the servo tab movement seems to be okay. When the ailorons deflect they visually assist in the movement an would reduce the force needed on the control stick. Seems allwright to me. But the trimtabs movement is wrong. John -
Why not. I cant find any explanation of the mechanics connecting the Ailerons with the control stick. So that is why i'm interested. At the moment I'm puzzled . Can you give me a hind.. Grazias.. John
-
With folded wings, the Ailerons are movable, with input from stick. I thought the mecanical connection is only made with the wings spread. I could be wrong though.. Regards

Okay "Ironhand", thanks for the link to "contrails not moving" from 777coletrain. That link gives a far more clear and correct discription of the bug. The discripion of the bug in that link is mentioned to the team, by "bignewy". Hope it can be fixed in the close future. Regards -
I did post about this bug about 10 years ago (and a rescent one in "clouds and weather"), but your observation and explanation is better. I first thought that the Smoke and contrails were blown away by a sidewind relative to the Aircraft, but after your post I dubbel checked and you are Correct. The contrails and smoke are not effected by the moving Air volume after leaving the tailpipe as they should. Would be great to hear from the Dev's on this and what their conclusion is. regards

Just my way of trying to be extra clear about what i mean this time. I was amazed that this bug is still present after i posted, and discussed this more then 10 years ago ! It should be high on the list of correct basic flight simulation in my opinion. It isn't. It is not realistically simulated at the moment ! You are speaking for the entire DCS Community it seems, but I am just trying to help this (Almost) Perfect Flightsim become better by delivering my personal Input. Then again, my text was a bit to loud, I agree (did adjust it). Regards. # Ironhand: Thanks, I will look in to that post too
