EDIT: Removed that garbled mess of a post. Unchecking "Show hints at mission start" and "control helper" resolved the issue for me.

Open \DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\Mi-24P\Input\Mi_24P_pilot\joystick/Default.lua Anywhere after. "join(res.axisCommands, {" and before the closing "})" add in: {action = ecs_commands.Sealing_valve, cockpit_device_id=devices.ECS_INTERFACE, name=_('ECS Valve Axis'), category=_('Custom')}, After binding to an axis, use the following settings: NOTE: The invert option, is user preference. Saturation is lowered to 50, as the binding only uses 50% of the given axis.

Or antlers, or chrome, or a tape deck.

Yeah, the small "+" signs are even in the default HUD_Elements.tga file.

Any input would be appreciated (not bright enough, ladder too thin, etc.). It's just a bunch of vectors in a .psp file, so adjustments are easy, now that everything is in place. Long Story short, I wanted the HUD to appear a little more crisp in my VR headset, so:

JESTER reporting improvements: JESTER is now more selective in reporting incoming missiles, and he will ignore the missiles that don’t look like potential threats.

I'm not sure how in-depth ice conditions are modeled for the F-14, but here is some of what I dug up from NATOPS: Possible Scenarios: Altimeter and Mach airspeed indicators are erroneous, pitot pressure, static pressure, and total temperature inputs to the central air data computer be inaccurate. ~NATOPS F-14B 14.2 Ice may form on inlet and ramp surfaces without any other visual indications, which may cause compressor stalls and/or FOD. ~NATOPS F-14B 14.5.11.2 Icing conditions can cause heavy ice accumulation in the inlet ramp areas or on engine probes and the compressor face. Aircraft maneuvers and arrested landings may dislodge this accumulation and cause extensive engine FOD or failure. A straight-in field landing is preferred. Minimum power setting after landing is recommended. ~NATOPS F-14B 18.1.1 Carefully monitor rpm and EGT indications. A reduction of rpm or an increase in EGT accompanied by a loss of thrust is an indication of engine icing. ~NATOPS F-14B 18.1.1 NOTE: Pitot-static system failures caused by icing may input an erroneous Mach number to the air inlet control system programmer, which will result in the ramps being in the wrong position for the actual Mach number (engine stall may result). ~NATOPS F-14B 14.2 (Preflight) Snow, ice, and frost on the aircraft surface are a major flight hazard. The result of this condition is a loss of lift and increased stall speeds. ~NATOPS F-14B 18.4.1 NATOPS talks about icing, and the possible effects on instruments, flight performance, and FOD in a few different sections...

Yeah, I actually sat down and read the entire F-14B NATOPS manual (excluding some stuff that HB didn't model into the game). Learned quite a bit, and even discovered a few quirks the plane has. Sadly enough, I enjoyed reading it.

This right here. The negative AOA "The F-14 exhibits positive dihedral effect throughout the positive AOA envelope (tending to roll away from sideslip), but negative dihedral effect at negative AOA." ~F-14B NATOPS 11.5.2 Dihedral Effect "At negative AOA, dihedral effect is negative such that a right rudder input will produce a left roll." ~F-14B NATOPS 11.5.2 Dihedral Effect

Just received my invoice for the #2 control panel. Keep an eye out, if you ordered one.

Thank you, for that. Just e-mailed the CAD file for a reply with a quote, and then it's on to fabrication.

Anyone with a pair of Virpil pedals able to check, or happen to know the bolt diameter, of the four bolts shown below (not worried about the highlighted nuts/washers)? There's a local company who does CNC work, and I plan on sending them a CAD with the required dimensions. The aluminum plate will bolt to my Monstertech pit, and the rudder pedals will bolt to the plate.

I was able to track these numbers down from the blue sticker, in the first picture I linked: MFG SKU CAGE Manufacturer 719-7407 81579 Mason Electric Company A55C9000-17 26512 Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation Grip Assembly, Controller, Aircraft: https://www.parttarget.com/1680-01-411-3386_1680014113386_719-7407.html/-D4A2F537-7ABF-496B-BE1E-A619819FAE69 -

No clue. It's just info/pics, I was able to grab off of the web. -
