I knew this project, but thanks very much for the link. cheers!

For jet fighter: F15C or F15E

Dude, drop 2 GBU-10 at the power plant of the city, it should cut off the city's electricity supply. Just kidding, I don't think turning off the city's light is possible at current stage, but it would be nice if ED could add some dynamics like this. Especially with regional power supply.

Am I running DCS 2.7 ? (Help a noob out)
Jenson replied to Sangwiches's topic in Weather System Bugs & Problems
if you checked "Enable VR Headset" box in the VR option, the game will always launch in VR mode even if you disconnect your VR headset from your PC. -
hi Kirkbauer, Make sure when you use datalink, need to select the correct station number (where the walleye is loaded), after walleye is released, use TDC depress plus TDC directions to control the weapon’s TV camera view, the weapon’s TV will attempt to lock on a solid target around the camera’s center. Tips: 1. Try not over-control the camera view, but smoothly adjust it. 2. If the target is not easily distinguishable on your datalink display, use contrast knob of the DDI to adjust its contrast for a better view.

Check the L ARM indicator on the up section of the HUD, that's very helpful

In the supercarrier cold start mission, I've removed external tanks for all the AI aircrafts, and they are able to survive from crashing into the sea now, although still struggle. I didn't check the weight but I guess less than 43k lbs.
-
I've got the same "issue" of not able to read AMPCD symbols well when enabling map in the background, even if I have turned up contrast to 9. BTW I'm flying with VR, the green color are too close to the map color.

Thanks Minsky, this is absolutely a great work! -
FLOLS overlay shows even if option unticked in settings
Jenson replied to Sharkku's topic in Bugs and Problems
bug still persists, every time i need to open option window after entering the cockpit, check and uncheck the box to make it disappear. -
Sorry I think I might be wrong after a reconsideration, without a proper trim or manual pitch input, the aircraft is unlikely able to achieve on-speed AOA in the first place. However in the original statement, My thinking was that without trim or manual pitch up, the aircraft needs a higher speed to provide enough lift at a 8.1 degree AOA.
-
If you don't trim, your approaching speed at on speed AOA will be higher than when you properly trimmed. That will cause problem especially when landing on a carrier. Basically when you land, you don't give any pitch input but only adjust your throttle and bank input, this is not viable if not properly trimmed,
-
Guess now this is no longer an issue as ED just updated HMD test and alignment.

ECM to REC, Dispenser/EW mode set to Man 1 after airborne. For different mission type, DDI selection can be quite different and it needs to change during the mission progress. There isn't a standard yet generally speaking, when you start to engage (just my opinion): 1. A/A Fighter sweep: LDDI AZ/EL, RDDI A/A Radar, AMPCD SA. 2. A/A Interception/Recon: LDDI FLIR, RDDI A/A Radar, AMPCD SA. 3. A/G unguided: LDDI Store, RDDI A/G Radar, AMPCD SA. 4. A/G rocket: LDDI FLIR, RDDI HSI, AMPCD SA. 5. A/G GPS guided: LDDI JDM DISPLAY, RDDI HSI, AMPCD SA. 5. A/G Laser guided: LDDI Store, RDDI FLIR, AMPCD SA. 6. A/G SEAD: LDDI EW, RDDI HARM Display, AMPCD SA.

Now I checked Hear like in Helmet box, much better.
-
Thanks mate!
-
I think HRM OVRD was unboxed.
-
Yes there is, you can set it up in the controls
-
I would vote for this option, I also like the old sound. I could hear the new sound over canopy when on deck too.

This morning I was doing some SEAD training with hornet. I was sure that I followed all correct procedure but still failed to lock (handoff) a radar emitter in TOO mode. After tried many times, I decided to record a track to expose this "bug", so I started over and trying to show that I couldn't lock the SAM radar even though I have pressed cage/uncage button for several times. In the end, I suddenly realized that I forgot to set the HARM display DDI as the SOI, and I successfully destroyed the last SAM site with TOO mode. Anyway as I had saved the track, I would like to attached it here to expose my "stupidity". Yet, I have another question I found during the mission. As I select PB mode and entered the radar code, designated the target location, on the top left corner of display, the "HARM" word is boxed (and not crossed out) and shows "RDY" below. Then if I change to TOO mode, the HARM is still boxed along with the "RDY" even though the seeker hasn't locked any radar emitter yet, shouldn't the "HARM" word being crossed out if no radar emitter locked in TOO mode? Or the HARM will always be ready if we have set up the PB mode data? FA18C SEAD Mission.trk

Is the F-18 module a good start for a complete newbie?
Jenson replied to eydlehoms49's topic in DCS: F/A-18C
for starter, you can try F15C first (FC3 model) for fun and aviation basics, but if you prefer full simulation, get a hornet without doubt. -
Same issue here, I can imagine the AI pilot's frustration.
-
I recalled 120C can be shot beyond 35nm at 40k feet, 1 mach speed.
-
I have the same question too. Thanks Vox.
-
Yes, thanks. I mean before entering the groove, I wouldn't know if my turn is too big or small, it's purely based on experience by taking glances at the carrier and judge how should I adjust my bank angle. I know I could also check HSI, TACN, bearing etc. to assist me to tell where I'm at the moment, yet usually i'll just focus on HUD trying to keep the bank angle, velocity vector at the right position, after entering the 2nd 90° of baseleg, i will start to peek at the carrier and adjust my bank angle, however, sometimes I still end up either left or right of the central line when i enter the groove at 0.7nm behind the stern. I guess I should practice more to improve but I'm just thinking that a virtual glide path could help novice to learn faster. I know Bankler's case i trainer (and it's standards) but I didn't use it. Also thanks for letting me know Tomcat case i training green gate thing, that's something I meant with the virtual glide path.
