I had the same issue start about 1 week ago, 4-1 error no matter what. I found a fix for me, hope it works for you too: 1.) lower left search bar, search "USB" 2.) click on "USB settings" 3.) top left, "bluetooth and other devices" 4.) In there you should either find your headset, or an error item, which is your headset (unrecognized) 5.) right click you headset and delete (remove device). Then plug and unplug you usb again to force it to re-install. Let me know if this works for you! GL

I can only speak from a layman gamer perspective, but in most dogfight servers (slick + 70-80% fuel) the best sustained speed is around 400-440 on the deck, higher up (say, 15k ft+) it's around 450-550. When the default bingo warning (2000lbs or so) goes, your jet is lighter and the best sustained speed falls to around 380 on the deck (maybe as a lower bound). There's a good range of speeds where the 16 turns well, and from my experience that's 380-480 in general, hope that helps.

I believe this might be the appropriate place to put this: One thing that would be really cool for us BFM lovers is having a life vector marker on the canopy of the f16, something that can be changed via the special settings menu would be a dream come true. I'm not sure about whether the real block 50 vipers ever had them though.

A few tips that might help in current version of DCS: 1.) You have a significant acceleration advantage over the 14, especially when the 14 gets slow, spreads wings (and possibly deploys flaps). So get the 14 slow, unload your jet to get speed for a brief few seconds, then start a climb. Keep nose up until you see the 14 drop its nose, now come over the top for a shot. 2.) If the 14 gets on your 6, don't just keep turning. Unload jet, fly straight (or nose down) to get speed and build the separation between you and the 14. Climb once you get to a comfortable speed (say, 550+), invert and split-S back into the 14 (I pull the brakes and idle the engine as I do this for more instantaneous turn and also to collapse my turn circle, as I start the split-S at around 550+ knots). Done right, this should help you even up the fight and recover your lost angles (or force an overshoot). You will have to experiment a bit with the distance to properly execute it. But extending and re-committing is crucial to the current f6 in terms of guns only BFM. The current 16 is pretty bad in guns only BFM, but with a bit of persistence and know how, it can still win fights (sometimes).
