This is what makes me feel conflicted. If there were no trainer aircraft in DCS, I would play fighters in a game way. But DCS provides trainer aircraft, which makes me think that ED wants us to treat simulated flight from the perspective of real life flight. One thing that I am dissatisfied with is that the manual of trainer aircraft in DCS does not provide detailed instructions on how to fly, such as how to turn correctly.I have to find the information myself

The course I mean is seriously learn real-life flight from scratch in a systematic way. Can't agree more. I think trainer aircraft in DCS should provide real life flight courses. I did not buy Kursant campaign, but I think it should not be able to provide real life flight courses I want. You are talking about private purchases, which are a minority. I believe that private purchasers already have a pilot's license, so they will not buy a real Yak-52 to learn to fly. Well,I just gave an example of how to turn. I think I am still far from being able to fly a real plane.

I guess he confused JF-17 with MiG-17F.

Maybe I made a mistake buying a Yak-52 without a real life flight instructor. I'm mainly talking about Yak-52. If there had never been trainer aircraft in DCS, I don't think I would be like this. Since DCS provides trainer aircraft, so I started to think, can I use trainer aircraft in DCS to do what real-life trainer aircraft does, that is, seriously learn real-life flight from scratch in a systematic way, but I failed, there is no real life flight instructor to teach me real life flight. Most DCS players have not received real life flight training, they can't fly airplanes in real life, but they can fly fighter in DCS and even become 'masters'. Many people have played flight simulations for many years but don't know how to turn correctly. The way they turn is just, roll, then pull the stick. They don't know what coordinated flying is. They start flying fighter without even learning how to turn correctly, but in real life, you have to start with trainer aircraft before you can fly a fighter.

JF-17F?What is that

Thanks for the video. I actually have some English flight training manuals, but I'm not a native English speaker and I don't think self-learning is very effective.

I don't know about other games, I'm talking about DCS. ED gave us a trainer aircraft, but didn't offer us real life courses. Imagine you have never learned real life flight and you bought a Yak-52 in real life, but there is no flight instructor to teach you, you have to learn it by yourself.

I am not a real pilot. Buying a Yak-52 won't teach me real life flight. Maybe ED should release a real life flight course bundle with Yak-52.

That's it.It's ironic that the purpose of buying Yak-52 is not to learn how to fly. Agree.

I may not have expressed myself clearly enough.In DCS trainer aircraft, you don't have a detailed aircraft tutorial like in real life, and there is no real life flight instructor to teach you everything about real life flying. There are many people who have played flight simulation for many years and don't know how to turn correctly, they don't know what coordinated flying is. This is missing in DCS, and there is no real life flight teaching in the game manual.Even the best player in DCS, when he starts to learn to fly in real life, he needs to start with a trainer aircraft, and he will still find a lot of knowledge that he has never learned. Of course, you can find a lot of courses about real life flying on the Internet, but this is far from enough. Self-study often cannot achieve the effect of professional teachers. And without the combination of theory and practice, DCS flying cannot replace real life flying. What I want to say is that even though I bought three trainer aircraft in DCS, I still can't fly a plane in real life.No one teaches me real life flight. I could certainly learn by myself, but the effect of self-study is always not as good as that of professional teachers. Even if you learn all the courses of real life flight by yourself and keep training in DCS trainer aircraft, you dare not say that you can fly a plane solo, for example,Yak-52 in real life. I don't know this,thank you! You are concerned about the Yak-52 itself, I am concerned about its function as a trainer. Can't agree more. Yes, I bought them for my collection, my first DCS aircraft were WWII aircraft.I think almost no beginners buy trainer aircraft to get started with DCS.

Please don't talk nonsense,I gave the link.

I think my core idea is that in DCS,a trainer aircraft can't teach you how to fly a plane in real life. You also admit that the Yak-52 is not a qualified trainer aircraft in DCS.I think Yak-52 in real life would not be so boring,because you can use it to learn to fly.This is not an easy task,it is very challenging.

I have C-101,L-39 and Yak-52 in DCS and C-101 is my favourite trainer aircraft.I'm mainly targeting Yak-52.I've barely flown it,I don't know what special things I can do with it except for aerobatics.I have a CEII and I use it to cross tunnels. I don't deny that you will learn faster, but this shows a problem,DCS can't replace real life flight.You need to start from trainer aircraft in real life.That means the trainer aircraft in DCS can't achieve its purpose as a trainer aircraft.

In real life,you have to start with a trainer aircraft,but in DCS,you can start directly with a fighter.In real life,a trainer aircraft can teach you how to fly a plane.But in DCS, a trainer aircraft can't teach you how to fly a plane in real life.Even the best player in DCS,when he starts to learn to fly a plane in real life,he still needs to start from scratch,that is,from a trainer aircraft.So trainer aircraft in DCS is useless?Other trainer aircraft are okay,they can engage targets,but Yak-52 has no weapons.You may be able to do some aerobatics,but its playability is too low.I can't help but doubt the meaning of trainer aircraft in DCS.It can't achieve its purpose as a trainer aircraft.Is it because virtual pilots lack real flight instructors and formal flight teaching?Or is it that learning to fly must be in real life,and the simulation in the game is not completely real,such as aircraft aerodynamics,weather,wind,g-force,your senses,etc.

Clipped-wing Corsair!Then we need British carrier

ED said in the latest news that OctopusG is still adjusting the flight model and damage model of La-7,and said ED looks forward to making it available later this year.This is really confusing.I seriously suspect that ED is deliberately delaying the release of La-7.I think La-7 could be released as early as 2023.I guess F4U is also deliberately delayed by ED.I think F4U could be released as early as 2021.Magnitude 3 said in 2020 Christmas update Starting with F4U-1D Corsair, we are happy to report that the module is in its final stages of development. https://magnitude-3.com/2020/12/22/christmas-update/

You are right,it seems that A-7E has become another M3 Corsair.And unlike M3,FlyingIron has not released any DCS modules yet,FlyingIron mentioned more than once that developing DCS modules is challenging,so I am not optimistic about it.

I haven't noticed any changes.

I don't have enough hard drive space. The price of FC F-15C is the same as Su-25.

We poor Steam users are being ignored.

I don't think it's a big problem. I think the audience of FC and FF don't overlap much, and I think most people come to DCS to play FF modules rather than FC. There is no precedent for this, and there is no upgrade available for Afghanistan and Iraq that would upgrade partial maps to full maps.

ED forum A-10A 2.3k posts MiG-29 5.3k posts Su-25 3.9k posts F-15C 15k posts Su-27 14.9k posts Su-33 3.1k posts You inspired me. Maybe Su-25T affected the sales of Su-25.

If ED can make Su-25 free,why not F-15C or Su-27?Their prices are the same.I think F-15C and Su-27 are more suitable for beginners and can attract more new players to DCS.

I'm not as generous as you.

I guess those who are against me have never bought Su-25. I have never bought a module at full price.
