Thats a shame that such similar campaigns came out at the same time. I’d love to see an mi-8 campaign in Syria, there’s so many fantastic helipads everywhere along with amazing landmarks.

Yeah you’d have to leave the channel map out because that’s EDs product, but having Berlin and London in the same map would be amazing, especially if it covered the bodenplatte airfields. Idk how it would go with the curvature of the earth being made flat for such a vast distance. Hopefully it would be easy to use the CW German landmarks and mesh and add a liberal amount of rubble across the cities. I’d certainly pay for a Normandy 3.

Hey it’s a bit expensive but a time saver, here’s the knobs found all over the cockpit if anyone is interested. He said he had 100. https://ebay.us/m/h2JLiJ

Also, does anyone know the answer to this? If you needed to eject, do you have to pull both levers or just one?

Great work. I guess all I have to do is add 5mm on either side of the seat which probably wouldn't bee too much of an issue when lining it up in VR anyway! Or should I leave it the same as the dcs dimensions, so that everything else lines up? I'm quite stoked it's actually so close to reality.

Damn that outside looks incredible. It's a shame they didn't spend an equal amount of effort on the inside that we see 99 percent of the time.

Many thanks for all the measurements. I think the U2 is practically just a Starfighter with glider wings and no burner so I'm not surprised it used a similar throttle! Now I'm imagining flying a Starfighter with a yoke

You would think the orange grid would have been a low hanging fruit to fix

@Ala12Rv-Tundra I'll send you a dm with the fusion file or get you to draw me what you need on a picture

I don't think they changed any of the 3d dimensions to reflect the real dzus measurements or instrument sizes. Its more just a texture and detail update rather on the old bones. However after mucking around with the F-16 model over the past week with irl measurments and the P-47 blueprints before that, I realise that nothing is accurate and it's not worth getting upset on the internet about it. Everything is just good enough to look ok and thats fine. I am saddened that the files are locked out modelviewer. It's a great resource when making sim pits or panels for DCS. At least in this case we can use the old f-5 model but I fear for the access for future modules. I'd love to potter around the mig-29 cockpit when it comes.

Yeah, I think they encrypted the files so we can see them in Modelviewer so now we cant use it to make sim pits? I can't open this edce file. Damn that landing gear handle looks like frozen dog water

As for the mechanics, I prototyped something the other day that uses a hall sensor and a flange bearing. You just need a 19mm drill bit for some aluminum. It jitters a bit so I'm hoping a capacitor I'm getting delivered fixes that

Hey is that circumference of the grip right? Or is that the radius or diameter? Because if its the circumference then the radius is only 7mm and I feel like thats not girthy enough Edit: I just assumed it was diameter I'm bodging my way through this because I havent learned forms in CAD from youtube yet, maybe I'll look back and laugh in a years time. Are you able to tell me the radius from the centre of the buttons to the edges too please? And also the angle from directly above?

@jocko417 Thankyou!! In order to make it easier I labelled them. It doesn't matter if you use american units, fusion will change them for me. Also are you able to measure the circumference of the base of the grip for me? Heres a template to make it easier for you to help me: Circumference = A= degrees B= degrees C= D= E= F= G= H=
