Hello
I'm trying this mission with the A-10CII, latest version of DCS. I did this a few years back in the old version and I can't recall having any problems then. Now however, when the left hyd system fails, the plane pitches up rapidly and in most cases goes into a flat spin which I'm unable to recover from. I looked at the video by Recon Stewart, and in that case the aircraft remains more or less stable. I've checked my controls and adjusted the null zone, so there should not be an issue there. In one instance I managed to recover, but while maneuvering for the airport, the aircraft suddenly pitches down and I'm unable to recover.
I do not have the issue with the flapping ailerons, they remain stable. What I've tried is to both click the manual reversion and flap retract switch at once, and also tried to delay it while I try to recover, and the result is the same. I also tried to trim forward a bit so that I have fly with some backpressure, but it made no difference. I also tried to recrate the scenario in a random flight by switching to manual reversion. In that case I was able to fly the plane, but it will eventually pitch down and crash (that might be a bug with the flight model?)
Has anyone successfully done this mission with the new version of the A-10?
