  1. Likely performing accurately. IRL gun pods of this type and era were wildly inaccurate and used mainly as area weapons fir strafing large swaths of ground, for example prepping HLZ’s ahead of heli born assaults.
  2. IFR is just a task, and it doesn't make an aircraft more difficult to fly. All it does is show you how poorly you were flying the aircraft before you started your hood training and the tolerances for sloppy flying dropped to about 1/10th. That is from real life experience as well.
  3. Yeah that's the Stability Augmentation System (SAS). The helicopter is very difficult to fly without the SAS channels on. https://aviation-assets.info/wp-content/uploads/tm1-1520-237-10-operators-manual-for-uh-60al.pdf In fact, in section 9-29 you can see that while failure of the SAS individually is not a LAND AS SOON AS PRACTICABLE emergency, failures of associated equipment (particularly FPS) are not compatible with mission success. Once, back in '06 at Ft. Bragg when I was training a Shadow platoon, someone said that the Blackhawk is the helicopter for helicopter pilots who suck at flying helicopters. 18 years later I'm still laughing at that line.
  4. Interesting. In my limited helicopter sim experience, a locked tail wheel (and shyte technique) causes me a lot of ... not really dynamic rollovers, but unintentional reverse-wheelbarrow rolling action that I have to full-armpit abort out of to fix. I'll work on it. Thanks!
  5. Make sure your tailwheel is unlocked as well. People don't think it's important but it is.
  6. How? The bug report isn't for you.
  7. Asked on Discord. I'll ask here as well Good morning (here). Not sure if I have an issue or not. Was flying the UH60L on Grayflag yesterday and the little dot on the SRS no longer follows the XMIT select knob in cockpit. Is this just me or is there a larger issue? And what would be the fix if known? I believe this has been since the last few DCS updates.
  8. Not 2.9 related it's been going on for a month or so Spawn in multiplayer Grayflag servers, Teddy or Zippo aircraft acts like it's getting bumped and jostled plane captains give the Hey what are you doing because there's enough movement during reloading. aircraft actually gets hit hard enough to collapse gear into deck engine blew up while taxiing, something hit the airplane and damaged elevator and wing another instance the aircraft got knock out of chocks 100% reproducible. Track file is to big to post because this forum is older than dirt and I'm got gonna do the leg work of file servers and links and all that crap.
  9. You should add an inspirational quote to your signature block about taking initiative, then start a livery thread and contribute to it, instead of complaining about the fact that someone else hasn't done something you see the need for.
  10. Pinnacle ops would be more impressive if it weren't for the fact that it's a task that every Chinook pilot has to do in order to call themselves a Chinook pilot.
  11. What do you mean I can't pay with Marlboro Miles and Camel Cash from 1996? How dare you!
  12. Surprisingly, the actual UH-60L TM doesn't have a table of audible alerts, their causes, and operator actions.
  13. Is there a text list of what the audio warning system says? I have the directions figured out, and I think “ fixed wing” and “tracking” but I’m not sure about the rest. For instance, something that sounds like “power de hosas” constantly. thanks
  14. Are you done?
  15. They get to stay in business and keep people employed. You can't just assume that ED is in the financial position to subsidize miles usage for purchases, and neither can RAZBAM. The 30% discount is more than incentive enough to pre-order. Pre-ordering allows them to take the cash from the advance sales to pay some bills and keep the lights on. Believe it or not there was a time before "points" or "miles" where people bought modules anyway.
  16. That's a bummer. Soon, hopefully. I'm sure ED and ciribob have it somewhere in the priority list. Clearly.
  17. RTS rocker button can't be used to control the movement of the CPG PTT selection, only the pilot, therefor only backseat can talk on the radio.
