  1. I have gotten bored with the Channel and Normandy Maps. Long flights times over the channel and flat featureless flat terrain that pretty much looks the same. I am now using the Syria Map and the Island of Cyprus. The Island of Cyprus terrain resembles Crete, North Africa and Sicily. Flight times are much shorter, more interesting, and I get that feel for WWII in the Mediterranean Theater. I sometimes use the Persian Gulf Map. A great place for a North Africa experience. Chasing Rommel in the deserts of interior Iran.
  2. Yes, please. Give us the old Mosquito back until you have solved the problem.
  3. I flew the Jug yesterday. I completed multiple take-off and landings. It worked perfectly. Then tried the Mosquito again, which I have been trying to land for over a month. Not once did I not break something. Even while taxiing slow I once broke the back wheel.
  4. OK, I am no computer or programmer wizard. There is a file in the main DCS Directory. Mods-Aircraft-Mosquito-FM- FMOptions. Here's what is in FM Option: tailWheelStaticFricK = 0.6 tailWheelSideFricK = 0.8 tailWheelRollFricK = 0.025 tailWheelGlideFricK = 0.8 tailWheelMOI = 0.15 mainWheelStaticFricK = 0.71 mainWheelSideFricK = 0.73*.9 mainWheelRollFricK = 0.022 mainWheelGlideFricK = 0.69 mainWheelBrakeMomentMax = 7500 --18000.0 mainWheelMOI = 8.32 tailGearYawDamperK = 36.0 tailGearAxleAngShift = 0 tailGearAxleFricM0s = 110 --280.0 tailGearAxleFricM0f = 110 --0.05 tailGearAxleFricVs = 0.4 tailGearAxleFricVf = 1 tailGearAxleAngShift = -18/57.3 --math.rad(-18.0) tailGearStockLength = 0.101 tailGearSpringForceFactor = 7.5E8 tailGearSpringForceFactorRate = 4 tailGearStaticForce = 6000 tailGearReduceLength = 0.05 tailGearDirectDamperForceFactor = 5000.0 tailGearBackDamperForceFactor = 30000.0 tailGearDamageLengthLim = 0.0 -- until pneumatics compression not implemented mainGearSpringForceFactor = 21000000000 mainGearSpringForceFactorRate = 9 mainGearStaticForce = 30000 mainGearReduceLength = 0.18 mainGearDirectDamperForceFactor = 50.0 mainGearBackDamperForceFactor = 75000.0 mainGearDamageLengthLim = 0.0 I'm not sure whether the numbers should be increased or decreased. For someone smarter than me to tweak. If the DCS Developers won't fix this, well may be we can.
  5. I would like the option to go back to the way it was. To me it looks like the Mosquito and Mosquito owners are being used to test the suspension for other war birds. This isn't right. Please, give us the option to opt out, and go back to the way it was before.
  6. I have no problems taxing or taking off. Only landing since the change.
  7. After months trying to land the Mosquito while not breaking something. I found a solution. It works great in multiplayer! Leave the gear up and belly land. Very survivable. Then ask to be repaired.........re-arm, re-fuel, take off. Works great! My way of saying I give up.
  8. Nice to hear something. ...................did you hear that? ......sorry, it was just the wind.
  9. Yes, we need the YE-ZB System for all the WWII Warbirds. For ships and land. I don't understand why it has been left out. The YE-ZB was the very first TACAN. Info here: https://www.mission4today.com/index.php?name=Knowledge_Base&file=print&kid=704&page=1
  10. After a number of Beta repairs, it shorted itself out. I have no idea why it did that.
  11. Game Flight mode remains off. All other settings look the same. The Mosquito works in quick mission in flight. But, not in take-off. I tried some other aircraft and observed no problems. They all took off fine. It's only the Mosquito. The mph gage doesn't work. The mosquito will not obtain enough airspeed to take off. She taxi's OK. I checked the brakes. I see no problems. At 100% Full Throttle I can only get 12 mph while on the ground.
  12. It's worse for me. Since installing the update. ! can no longer reach take-off speed to take off. Acceleration stops at about 70 mph!
  13. On take off the Mosquito will not reach take-off speed. Accelerates to 70 mph, then stops accelerating. Never reaching take-off speed. Problem started right after installing latest (todays) update. I use no mods. I saw no changes to the mosquito in the update? UPDATE: I performed a BETA Repair. Now the Mosquito not only doesn't accelerate to take-off, the mph gage does not work at all. After two years, things have gone from bad to worse.
  14. After spending months learning the Mosquito, the A4-e Skyhawk is now a piece of cake. That's why DCS is called a flight simulator.
  15. I quit using the aircraft after the last BETA update. I also, kept getting head tracker/view problems. Getting some very weird views. Would not stay centered. I'm not smart enough to figure it out, so between the Shrikes and head tracker views, I moved on until things get fixed.
  16. I break the rear wheel almost every landing at Manston. On the Normandy Map. Crossing the threshold 110-125 mph. Dirt strips in Normandy, no problems.
  17. The most difficult airfield is Manston on Normandy Map.
  18. Flew hours yesterday. I'm no technical person. But even I know when something isn't right. I was hoping the latest Mosquito updates would have fixed some of its real problems. Not create more.
  19. When landing, the Mosquito's tires sink into the ground.

    F-18 boring?

    I flew the F-18 for 5 years. All the modern aircraft which rely on fighting computer identified little dots at extreme ranges, eventually get boring. I almost gave up on DCS. Then I discovered Warbirds and the Mosquito. I never get bored flying the Mosquito.
