I recently got a new TM Warthog so I was changing many configs at once. On two occasions I would click OK to save and I would get a black screen. Eventually I would have to kill the task and I noted only some of the configs I made would have been saved. One thing to note (but not proven) was that I think it was crashing when I was reconfiguring the Mig29/S/G controls. Not sure if that was a contributing factor. I was only able to reproduce it twice and it was not easy to do.

I just purchased a brand new one and right out of the box the "autopilot engage" button is stuck in the "on" position. So disappointed. :(

I would love this for anti-shipping missions.

I just recently got this module and I have searched the forums a bit to see if anyone else asked this but: How do I get into the back seat?

Thanks Bounder I'll check you folks out. I'm in the EST timezone so hopefully that won't be a problem. :) In regards to the radiator I tried all kinds of altitude, speed, and initial heat conditions but it seemed to me no matter what it would always fully close the radiator. I will retest later today to confirm it can be reproduced. One thing to note is that the mission was an air-start and the airplane does not start configured for flying so that might contribute. Regarding roll I thought I was keeping it to 250+ km/h but if I brought the nose up at all the slats would jump out and the aircraft would become very unstable. This is likely growing pains as I learn the aircraft but it would be much more fun to fly with human pilots. ;)

I have had this module for a while now but have not had any serious stick time so I thought I would give it a go this weekend. Wow....this is a handful! First question: I set the radiator to automatic but it never seems to open the radiator even when the engine is overheating. I am forced to pop it out of automatic is set it to "open" to aviod the engine seizing. Can someone give me some advice on how to operate the radiator? Trying the dogfight quick mission and had a hell of a time. The aircraft always wants to snaproll to the left no matter how much rudder/aileron I give it. Trying to follow the P-51 into the climb is always ending in a snaproll. What I could really use is some one-on-one time with someone who has mastered the plane. I love the Bf109 but I will be damed if I know how to fly it. ;)

I just tested it out and got it working with no problems. I will try to answer your questions: 1. you need to copy this line: dofile( "C:\\Users\\[username]\\Saved Games\\DCS\\Scripts\\telemetryBF109.lua") and add it to the end of your export.lua file. I recommend when you edit the export.lua file that you use something like Notepad++ as some editors will add hidden characters that might cause the LUA scripter to have problems. 2. the telemetryBF109.lua file you downloaded will have a line that looks something like this: bfhost, bfport = "192.168.0.101", 6001 -- replace IP with android device ip You are going to need to find out what the IP address is that has been assigned to your android device. The app that you installed has a menu item Show IP. This tells DCS World where to send the telemetry data. 3. you are not changing the IP address of your android device. Only entering it into the .lua file so DCS knows where to send the data. 4. nope not dangerous (in this case ;)). The app you installed on your andriod device cannot query your PC for the information. Your PC, which is running DCS World must voluntarily send the information. BTW thanks for pointing out this app. I had a lot of fun figuring it out and playing around with it. It is very responsive to the sim and does not appear to lag at all.

Got a track?

I can't wait to buy this!!! Love helo Sims and this one in particular looks awesome!

Oh, well damn. Odd that I can find it from my iPad but not from my PC. I wonder how that works? Thanks mwd2 for your help :)

This is very odd. I was inspired to try this campain out when I read this Mudspike article I found here: http://www.mudspike.com/dcs-world2-the-enemy-within/ When I google search for this on my iPad I am able to find it in the DCS user files here: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/1286622/ and I am able to view this from my iPad. But if I attempt to go to that URL from my PC I am getting "Element is not found" from the DCS website. To try to get around this I emailed myself the link to the .rar file from my iPad to my PC, which is: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/download.php?iblock_id=1&id=1286622&goto=%2Fupload%2Fiblock%2F399%2FEnemy_Within_NEW_COMPLETE.rar but again I am met with failure as I then get a "404 not found" error from the browser. Does anyone else have this problem and/or have a way I can get around this?

The problem with the Cessna is that it has been done to death with almost every other sim out there.

What I'm saying is that the roll indicator is also the pitch indicator. If you place the attitude bar between the bars of the FD indicator you will have both the roll and the pitch.

The indicators on the HUD are giving both pitch and bank information.

I've got it!. :) I found the Smart Technology Programming Software and in fact I had both 7.0.39.0 and 7.0.27.13 installed at the same time! I uninstalled both then took a look into my device manager and under the Saitek Magic Bus heading I have a number of warnings. When I check the version of everything in there I discover that the Hotkeys, Keyboard, and Mouse are all using the 7.0.39.0 drivers!! So I uninstalled everything there as well. I then proceeded to re-installed both the 7.0.39.0 drivers followed by the 7.0.27.13 SST software (which I found exactly where you said I could find it). Everything is now functioning as it should. Thanks very much for your help with this!

Thanks for your reply Ian! How did you uninstall the SST software? I could not find an uninstaller anywhere.

I forget what version I was running before but I upgraded to the latest drivers on the Saitek site which brings me to 7.0.39.0 for both the software and the driver. The joystick still functions as far as the control panel is concerned but now when I assign a profile to the joytick it no longer functions like a keyboard. Does anyone know how to restore this functionality?

Some people just like the social interaction. :) I see no harm in answering and I like the easy ones.

Not entirely on topic but fun to see anyways: Here is a picture of a Hurricane having the guns adjusted at night in the winter:

As I said in the original thread there was only the .diff.lua file there and deleting it had one effect at all. Has anyone managed to be able to bind this to a keyboard key?

Yes I saw I could bind it to my joystick but I use a Saitek X-52 Pro which I have programmed (which makes it emulate the keyboard) so I really need it to be a keyboard command. :(

This option is under the "Engine" subsection but it does not appear to be bind-able to a key. I tried resetting the keyboard config file but I cannot find the keyboard.lua file to delete. I tried removing the keyboard.diff.lua file but that didnt do anything.

I could not agree more! The sounds, the handling, and the exterior and interior design is simply amazing. Before this module and the F-86 I didn't really know alot about this era of aicraft but I am now inspired to learn it all.

Thanks Owl I forgot DCS puts those details on the product page. :)

Bunyap where did you get the slides for the schematics (ie oxygen, airflow, etc.)?
