That sounds almost....Too easy...
-
So just add a new file, I use Visual Studio for my viewer, with that title with just those 4 lines of text and should be golden?
-
Is there a way to get this function back with the new version of DCS? Definitely don't see autoexec.cfg anymore under saved games.

Does anyone know of a way to have a recurring drone? With the QF-4E now in the game, I'm trying to think of a way to have that drone just go from waypoint to waypoint and if it gets shot down, it just basically respawns at WP0 and keeps going. Can use it to test out different planes with different missiles, radar techniques etc...I know I can probably have 13 different drone all with triggers to activate the next on death but there has to be an easier way. I also don't want immortal because I want to see it go down in flames as well Lol

When I had that issue, it was a mod for me. Once that mod, forgot exactly what mod but it's on that post, was removed from my tech folder, it started working again. Just start with a clean mods folder and start putting them back in until you find the problem file. Can be time consuming but it works.

Because CMWS is/was a mod. The -10 is the standard equipment operators manual. Aircraft, A's and L's, got sent off for the CMWS mod. The M model was the first Blackhawk to come off the line with CMWS. That's why it's not referenced in the -10 until the UH-60M. I definitely meant around for a long time...

CMWS has been around for a long time. I remember walking into my hanger back in Jan 2005 and had birds getting the A-kits installed for CMWS before my sister battalion deployed to Afghanistan. We also had CMWS installed on our aircraft when I deployed for the first time in 2007. I put some photos up also...The 2 pictures; one with ESSS installed and the one with the cockpit doors open are from 2006/2007 time frame. You can see the CMWS EOMS housing on the nose. The one of my taking a preflight fuel sample is in Iraq between Sep-Nov 2007, no combat patch yet. You can see the flare bucket right behind my shoulder. The last pic I took of our chalk 2 while flying in Iraq. You can see all the CMWS stuff on it back in OIF 07-09.

Anyone figure out why this thing only hits 42 knots in the ME?

The mixer will still move the controls in the cockpit since everything from the cockpit up into the hydraulic deck is hard tubing style flight controls. Even when trim is engaged and you use the china hat to adjust the trim, the cyclic will physically move. The mixer doesn't counter anything. It's a physical part of the flight controls placed in between the SAS actuators and the primary servos. It has full range of motion. I would assume so for the trim. I wasn't a pilot, just a crew chief who got to hang out the window with the M240H Lol

The real bird does automatically dispense for SAM threats. I'm not positive whether or not the game simulates the data cards for both the APR-39 and the CMWS, but I'm going to assume so. Real life version has data cards that contain missile profiles on them and have giant red stickers that say CLASSIFIED on them and get inserted into the APR-39 and the CMWS processors so it can fire the right cocktails of flares and chaff. Definitely make sure that all your systems are on. APR-39 on, CMWS on, chaff dispenser armed, AAR-57 armed. There is also a safety pin by the ICS box for the left rear CE. I don't know if that's modeled or not in DCS. If it is, that pin needs to be pulled for the dispensers to work as well.

Yeah, in the real-life version of the -60 the mechanical mixing unit, MMU, does that for you. The MMU is designed to put in flight control inputs for you, for lack of better wording. It will automatically do collective-pitch, collective-roll, collective-yaw, yaw-pitch. Basically, when you pull collective, it will add pedal and cyclic to maintain a level attitude. All H-60 variants still use flight control rods and cables. Sikorsky has an experimental version that has a fly by wire system but that's it. It hasn't been pushed out to the fleet yet. I wish they had a fly by wire when I was crewing on them. Wouldn't have had to do full flight control rigs anymore! LOL
