Thanks guys, doing everything from the front seat with Jester! The videos really help.

Thanks everyone, I will try your suggestions. Also @Despayre I went to the back seat because I thought it was the only way to find and zoom in on targets for bombing. (I need to read the manual again)

I’m currently learning the F-14 and have run into a frustrating issue with Active Pause when switching to the RIO seat. Sometimes it works perfectly, but most of the time it doesn't—and when it doesn’t, it usually ends in a crash. Here’s what I’ve noticed: When it works: I can hop into the RIO seat, and my trim settings in the pilot seat stay at 0—everything’s stable. When it doesn’t: My pitch trim ends up way off—sometimes around 30 degrees nose-up—and I’m unable to trim it back down. The aircraft becomes uncontrollable, usually leading to a fatal stall or crash on resuming flight. Has anyone figured out the trick to making Active Pause consistently work when switching seats in the Tomcat? Any tips or workarounds from you seasoned pilots would be hugely appreciated! Thanks in advance! —Paul

After some research, here is why I can not connect ground power: " Neutral and non coalition airports will not provide aircrew support"

Even though the canopy is open, I dont think they hear me. I selected refuel & arm and did not get a response back. Works no problem with my Viper, F18 I guess starting with the engines on will have to do for now

Cold & Dark Cockpit: From the ICS menu: F8 F2 F1 "Cheif turn on the ground power" Crickets.. no response back Really weird.

I started on the ground, so from the outside view the canopy is open. I will try to close it and re-open to see if the works, maybe a re-install is needed.

Just purchased the F14 I followed some videos on the quick start where they connect ground and air from the menu, I did that and Jester responds "Connecting Ground Power" but he never comes back and say "All set" no response from Jester, so the ground power remains off. Not sure what I did wrong.

Hello, For some reason I am not able to upgrade to the latest version, I normally get a upgrade notification when starting DCS I am still on 2.9.16.10973 MT and I believe DCS 2.9.17.11733 is the latest version. -Paul

Figured this out, I assigned the MMS line of site to a control axias on my throttle.

I am trying to slow down the slew speed of the MMS so I can fine tune the target between the cross-hairs. I have assigned one of my buttons that move left, right, up and down to the MMS axis (I have a Warthog joystick) How do I slow the speed down? the slightest push moves the cross-hairs across the screen. thanks

I also just purchased this, at first I held back because the cockpit textures did not look that good in some of the videos but now that I have it the textures look fine. What a flight model!. Great Job guys!

Thanks everyone, now I understand how it works!

Hello everyone, I was wondering how do you zoom in on the radar to see your targets? I push the trigger button one to turn on the radar, and I thought the second press of the trigger button was suposed to zoom in, what am I doing wrong, my targets are like finding ants in the sand!
