  1. DK2? As in Donkey Kong 2? :D
  2. Hmmmm, Not sure about the challenge but here's a screenshot :D
  3. :D :doh:
  4. I think he was trying to post the first image in that link but posted the website page instead...
  5. As far as I know the DCS P-51D is limited to only 67" with WEP. I have seen it higher but that was only after getting shot up and breaking parts... From the DCS web page. "War Emergency Power (WEP) mode, nominally limited to 5 minutes of operation. WEP can be mechanically implemented in a number of ways. The first option is to artificially lower the pressure acting on the aneroid by opening an escape line, resulting in an opening of the throttle valve by the regulator so as to “maintain” pressure – while in fact boosting it beyond the value set by the throttle handle. This method was used on early Mustangs, which featured a special control handle in the cockpit to engage WEP. Another option is to design the throttle linkage assembly such that the relay piston is in the fully closed position when the throttle handle is set to full military power. The pilot would then push the throttle handle past this setting into the WEP position, further opening the throttle valve and the relay piston would be unable to act upon it to close it. And the final option is to design the linkage system such that the throttle handle position past full military power would produce manifold pressure up to 67 or even 75 in.Hg. Given the limitations of most HOTAS controllers used by virtual pilots, DCS Mustang will model the first method. This allows us to avoid having to rely on throttle detents or limit their range of movement in the pre-WEP range. As such, we will have a dedicated input command to engage WEP as a simulation of a cockpit control handle." https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/dev_journal/dcs_p_51d_mustang/
  6. - Takeoff assistant, This will help to maintain the runway heading, not to get off from the runway. The rudder pedals can be used to add user's control. The assistant's main role is similar to an experienced pilot's role - it shows proper rudder input during takeoff and 2-points landing. As you gain skill the assistant's input can be gradually reduced up to zero.
  7. Where did you find 75-90" Mp? War Emergency at 3000 rpm will give you 67' MP & 1,595 HP.
  8. Would of been smoother without the hook grabbing the cable...
  9. That's not a big helicopter, THIS is a big helicopter :D Russian Mil V 12
  10. :doh: :megalol:
  11. You probably had takeoff assistance and or auto rudder turned on when you were flying by yourself. When you went online, the online mission may of had those turned off which is why it felt more sensitive. If you are holding the stick back during takeoff make sure it is only a small amount and only while the tail wheel in on the ground. Once the tail comes up you will need to relax the control stick. Too much up elevator during takeoff can get you airborne early and or cause a stall.
  12. And those need to be added along with rain on the canopy effects. :thumbup:
  13. They should just remove all cabin heaters, defoggers and Ac's in aircraft since they are not needed.... :doh:
  14. B-17 is the only answer here...
  15. On the main menu go to the logbook option. You will find "Invulnerable" Select Yes.
  16. I miss Discovery Wings...
  17. Cool video. I can't wait for the awesome 47. But as a ground school and flight instructor myself, those teaching techniques are hard to listen to. The instructor was jumping all over the place.
  18. There are tons of threads and post of people saying "Give it to me now!, I don't care if it's finished!" "Release it early! I want to fly it!" "Give me the beta!!!, AGGGGhhhhh!!" But then they do and the complaints continue... I do agree the manual is well past due, I just find it interesting there are complaints no matter what.
  19. I want to fly where there is nice scenery to look at. I don't care where it is... I want to go sightseeing and take awesome screenshots while i'm at it.
  20. Internet connection can be pretty poor on base in a combat theater. Online play would be no good :D (At least it was that way for my deployments)
  21. :music_whistling:
