I've experienced the same in the Instant Action, cold and dark flight. Regards, John

I feel that what people are saying is that the aileron trim is too coarse. I have found that even with manually setting the aileron trim to the neutral position, I get a roll in either direction in flight. That in itself is okay but I can't adjust the aileron trim in flight to prevent any roll-off to either side. When I use the trim reset, the aileron trim is in perfect neutral with no roll-off. I feel that the aileron trim requires a bit more granularity to be able to properly trim wings level manually. Regards, John

No they don't. See the following for a description of the proper operation.

The fix has been posted by NineLine in this thread. Set the Avionics language to English.

Not a bug. It's part of the TAS Indicator. See Page 21 in the Flight Manual. It's in the Mods folder. x:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\MiG-29-Fulcrum\Doc Regards, John

ED seems to be stuck on tagging gear problems with "over-speeding gear" "not a bug". The real jet has a gear operation limit of 370 KIAS so i doubt that's the case. This is an indication of how robust this landing gear is IRL. Regards, John

Just to confirm I didn't overspeed the gear, I flew a test flight using the Mig-29G numbers. I retracted and extended the gear at several KIAS points up to and including 400 KIAS. The gear didn't fail at all which tells me the development team has the correct 370 KIAS gear operation speeds modelled. Track attached. Regardless of the above, the gear is too weak on the ground as currently modelled. And please remove the "overspeeding gear" tag as it doesn't reflect what I'm reporting. Regards, John Mig-29 gear speeds.trk

I did post that I had an excursion off the taxiway which caused the initial issue. Thus I replicated it on the tracks. The landing gear should be able to withstand unprepared surfaces. On track "Mig-29 gear damage", the left main gear already indicated unsafe after taxiing on the unprepared surface. I did not overspeed the landing gear on takeoff. The max indicated airspeed I reached was 290 KIAS with the gear retraction initiated well below 200 KIAS. The ED supplied flight manual has no reference to landing gear operation airspeeds. According to the German Air Force Mig-29G (Mig-29A to NATO standard) approved flight manual (GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1), the landing gear operation maximum speed is 370 KIAS. I didn't come near that speed. Regards, John

I see this has been marked as "correct as-is". I have attached 2 track files and will respectfully disagree with the assessment. In both tracks the gear didn't collapse but I was unable to retract them successfully. I also noticed that this has been tagged as "VVI to(sp) great". This was not due to high sink rate on landing but on taxi out from parking. The Mig-29A has very robust landing gear and should be able to take short excursions from paved surfaces without causing damage to the gear. Although this is a video of Mig-21's operating from a grass field, the principle is the same. Regards, John Mig-29 gear damage-2.trk Mig-29 gear damage.trk

Hello, Getting used to the paddle brakes and had a very slow excursion off the side of the taxiway during which the left main gear was damaged and partially collapsed with a flat tire. The Mig-29 was designed and built with unimproved strips in mind so a gear collapse with a slow excursion over flat frozen ground should not have happened. I didn't save a track but I'll test again and post it if I get the same results. Regards, John

Hello, I did some searching around and came to the same conclusion. Avionics language is set to English and problem is resolved. Thanks, John

Hi, After installing the Mig-29A, it's not logging any flight time in my log book. All flights have been single player. Checked the "logbook.lua" file and the Mig-29A isn't listed there. Any thoughts? Regards, John

This is the forum for the full fidelity Mig-29A just released and not for the FC version. The forum you need is below. MiG-29 for DCS World - ED Forums Regards, John

Titles says it all. I have the English cockpit option selected but the AEKRAN display is in Cyrillic. The FAIL, TURN and MEMORY annunciators are in English. Regards, John

Have any of the suggestions helped with your question? Want to make sure it's making sense. Cheers, John
