I meant to add this to the inverter thread but forgot and maybe it should go here because it's technically a different item. The battery, when the A/C is hot started, is opposite of the button box setting. So if I have my switch on IRL, it will be off in game, so I have to click it in the virtual cockpit to match each time I hot start. Same goes for the pitot heat, the anti-skid, and the ground jet enable cover and day/night HUD. Also, I've noticed that a lot of switches in the CONTROL OPTIONS only have an "activate" for on and off, like a toggle. A lot of the other A/C that actually have an "on" or "of" and toggle. For instance the A-10 pitot heat is "pitot heater switch" only not "pitot on" or "pitot off". I like having the three options ON, OFF, and TOGGLE, because you have the best of all worlds to make it work with your button boxes etc. Another thing I've grown to love is when there is a 3 or 4 way dial switch, like for fuel or a landing light for example, on other A/C there are two bindings to cycle up or down. That isn't available in the A-10. I've had to get creative in the settings to make it work somewhat, but even then it doesn't work 100%. *Edit: I should point out that this isn't mutually exclusive to the A-10, there are other A/C in DCS that also only have one Control Options setting for a switch. Instead of ON, OFF, and TOGGLE they just have a TOGGLE. I also understand that you guys have to work with how some of the A/C work IRL with a switch disabling or even shutting off another like lights on a master switch so in some instances you will have to flip the original switch back on again, etc.* I hope I made sense, please let me know if anything is unclear and I will explain in better detail if needed. Thank you for hearing me out. Have a good day!

Oh that's neat. I'll learn some more about it. Thanks again!

I did more testing with different stations and APKWS ammo types and found out only stations 2 and 10 reflect each round fired, regardless of APKWS type. Screenshots attached to clarify. Thanks again!

Oh man, this seems all way over my head. I started PC gaming back in Feb but haven't had a PC in over 15 years before this. I might just wait for a DCS update/change in the kneeboard if that ever comes. I very much appreciate the insight and options though. I'm just nervous about having all these add ons and stuff running in the background is all and maybe just doing stuff that's way out of my comfort zone and don't want to "break" anything further

oh wow! so this doesn't use the existing kneeboard but makes a new one? or does it just activate the existing one? and it uses voice commands? I need to do way more research on this. Thanks for the suggestion!!!!

Thank you, I appreciate you!

This doesn't violate the integrity check? I've done it one way finally, but it prevents me from flying on certain servers so I had to revert it back.

Forgive my ignorance but where do I find that? Is that a special program? If so, what's it called? I've looked all over!!

Before I got the Winwing MIPs for the F18 I was able to use the kneeboard. Loved it because there is so much useful information on there for flights. When I got my Winwing setup it now moved the kneeboard off screen and onto the MIPs and it is now completely unusable. I have tried clicking and dragging it to my main monitor but I can't find the title to drag it, and after several months of looking I was finally able to move the .LUA but it now violates the check in multiplayer servers so I had to move it back. I hope I explained this properly and will try to attach some stuff to help show what I mean. Please let me know if there's something that can be done. I miss the kneeboard and the custom one's I've added that I haven't been able to use in over 8 months now. Thank you and have a great day! Keep kicking ass!

I've noticed for some time now on the A-10C II that the 3 rack laser guided M282 MPP APKWS on the BRU-42 3x LAU-131's on stations 5 and 8 fire, but the rockets never leave the pod, visually. So when you shoot them all it will still show a full load on the external view. Even as you are firing them it won't show one missing or however many you shoot. Thank you in advance! You guys kick ass, thank you for all of your hard work!

I can confirm. I have it bound to a button box and it goes on, but never off, unless clicked with the mouse.

This would be awesome. Ever since getting the Winwing MIPs the kneeboard has been off the screen for me and on the little MIP but way larger than that screen. No one I ask, DCS or winwing, has been helpful in fixing it.

Thanks for the info! I searched for "C-130" and even "Airplane Simulation Company" on the website and this was the most relevant to anything I could find. I noticed after I had made the post that it was in Italian. Whoops! Just looking to get info was all. I don't ever want anything rushed for the sake of releasing it. Get it done right and complete and finished. I can wait. I'm just excited is all (like everyone else)! Thanks for the reply! Have a wonderful day!

HI! I just got into DCS in Feb of this year so I'm pretty new. I've read the manuals and learned the F-16C and F/A-18C and working on the A-10C II, and now the CH-47 (I love it) but I was wondering if the C-130 was still being made. I would love to see it come to life. You guys are doing a great job, and thank you all for what you have done and continue to do. Have a wonderful day and keep kicking ass!!
