This time, after completing the cold start and switching to IFA mode while still on the ground, the HUD did not shift. I’m not sure if this is due to a recent DCS update. Later, I tried switching the INS knob to IFA immediately after engine start and began flying while it was still aligning. As expected, the HUD showed a slight rightward offset. I’m not sure if my procedure was correct, but the result was the same as the HUD offset I experienced during hot starts on multiplayer servers. (Note): The video showing the HUD shifting to the right is from the cold start mission, while the other one is from a multiplayer server mission. 5B4F33DDC3DBAA8287B1F0CFFBBFCA0B.mov 5978C478C2A8A24F98141DDEF1BAF16A.mov PVP PVE 黑海综合训练地图 v33.1-20250730-162024.trk

This is the HUD after completing the cold start training mission, with the INS knob set to NAV mode and not switched to IFA. It appears to be normal, with no visible offset. 25960DDF29630EFE3FCB9EE4763E3D90.mov TEAT1.trk

The cold start training mission for the F/A-18 also occasionally shows slight HUD offset. I’ll upload a track file later. This seems to be a probabilistic issue — it doesn’t happen every time, but it’s relatively easy to reproduce. For now, my workaround is to re-align the INS every time I hot start, and I avoid switching to IFA while still on the ground, as I suspect it may be related to the issue.

In fact, I was able to reproduce this issue on other multiplayer servers as well. However, the HUD offset doesn’t always occur to the same degree — sometimes it’s just a slight deviation. There was still no crosswind in the mission. During landing, I tried to place the FPM (Flight Path Marker) on the runway centerline, but the actual flight path of the aircraft was offset from the centerline.

This issue has been troubling me for a long time—I hope it gets fixed as soon as possible

This I know. You can see in the video that in such situations, after dynamic placeholder hot alignment is completed and the INS is also aligned, the HUD still shows deviation during takeoff.

I’d like to report a bug. The HUD of the F/A-18 occasionally shifts (as shown in the image). There was no wind on the server, and I selected a hot start instead of a cold start, so we can rule out user error. I spawned using a dynamic parking hot start at Kutaisi airbase, with a loadout of two Mk-84s and two Mavericks. Everything looked fine during taxi, but as I accelerated for takeoff, the HUD suddenly shifted to the left. Again, there’s no wind on the server, so external factors shouldn’t be the cause. When I switched to the F-16, the HUD remained stable during takeoff, which further suggests this issue is specific to the F/A-18. From my experience, this problem only happens when using dynamic parking spots — I don’t recall encountering it with traditional ramp or runway starts. Additionally, in some single-player missions, the F/A-18 starts hot with the IFA countdown screen stuck. Thecountdown continues, but the page doesn’t disappear as it should. 8770AFD8-916C-4EE2-A0CE-C5B93FD48455.mov 多人联机打靶图20250721练飞,对空对地,编队,空加-20250726-195457.trk
