Hey all, this has been fixed internally, we lowered the gyroscopic moment effect from the engine. Thanks!

Dear all, thank you for your interest and questions on the DCS: CH-47. To address all those questions and concerns we have created this FAQ. We hope it will help give you some ideas of what to expect from this exciting new module. How much is the DCS: CH-47F? During Pre-purchase you can save 30% on this module. Once it moves to Early Access it will move to an Early Access DIscount and on final release will be 69.99 USD. When will the module be released? The current planned release is June 2024. Why is the feature list so light? We wanted to be sure we correctly listed features and when they will come out, either at EA release or during EA. We will continue to update the list here and on the store page as we have more info. This is an important module to DCS and needs to bring all the things you might expect from such a famous helicopter. Will ED support and update Logisics for this module? We can say that we are developing a novel logistics system for the CH-47F that dynamically allows the player to determine what is loaded and unloaded from the aircraft based on weight and area. Whilst this will not be available at early access release, it is a high priority for the CH-47F and other cargo/transport aircraft. What about Multicrew? Pilot multicrew is certainly planned for the early access release, but door or rear-gunner multicrew support is planned for after the early access release. Why is only an M-60 gun shown in the video? We will have options for this where you can choose either the M-60 or the M-240H. What about water landings? We most certainly want to do this as an iconic aspect of this helicopter. Water landing physics needs to be added to DCS to support this and other aircraft in the future. As such this will come later on in EA development. Will 'Fat Cow' (FARP) missions be possible? Yes, this is planned for the DCS: CH-47F. How will transporting work on the DCS: CH-47F? Can we pick up downed pilots, player-controlled vehicles, cows? We stated above we will be developing a novel logistics system for the CH-47 and other cargo/transport aircraft, when we have more details to share on what this will entail we will be sure to share. We will leave this thread open to continue to ask questions or state what you hope for in logistics or other functions of this incredible helicopter. We thank you for all the support you have shown us and the passion that drives you all to keep pushing us to do our best and release the very best products we can. The ED Team

No matter what you might think I can assure you work continues on the F/A-18C. If and when we want to make a big fanfare about being out of EA we will do so, but we have things we are still working on. As for the comment above about low confidence, that couldn't be farther from the truth. The DCS: F/A-18C is a solid module even with some polishing still needing to be done. As far as bug reports we still try and make sure they are all added so the team knows and can prioritize them as needed. I am more of a WWII guy but for modern the F/A-18C is still my personal go-to aircraft. I just upgraded my HOTAS setup with WINWING F/A-18 stuff and I love the aircraft. Again, yes there are some things to be done still and bugs that exist and need to be addressed we will get to them all. I honestly am not up on the big fanfare releases because no matter how complete at the time, someone may have an issue with something and honestly fanfare for release feels like a goodbye to development when we still have things we want to do. I know some of you might not agree with me, or think I am lying or spinning the truth, but this is all facts. Really the only thing that has changed on the F/A-18C development is some text lines on the store page.

You should probably wait till after Early Access to buy this then. No during EA it will not have all the features, yes it will have some bugs ( and we appreciate those that buy in early and help identify those) and not all new features will come right away. For example landing on water is a new thing for DCS and will take time to do and get right. Kind regards.

Thanks all, we are taking a good look at this now.

Previous post is hidden for review, will unhide if deemed legit. Thanks

This video shows a different and more recent OFP, what we have is correct for our version, thanks!

I am sure I have said the same things here at some point, as well as in other places like Discord. It's nearly impossible to reach everyone in one place.

We will have more info on this coming soon. Thanks. Pre-order as always is optional, and just a way to save early on a future module.

That is sort of the point of Early Access, to allow people to get their hands on it before it's done and help in development. YOu can love the Lancaster mod, as I do, but you don't need to take shots at us. You can wait till final release on our stuff as well. Thanks.

Please stop with the insults and OT, we are still looking at options. I am not sure this issue is worth fighting with each other for. As well if you open new threads about this you will also receive a warning, keep that in mind. Thanks.

If you can supply a track that would be appreciated. it is better to get exactly what you are looking at or seeing from your perspective rather than guess at what you saw. Thanks.

This has gone well off-topic now. Closed.

The changelog is for the info released in the patches for all products, the mini-update for the F-16 is for the important stuff that needs to be addressed and passed to customers ASAP even before its added to the manual. If we add yet another, singular source we will yet again miss even more people. We are pretty happy how its working now, help others find these sources if you see them missing them. Thanks.

Just cuz I know it will have got lost in here, this is reported, although I cannot reproduce on my own the jackhammer tail wheel, I have tracks with it and it is reported along with the currently over active tail wheel.
