  1. Damien, Superb job. Excellent craftsmanship and solid instructions! I highly recommend your TDC Upgrade. The 'surgery" took about 90 minutes start to finish and in game to flight test in the Hornet. My install experience: - The tiny right side phillips screw was hard to fit with a screwdriver bit. Used an eyeglass screwdriver. - Small hands, not my hamfist, are needed to pinch and pop out the old TDC switch. I managed with a jeweler flathead to get the old TDC switch to wiggle out. This was the hardest part of the whole operation. My head trauma nurse fainted when she saw all the exposed wires. - Disconnecting the old TGP connector from it's PCB is a delicate procedure. - Insertion of the new TDC switch and PCB connection was uneventful. I used the square faceplate mount. I appreciate you giving us two faceplates to choose from and spare screws with an allen wrench. - Speaking of screws. I dropped one of the faceplate screws into the throttle binding and inside the throttle assembly. I had to take off the bottom two steel plates for it to fall out. LOL I recommend placing a paper towel or cloth around the throttle stems to avoid that needless nightmare. - The calibration was flawless as per your instructions. - In my F-18 test flight the new TDC for radar and FLIR cursor operation was outstanding. Very smooth tracking and movement. It's like a new sim! Thanks for your effort and providing this excellent upgrade to the community! Cheers,
  2. Spirit Strike Emmy and Habu_69 are correct ... but, hold my beer! Spirit Strike.miz
  3. Try using flags ...
  4. Placed order #4348 on 6 July. Shipped today (10 Aug 20)! The countdown begins ... Royal Mail vs. USPS. It's Christmas in August ... LOL. Delta Sim TDC Upgrade arrived today, 17AUG20, and FS2020 arrives at midnight! Eight day shipping ... not bad. Throttle surgery to commence later this afternoon. AND, F-18 FLIR coordinates and elevation on FLIR page in Wednesday's DCS update. Talk about "Just In Time" delivery! :thumbup: Delta Sim
  5. Could parking spots (at least 2 per airfield) be created so AI C-130 & C-17 aircraft can be tasked to takeoff and land at each airfield?
  6. Gents, could you create a zip or winrar version? Presently, your existing executable does not uninstall properly from the Windows 10 Version 2004. Nobody wants their registry fouled up.
  7. Great news Admiral! Can't wait for the LPD class.
  8. Interesting. Should still work with either bombing action.
  9. Move the two groups of MiG-21 spawn points back 25-30 NM from the target. Add a WP1 in front of that point and add your bombing trigger action to that WP and remove them from WP0. Add a WP2 about 10-15 NM after your TGT area and maybe a WP3 & WP4 to get them to clear the area.
  10. TBone, Try the attached mission. Just play it out of the M.E. and see if it works. If not, try a DCS repair if you dare. B-1_Bomb_Run_PG.miz
  11. Another shameless plug for an Excel to DCS CoPilot upload capability ... :D This would be a great help to mission builders / planners supporting squadron operations.
  12. That's a great question and I second the request for more and newer static object menu items.
  13. Well done! Looking forward to the next version. North Island, Carolina? ;-)
  14. New content added with Change 2. See thread below for info and link to update: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=234100 Enjoy!
  15. Nice one Admiral. Ship's Ahoy!
  16. Any tips in adjusting the LUA code to output feet rather than meters?
  17. PorcoRosso86, Any chance of doing a Maverick Top Gun 2 F-18 hemet? Cheers,
  18. Has the F-18 pilot rank become a mirrored object now? I cannot get Major, Lt Colonel, or Colonel rank to display properly now.
  19. Once the LMAV and TGP/ATFLIR get more stable I'll add them.
  20. See thread below for link to update: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=234100 Enjoy!
