BIGNEWY's post in ground units - go to waypoint was marked as the answer
Hi all,
this is working as intended, the unit will take the shortest route to the waypoint you have told it to go to.
If you want it to patrol set the sp and dp waypoint close to each other then use goto waypoint.
example below

BIGNEWY's post in Flaps not working in flight was marked as the answer
Hi, please include a short track replay.
from the manual:
Flaps The L-39С has large mechanical double-slotted flaps on the wings. Their purpose is to improve takeoff and landing characteristics of the airplane by increasing lift and partly the wing area. The flaps are controlled by three buttons, located on the left panel in both cockpits. The top one sets the flaps to the FLIGHT 0° position, the middle one to the TAKEOFF 25° position and the bottom one to the LANDING 44° position. DCS [L-39 ALBATROS] 54 AIRCRAFT OVERVIEW The current flap position is indicated (same for both cockpits) by three indicator lights, located on the left panel near the flap control buttons. When the flaps are retracted, the top “FLIGHT” indicator light is on, when the flaps are in takeoff position, the middle “TAKEOFF” indicator light is on, and when the flaps are in landing position, the bottom “LANDING” indicator light is on. While the flaps are retracting or extending, the corresponding button is held down after being pressed. When the flaps reach the required position, the depressed button pops back to its initial position. Figure 48: Flap position indicators and control buttons Important: The flap buttons in the rear cockpit are the command ones. The pilot in the rear cockpit can override flap controls in the front cockpit! There are mechanical flap indicators, located on the upper surface of each wing, to provide visual identification of flap position. When the flaps are retracted, the mechanical pointers are hidden in the wing: after reaching TAKEOFF position, they are raised halfway and after reaching the “LANDING” position, they are fully extended. The extension time from FLIGHT 0° to TAKEOFF 25° position is (3±1) seconds. The extension time from FLIGHT 0° to LANDING 44° position is (5±1) seconds. Retraction time is the same. If the pilot in due time does not retract the flaps, they will be retracted automatically at airspeeds above 310 km/h.
Flaps Non-Extension Symptoms: • Signal lamp, indicating that flaps are extended, is off • Flaps extension button does not return to initial position Actions: • Check speed, it should not exceed 310 km/h (at speed of 310 km/h flaps extension is blocked) • Set horizontal flight speed of 280 km/h • Deflect emergency flaps extension handle on the right panel in front or rear cockpit back If, due to some reasons, flaps extension is failed (main and emergency systems failures, combat damages), land with retracted flaps. Glideslope speed should be within 250-270 km/h. Glide path should be shallow.

sorry for not replying, this is correct as is.
Markpoints can be used as fly over, or by using the sensors, but not manual input.

Sometimes we may ask for a full debug log to troubleshoot issues.
Please see the autoexec.cfg attached to this post it can be placed in
C:\Users\yourname\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Config
this will enable a full debug log for us to check.
If you already have a autoexec.cfg please add this line to it

Hi
welcome to the forum.
Can I ask you to check your settings and let me know if you have game flight or game avionics ticked?
if you do please untick them and retry, do you see a difference?
if you do still see problems I would like to see a track replay, you can save one when you exit the mission during the debrief windows.
please also check this video about controls setup it may help
thank you

BIGNEWY's post in Apache Longbow Manual found online was marked as the answer
Hi Mizrach
welcome to the forum, the manual you link is for AMAR 3, its not a source we would use.
We have a rule on the forum about discussing other sims as we like to keep it DCS related here.
you can find real world apache manuals on amazon that are declassified also, but please note we have rules about sharing real world data newer than 1980 on the forum.
https://forums.eagle.ru/guidelines/
I will close this thread for now.
Thank you
