Assuming that the center of gravity will be in front of the aft landing gear, it will naturally induce a nose down momentum when hitting the ground if you don't grease the touchdown, so I would assume the pilot might need to be ready to pull the stick back at least some milimeters for a moment. Keep in mind that the AFCS isn't really fleshed out yet, so any support for ground handling is still missing. From the TM:

Unable to Taxi, using power/collective
Rongor replied to flyingscotsman's topic in Bugs and Problems
It's the Engine Condition Levers you have in flight. You then raise the Thrust Control Lever. Don't wanna play the smart guy here, but mixing all this terminology can confuse a lot of readers in this part of the forum. You have to raise the Thrust Control Lever to commence rolling after releasing the brakes. The indication in your MFD shows the status of the weight on wheels switch. If it loses contact, you start coming off the ground, which might not be what you want when intending taxi. -
I entered the copilot's seat in multicrew MP yesterday and from there I could switch to all other unoccupied seats without issues.

Boeing and other sources publish 1080 gallons as internal fuel capacity. Like all other fuels, density of JP-8 can vary within a range depending on temperature and possibly other factors, yet depending on where you look it up stays within around 6.5 - 7 lb per gallon. The Technical manual for the 47-D defines the density as 6.7 lb per gallon for weight/balance calculations. This would mean 7236 lb for completely filled internal tanks. Currently though 100% internal fuel represent only 6734 lb. Even deviating from the TM's 6.7 and assuming the lower density of 6.5, 6734 lb are too short.

could be a thing for Apaches too!

Whatever will be featured for cartridge use, please let us access these files by text editor inside the saved games folder too. Same for the waypoints we can currently save in the new mission planner feature. Would enable us to create and edit such data even while DCS is not running and could be used for mission preparation. I can see no downside to such a solution. The Mirage 2000 DTC file is a good example of how simple it could be. This doesn't restrict at all what any future DCS DTC implementation might come up with in regard of ingame DTC preparation.

Wouldn't it be much more simple to go into special settings and get rid of the gate switch requirement? Looks like this switch is only a gamefication of the requirement to move the levers to the side a bit physically to overcome the detent and then pull it back further, which would be simulated just fine by your physical detents on your throttle system.

So, how did it go, now that the Chinook is out? Still got the F1 anyway?

w.i.p ICU blinking , EAPS warning, few questions.
Rongor replied to grim_reaper68's topic in DCS: CH-47F
He likely acknowledged the cautions before leaving the WCA page (so should you) so there isn't any issue with it for the remainder of the mission. -
I can confirm that only right and left are flipped, front and aft callouts are correct. Can't deliver a trackfile so far because this regularly only happens when 20 minutes or so into missions on MP servers so the trackfile would be rather large. Maybe somebody else is lucky? This issue is not that unimportantafter all.

couldn't find this so far, where to set the mode? Only found channel entry in the CNI page

Thanks for clarification

I don't think so, as the CDI needle indicating your offset wouldn't be of any use if the bearing would constantly update. Its supposed to present a track and how accurate you are maintaining on this track. If the n/i INS/GNS would prevent this, we wouldn't have any initial track in the first place.

Oh I see, didn't notice sadly no distance readout

I find the hovering characteristics pretty decent and stable -
This happens for me when I start the APU by a keybind (have all of these on switches in my simpit) instead of clicking. The tutorial for some reason waits for the mouseclick instead of checking for the APU to run.

Same here. -
There is no TACAN indication anyway. All you can do is listen to the morse IDs.
