Except it shoots down mavericks Yeah I mention that in the video but it’s boring so I don’t record that lol

I made a video on how to handle the SA-15 in the A-10. You may remember me from my 2019 smash hit "Not Another CDU Tutorial" give it a watch, if you would. or don't. Thanks.

Did my own test, where I saw the worst FLIR performance with A-10 and had the Apache to compare NineLine, new flir may be there, appreciate the test but I'm not sure why the A-10 and other modules seem to be so "sensitive" to the ground when the Apache is so easily able to distinguish whats the ground and whats a vehicle... (Apache on left, hawg on the right)

What map is this on? The issue is less with the vehicles and more with the terrain itself; if I could trouble you to run this test in Georgia you’ll see what I mean. I’m about to run it myself in an hour or so; I’ll post what I find.

I get that new FLIR is WIP, but there needs to be a workaround in the interim. Right now, it appears that whats "hot" and "cold" is tied to color of whats being looked at; ever since caucauses got the new textures, everything is camouflaged in FLIR in the A-10. I have a test mission with some T-72's in a cornfield, and they're practically invisible, old or new FLIR system. I'm super happy ED wants to make new meshes for all vehicles, but in the mean time we need something that makes hot vehicles stand out so the FLIR is at least playable in the mean time.

I'm guessing (hoping) it was a simple mistake, forgot to check the box for new API for hog, viper, and hornet and a soon to be released hotfix will actually deploy new FLIR API to these modules!

Appears to be old FLIR model for me as well; at least insofar as the A-10 is. I compared to apache FLIR and the texture of the terrain still camouflages vehicles.

What are some of the best things you've learned, seen, been told, read, or figured out about flying the hog? Everyone knows what a mark point is and how to auto lase, I'm talking things not in the flight manual. Tips. Techniques. Tricks. Share it here!

well of course I dont because they didn't work, so I switched them to less than 64. When bound higher, like that but just shifted down, DCS will not see them

well, that concerns me even more that my DCS can't see buttons greater than 64

I appreciate the updated tutorial, I'm still using 61 through 64, because my DCS doesn't seem to want to see buttons higher than that for whatever reason.

Figured it out. Must "create new profile" with proper model selected.

Title says it all. My 20210102 Virpil software sees my CM3 throttle as a CM2. At first, I didn't see this as such a bad thing considering the throttles are near identical but others have reported their CM3's being seen correctly. Anyone else have this problem? I've tried everything to get the software to see my throttle as a CM3... it just keeps coming up CM2 no matter what I do

Crap. So I might have flashed CM2 stuff to my CM3. Great... thanks for the replies, all! Will report back. EDIT: Figured it out. Need to "create new profile" with the correct model selected... that will fix it. THEN update firmware EDIT: AND NOW my finger slider and slew no longer work. Can't calibrate them. Wonderful! EDIT: Turns out you can't have the "5 way modifier" selected when creating a new profile. So that's fixed. But now still following your screenshots to the letter, I cannot for the life of me get DCS to recognize those buttons for the throttle cut off. I'm at my wit's end with this sucker. EDIT: Figured it out. DCS won't see buttons higher than button 64. When I used button 61 and 62 to be button 125 and 127 it worked... so that begs the question, how did you get buttons higher than 64 to work?

Literally exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much. I wish I could buy you a beer. While I still have you here, does your CM3 show up as a CM2 in the calibration software? mine does, as I understand it the only difference between the CM2 and CM3 are detents but I just wanna be sure EDIT: DCS doesn't seem to want to see button 125-128. The virpil software sees it though, any ideas?

Hi all, I might be one of the first lucky guys to get his CM3 throttle. I installed the finger lift to go behind idle cut off, but now I have a few questions. Do I calibrate the throttle to see the full range? or just from detent to max? If I calibrate from forward of detent to max, will the software still see behind the detent such that I can make a button for idle cut off? How to I make behind the detent a button so I can properly bind idle cutoff for most modern fighters (like A-10) Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, I did some searching on the fastest way to start an A-10, and I couldn't find much about it so I went and recorded a video about it myself. Enjoy.

Also, same mission the F-16's attack the final rampant APC with their M61 instead of a maverick like they say they will

Title says it all. The mission where you do the joint exercise with the polish F-16s for the first time, has an incorrect map picture in the FRAGO pics.

Insanely difficult. I think mostly due to the poor accuracy of the GBU-38's... about 50% of the time, they will miss the SA-9 entirely, and if they do he moves and now the coordinates are worthless. Would also be nice to know that the only weapon you carry that can scratch those bunkers are GBU38's. I repeated the mission about 5 times for various reasons... bombs missed their targets, wingman CFIT, wingman refuses to attack targets (he likes attacking the right bunker but will ignore the left, even if told to attack target at my SPI) I eventually became frustrated enough to just load on a few more GBU12's to get the job done. I'm not saying the mission is too hard, but it might be worth mentioning in the briefing that you need ALL 4 GBU38's to complete the mission, and none can miss. The bunkers shrug off any other weapon.

The briefing mentions 3 UH-1's, while the FRAGO says 3 Mi-8's Not a big deal obviously, but just thought I'd say something. Campaign is incredible so far! Thank you for being the first campaign content for the A-10 II!

This is what I was looking for, Thanks!

HMCS DMS Right Long ceases function After a while of flying, my DMS Right long to move TPOD to HMCS boresight stops working, and the TPOD keeps going to a random fixed location. I tried STBY and AG'ing the pod to reset, but no luck. Happens about halfway through the track, you can see me looking around trying to find out where my TPOD goes when I DMS R long. This track also contains the bug where the TMS R short to make a mark point is no longer centered on bore, it appears to go to a random location near HMCS bore. (Already reported, might be related to aircraft bank?) I found this bug because I had planned to TMS R short, TMS R long, and then china hat forward long to bypass the DMS R long not working :joystick: Track file was too big for here, so here's a link to my google drive where I uploaded it https://drive.google.com/file/d/1l8_45ejvkQ8TNWJGSDUDcks0zzqto8hD/view?usp=sharing

I've been searching, and even googling but no luck with the following questions. In the interest of saving as much gas as possible, what is the most efficient take off and climb in the Eagle to FL370? (combat ceiling) I saw the grim reaper's video on combat climb, but that's all. Is there ever a time where 3 bags are worth it? or is the drag from the center bag just always negating the benefits? What is best endurance in the eagle at 370? I understand a lot of these answers are dynamic based on atmosphere, weight, etc but I just need some guide lines to go on. Anything regarding performance, charts or documents etc, would be appreciated.
