I have trimmed with the control indicator open last night and on my end neutral trim is reached just as the neutral trim light illuminates when trimming left after the AFCS check. It's right on the edge of the lamp indicator. I trimmed with the indicator as a reference and it looked like I reached roughly neutral trim just before the lamp comes on. I then tapped the trim hat left and the light came on but that already indicates a very slight trim to the left. So if you just go by the aileron neutral light make sure you trim back to the right until the light goes off then tap left again and trim should be roughly neutral. If not you will experience a left roll on take off. https://forum.dcs.world/topic/379459-controller-deadzonecurves-dont-activate-until-mid-flight-uncommanded-left-roll/#findComment-5697886

@BIGNEWY I ovbserve the same behaviour. Checking the control indicator that was introduced with the patch today showed that the center point for aileron trim appears to be at the precise point where the light comes on at the panel. If you trim for center after the AFCS check and trim it a little further than that, it introduces left aileron trim according to the indicator. First image: Light is still off - Trim is almost perfectly center: Second and third image: I tap the trim hat left once. Light comes on but the control indicator already indicates a very slight aileron trim to the left Aileron_Trim_CWG_Fulcrum.trk

I notice the same. you can see it in my video here: Attached is a short track Lag_spike_on_taxi_CWG_Fulcrum.trk

Thanks @BIGNEWY, It's obvious that this is actually how the gauge is labelled in real aircraft but I wouldn't expect this from a coldwar jet build in the 80ies, so I was wondering how this came to be.

Maybe people misunderstand my question. It's not about the DCS implementation, it's about the actual aircraft. Someone tagged it as "check cockpit language last night", hence my edit and the screenshot.

Yes I know, hence my question. I find this peculiar.

Here is a screenshot. Note that the other instruments are labelled in Russian except for the RPM gauge, hence my question

Yes, change the units in the gameplay settings to metric. Imho this needs to be changed asap. Binding it to the native avionics option or putting it in the special options tab as a separate option are acceptable solutions to me. The units set in general gameplay options shouldn't effect cockpit instruments of individual modules.

Does anyone know why the RPM gauge is labelled using the latin alphabet? I have found photos of the real cockpit where this is also the case and I find it very odd as everything else seems to still use the Cyrillic alphabet. Was the MiG-29A really delivered from factory with the RPM gauge labelled like this or is that a later addition? Edit: No, it does not depend on the cockpit language. Every other instrument is labelled in Russian using the Cyrillic alphabet except for the RPM Gauge which is labelled "RPM", not "обороты". I found photos of a real MiG-29A cockpit showing the same. My question is whether this was a later modification or for some reason the export version had a single instrument labelled using a English designation in the latin alphabet

The unit option in the gameplay options should not influence the units on cockpit instruments as well. This belongs in the special tab for each module, not in the general gameplay settings. I don't want to switch to metric every time I step into a russian cockpit and then back to imperial when I'm flying a western aircraft.

This shouldn't be marked as correct as is imho. It should be dependant on the special options tab for the module or dependent on setting the avionics language to native, not dependant on whether my units is set to metric or imperial. Switching the setting every time dependant on the module you want to fly is not a good solution

I rented a Reverb G2 in 2021 and immediately ordered my very own the first weekend of flying VR, the rest is history. I haven't flown in 2D since.

As the title suggest the M117/M116 tail fuzes don't work as intended. They can be selected with a 5s or 11s function delay but the bombs explode on impact instead. Track is attached. Nose fuzes are plugged, AN-65 have an 11s delay, the AN-64 has a 5s delay fuzes.trk

Most of the old infrastructure is gone but a lot of the more prominent landmark buildings/structures have become part of the "Route der Industriekultur". There are quite a few older water towers that have been repurposed for all kinds of different stuff or are simply part of one of the industrial heritage sites. The steel water towers are mostly gone by now but there are a few examples left standing. Their design was quite varied though. Some with spherical tanks like we see on the CWG map, others with cylindrical tanks etc. Edit: a few examples Historischer Wasserturm Süd (Duisburg Wedau) Wasserturm von Thyssen Krupp in Bochum Lanstroper Ei

They are fairly typical for water towers in the Ruhr Area, usually water towers that are located at industrial sites like steel mills. We also have brick water towers here but more commonly with a round or cylindrical tank at the top, not a pointy roof like that

Yeah, it downloaded 25GB with 1Gbit/s and now it's jumping between a few kB/s and 10MB/s

Ah, the way you formulated that made me think that you didn't

Hop in the back seat and set the INS knob to align when the red light is off (indicating that the system is warmed up), then once the green light is flashing you can set it to nav. Jester still starts the warm-up for the INS, you just have to initiate the alignment and set it into nav mode once it's finished

Just so you can get another data point, I have an Asus 5090 ROG Astral. With the OC BIOS in DCS VR (Reverb G2) it pulls about 400-470W, temps rarely go above 65°C on the GPU and 70°C on the memory. I was flying the Phantom over the Cold War Germany map today and GPU temps were mostly around 60°C +/- and memory around 65-70°C with an ambient temperature of around 20°C. This is with the middle fan and rear fan limited to 55% RPM, if I'd have it on auto it would be few degrees cooler. It's a huge expensive brick but I am quite happy with the VR Performance. I tuned it to get mostly 90fps on a Reverb G2 but of course flying low over big cities I do see quite a few drops, for example flying in formation with three Phantoms over Berlin in MP I saw drops down to 70ish fps in some situations when I had the mirrors active, jumps between 80-90fps without the mirrors. Of course coming from a 3080TI the 5090 is a massive upgrade but I don't think it's worth it if you already have a 4090.
