I can confirm that the same happens in Blue Flag Normandy.

It still took 3+ years to get there.

The era of the 500+ pages long manuals is gone, I'm afraid. The A-10C and Ka-50 manuals are relics of the past for modules that are "complete" development-wise. With the accelerated development cycles and the nature of Early Access, I think you'll have to wait a few years before you get manuals as in-depth as the Ka-50 one for the Hind.

The winch works, you have to disengage the braking lever first. However, no trailing antenna is visible on the external model.

Hi guys, I noticed that next to the side door, there was a winch with a long wire. After a little research, it seems that the Mossie was equipped with a HF radio trailing antenna (aerial) that could be reeled out or reeled in. I haven't been able to find any pictures or photos of what this trailing aerial looked like when reeled out, nor how it was operated to transmit. Does anyone have any information on that? The best I could find was this forum post... https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234908404-mosquito-aerials-state-of-confusion/

I have a bit of a trivia question for the Mossie experts among you... what is the placard next to the Radio Channel Frequencies? It lists a "L" and "R" column, which I assume to be for left and right... but apart from that I don't know what these values represent. Does anyone have an idea?

On the Engine Data Plate behind the throttle, the text reads: Automatic Supercharger Gear Change Switch Operates at 21000 ft •For Maximum Combat Climb – AUTO •For Maximum Lever Speed – MOD. Up to 23500 ft Merlin 113 & 114 The "Maximum Lever Speed" line should read "Maximum Level Speed". On the Undercarriage Emergency Placard, there is another typo on point 3. It says "op to 4 minutes" instead of "up to 4 minutes".

The quest for knowledge continues. Really hoping ED can provide some help with all this. I found an interesting video about the R1155 DF. Setting the R1155 Mode Selector to Visual and turning on the Beam Approach Power switch allows you to use the DF Indicator on the front panel. Changing the loop antenna orientation will make the needles on the indicator move. Not quite sure if the results I have make sense. Link: https://youtu.be/POyFjwUZg_c

Hi folks, I was very happy to see that the T1154 Radio Transmitter set and the R1155 Radio Receiver set were both implemented in the game. However, I,ve noticed that the documentation is somewhat lacking in how to use them. As an example, I created a mission with a unit transmitting a morse signal on a set frequency (say, 8 MHz). The following questions I have for the Eagle Dynamics team @NineLine@BIGNEWY@SUNTSAG are: How do I set up a mission with a beacon that I can home on using the direction finder? How do I use the direction finder? Is there a step-by-step procedure you could provide us? I assume we would need to set up this frequency on the R1155 box. How do we transmit on the T1154 radio? There appears to be preset frequencies but I'm not 100 % sure how to set them up. On the D/F antenna, there are two heading scales; one in red, and one in black. What's the difference between these scales? Which one should be used? How do we use the Direction FInding indicator on the front panel (the one above the bomb setting panel)? After playing with a bunch of switches, here are some of my preliminary findings. I don't know if that's the correct procedure... a) The T1154 Power switch has to be ON. b) The T1154 Master Switch has to be to Standby in order to be able to use the receiver set c) To track the direction of a radio signal, the aerial type selector has to be set to DF (Direction Finding), the frequency has to be set on the R1155 box and the R1155 has to be set to Figure-of-Eight. d) Turning the DF Loop Antenna will make the audio signal stronger or weaker since you change the orientation of the antenna. From the source of the "weakest" signal (not the strongest, as I initially thought), you can determine the direction of the radio signal source.

Premature releases? No thanks. I'd rather have the ED team take the time they need. Botched releases must never happen again.

Oh, but I do.

Where's my Mossie Monday video? We wants it. We needs it! (creepy Gollum scream)

Absolutely.

Very excited about this bird! Will delayed fuzes be available for bombs?

Have you tried clearing your cache?

Hi everyone! Time to learn the Mi-24. Enjoy! DCS Mi-24P Hind https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BGFVa1HwuwGXunNQ_mEMwycXciApUD6j/view?usp=sharing

The Mi-24P Hind guide is now live! See first post.

Think about my poor heart condition, Newy... hgnnn!

A solid team for a kickass plane. Couldn't ask for a better match.

Sure.

@sublimeIs the procedure in the guide wrong?

It's being worked on.

Ok, so... will the logic be reverted to what it was before or will it remain as is? Asking for a guy... that may or may not be writing a guide for it.

That's not what he means. "O" works to toggle between OBSERV ON or OFF. Keyboard bindings are fine; the problem lies with the Joystick bindings for those of us who do not want to use a keyboard when operating the aiming sight. If you want to use a joystick binding ... double-clicking on the OBSERVE - OFF or on the OBSERVE - ON / OFF does nothing and does not allow you to map any joystick button on this functionality. Wth the limited amount of buttons on the stick we have, it is more practical to have one button mapped to toggle the B2 switch.

Does this mean the switch should be left to UP position during normal operation or DOWN? There are two ways to interpret the switch: Logic 1: UP position opens the isolation valve, DOWN position closes the isolation valve Logic 2: UP position turns ON the Fuel Delimiter and closes the isolation valve, DOWN position turns OFF the Fuel Delimiter and opens the isolation valve If the light indeed says ISOLATION VALVE CLOSED and is correct for a Mi-24P, then the current behavior modelled in DCS reflects Logic 2. The start-up procedure listed in DCS right now sets the switch to UP, constantly displaying the CLOSED light... which seems to be at odds with the flight manual instructions (which imply that the isolation valve should be open during normal operation).
