Yep, that did the trick. Thought I was checking that they were on but misremembered the dials. Thanks for the fast response!

I wanted to give the Mirage campaign a try, but upon starting the first mission, I can't hear my flight lead who I presume is talking to me. The documentation says to turn the battery on so that the radios work, and I'm obviously doing this? I've tried all the channels mentioned (1--4) on the green radio and still can't hear my lead. What freq should I be set to? Thanks

Great work. Hope to check it out later.

I've seen this too. Please fix.

There is no difference, and installing FC3 will install all those planes.

Nice find!

Yes please!

Aren't you talking about different things? Missile g limit vs. how hard the aircraft can manoeuvre when firing.

You're a machine, Sid. Good work.

Thanks buddy, I was gonna look into a fix like that after I heard what the official plans are.

This is what I used to have, and I think it's great. I want the most realistic cockpit layout and at the same time not to be completely helpless when I forget a switch. Is there any way for me to have this now, or are the changes permanent?

Thanks for the reply. In that case, yeah, I'd say the transition should be smoother; that was the primary reason I assumed it was a bug. Keep it up, she's improving at a great pace!

I set down on the main gear, idle the throttle and deploy speed brakes, and continue aero-braking on my back wheels. To make sure the throttle is idle, I push it forward slightly and then back again; you can hear this change in engine note at 0:22 . Then I apply the brakes and let the aircraft tip onto the nosewheel. As soon as I do this, the engine aperture relaxes and the engine note changes. Note that the throttle remained at idle during all this. This is a bug, right? It's reproducible. I have verified my axis settings, nothing is interfering with my throttle. I am using the toe brakes on my pedals to wheel brake.

Not the worst bug in the world, and I'm not sure if it's a quirk in DCS or whatever, but I might as well report it anyway.

Also: - Closing the cover over the anti-skid switch, when it's turned to OFF, visually flicks the switch to ON, but according to the warning light it doesn't affect its function.

home-on-jam, I believe.

Has anybody been able to get 2.0.1?

This thread was very good but has devolved into "feelings" about how draggy that nosecone is. If we wanna convince ED that there's something wrong enough to change, we need to do better. Could someone good at 3D modelling make a model of the front from pictures, perhaps? Then we might be able to calculate the drag. EDIT: I had an unrefreshed version of the thread, there have been some helpful posts since :)

Very reasonable approach. That's certainly not worse than being able to use padlocking, labels etc etc via keyboard shortcuts.

I've criticized Belsimtek's beta policy many times, but the Mi-8 wasn't as incomplete as this is. And the Hawk and Aviojet both suffered from a programmer leaving/getting fired (the same one?). Those are not exactly flattering examples.

There are no flaps.

It's remarkable that this is your first DCS module. After 20 mins in the air (and about 10 in external view on the ground, drooling) I absolutely love it.

180-190 kts is far too fast, as we concluded in some thread somewhere. I also noticed that the nose stayed high even when completely hands-off. Bug or aerodynamic feature/FBW? I don't know!

I set it down on the main gear and left the nose high for aero braking, and even let go of the stick. She just held her attitude. I even went into external view, completely hands off. So well-behaved! Feels incredibly sharp in AA mode in the air, christ what a machine.

It's one of the most beautiful modules in DCS. I'm floored by the quality of the model and cockpit, holy crap. Fantastic. Just such a pity that the mirrors are inop right now, would have completed the picture.
