Hi, It's been a few weeks since I last flew the ka503 thanks to Normandy 2! However the gun seems to have changed. When the gun was selected in the past, it used to put up the box on the hud noting the guns limits that it could turn in. I could slew the shval with the hmd to a target and the gun would auto lock it and I could engage it so long as the target was in the box. Now I don't get a targeting box when the gun is selected, and when I slew the shval to a target the gun doesn't lock on to it when I fire. Intact the gun doesn't move, it just stays pointing straight ahead. I have the laser on and the target it locked btw. Is there a new procedure I am missing here? Or is it a bug. Kind regards Chris.

Hi, In my opinion a response of 15 seconds 20 at most would be better? Also is there need for a delay in friendly positions, as they would just surely shout up on radio where they were? Ta anyways

whilst waiting for the scoreboard to update i saw this achievement awarded to the lowest player ..... https://flic.kr/p/2jn2p4B

Hi everybody … Recently got into ww2 props, and now I hardly fly much else. Dora is my favourite. I've heard whilst flying and watching youtube videos, other peoples ideas on how the planes should perform and how you should deploy it. So I have been trying to fly using the hit and run tactics on the storm of war server. I have noted that if I run in and engage a bandit and egress straight out, without making hardly any turns and full throttle mw50 etc, a circling P51 will be able to catch up with me. I debated adding a climb to my speedy egress, however I was not confident I would lose the stang! I also noted when going out to sea on a long constant gradual climb to high altitude to intercept bombers, I turned around to see a P51 sat point blank behind me. He clearly had been there a while, noting I hadn't seen him due to no rear mirror, and was lining his guns up to shoot me down just before I engaged the bomber. He shot me down no worries lol. I had my engine pretty much maxed, and he was living his best life trolling me haha. I love the dora, but am not sure how best to deploy it now. Could probably do with flying with other dora pilots to be fair.

Thanks man, so make sure auto prop govern is on! Auto start not use it for T/O?

Theres a default trim setting you adjust in the options i think for ailerons and rudder. Thing is I dont understand if I need + or - for downward nose trim? Also to be fair i thought the 109 was auto everything like the 190 lol. I take off and 20 seconds later my engine.goes bang and I glide down to the ground again. Duont know what's going wrong, thought auto start sorted everything...... ������

Hi guys, thought it best post on here in this thread about dog fighting in the Dora rather than create a new post. Essentially in the last month I have really got in to warbirds, however I'm new and clearly not very good. I fly the 190d the most and just like it. I do as you guys have been mentioning, fast attack runs no turning etc. I find though that the spits seem to be able to keep up and get rounds off on me. If I try gradually climbing they are still there behind me. So I'm a bit perplexed as I cannot seem to shake them by extending. Obviously my throttles full forward. It's on the SoW server so MW50 is disabled.

Latest modern one please please please

Kengou do you have to manually enter it everytime or is there a shutout to copy and paste the co-ords?

Hi, I can use the JDAMS on the harrier in TOO mode, and to engage multiple ground targets at once through the CAS page, when the targets are marked on the F10 map as shown in many online videos. What I wanted to know, is can I populate my targets in the CAS page myself, by inputting the co-ordinates manually or by importing the co-ordinates directly from a skewed tgp pod? I ask as sometimes the enemy aren't visible on the F10 map, and if I have to use them one by one I might as well take lgbs.

Thanks for the pointer Deano, you know what I mean about the rocking from side to side though when your super slow before bringing it down? I have tried 22 on the X and Y axis curve, so i'm hoping this will help. Ill also try to watch my decent rate.

Hi, I am just after some tip, other than to keep practising because I am still doing that I swear, on how to reduce that side to side wobble you seem to get at very low speed when coming in for a vertical landing. The biggest factor I think Is small small inputs and to resist the urge to overcorrect, and trim it out. However it does still do it occasionally and sometimes she does start rocking from side to side prior to being put down. I'm after some tips if anyone has any on how to reduce this or best to combat against it? I have a thrustmaster t16000 and I have introduced a small deadzone (8) on both axis', which has helped in general with flying the jet. I have heard about introducing or increasing the joystick curve, but I know nothing about this, or what is considered a 'normal' curve. I will experiment with it, as I have left it linear by default. tia guys Gryphon.

IR mavs can take what seems like an age to warm up, but as someone has mentioned above they aren't too great for day time.

Patch came out and it logs in fine as normal now. Thanks to BigNewy and everyone at ED that solved the issue. I am grateful to get to test the OB release, and appreciate the quick fix!
