Officially it will be released on Open Beta 1.5.8

AFAIK the nozzle rotation for STO depends on aircraft weight. But as a general value, it will be between 50 to 70.

The aircraft has a quite complex systems that while easy to use are hard to develop. We had to choose on a series of features to be ready so you could fly the aircraft as soon as possible with constant updates to enable the rest.

I haven't been able to find any information on the expendable jammers. My best guess is that these are noisemakers preset for a specific frequency, probably to jam SAMs.

Yes. That's the idea.

Confident. The aircraft was in beta test since September. More time than the M-2000C was. So a lot of the rough edges have been sanded by now.

ED.

I don't know on their status, but if they can be modeled, they will.

Yes. It can be done, except for certain video modes.

Those are the instructions how to use the paint kit.

He is working on training scenarios for both Caucasus and Nevada. Basic and Tactical flight.

I can't say because that is not my dept. For the EA release we made USMC liveries available, beyond that I don't know.

We need a translator. Somebody offered and translated it to Chinese. Another one offered to translate it to Spanish. It is up to you at this time. We do not have the resources to do translations and localization. PM me if you are interested.

Be nice, please. It still is a place where those who want to make their own liveries can get ideas.

That's about right. Thanks. :smartass:

There are two parts of finger checks> "One finger check" because it is initiated and confirmed by signaling with the index finger extended. "Two or Five finger check" which refer to the engine performance evaluation, flaps and nozzle movement. Two finger if you are not going to use water. Five finger if you are using water. When the pilot is ready for a dry takeoff (no water) he signals with two extended fingers. If he is going to use water in the takeoff, he uses five extended fingers.

Hello folks. We have an AV-8B NA paint-kit ready, only there is a problem: The package is nearly 1 Gb of data. 896 MB to be exact. We are not going to include the kit with the release, it is too big, but we want to make it available to those interested. So I need ideas of how to do that. Thanks in advance.

Well, my pilot friend never claimed he had that mishap but he did say that flying inverted trying to recover dropped NVG or visor parts is a given.

Why is it that I never learn not to say "The last update"? The pocked guide has been updated for typos and included a section about how to swap the sun visor for the NVG and vice versa in flight. Yes, it can be done. I was told so by a current USMC pilot. It is lengthy prone to errors and be ready for being the target of your wingman's jokes (and your squadron) if you drop any piece inside the cockpit forcing you to do some acrobatic maneuvers to get it back.

Thrustmaster Cougar MFDs presets are now included.

We hope to have a paint kit available soon.

These are the liveries included in the release. VMA-211 (two versions) VMA-214 (two versions) VMA-223 (two versions) VMA-231 (three versions) VMA-311 (two versions) VMA-513 (two versions) VMA-542 VMAT-203 (two versions)

The last update before release. This is not the final version. It will be updated as other systems are enabled, but that will happen after the release. Sections added: Landing Systems (landing gear and NWS). DECM Operational modes. Study it my friends, the examination tool will arrive soon.

Dream all you want. But go to bed early on the 28th because Santa comes to DCS on the 29th. :smartass:

The carrier has reaction control nozzles on the wing tips the tail and under the nose. Those provides pitch, yaw and roll control when in hover mode.
