Mowgli

comparable to the Eagle but superior in many respects:music_whistling:

I also recently returned to FC3 with the intention to learn the new flight module of the Flanker - I understand your frustration but try to look at it as a challenge, like one member wrote here in the forum: "people ask for realism but when the get it they complain & unable to deal with it" I'm still learning this amazing beauty, that's the reason why I'm not flying MP yet, but once U get to understand the importance of trim and the way she reacts to speed and weight changes your gonna enjoy every minute with her in the air.:pilotfly:

Agree with every word

You should get familiar and practice with the gun funnel since when your in the middle of a dogfight not always you have the time to switch to close combat mode and then lock the target. from your question it seems that your using the keyboard - if your new to DCS than welcome and get yourself a stick asap:joystick:

Waiting for the Videos...the very well edited videos:thumbup:

Here is the proof for the Flankers capabilities : if an Israeli Eagle landed without one wing the Flanker can do it with none:lol:

Mav - looked at the posts here but couldn't find what kind of mods are o.k. with 104th server? any missile mod that you checked and approve? is there a posted list with the mods allowed? looks like fellow simmers really enjoyed the last missions on 104th server - East against West. gonna master my Flanker a bit more and join the server for lots of real fun and excitement thanks

now this is a setup to aspire for...:thumbup:

I remember 4 months ago when I upgraded from DELL Optiplex 790 SFF:noexpression: to the specs you see in my signature. Nvidia card for sure (I did the move after years with AMD cards) Intel processor from i5 and above rest of the hardware you can statistically figure out from the posts here whatever u choice - congrats

Definitely the Mi-8 : the other two are first modules of DCS so lot's of guides about them

Thanks for the info - gonna practice tonight with the Flanker's radar and I will see how the new knowledge come's in handy...:joystick: * why is it that when I lock a target I get the LA text on the hud but I don't hear the audio repeating "launch authorized"?

well?

wow - so this is how the current map is going to look - amazing and to think what the DCS community is going to gain with all the brilliant & talented moders out there who will add more beauty to EDGE

Exorcet , Ironhand - Thanks for the info:thumbup: new to the Flanker so guys bare with me: did some radar practice locking up different bandits - where can I see the identification of the bandit I locked? Eagle? Viper? Tomcat? how can I know the type of enemy I'm against?

Wow - than it is truly the first time that I understand the meaning of "scaling" the radar - it actually means that I'm scaling the display and not the range that the radar beam is traveling? ? ? MMM....than what do the numbers represent? Thanks

Going over the radar mission tutorial - Two questions need to be clarified : * From the discussion here it seems that by default the Su-27 radar is always on full extension/power - it doesn't have the feature/ability like the Eagle to change the range of the radar cone 10-20-40-80-160. Is this how it works with the real Su-27 radar or it's simply how it's modeled in DCS? * Expected target range indication - how do you use it and can it's full feature and advantages be explained? Thanks

wanted to clarify about the new EDGE engine : why is it that all the videos and images that are released are taken from the Nevada map? when EDGE is released the first patch will be for the current map right? thanks

haaaa - gonna master this beauty a bit more and try this cobra maneuver on her...

Actually like a wet dream - after flying the p-51 & Saber for a while I returned to FC3 and this time to the Flanker. learning it from the basics , flying at nights - each lesson per night. fell in love with this beauty - for the first time familiarizing how her body reacts to my touch with her new advanced flight model. yes she reacts gently and she is very responsive - trimming is the key. read my description above - might be that your not mature enough?

Thanks for the reference - useful

wow - nice pictures, wish I could walk among those old war birds:pilotfly:

Mustang, Thanks for the effort. I have a broad band Internet so I downloaded the whole package but for the sake of other users maybe it's a good idea to upload a second link only with the modified lua? Thanks mate

Great work, using the Russian mod. :thumbup:

Absolutely right - if I don't apply the High.lua the FPS is steady on maximum available with my system. The thing is that I don't want to mess a lot with this file since there are many parameters that I don't understand how they affect the scenery. is there a specific parameter or maybe few parameters that I can change back to default or decrease the amount so I don't get that sudden frame drop from 60 and altogether get the look that mustang intended? Thanks
