Lao Fei Mao

Did you pressed "H” to hold the altitude before contact? It works like this.And with the auto thrust you can may easily to get closer and maintain same speed with the tanker. But one annoy thing is that the tanker somehow can't maintain a level flight, the refueling hose goes up and down between 1 or 2 meters, thus it becomes difficult to plug in your refueling probe. How to let the tanker had a absolute level flight, any guys know it?

------You get the point. I noticed the nose wheel snapping violently some times if keeping NWS engaged. And the F-15C is easier sliding aside if disengaged the NWS than SU-27.

--------Smart key mapping, thus can keep pressing "Q"and"W"at the same time.

To disengage the F-15C nose wheel steering, you have to keep pressing "LAlt+Q", but you only need to press one time "LAlt+Q" when you are in Su-27. Is it a bug or meant to be in RL? I prefer the one time press.

And Mirror on&off has an obvious FPS difference especially when you on the ground or low attitude flying.

-------I have the same feeling. If you compare the A-10 and F-15 in Lockon 2, you may find the hud glass is much wider, but in Lockon2, dunno know why they became so narrow, so we have to move our head closer to view all the info on the hud. Bad feeling. And ED seems forgot to check and review this for 3 years.:doh:

Another noob question for help. I notice there are three little red "off" flag in the ADI, since we can't flip or tune any knob around the ADI like we did in KA-50 or A-10C, is there a keyboard press to ucage the ADI?

------For briefing, I only read the mission goal, didn't bother myself to remember the assigned altitude of each course. :D

-------Thanks, I'm gonna take a look. I can't figure out why it doesn't show on the HUD altitude scale, whilst the designated bearing mark does. A real shortcoming.

----No, I want to know the designated altitude but not the altitude scale on the right of HUD, just want to know how high am I supposed to flight.

Bascially I'm a casual player and addicted to russian jets. Recently I tried the American F-15C, seems easier control than the Su-27 PFM. And I got a noob question---I can't find the designated altitude indicator on HUD or Instruments(but Flanker do have it), only the designated bearing on the upper scale of HUD. Can anybody give me a hint? Thanks ahead.

+1 ED indeed lacks human resource to fully achieve their ambitions. Focuse on the engine developing and let 3rd parties do the modelling, and share the profit with them. Why not?

Thanks for the info, gonna take a look.

---:thumbup:Nice connection and cool rudder pedals(what brand?)

I confirm that the Flanker is now more tendentious to pitch up if comparing the old version or other jets. Dunno know if it is supposed to be or a bug. Currently I prefer to fly F-15C and Su-33.

Yeah，I prefer to fly f-15c like your second screenshot. But the hud size really ruins my mood. Strongly suggest a size adjustable HUD.

It seems that 1.5.7 increased the reflection effect on glass. Last night, when I flied the Su-27, I can barely read the instruments under the great reflection.

Full metal stick is always the one I'd ever dreamt. Gotta have one to fly the F/A-18C later this year. Thanks a lot for your effort.

Clean and tough design, thumbs up!

---------So the HDD display is normal, though kind of useless to repeat the HUD display. And I have to maitain 80%+ RPM in landing procedure, feel weird as if Mig-29 is heavier than Flanker.

Dunno if they are bugs or supposed to be: 1. The HDD of MiG-29 doesn't show the planned course when in navigation mode, just keep the same pattern of HUD. But the Su-27's HDD works well. 2. The Tachometer has reached 100% whilst the throttle be pushed to around 80%, after that, you have to press two times of "Page UP" on the keybord to obtain the maxium power. So I suspect the Tachometer doesn't sync with the throttle. By the way, the idle speed shows is also much higher than Su-27.

As title, I request Alipay as a payment method in E-shop. There are more than 1 billion people use it on the earth. Even Steam support it. So, come on ED, don't neglect it. You might get more order.

------2.5 is not coming, but will come out finally, might be the end of next year.:D

--------A simulator like DCS with an editor aborbs more SP players instead of MP ones. So the number of running servers doesn't represent of true potential jets fliers. Severs have internet regional limitation, sometiems I really tire of the latency, I prefer to quit the server and fly own edited missions.:doh:

------Well, I do hope so. And I do hope ED business get more and more booming.Thus they can invest much and hire more devs and boost the develop of official or 3rd party's maps. May some day, when I open the editor, there are dozens of terrain to choose, like we did in ArmA3's editor.
