They absolutely changed something. The aircraft is totally different on takeoff. I can pull the stick back and hammer the throttle wide open now, no rudder needed on takeoff roll. I thought i remembered a while back seeing something that said they were going to tighten the tail wheel lock up a little bit?

I recently converted from steam to standalone because id rather ED recieve all my money instead of part of it from steam. When i opened up the standalone, only my a10, huey, and p51 showed up. My F86 and F15 show the "buy" button. How do i fix this?

I am waiting for the AFM and steam release. I will surely be picking up this bird.

Steam and DCS? I would like to purchase C-101. Problem is, I have the steam version of the sim. Is there anyway around this? From what I've heard the steam version will not accept modules purchased from the ED store? If so, why are some models not included in steam?

I don't have time to read the other replies but I noticed that if you don't push the thump button next to the throttle on the collective handle and then rotate the throttle up and back to idle, the engine will not light off. ESS bus should have nothing to do with it. It just selects what the voltmeter reads off of.

But!, I have no idea how to make it work. Any help?

So I'm diving in on a target and active pause. A few seconds later I get dual flame outs. No big deal, im at 20,000 feet I think. I slowly turn towards friendly airspace and start a slow glide. The left engine lights off first or second try and I push her up to about half throttle, trim the airplane and begin the start sequence on the right engine. After about 10 minutes fumbling around it finally lights off when I dive sharply. Now ive got power but the guidance systems are all inop. How do you reset the cdu/guidance systems in flight? I landed at a friendly airport near the front line to shut everything down and restart but then I cant get the engines to restart, they just hang start. What are the proper procedures here?

Did some more flight testing. On the grass at the airfield she takes off and lands just fine. I didn't realize that the crop fields in DCS have different bump mapping. If I bring the mustang in and pull her back to about 90 knots and full flaps shell set down in a 3 point ok. Still haven't had success with 30 degree flaps or 2 point landings. Whenever I try to set it on the mains, no matter how slow the decent rate, I still get kicked into the air.

I have been around aviation my entire life. Im a current A&P certified mechanic. I have no doubt that the struts are too firm. When my decent rate is half of what my ascent rate is after my wheels touch, there is a problem.

The struts are way too bouncy.

I noticed the p51 in game has no trunk tank fuel gauge? Is this accurate? if so do you just fly until she runs out? Also, has anybody been successfully able to land or takeoff in grass? The thing is literally uncontrollable off the cement. Not to mention it bounces like hell on landing. Also, do all 3 guns only fire for the first so much of ammunition fired? I noticed only my I/b guns were firing after a short time. No damage. Oh, also, I did some sound mods and for some reason my starter cannot be heard in the cockpit anymore. The file is there but no sound in game? Amazing sim though. I hope ED fixes the very few issues this sim has.

I don't have that either. I just realized that there is a hardcopy version of this game. I have the steam version.

For some reason I don't have that listing in my start menu. You wouldn't happen to know where it is in the dcs world folder?

I don't get an error. My p51 just sounds like a wind up toy.
