Since the merge to 2.5 with the new Caucasus map, the radar in the Viggen isn't showing anything covered in trees. This is especially noticeable with ground avoidance mode. I have no idea if this is intended, but does the Speed tree tech have anything to do with it?

Hi Zeus, Following this update with green tint on all sensors. Would be be possible to make the darker shades on the hud navflir full transparent? It looks kinda weird to see black hot skies reflected on the hud glass during daylight

If people have trouble fighting against the AI P51P try this: When doing the dogfight mission you always start with an energy advantage, but the AI never spins and retains energy in zoom climbs. Try to stay above him and try to move behind him not towards him, and when fighting in the vertical as soon as you dive back to earth and got some nice speed(above 600kp/h) you can really turn nicely back to a climb. Don't use curves on the pitch axis, keep the input as linear as possible. You don't want any sudden acceleration in pitch if dogfighting becomes frantic. And as soon as your plane starts shaking, just ease on pitch input.

Hey guys im wondering if the Fixed and gyro reticles are correctly placed on the glass. I found this image browsing some manuals, wondering why the K14 had 2 projection lenses.

If you turn Master arm off and any CCRP weapons are selected, the CCRP Diamond disappears but no Flight path marker appears. This is only specific to the Mk82s and GBUs because the Flight path marker is exchanged for a CCRP diamond. This doesn't happen when you have CCIP specific weapons like the rockets or the snake eyes, because you still have a Flight path marker in CCIP mode.

Yeah would love to see the sight corrected to only a lock cue, and not seeing a circle tracking the target outside of the HUD.

Will the F14 A & B get a higher refresh rate HUD as a special option? (like the nosewheel steering option for the MiG21Bis)

You could always press right Alt+J when being near an airfield and low on fuel.

I think the nose camera has it's own telemetry overlay and is not recording through the combiner glass like other western/modern plane

Ruin a good landing

when the Su33 gets its PFM on landing the wings will fall of because of over G :megalol:

Nope, far from it.

No one noticed? http://imgur.com/a/ARZZJ

It looks like a MiG29A, and I'm afraid we can expect the PFM long after the Su33 and Spitfir.

Doesn't ground avoidance mode, map terrain infront in green,yellow and red for height on the radar display?

That is the housing of the VSD recording camera I think, infront of the VSD display is an angled piece of glass reflecting the image upwards. Here is a better picture of what I mean

Hey guys, Ive got something to share. I Had a Suncom F15E stick for a while and access to a seperate TM Warthog grip, ordered a 3D printed part and merged the two together. I'm still wondering how to jam the shifterboard inside the grip and whether to leave the Auto acquisition switch as it is or make it a 3 way switch as in the real deal or the Mirage(might even mod a 4-way CMS switch from the donor grip into it). The custom tailpiece is extended 2 to 3 Cm compared to the original TM tailpiece which adds to more stick travel. Curently a single-press button Auto acquisition switch. Not alot of room for a DMS/TMS 4 way switcher from the donor grip. The 2 sticks are close in dimensions and the small extension is really nice with helicopters or prop planes.

Are you modifying the Suncom F15 stick? Check Shapeways, someone just put some housings for a Thrustmaster HOTAS 4 way switch on it.

Hey guys, I've got a base from a Suncom F15E Talon for sale. I needed the stick for another project and thought about using the base for a Handbrake mod or lefthandstick, but I have no need for it anymore.

The F-15 is surely is maneuverable, but it still can't outclimb an R27:( Make the Eagle great again:P

So the Su25T has something comparable to the A10A's TISL? Have you tried this in the A10A too? Would be sweet if the Pennypod/TISL worked

I was wondering if the mig29 relied on waypoints, or only used radio navigation. does it use an INS?

F-15D would also fit nicely in an NTTR environment .
