I just uploaded a nice kneeboard to the user files downloads. All based on pilot’s notes. Tks for the manuals, gents.

Thank you, Reflected. It was that. Now I am flying both Zone 5 and Fear the Bones Campaigns. All the best, Sydy

Gents, It worked aok now. The main problem was that the CAT 2 was full of parked F-18s. I went for the CAT 1 this time and never turned on the light until Connected on the Cat. Tks for the help. All the best, Sydy

Tks sLYFa, I tried that, but I will try again. What looks like is that the Launch Bar is not connected to the shuttle. All the best, sydy

Hi guys, I tried to fly the first mission on the Fear the Bones Campaign and I don't know what I am doing wrong. Crank it up, taxi to CAT (2 and 3 tested), follow the shooter instructions, connected to cap, the keeps signaling to revup with two fingers up, I do so (with AB and not, tried both), Salute him and no deal. All lights on (night ops), tried kneeling and not kneeling (he signaled "bar up"). Any tips? Tks

UN Pilot Mi-24P Hind Campaign (Huey Campaign Conversion)
Sydy replied to Bailey's topic in Missions and Campaigns
Thank you! I just flew the first mission! -
Hi guys, I decided to make my own Quick Checklist for the Mi-24P. As usual it is far from the real but quick to make you airborne. I added Day and Night Ops and a PDF for you. Mi-24P Quick Checklist. I hope you like it and feedback is well accepted. All the best, Sydy

Issues with campaign - What I am doing wrong?
Sydy replied to SVgamer72's topic in P-47D Wolfpack Campaign
Good, SVgamer! So far, I never had a P-47 engine failure following these tips. I just flew mission 8 and I made 2 more kills. It's embarrassing to admit I stole on AI kill (not intentionally), but so far I got 11 kills + 2 JU-88s strafed on the ground. As reflected said, these are not Hollywood missions. A lot of en-route navigation to a few moments of "terror"... LOL All the best, Sydy -

Sydy replied to SVgamer72's topic in P-47D Wolfpack Campaign
SVgamer72, hi! Well, I've seen a lot of engine trouble around and, if I may, here goes my humble tips: On the ground, warm up your engines properly. Maintain oil cooler and intercooler in Neutral. Period! After takeoff, Close the Cowl Flaps, Reduce your rpm to 2550 and leave it there! Period (in cruise, sometimes I bring it down to 2.400. Only if I coming back home ALONE I reduce it to 2150rpm to save fuel). Manifold as necessary. AI accelerations and climbs are on 52" and 2550rpm. If necessary, add more manifold (54" is ok and even WEP), but keep rpm 2550. Pay attention to your temps. If they go to high open to 3/4 open (never needed to full open it). Once ok, bring oil cooler and intercooler back to neutral. After takeoff is finished (above 1000ft), change to your external tanks. Use belly until it starves or you get in combat. If underwings, use you clock minute pointer as a cue. Minute 00 to 30 use right tank, 31 to 00 use the left tank. In cruise, you may reduce you mixture to LEAN. In combat, Use your main tank, Drop your externals. Mixture in Rich. Oil Cooler and Intercooler in Neutral or just a bit above neutral. Check rpm in 2550 (and leave it there). Use WEP when necessary only. When Feet-wet returning home, you may reduce RPM and Mixture to Lean. Good luck, Sydy -

Hi guys, Just to update the thread: Today I will post mission 6, which is quite nice and I got another kill. All the best, Sydy -
I installed it on saved games folder and I had no problem.

Hi guys, I just started the P-47D Wolfpack campaign it was a delight! On the very first mission (intro), the video hung in the middle and froze DCS so I had to terminate it via task manager. On 4k, the initial fps was just 17 and I thought "OMG, gonna have to lower stuff here", but surprisingly on the second attempt the fps went up to ~50 and kept there. This was the only bug so far. I loved the environment and I knew @Reflected would do a great job. I was right. So, the mission was to Escort Big Friends and, after being released, free hunting. If you want to jump in to action, here goes an index: 00:30-03:00 - Start up 05:30-06:30 - Takeoff 09:15 - Rendez-vous 14:30-18:45 - Dogfight (3 kills) 22:20-23:00 - Channel B Audio 25:00 - Disappointing Landing (LOL - it was horrible) Btw, I just uploaded it and YouTube takes time to process the high-res version of it. So, if it is just a 360 res vs, wait a bit and go back later to see it in 4k. Here it goes: If you want my Quick Reference Checklist, it is available on the DCS User Files Download page: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3310190/ Congratulations, Reflected! Awesome product. I will keep posting the videos on this thread as I produce it. All the best, Sydy
