Magnetic Declination is factored into the SIM in DCS. Varies year to year at specific locations as well, which is also factored into DCS.

To make a very, very long story relatively short, the majority of airbases in DCS are incorrectly modeled/placed insofar as their geographical locations are concerned. As a consequence great discrepancies exist insofar as True Headings/Magnetic Headings and calculations regarding magnetic declination are concerned. It is this error which then also filters down to the CDU. Best course of advice is to rely solely on the fictitious DCS Airbase approach charts as provided in the Docs folder for ILS navigation. And no, problem is not solvable at this stage. Workaround is the custom charts as stated above.

Maybe. Maybe not. Everything is subject to change.

Cm'on Yo-Yo just throw the plane already so we can see........This curiosity is nibblin' me a whole new orifice :D

Not at all.

If you accidentally engage afterburner you're in serious danger of falling off the EDGE of the map.........:pilotfly:

There is a sale, albeit at slightly edited/rectified values/numbers. ED made a mistake and apologized. Accept it and move on. As said, items are still on sale. No need to quibble over a couple of dollars.

Mighty LARGE Elephant.....Small Bites necessary to consume said Elephant.

Soon = In two weeks, said time-limit as stipulated subject to review and extension for a further period of time, said period of extension yet to be determined, before or at the expiry of the aforementioned two-week period, which period of extension may or may not accord with the aforementioned two-week period™

Watch out for that door on the way out......springs are mighty stiff. Might end up with a bruised posterior.

OK had a look at this issue which is receiving attention behind-the-scenes and it appears that I am incorrect (apologies) and that your first pic is correct. It is apparently a common misconception. I still do not understand it mind you as the wording in the flight manual seems pretty clear to me. If and when I've figured it out then I'll try and explain if someone does not beat me to it.

What I told you comes from the Mig-21 Flight Manual.

We're dealing with the Mig-21 here. I cannot comment on the Frog - have not looked into it.

No. As you said, the other way round.

Did you not read his explanation? He's not trolling so quit the accusations. If anything, your conclusion based on your observations is incorrect. You dudes should address the post and not the person: Will be a much happier place if done.

Aaaahhhhhh what a joy it must be to drown in the Pool of Blissful Ignorance! Much swimming such Wow.

This is about the only post in this entire thread that makes a wee bit of sense. Yes, there may be significant jitters if you don't know what you are doing/piloting the bird for the first time. Yes, these jitters are largely neutralized once you get the feel of the aircraft/know what you are doing. More importantly, the loadout/parameters of the aircraft/meteorological conditions can lead to vast, vast differences in aircraft behaviour in the take-off roll, especially insofar as loadout is concerned. I would definitely not pay attention to youtube vids at this stage. Yes, the FM is still being tweaked to a certain extent but even now, if you treat the airplane like it's supposed to be treated then a lot of perceived shortcomings/quirks seem to vanish.

You mean the RVV-SD :) MD is the R-73 'upgrade'

No, all references are in kilometers per hour as opposed to knots.

Update your DCS installation and check the options screen - it's already supported.

Yep, these dudes (Leathernecks) are really working hard behind-the-scenes clubbing beetles so go easy on the........ basofea2UEs :D

Wind is fine......wind is your friend. It's that bloody turbulence setting that's the 10th Circle of Hell.

I'm running it on Win 8.1 through a HDMI cable. No need for Thunderbolt cable.
