THanks for your Feedback. But how do i know where exactly the triggers are, so that the mission continues? I mean finally i wont be able to intercept and wont be able to fight the Mig21....means i reaturn more or less to the base then and finish the mission. How do i know i can return now to the base?

Hello, this is my first DLC campaign i want to fly. But currently more frust than lust. Mission 1. I start, i fly straight ahead until AWACS tells me there is a single contact. Ok, i turn towards it, but i dont get him on the radar (i basically never find something on the radar in the 40 miles-mode. When i get closer either a SAM gets fired on me, or the nice female voice tells me to fly somewhere else. Nevertheless, the contact is not there anymore after some minutes of flying. Ok, i go on the new heading. Then, AWACS tells me that some bogeys have pop-up, i go that direction. I guess these are the Mig21 (i dont know where they start exactly). Then i fly a while around Krasnodar - i get 4 or more times the message, that a group has pop up. But they never come so close that a fight will start. When i fly 1-2 minutes south of Krasnodar, of course the SAM hell starts to happen. So back to the north, area around the 3 lakes between Krymsk and Krasnodar. THen i fly and fly and fly...and nothing happens until my tank is empty. Mission 1, second try. I start, i fly according the waypoints on the briefing. No contacts get reported by AWACS. nothing, zero. not the single contact, not the group of Mig 21. So, what am i doing wrong. This is really my first scripted DCS campaign und i dont get the point what i am doing wrong. What is the key that the mission continues? If there are no contacts, nothing to do, i would normaally return to base and finish the mission. But i wont let me, because obviously i am missing some targets? Some hints for me to "enjoy" the campaign?

Thank you for that feedback!

Yesterday i flew the first time on the server, it was really fun! A question for my understanding: Frontline Units are spawning in the area of the red-blue frontline and are the major targets i should attack with A10/Su25, right? So most probably, i find target vehicles in the area of the frontline?

150 ping? that makes a difference especially in dogfighting when the other guy has 15 ms ping...

This server is in the US, right? Isnt that a ping issue then for European players?

First, i replaced my Warthog Base with the WarBRD nearly a year ago...best decision ever! Its perfect. On Christmas time 2020, i got my Virpil Alpha Constellation and replaced the Warthog Stick...now, after some months, i am back on the Warthog stick. My experience: - the Virpil alpha is quite uncomfortable in my hand on longer flights (though i optimised the handhold, position to my armchair, etc.). The handrest of the Warthog fits better to my hand. - i never found a satisfying solution to replace the DMS and TMS and TRIM Buttons with the 2 Hats of the ALPHA. After half a year, my Warthog Stick muscle memory still let me push the wrong buttons... - i find some buttons quite difficult to use appropriate (e.g. the Button for the pointing finger on the top) - i find the Warthogs CMS button better to use, i often accidentally activated functions on the ALPHA i did not intent (e.g. CMS left, while i wanted CMS down) - the 4-step-trigger (!) was for me quite confusing (i reduced this to 2-step-trigger in the software) Whats great: The little Joystick for view control. But still missing DMS, TMS and TRIM. So i am back to the Warthog Stick and for me, for all aicraft in DCS, Falcon etc...fits best. And the metal feeling...feels better imho. And one soft factor for me is: I fly nearly all current and old flight sims...but as the F16 and the A10 are my long time favorites, i like the stick anyhow...

Aah, that means the Mini-Stick is for example, from far left 0% and far right 100% on the same axis. 0-10% means then left side, 90-100% means right side. Understand, i will try it. Update: Works fine, thank you!

Interesting. They work in all 4 directions as buttons? Down, left, up, right? Because from your screenshot it looks like 0-10% are buttons (but in which direction??) and 90-100% are other buttons (again in which direction?)

Thanks for the hint, i found the tutorial how to define a button to an axis. But then, the X-axis only works on the left side, the Y-axis only on the top side of the mini-joystick. How to configure it that all 4 directions work each as a button?

Is it possible to map any axis on the small thumb joystick on the Constellation Alpha? I have not been successful so far...

Same here, no cent from my wallet anymore until i have the feeling the one or other module gets finished after years of early access... :thumbup:

Bought today, had it in my crosshair for a long time. :music_whistling: I love this little bird. Im a little bit picky in choosing my modules. So far im only using the A10, the Huey and now - tadaaaa - the Harrier. :joystick: Just wanted to tell :D Jan

Für mich die schönste Maschine aller Zeiten: Die P51D. Linienführung wie ein Cadillac.

Same here: TM Stick on a WarBRD Base. The best combination i have ever had. Extremely precise with the perfect centering force. Together with the TM Throttle and Crosswind Pedals really perfect.
