  1. Technically you are correct, but fine control of your speed is a lot easier when the brake is out. I prefer to nail the plugging the probe in the hose part before I make it harder by increasing the throttle sensitivity to normal levels.
  2. The water tank is refilled automatically when you refuel&rearm.
  3. My Royal Navy GR.9 is pretty close to finished:
  4. Thanks a lot Brixmis Edit: and Jace11!
  5. The Admiral's Barge is on my to-do-list.
  6. See the attached zip for the relevant chapter from the TAC manual. arbs.zip
  7. One way of getting around this проблема is to simply replace the audio files in \Sounds\Speech\Sound\RUS\Mi-8MT\ and \Mods\aircraft\Mi-8MTV2\Sounds\Speech\RUS\MI-8MTV2\ with the equivalent files from the "ENG" folders. I do it using a simple JSGME mod for easy activation/deactivation, and it passes the integrity check (at least in 2.1).

    LHA-1 Tawara

    New and improved:
  9. Green is a color...
  10. You don't need to install the beta. Just switch between release and openbeta via the dcs_updater command line utility.

    Yup. And the same goes for the KC-130. Time for some fuel starvation and mid-air collision practice!
  12. Yay! there's a KC130 folder in \CoreMods\aircraft\AV8BNA\Shapes\ :D
  13. Oh? Are you sure you don't have any old updates pending? According to updates.digitalcombatsimulator.com, the latest OB version is 1.5.7.11762.396, which is "old" (as in not new today).
  14. A paint kit for an early access module must also be seen early access (i.e. not completely finished). But if you can't wait for something better to arrive, it's a pretty trivial job to strip the color off the livery files while preserving things like panel lines, rivets, weathering etc.
  15. There's water outside Normandy, and you can place carriers in Nevada using Poly(Mt5?)_Roie's trick:
  16. Check your email (and spam filter). I got my serial in the mail right after paying.
  17. Wait for 8 hours and try again. Updates usually go live 4-6-ish PM European time.
  18. From FB:
  19. Google drive or dropbox are probably the best alternatives.

    ILS DME

    If you're talking about ILS+DME(TACAN) channel pairing, that isn't really relevant at Beslan, as there is no DME or TACAN there (at least according to Lino's beacon map). And the channel pairing is only relevant for DMEs co-located with the GP (terminal DME), which isn't the case for the TACANs spread around the Georgia map (they're set up as enroute navaids, despite being located at the airfields). Edit: and yes, I'm using a mix of the terms DME and TACAN here. As far as distance measurement goes, it's the same thing, operating on the same frequencies with the same signal specs. Edit 2: and regarding the channel pairing only being relevant for terminal DME: I am of course referring to the DME channels paired to ILS frequencies, not VORs. Just so that's clear.
  21. I'm planning on making a YAV-8B prototype skin and some variant of the RAF's winter camo:
  22. Nice video! Can't wait to have a go at this myself :)
  23. I'm nitpicking, but what do you mean about it being a "single beam"? The localizer and glide path(-slope for the non-ICAO folks) are two separate systems operating at different frequencies at separate locations. While it may appear as "one beam" to the pilot who just sets the LOC frequency in his/her nav receiver (with the corresponding GP freq being auto tuned due to standardized frequency pairing), saying that a 110.1MHz signal from one end of the runway and a 334.4MHz signal from 400-ish meters from the opposite runway end is a single beam is a bit of a stretch of the term "single". (and just for the record, I have been working for the world's largest ILS manufacturer for 10 years, in test and R&D, so I don't need to look up how it works)
  24. Just go a few newsletters back, and you'll find: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3276316&postcount=115 Seeing that the 29th is the last DCS release day (=wednesday or friday) in November, people who missed the pre-sale discount despite receiving the newsletter have no one to blame but themselves...
