Hello, I am considering the purchase of this campaign. What is its current status? The missions still work or they have problems? Thanks!

If you are using the standalone client (not Steam), you can choose not to update for as long as you feel convenient both in release and beta versions and even downgrade to a specific version that was more to your liking.

According to IvanK: https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3573850&postcount=15 1. No. I think those are AIM-9 search patters but looks like they are (were) not used in the F-18. 2. Yes. 3. Yes, of course. An uncaged AIM-9 seeker always tracks by itself, that is what uncaging means.

My configuration was 17400 rubles (it depends on what exactly you purchase) + customs. My mod and board was about 10-12€. The wait was long because he didn't have stock and he went away, doing stuff with Virpil. But you better ask Baur because he recently received the kits and as Sokol says, he might still have stock now. PS: I got one of those Virpil electronics kits.

It is broken. Effectively first mission, which is expected to be just a familiarization tour takes you right into an SA-8 engagement zone. I don't want even to know how many bugs this campaign must have after the map revamp.

I would not update right now. There is a bug in OB that might render all your current keybindings useless. Or at least check it out first.

I had something like this at higher altitude over the mountains (3000-4000m I guess). I lost most of the pitch authority and almost crashed. Not sure if that was a Mach or AoA issue, I still need to make my way around the cockpit. Speed was 800-900 Km/h.

I had that same doubt before purchasing them and asked in this very thread. You can see the responses. Right now yes, they feel very solid. Let's see how they wear with the time. They are not tilted to the right but in rest position the right pedal stays a bit more backward than the left one. With the wide lens this is why the right pedal looks lower. I guess it has to do with the CAM. Not that annoying to be honest, what I think I would have preferred is a more linear CAM for yaw.

I just wanted to post a follow up. I finally got my BRD-MS3 pedals from Baur and they are really nice! Now I will need to adapt to them but the brakes feel so good in resistance and long travel! It has taken some time for me to assemble them because I didn't know that it was needed to put rivets and I didn't have the tool. :cry: Well, problem solved now. Also did a little mod to lower their height as I could not reach them very well: they seem optimized for a low seat, like a C152 while I am more like in a C172 position at my computer (the mod can be seen in the side picture). And finally added a wooden board as platform for best stability and with enough space to slide my feet.

Yes, I was glad to see a brake axis. The MiG-29 uses only hand brake, no pedal toe brakes like the Su-27, therefore these are not simulated.

I took it for a quick spin yesterday and TBH, didn't find any difficulty in the landing. Just lowered gear and flaps in downwind and tried to aim for about 150KIAS final approach speed. So I reduced speed to 320 Km/h turning final and about 290Km/h over the fence. If you are falling too quickly just increase power as in any other aircraft.

I customized yesterday my Warthog throttle axes to match the AB detent. I have a 59% dry range and a 41% AB range on the virtual axes. Normally it uses to be a 25-30% range for the AB range in the sim, but the MiG-29 looks more like the actual planes that I have seen, that have quite long AB throws. TBH, I don't really care as in any case I need to customize it to match the AB detent in my throttles, and once done it just works forever (unless ED changes it of course).

For what it is worth, I have been using my Warthog with and without the mod connected to my monitor USB hub and it was always correctly recognized.

That chart says that heights are related to runway 13 threshold elevation. Heights are always in reference to an stated elevation as opposed to altitudes that are in reference to MSL. That is a standard chart with altitudes as main reference and heights in parentheses for radio-altimeter reference in the approach and for minimums (DH, MDH: always in parentheses). The previous statement only warns you that all those heights (not altitudes!) are not e.g. AAL (reference to airport elevation) or to the actual ground elevation at that point, but to the runway threshold elevation.

AV-8B happened.

Also happened to me, but later in Tacview I saw that the pilot was long dead by enemy soldiers that I never saw because they spawn inside the forest. I have been doing the A10C sp missions and most of them are broken one way or another. I suggest the Sturmovik campaign. It works, just the audio is in Russian.

Yes to both. Ripple has several bugs reported in the bugs section but so far threads only get merged and ignored. G loaded 3 x Mk.84 ripple drop by Mongo after killing his MiG-21:

Very interesting, IvanK. In this video, at 39:13 just after the Fox 3 callout with STT lock, there are multiple unsuccessful uncages and re-slaves of the AIM-9 with the seeker just tracking dirt every time. Those are automatic uncages or there is also a manual uncage feature from the radar slave situation? Currently in the sim, with STT and the AIM-9 seeker on the TD box (not self tracking yet), when I press uncage the seeker goes to boresight, but I cannot uncage the seeker from that situation as you say. A new uncage button press re-slaves the seeker to the TD box. In the previous video the guy does the uncage/re-slave procedure quickly without the boresight step.

That is exactly what could happen if you launch a missile caged to the radar once it leaves the rail. This is why pilots are taught to uncage the seeker before launching: to make sure that the seeker is tracking and make sure that it is tracking the correct target. What I don't understand, as I said in my previous post, is how the missile can be caged to the radar and uncaged to find different heat sources at the same time.

How come the missile is in self track when it has not been uncaged? I mean, if the missile is slaved (caged) to the radar, it should not self track until it is uncaged. If it was uncaged it should not follow the radar in the first place but search on its own for heat signatures. EDIT: corrected grammar

So, I have installed the mod and tried it for a couple of hours in the A-10C and the F-15 and really, this is what should have come from TM in the control set. It works flawlessly, just perfect. DAL1, you are the man! :) BTW, for me it has calibrated without problem at the first try. About the ergonomics, the piece does not slip like it happens sometimes with the little original nipple. It never hits the Coolie hat, although your finger could contact a bit with it at full deflection to the right, but anyway you will never move it. The control surface is somewhat smaller than the original one (I mean the actual form the A-10) just to avoid that collision but it does not feel extremely small under the finger. I just have the sensation that it is a bit deep, but as I said it does not slip and overall the ergonomics are just awesome. Aesthetically the material and color are somewhat different from the original throttle (more granulated, matte finish and less deep black). Not that it matters much, because anyway it is in the front of the set and you don't get to see it much, but DAL1, for the future, if you find a material a bit more similar for those two pieces that are visible, it would improve even more the good impressions of the mod. About the two external pieces (round and square), I have used the square one because otherwise in the corners I don't think it could register max deflection for both axes at the same time with the round one. There you go, another happy client. :) I am going to recommend this mod to all my friends, the change is like night and day.

I just received today my thumbstick, but I find that the webpage with the instructions (www.deltasimelectronics.com/install-instructions) is not working, it redirects me to "https://deltasimelectronics.com/password". Any help please? EDIT: I found it in the search engine cache.

That is what I thoght 6 months ago, but after ordering a different set of pedals, it is starting to happen the same. So I was re-considering MFG.

Any further news on these "Combat pedals"?

It has been 14 moths since I reported this problem but it still persists. I have made a video showing it:
