no, it is setting the trim. this is a separate system of your aircraft and has nothing to do with flaps or nosewheel steering. I'll try to explain the trim system in a simple way. You will use the trim system in flight to have your aircraft fly straight with your stick centered. If you do not trim you will have to keep your stick a little bit forward if you fly fast, and a little bit aft if you fly slow. so if you fly fast you will have to trim forward to have you stick centered, if you fly slow you will have to trim it back. This is a very basic flying system that every aircraft has.

Seems Chizh is one of the most famous persons in dcs now ...

Hoped it was fixed in the 1.5.1, unfortunately it's still there. The enroute page with the waypoint simply does not appear after respawn. Been there in 1.5.0, still there in 1.5.1 also during rearm, empty weapon bays have a all-black graphic instead of nothing on the graphical display sind 1.5.1

did the last update bring any improvements?

ahh too bad, thats the only two weekends I cannot fly at all :(

I so cannot wait for this chopper! And I'm even more looking forward to the Bo105!

Wow! Now I'm stunned! :O thank you very much! :D

did the MVP voting for Round 3 already pass? Where is it being held?

Yeah Reaper was crushing it. I was always follow him behind being amazed how he sees everything when he screams into TS "F15 F15 HIDE HIDE HIDE". Outstanding Situational awareness, and once at work he is unstoppable. I still felt like a hero dropping my troops which I brought in his shadow after he finished his work :D

Hey Guys! We had an awesome time yesterday night, fighting for Tiblisi. Unfortunately we ran into a couple of bug problems. The main issue was on our initial attach, we got Vaziani rather quick, and wanted it to use as a base for refuel and rearm. Unfortunately Vaziani, although captured, did NOT REPAIR for the whole 3hrs, and we could not refuel/rearm. I don't know why that was, we suspect a bug. Maybe someone can have a look at it?

Hey Greg! I got some questions regarding helicoters and troops too: - whats the minimum distance to a farp/airport/city you have to drop troops? - are you sure the no-drop-radius is 10km? i think in round 3 it was 15km/8nm from what I found out in testing. - one more suggestion for motivating chopper pilots, it would be really really cool to have a leaderboard of chopper-pilots in terms of troops dropped and captured areas. Especially the huey but also the Mi8 are very very limited in fighting capabilities and are shot down really easily, but at the same time they have to travel the longest distance at minimum speed. They are vital for mission progress, but they do not get much recognition.

ahhh nice! all the functionality I was missing, great job crash!

the flightmodel of the huey is very good! its (in)stability is one of the best modeled parts of it. apart from the engine model (which is said to be fixed with a near future release). I've flown both sim and real helis, and agree with what yurgon said. Flying in the sim is a lot harder than in the real one, because you dont have motion sensing.

while i'm sorry i really cant help you with the game-mode issue, because i haven't touched it ever (like i guess 95% of the simmers here), i would strongly encourage you to get pedals, sit down and learn how to fly helicopters. it takes a little while to adjust your reflexes to what the chopper wants you to do, but once you have that, you're having the time of your life. And if you ever happen to get a ride on the co seat of a real helicopter with dual controls, you will have a fantastic time impressing the pilot. He will definitely not believe youre flying for the first time.

yay! too bad i'm on the road next week :(

is the server down?

Whenever I type a longer chat message, the whole game crashes in multiplayer. system is a macbook pro, 16gb ram, win7

I want to say thank you for this campaign as well!! It was my very first multiplayer experience, after a couple of weeks flying single-player, and it totally blew my mind. Really looking forward to future events! Btw, the server on 1.5 seems to be paused at the moment?

Hey Guys, one thought for the scoreboard. I almost exclusively fly huey. Our task is to drop troops and capture bases and cities. You count landings, kills, deaths etc. But you dont count captures, which leaves us chopper pilots faaaar faaar behind in the scoreboard. I think it would be a good idea to include at least captures into the scoreboard. They are vital to the gameplay, but is not recognized there at all. Thanks!

Ive noticed while flying blueflag, when i deplete the gun and rearm at a farp, the huey will be very nose-heavy afterwards. i have to put my cyclic about 3/4 aft during takeoff. I suspect this is a bug in the huey, might be wromg though.

solved the problem. windows screen size adaption by 150% was the problem. to be found in system preferences, display. put it to 100 and its good to go. Your windows will look tiny afterwards. EAGLE DYNAMICS PLEASE FIX THIS!!!

I managed to launch after installing VC-redist. Sometimes when i open the resolution does not match the screensize, i only see like a quarter of the screen. If I press Alt+Enter the resolution finally matches, but not a single button would respond. Also the menu screen with the clouds runs very slow and jittery. (NV GT750M, i7-4980HQ, 16GB, 2880x1800 native screen, driver 355.98, win7)

Thanks for the file. I can complete the mission now (seems I did not see the required heading for landing at the crossing). Unfortunately there is still no buildings I can land on. Smoke is high up in the sky ...

Hey Guys! I've tried the firefighting mission now about 10 times. While the mission itself is super big fun, I'm hitting frustration now - big time. My approaches to the loads have become super smooth. The voice hints help a lot, but I never manage to get more than 3 loads to the fire, because I will loose the loads while flying to the fire for a reason that I cannot grasp. My flying is as smooth as possible, slip-ball is centered all the time, load does not swing, i accelerate and decelerate as smooth as I possibly can (sinkrates less than 500fpm). Still, all of the sudden there comes a message Cargo damaged You dropped cargo too far from the zone, MISSION FAILED I've tried so many times, I cannot find the reason for it. Also, sometimes the script says the load was dropped successfully within 10 metres, but when I fly back to the farp to pick up more I sometimes notice the load is still attached, so I fly back, hover in place again until the load is dropped, and then go to pickup a new load. Usually just to drop the load on the way for a reason I cannot see ... Any tips would be highly appreciated. thanks!

doesnt seem to work for me. When I take off from the carrier, the red smoke is up in the air but no building. landing underneath the smoke still counts, but when I land at the green smoked intersection the mission does not continue. Would be awesome if I could fly this mission with the current version ...
