Schmidtfire

The R-27 can not intercept supersonic targets in DCS. It will be updated but as of now it does not perform well. R-77 has some advantages. One is that it is pretty much fire and forget, the other is that it is possible to engage two targets at the same time with TWS2 mode. A mix of R-27, R-77 and R-73 offers alternatives for all ranges.

Thanks for checking :) Well, must be some sort of new Force Feedback issue. Strange thing is that the MiG-29S works fine but the MiG-29A does not.

What ED should consider is taking the model and bring it into the game as an official AI. Be able to fly it via mod will be up to user and server admins to allow. Without going off topic I do hope to see more community content being absorbed into DCS World with supervision by ED staff and community managers. There are some really talented people among us that could add a lot of value (AI, objects, liveries etc.) to DCS. But obviously it has to be managed in a legal and controlled way.

Did you try hot and cold start? Maybe it is a force feedback thing? Ive been over the controls and nothing is conflicting. But as I enter the cockpit, stick goes to the right.

Anyone else having control issues in the latest Open Beta? For me, the Su-33 and MiG-29A stick is default offset to the right (causing roll). Su-27 and MiG-29S works fine. Hardware used: Microsoft Sidewinder Force Feedback 2

The one we made and used is supposed to be the 341L, which was never equipped with nvg lighting and retired long time ago, which made it nearly impossible to find documentation on rocket pods or either the gun." http://cote-helicoptere.over-blog.com/article-aerospatiale-as341-gazelle-canon-70219061.html 341 with 20mm cannon The "bonus" models is a bit of guesswork and simplified. On the L version you cannot depress cannon or gunsight, IRL there is a panel for that functionality. Mistral version has also a special panel for IR missiles, also not modeled. All versions should have the fold-down periscope w. optical sight - not modeled at all. Removal of the monitor on L and Mistral versions would be one step closer to the IRL counterparts.

Really cool. Hope that they will implement correct HMS symbology. It should not be able to "follow" locked targets around. IRL it looks very close to the DCS KA-50 sight.

How do I switch off the ARU?

I have to agree with Snappy. The canopy is very reflective also the HUD glass up close is scratched.

Is it good to switch off the ARU when entering a dogfight? I always struggle with high AoA. Very difficult to get the nose up on target.

There is no 342L. Devs has said that the ”bonus” model in sim is based on 341L Gazelle. 341 does not have monitor for co-pilot. Anyways, I can buy the recon argument for L version. But the monitor is totally in the way on A-A Mistral. I have not seen a video or picture when a Air-Air Gazelle has a co-pilot monitor.

For consideration. This is only a request and suggestion :) Would it be possible to remove the co-pilot monitor on L and Mistral variants? (same as the Minigun version) First, the L and Mistral should be 341 variants that did not carry a camera/monitor. Second reason is that the visibility will be much improved. The Minigun version has a fantastic view out of the cockpit. From both realism and gameplay standpoint removal of the monitors on these versions makes sense. Thanks for your updates, hoping to see more updates and the OH-58 soon.

Chaff effects are a little simple in DCS. It should mess with radar scopes, radar gunsight locks etc. Hope to see the updated Sparrow soon. What about the AIM-7F variant? Was it ever used on F-14B?

Thanks NineLine!

Great server! I enjoy it very much. One suggestion is to remove AIM-9X and replace with 9M. It is mostly Hornet vs Vipers now as the other airframes is at a huge disadvantage. Dogfights gets a bit dull as most players don’t survive the merge. With 9M there is a bigger chance to actually dogfight. If I fly Mirage, Tomcat or MiG-19 I can deal with 9M and R-73 but 9X is too capable. Even useing 9X myself it often ends up as a mutual kill at the merge.

From what stations does the amraam perform best? Same for IR?

Was not the strange ground effect put in as a quick fix for sliding around on the carrier? Maybe I remember it wrong... anyways low flying in the Hornet is a big no-no for me. Not that I care atm as I have a new Viper to mess around with ;) Mohahahah :lol:

Go TrackIR+HOTAS VR is very immersive, but at the moment it is a struggle. Performance, clarity, ergonomics... it is the future no doubt, I still use my CV1 every now and then. But flying the A-10C will require good spotting of ground targets. Low level flight impacts performance. It is a very technical aircraft, you need to see displays clearly aswell as a truckload of buttons, switches and labels in the cockpit. Id say start with TIR+HOTAS, you will have a much easier time to get a grip of the aircraft and DCS. Down the line you can get a used (or new) VR headset. I have a really good computer for VR, but it feels like it is always an uphill battle.

Thanks for the update. High quality work as always :)

To Eagle Dynamics team. Would it be possible to add the new VR zoom and spyglass as bindable views also for 2D monitors? I found them great in VR, but I still often fly in 2D. The zoom speed and amount of zoom is excellent and it would be nice to enjoy it on regular monitor aswell. Thanks!

Very nice to hear about coming updates updates:) Btw. will counter-measure Automatic mode be implemented?
