MB-339 has it's integrated GPS system. This also has the maps airfields, radio beacons and so on in it's database for selection. So no need for the NS430 in my opinion. It also can be used with a text file based data card. With the newly added option of the DTC in DCS ME (currently for F-16 and -18) this would be a nice addition to the MB-339.

Just tried one of the generic hospital landing pads on the roof in the Huey. N 52°24'38.61" E 9°45'39.26" Some things I need to mention: 1. There is a fence around the roof that's quite high 2. After touchdown the helicopter seems to float above the roof top level. Seems the level where the helicopter comes to rest is the same height like the surrounding small wall, where the fence is mounted to. Thanks Jens

This is no longer a problem after the update in July. Rocket / pylon drag has been greatly reduced.

Hi @MAESTR0, Thanks for the creation of the CWG map. Even in phase 1, it's awesome. I know that there are so many landmarks and monuments and you can't re-create every single one. Could you tell us something about the decision making process in what it's worth to create and what to leave aside? Having been in the area lately on vacation, monuments in Kassel and around are looking awesome. Kaiser-Wilhelm-Denkmal near Porta Westfalica is missing so: 52°14'44.7"N 8°54'23.6"E What I'm missing a bit are the details for the reservoirs and dams in the central part of Germany. The shape of the lakes / reservoirs is nice when flying up high, but going down low through the valleys by plane of even more helicopter, the water elevation changes drastically within the lake having no dam construction. This looks extremely strange at Edersee. Would be awesome if this could be created in later phases of the map. UGRA did a great job recreating the dams in Syria map, e.g. near Adana. Also the historical relevance of the Talsperren needs to be taken into account, as mentioned here in this post: Some locations of the dams: Edertalsperre / Edersee: N 51°10'56.23" E 9°03'39.43" Aabachtalsperre: N 51°29'47.77" E 8°43'11.38" Möhnesee: N 51°29'23.09" E 8°03'34.37" Sorpetalsperre: N 51°21'03.1" E 7°58'05.4" Biggetalsperre: N 51°06'39.17" E 7°53'16.44" Wiehltalseperre: N 50°56'11.14" E 7°40'03.12" Hennesee Staudamm: N 51°20'06.24" E 8°16'25.45" Diemeltalsperre: N 51°22'39.88" E 8°43'39.62" Rappbodetalsperre: N 51°44'23.45" E 10°53'34.19" Okertalsperre: N 51°51'01.59" E 10°27'34.14" Sösetalsperre: N 51°44'19.42" E 10°18'40.99" Odertalsperre: N 51°38'45.60" E 10°30'23.08" Granestausee: N 51°54'41.3" E 10°22'41.9" Innerstestausee: N 51°54'51.68" E 10°17'48.80" Eckertalsperre: N 51°50'28.50" E 10°34'47.34" Talsperre Pöhl N 50°32'57.11" E 12°10'48.38" (not in current detail area) Thanks again for the great work and listening to the community. I really enjoy using the CWG map. Jens

Just installed the latest DCS update. There was nothing mentioned in the patch notes, but looks like many navaids have been corrected with names and so on. Okay, Damgarten still has 820 MHz wrong frequency, but that's an easy fix on my end for the time being. Thanks Ugra.

Thanks, so a different behavior. Maybe some runtime related problem but hard to reproduce. Fingers crossed the devs can find something.

Don't know if it's related or not. Do you switch planes or maps within a DCS session!? I had similar auto pilot issues in the Hornet having flown a different plane before without closing DCS. Ending DCS and restarting the same mission, autopilot was working again with no problem.

Hello, Don't know i this is a bug or not. Anyone else also noticed, that the engine stops too soon after going to cutoff on the mixture lever? Going to cutoff there is still fuel in the fuel lines which will be sucked into the carb and cylinders slowly stopping the engine, also propeller and rotating mass in the engine will have quite an inertia coming to a stop more slowly. ED's P-47 with the same engine stops much more slowly. The sudden stoppage also appears when switching the mags to off. I had no luck being in low idle to do a mags grounding check with going mags off and immediately on again which should result just in a short drop in RPM and recatching of the engine ignition (also working in P-47). If necessary I can create trk and record a video of what I mean. Please see her real engine stopping at around 5:25 in the video. Thanks Jens

Hello, using a Thrustmaster TWCS throttle and a T.16000 stick I do not have so many axis to assign throttle, propeller and boost lever. Having the boost controls for increase and decrease bound to two buttons on the throttle. Pressing short on a button moves the boost lever too far. Would like to have less sensitivity of that boost increase/decrease button commands or a separate boost slow increase/decrease key combo. Currently I'm not able to climb with full open throttle at max continuous power and just slowly open the boost to hold the manifold pressure. Thanks Jens

New video by "Greg's Airplanes and Automobiles", highly recommend his channel. Best Regards Jens

That's what I thought after download. Thanks @Charly_Owl for the great work.

Could the lase code tool tip upper limit in ME also be changed for A-10CII? It says 1788 is possible, but it's not as stated above. I struggled, cause in ME it was possible to set GBU-12 coder to 1712. When loading the DSMS in the plane this defaulted to 1688.

Also wondered about this. Thanks -Rudel- for the explanation. Maybe there is a chance some day.

Also installed the L2D2 liveries and also French liveries from the download section. I than copied the one of the French liveries in a new folder, changed the name in description lua and took all the files within [DCS_INSTALLATION_DIRECTORY]\Mods\tech\WWII Units\Textures\C-47.zip and put them in the new "default" livery in my save games. This way I can use that livery, too.
