Hi all, please see the attached track. During this mission, the aircraft gets a seemingly meaningless sideslip to the left. This is neither caused by wind (see how I turn 180° and it's still to the left) nor by asymmetric loadout (see how it's still there after firing/jettison all stations). This sideslip is absent at mission start and gets worse with time during the mission. It also seems to be a bit worse wit decreasing altitude. This affects unguided bombing. It seems it affects also the HUD cueing system of the ATFLIR. I probaby made something wrong... if so, please tell me what. Otherwise it might be a bad bug. Thanks in advance!! hornet_sideslip.trk Forgot to mention: I thoroughly checked my input controls and they are fine. The FCS shows also practically centered controls. And some screenshots here

Guys, you're right... I realized the same by watching from another angle https://youtu.be/VLgP7ajRrqo

Can anyone of you carrier landing experts explain me why I don't get any wire to hook in this landing??? Hornet_bolter.trk

No, this did not help. But I found a workaround: limit the framerate to 50 fps. Given that I have a Gsync screen, this is fine for my eyes. The drops are still there, but less often and jumping from 50fps to 40 and back is not as noticeable as from 70fps. Moreover, my graphic card seems not so "stressed" to get this framerate

I have the same problem as you, the Harrier in PG gives stutters. It's about every 10 seconds, my FPS has a sudden drops from ~70 to ~30 and back. Log & options are attached, as well as as my rig hardware. Log_&_Options.zip

This way of thinking is quite arrogant, and cuts out a large part of the player base. I've just bought a 1440p and I don't see me changing it in years to come. Not everybody has the money to afford a 4K screen, and moreover, not the money for a PC to pump enough frames into a 4K screen.

Thanks for the answers. This also means that normally the CG of the helicopter is in front of the main rotor axis, right?

Hi, can someone explain me clearly why does the pilot need to pull the cyclic in hovering? The explanation in the manual (highlighted in the attachment) is really confusing to me.

Thanks mate!

Unfortunately that does not answer my question. That thread shows how to create additional user folder in Saved Games. What I would like to do is, instead, have my user folder somewhere else than in Saved Games.

As title says: how can I make DCS write the user folder somewhere else than in Saved Games?

Hi, I wanted just to point out two small issues with the current keybindings. 1) the STO Stop keybindings are IMHO mistakenly switched: the "STO Stop DOWN", pushes the lever forward and viceversa. Maybe it's just a matter of keybind naming. 2) I noticed there is a keybind for "Refuel probe light", but the Harrier Manual states that the refuel probe light is automatically turned on when the probe is extended, so there should not be any dedicated key for this.

Nice video! Can you please post a link to the Marines' document you mentioned?

[we are nearing the point]® [it is almost complete]® [in the coming weeks]® :D

As far as I understand from the Pocket Guide and the NATOPS Manual, you don't need always the water injection. I guess if you have 50% fuel, no stores loaded, external temperature not above 15°C, you can have enough thrust to hover without overheating the turbine... if so, no water needed.

Hey folks, I've seen several air display videos of the Harrier in which the pilot turns the aircraft in yaw direction while hovering... is this done by differential nozzle outputs? And through which control in the cockpit?

I have the same tracker, and using it incombination with the software OpenTrack you can "simulate" up to 5 DoF (just Google this and you will get a Video from one of the EDTracker developers explaining it). That's what I do in The Mirage and I can easily see all instruments at a very good zoom level and with minimal head movement

With the option "transportable". Shouldn't that be enough? If you have a working mission file, can you maybe attach it here?

Hey pilots, I was online yesterday for a couple of hours and I had continuos massive stutter/lag... almost unplayable. Never had that before on Blue Flag... anyone having the same? For info, I flew only the Huey

It does not work for me in Nevada. I don't own the Normandy map, so I can't double check there.

Can anyone confirm this?

All bases are blue, can you reset the mission?

What is that? Is it a kind of cheat?

I am quite skeptical here.... Apart from Las Vegas, Nevada is a desert, with very few objects scattered far away from each other. The Caucasus rework seems to contain tons of trees and buildings, which are known to cause heavy performance drops in DCS

What is the pipper supposed to show in the M2000C ? 1- the direction where the rockets/shells are shot Or 2- the point on the ground where the rockets/shells will land ?
