Yeah there's a readout of the direction and speed on the A/C position page of the HSI.

Not really. Doing so would mess up the parallax location of the elements within the HUD. For example, if the fire control designated an impact point of a weapon, and that indication was fixed on the HUD glass, then moving your head would disrupt the parallax relationship between the target pipper and the computed impact point. Same with the horizon. If the navigation system calculated the position of the horizon and projected it onto the HUD glass, then when you moved your head/seat up or down the parallax relationship between the real and HUD horizon would not match. As such, the HUD is a tool which projects the display image in front of the jet, to the point where you cannot mess up the sigh picture through eye point movement within the cockpit. The WW2 guys have to be more careful about the relationship between their eyes and the illuminated gunsite they use for aiming. Some of them aren't projected with the combiner and thus they have to deal with this problem. Nice job beating me to the punch sirrah!

is windows installed on a HDD?

Yes I would agree with that understanding. When launched you will often turn to evade, and the RWR warning tone will cease. You can be sure you are still being illuminated for an approaching missile but that the elevation is outside of the RWR antenna limits. When you roll wings level after the turn it's no surprise to see the RWR start screaming again. Several years ago this was a technique in the MiG-21Bis to determine whether the launching emitter was a SAM or AI; after you turned abeam 3/9 you rolled 45° away from the threat, and reception continued you could guess the transmitter was airborne as SAM's were in the RWR "shadow."

I've recently had it happen to the Su-33 when spawned ready to launch on the Kuznetsov in a MP server. Should I attach that track here or make a new bug report? I figure they're related as both are FC3 standard aircraft.

so for years you've been loading weapons while the autostart was running?

I'd guess 5-10 hours if you start with no ability to fly formation?

In the PDF file "DCS Supercarrier Operations Guide EN.pdf" you can also see the grading system on pages 68-69. It's location is (DCS World)\Mods\tech\Supercarrier\Doc\DCS Supercarrier Operations Guide EN.pdf

That's cool. I didn't know the Vulcan's and Chaparral's were supposed to be used together.

It's already in the game, under the option "repeat brief.":thumbup:

Strange, slewing to the target didn't work on your replay, and I couldn't control the seeker. I backed out and loaded the mission directly (Weapon Qualification - AGM-62 Walleye (Caucasus). And it wouldn't work there. I loaded the Nevada version of the same mission and it worked just fine?????????

It's gonna be a wait friend.

Just keep putting in trim. It's going to need a lot. If you're holding constant stick pressure that's your indication you need trim.

I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "NDE" (NDB?) Point the nose (Heading) into the wind so that that the airplane flies on a straight ground track (Track) to the station. Aircraft heading should remain unchanged, and station position relative to aircraft heading (Called "Relative Bearing=RB") will remain unchanged. But errors in station reception will make the station heading (RB) change, and as you get very close to the station the minute error in ground track will cause the station RB to change as well. When it moves too quickly for you to correct you can know you are about to pass over the station. Instead of reacting to wind drift, adjust to counteract it before it has the chance to blow you off course. In modern aircraft with TVV/FPV this is easy to see, as the miniature airplane will drift left or right of the center of the HUD as the aircraft track drifts in that direction due to the wind.

"Go Advanced" Scroll below the reply box to "Additional Options" "Manage Attachments" please keep the track short as it improves the replay quality and the forum has file size limits.

You dropped it at a distance of about 7-8nm at a height of 11,000ft AGL. I don't think the bomb had enough energy to reach it's target. I took control of your track immediately after you achieved at lock, and waited until the distance indicated 4nm before launching, and it struck the target. Thank you for posting a track, it's incredibly helpful for this kind of thing.

Thanks for the info Brad.

You could do Nevada, and just do the carrier training in the Black Sea. Nevada is one of my favorite maps and perfect for training but it's a hard sell if you have the Hornet. Persian Gulf will get closer to a combat zone, an is very good for carrier ops. But if you want a dedicated training environment for USA aircraft, NTTR is the best choice. But you'll be limited to only "combat" training exercises (Red Flag), some sort of invasion of the USA scenario, or the free Caucasus map. Really though, all the training stuff will be aimed at the free Caucasus map (i.e. all the training missions will take place on the Caucasus even if you buy Nevada or Persian Gulf) so the choice is yours. I have both and I like them both. I try to keep the training sorties in Nevada.

EGT's were about 1,000°C right before they failed. I think you cooked them.

Don't re-install the A-10C just yet. No the helicopters shouldn't matter. Step 1 is to make sure that DCS is seeing that it has a TMWH HOTAS connected to it.

Do you have the Warthog drivers From Thrusmaster installed? Have you updated the firmware inside the stick and throttle? Have you used T.A.R.G.E.T. to combine the Joystick and Throttle into a single device? My understanding is that this inhibits the DCS default profile. When I plugged mine in everything was mapped automatically. DCS saw two devices, TMWH Throttle and TMWH Joystick. Make sure DCS correctly identifies them within Options>Controls>A-10C Sim. If all that is in order you may have accidentally overwritten the default TMWH profile. Select the entire device category and select "Default."

The F-16 in DCS can drop them slick, but the F-5E-3 cannot. Not sure which one should be getting a bug report here.:music_whistling:

Wasn't sure where to put it... so thank you for fixing the cockpit lighting again. It's nice to read the caution panels + lights again, and they look very nice (at least during the day when I noticed). THANK YOU.

Can you reproduce it? Upload a very short track showing it?
