Amount of elevator trim required for level flight?
Olddog replied to Art-J's topic in Bugs and Problems
The chart is based on: 2650 rpm +4 boost Radiator closed Flaps up I setup a test mission with those numbers and the trim settings were darn close. -
Steering while taxiing: which wheel brake control works best?
Olddog replied to wernst's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
That is true, I personally prefer proportional analog toe brakes. So that is what I use, if it offends anyone.. oh well -
Steering while taxiing: which wheel brake control works best?
Olddog replied to wernst's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
I bind the left and right brakes to my MFG rudder toe pedals. Kick in a little ruder in the direction of the turn (think nose wheel steering) and then each brake will operate like any other analog brake. -
Anyone know what the Solo Flight check box is supposed to do? Right now, all it does is prevents you from jumping into the Nav seat, which in turn prevents operating the items that can only be done from the Nav seat. Work in progress?

C5A, Long ago, back when they were new and still had that new plane smell, I was an FE on them.

Regardless what the name is, I think he/she/other will be addressed as "You dumb @##$%"

ED should have a "name your copilot/gunner" contest /poll

This issue was brought up back in May. With sync checked air starts can be real sporting

What is the connection between rpm and throttle?
Olddog replied to huchanronaa's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
You might want to take a look at this. The principle applies to all consistent speed propellers https://www.boldmethod.com/learn-to-fly/aircraft-systems/how-a-constant-speed-prop-works/ -
Fortress Europe - WWII Multiplayer mission

I don't know about MP but this script from Draken35 works great. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3318314/

In the ME there is a "type" listing for the AAA M1 37mm and AAA 8.8cm Flak 37, Could you have the M1 37mm placed in your mission?
-
You can grab this, Change to A10s to Mossie, unlimited weapons, and go forth and bomb the cap out of it until you get it right.

Did you tighten the big gray knob on the bottom of Warthog stick? I have the same setup and the stick does not rotate at all.

Maybe one of the Mod folks could make up one of these Pundit Beacons https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pundit_Beacon Not sure if this will help but could be a start on the codes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_former_Royal_Air_Force_stations

The short version.. Yes they will de-spawn. but what you can do is drop the paratroops in a zone, have some late activated troops in the zone. Trigger the late activated troops with a bomb in zone+ time more than 10-15, sec depending high you drop from. The paratroopers show up as a type of bomb in in the ME.

correct as-is Erratic and inaccurate altimeter
Olddog replied to 450Devil's topic in Bugs and Problems
If I remember right, an altimeter error of + - 75 feet is legal for IFR flight (FAA). I believe VFR is more. That is with today's equipment. I don't know what it would have been in the 1940's. If the props are throwing dirt, tree limbs, grass or water on the windshield, you are low enough -
Is one in MPH and one is in Knots ?
-
Well I guess this is "correct as is". Apparently I didn't read the memo but all the controls and switches are set up were some are pilot seat only, some are from the Nav seat only and the rest are both pilot and nav.
-
For example. The T1154 transmitter low and high voltage switch, from the pilot seat, I can't mouse click on it, the pointer stays yellow, and no "tool tip" Jump into the Nav seat, (after looking around the brass knob), no problem with turning them on/off Tried to bind some keyboard commands, (Lalt+Lshift+R), will not work from Pilot seat, Works from Nav seat. All the above applies to all the controls on T1154 and T1155 R/T equipment in the back.. From the pilot seat I can't use the mouse or keybinds, Nav seat works. Should this be in the bug section or am I missing something. Sure hope it's not going to be "correct as is" This is in SP, don't know about MP

Carb flooding ( discussion, not bug report! )
Olddog replied to Richard Dastardly's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
What kind of negative G's are we talking about? I'm instantly getting cut outs and flooding just bumping the stick forward the tiniest bit, something like .01 neg G. -
AI Crew voice and text alerts about enemy fire script
Olddog replied to Draken35's topic in Mission Editor
Thanks for sharing the script. I have been doing a few quick test using a P-47 as a place holder for the Mosquito and so far everything seems to be working fine. I think this will work out just great. Thanks again. -
Synchronize Cockpit Controls With HOTAS is not working
Olddog replied to noriyappi's topic in General Bugs
Well all I can say is in the past 6 years I have never had this happen. All other modules start with the controls synchronized and at neutral position. In my case this is only happening on the K-50
