Sorry friend... it's still happening. 10 degree celcius Normandy. About 70% maximum weight. Take off from ground. Worked perfectly hovering at 20 feet. Flew a few kilometers as pilot and then slowed to 0 knots 20 feet in a clearing. Trimmed it stable. Switched to the front seat and despite the ordered altitude set for 30, George raised me up to about 110 feet and would not sink back. The issue is occuring mid-flight and never on take off. I tried for an hour to grab a track file but it always happens (IF it DOES happen) later in the flight making any file I save useless.

I did a fresh install and did not have the issue for a few flights last weekend. More testing tomorrow.

Thanks man. I did starts because I've never seen the bug occur with air starts.

Which maps do you see it in? I see it in Germany and Kola.

Could you not use the track file I posted? I apologize for the length... I'm not sure if I did the file correctly.

Okay. The issue is NOT connected to launching from a non-airbase. This has been tested. Still seeing the issue in Germany and Kola.

The track was long because I was trying to isolate whether it was a missed setting at start-up and I figured it might help. Terrain is over... well... grass. Do you mean maps? Seeing it in Kola, Germany and, as of last weekend, in Normandy.

Picture this. I'm hovering all sneaky at 20-30 feet. I switch from the the backseat over to the CPG seat in the Kola map (seen this in Germany as well) and we instantly bob up to 100 feet. Attaching a track file and a video file. Video at altitude bug.trk

I originally saw this in the Germany map and now I am seeing it in the Kola map as well. I can pilot the bird to a sneaky 20 feet and then switch to the cpg to start throwing missiles. As soon as I enter the front seat we bob up to 110 feet. I check the Hover menu to George the pilot in the back seat and can set altitude to 0 but he still stays at 110 feet. This gets you spotted and killed fast. Anyone else seeing this?

Testing.... Yeah... can't enter co-op mode. Thanks guys.

Oh I'm in Co-op mode... George has the dotted cross on the target lasing it.

I got the latest update on July 23rd and now when George is given permission to engage targets in range with gun he refuses to fire. Rockets are wonky now- even if George locks and lasers a target in rockets co-op mode, the range is based off the shooting pilot's crosshairs controlling the pylons. It's like a hybrid with TADS marking the aim point and the pilot controlling the range distance to the target with his head. Was this intended?

I also get a momentary crash when the AT-6 strikes. I'll post that later.

Anyone else not seeing AT-6 launches when replaying recorded action? I shot two AT-6 missiles in the original hop but nothing is seen in the replays.

I tried it today and would like to officially beg to bring the old system back; its options were so much better. The load times made me think DCS had locked up.
