Summer sale is OVER when it turns to the 14th? HUH?
Fionn replied to csdigitaldesign's topic in Payment and Activation
Take a breath! It's a sale FFS! -
i dont want to tell anyone, i am just interested in how much time i have spent "playing" the sim. its is very similar in idea to an online id for ps or xbox, pretty pointless but still allows tracking of time spent etc

Leave the flaps on auto, that what I do anyway. Any plane turning will bleed if it is beyond a certain rate, so you either need to stay below that rate, expend some energy to retain speed (drop altitude) or exchange energy for nose position (bleed speed). The key is to know when to ease off the stick and regain some energy. Dogfighting is all energy and angles. Trading one for the other. Don't try to out turn the guy in one turn (unless you have all aspect missiles which you dont in F5E) but try to gain some angles on him. Or unless you have a big energy advantage over the bogey. This is a great video, Also I advise you find a copy of Fighter Combat and tactics by Robert Shaw, its great :D

This might be a thing already, but often when I'm dogfighting in the vertical the sun blinds me, and I'm not even using VR... Is there a visor that I can enable or could there be one?

Hi, wondering if it would be possible for the ED website that holds accounts etc to have an online log book too?
-
Are there any NDBs that can actually be tuned to by the F5s radio? I have noticed that all the ones I have tried to use have been far too low frequency, and thus haven't used them at all. With regard to navigation I often find if I am drifting off course a quick "inbound" call to an airstrip can provide me with enough info to work with.

this is amazing, i am working my way through the f5e annotated and they are great; simple and fun! great for practicing the basics, lots of dead reckoning and getting the timing of the circuits ready to land on perfect time! Very fun, thank you for making this :D -
ah awesome thanks :thumbup: i missed that update
-
Sorry if this has been asked already, I cant seem to find it anywhere so thought I would ask here. No bashing, genuinely love this module but do we have a general idea of when the EFM will be ready for us to try? Like I said I'm not being pushy or anything, just curious? Excited too :D
-
Yeah it said that in the last episode, she was the first ever female fighter pilot to intercept a Russian bomber. Yeah that landing was pretty nuts! The centrifuge guy I felt for, I was really routing for him as well lol! The BFM and ACM flights were pretty cool. Made me really regret not applying for the RAF when I was a teenager! Oh well, at least I can fly in DCS :-D
-
Cool no worries :-)

Running DCS 2.0.5.3889 Update 4 My own mission (1v1 guns both M2K) that has never had this problem before; I took the wing off and he continued to fly fine, only went down when I managed to gun his engine from exactly 6 oclock. Took a screenshot but I cleared the clipboard before pasting it in to paint :doh: Is it a known bug at this time, the damage model?
-
Seeing as the Hornet is on the horizon I thought I might add to the hype train... Many may have already seen this but I thought it was worth posting anyway. I just watched it and it made me really regret my decisions as a teenager :doh: lol
