roger, so it's alway 3.45 until 15 seconds ttr. strange

quick q: does DCS re-create objects seen on the sectional charts like towers? if so, how closely does the DCS maps follow the charts?

Is there a way to override a campaign's settings? for example I want to be able to turn on labels if I'd like even if the campaign has them turned off. thanks!

those virpil ones are sweet. but dang they're pricey!

gotcha. yeah dampening would be ideal as you need some sort of resistance or else it'll be too limp. these "Crosswind" pedals allow for dampened, non-centering feedback?

can you explain? not sure what you're talking about

Looking to get some pedals for helo flying, however all the ones i'm looking at are self-centering. Anyone know of any non-self centering pedals, or pedals you can adjust to turn self centering on or off? thanks!

Anyone tried the Operation Hormuz Freedom and think it's worth a buy? How are the voice overs? thanks for any info! DCS: AV-8B Hormuz Freedom Campaign (digitalcombatsimulator.com)

Quick q: are the external lights actually this bright IRL? the tail light is blinding in sim

sweet!

i tried to do that but I'm out of room! these things need more buttons

on another note similarly, the rain comes inside the cockpit/cabin. is this already a known issue?

Silly question but. what would cause your HSI to stop working? I was flying around a mission and it was working fine. I just landed and picked up some passengers. When I go to take off, the yellow flag is out. I tried resetting the inverter and generator. Checked the warning panel. But everything seems fine?

so the T 03.45 is just a garbage number?

thanks. so i tried CCIP as a manual release mode but don't think it works from straight and level. what I'm trying to do is lob a GBU-12 to get more distance and let the gliding feature do it's thing. this way you can release farther than CCRP allows. however I can't get the GBU-12 to release in any modes except when CCRP lets me. i tried the other modes from straight and level but it wouldn't come off the rails

So it looks like the target bearing on the HUD is messing up. As you can see my target lock is several degrees to the left. However it's flashing between 0R and and 6L very fast. Anyone else seeing this?

I'm confused about the highlighted number T 03:45. According to Chuck's guide thats the time to target. However the number is not changing. It's just staying at 03:45 while I'm flying to my locked target. How is this supposed to work?

hmm I can't get the laser to fire at all with my gbu-12's. found this thread but still unsure if it's working or broken

Wanting to know more about all the different release modes for the GBU-12. In Chuck's guide he says just to use Auto. However which one does manual release? What is DTOS, VIP, and DIR? Thanks for pointing me in the right direction

hmm ok thanks thats informative. what I'm trying to get is the little boats to continually circle and fire at the big ship as it's trying to escape. can fire at point latch onto a target?

Quick q: i have 3 small gunboats set to attack a ship, however when the mission loads they just float in one place and do not attack. what am i doing wrong?

I don't think so, I kept the temps in the green most of the time except for takeoff and landings. Cruise was on autopilot. Takeoff and landing required above-green temps for a minute or so. However is there a way to tell for sure? After sling I flew around spotting for artillery and was able to fly fairly normally. It wasn't until I landed to pick up passengers when I was unable to take off. It was like a very slow degradation.

So I'm flying the Paradise Lost campaign and during the sling load mission my engine has slowly lost power. I thought I was going crazy at first but I confirmed it after landing. I brought power back to idle for a few mins, then when I brought power back up to full, the RPM couldn't even get back into the green. If you look at my screenshot, this is as much power as I could get. There are no other issues and I wasn't hit with any fire. What could be causing this? It caused me to lose the mission as I couldn't take off with loaded passengers

UPDATE: i just randomly chose a direction to adjust and then saw the shell, then asjusted back the other way and was able to hit the outpost. i think the problem is they only fire 1 shell and if you're not looking at the right spot you don't know where it landed.

On mission 4 where I'm spotting for artillery. I'm above the outpost, however I do not see any artillery shells falling. I've circled it twice but don't see any explosions or smoke or anything to correct. Is this the right place?
