Still struggling to get the Mic working , works fin in WIN11 and other Apps just not DCS. Options LUA looks like this not sure if the microphone_use,voice_chat_input or voice_chat_output strings are reasonable ? ["sound"] = { ["FakeAfterburner"] = false, ["GBreathEffect"] = true, ["cockpit"] = 100, ["gui"] = 100, ["headphones"] = 100, ["headphones_on_external_views"] = true, ["hear_in_helmet"] = true, ["hp_output"] = "{0.0.0.00000000}.{ae4715d3-74ca-42eb-80ff-99a7d4233959}", ["main_layout"] = "suround_5_1", ["main_output"] = "{0.0.0.00000000}.{ae4715d3-74ca-42eb-80ff-99a7d4233959}", ["microphone_use"] = 0, ["music"] = 60, ["play_audio_while_minimized"] = true, ["radioSpeech"] = true, ["subtitles"] = true, ["switches"] = 100, ["voiceChatInSensitivity"] = -42, ["voiceChatInVolume"] = 98, ["voice_chat"] = true, ["voice_chat_input"] = "{0.0.1.00000000}.{896cb1d9-589a-4a33-9f17-23a38c5b64a9}", ["voice_chat_output"] = "", ["volume"] = 80, ["world"] = 100,

In game how I want to assign a Key binding to Increase/Decrease Radio freq. Testing shows that the R1 Freq up/Down only changes the Decimal portion of the freq. What keybinding is used to change the leading digits ? ..... so far I cant do it. The only way seems to be by typing in the required freq.

Trying to run Voice Chat (Win11). I do not get any response when I try to test my mic. The Mic tests fine in Win11 and discord but nothing in DCS Voice Chat Mic test . Any ideas ? Running Sound output and Mic through 5.1 headphones attached to ASUS Xonar sound card. Mic sampling rate tried at 44100hz. Have also tried setting Microphone to (Xonar Sound card) as well.

Thanks

So IRL anytime an Aphid,R73 or R55 is locked regardless of the method used to get the seeker head looking at the target I would receive Seeker Lock on tone ?

The one on Amazon is the GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-1 the basic aircraft manual not the -34-1 which is the weapon system manual.

I guess the engineers had a ball ... didn't consider the pilots trying to use this thing imo. For someone who grew up on the Cyrano II and APG65 this thing is a Frankenstein radar ...... Fascinating detail though. Be nice to see the Luftwaffe weapons manual GAF T.O. 1F-MIG29-34-1, written in good English if one is floating around

Thanks for the explanation AeriaGloria. This graphic from a poorly translated Russian MIG29 Weapon manual implies to me that the the determinant of the 16.5deg/13.5 deg elevation coverage is determined by the Cursour (TDC) position if <=20km or >20Km. .... again I presume this is due to numbers of bars being scanned.

Ah ok thanks ... and do you get a value readout in the HUD like we do in the FC3 MIG29 ? In other words how do you know what Expected Target range you have set ? And another question. Is it this setting of expected target range that sets the Antenna bar setting <20Km 16.5deg elev coverage and >20km 13.5deg elevation coverage ?

Reading the various available MIG29 references I went searching for the "Expected Target range" radar setting as in FC3 MIG29. I couldn't find any references to it. Does it exist in the real Mig29 ? If so where is the switch that sets it ? Or is it a function of the range that the TDC cursour is set to?

The Lift to lock toggles not being fitted was in fact in relation to B737 and was raised in 2018. Given thats 7 years ago I am sure if a 787 was delivered without them someone would have snagged it. Without the lift to lock collar the feel of the switches operation would be entirely different. Muscle memory would have instantly picked this up ... and a subsequent tech log entry would have ensued.

Its been a while since I dabbled in FC3 aircraft. Should I be getting acquisition tone with the R73 and R27ET locked on by either radar/EOS or Shlem ? Currently I only get acquisition tone in Longitudinal mode.

The Luftwaffe MIG29G's which were 9.12A based were modified to carry them. G limit wise they are 4G same as Cl tank feeding, +6G empty with the cl tank empty Aircraft Limit. I believe other nationalities were moded as well. The Malysaian MIG29;s were based on the 9.12 Airframe and carried Wing Drop tanks. Though their aircraft were modified with Flight Refueling probe and R77 capable as well ... so sort of a Hybrid 9.12/.9.13 with out the spine. The MIG29's (9.12) of the Russians/MIG OKB that toured the US/Canada in 1990 also carried them.

Be nice to get external Drop tanks available with the Modified fuel Gauge as an option.

Yep indeed. Mir III
