  1. F5e Special .... Settings ..... Select default Cockpit
  2. ppistolb Go into settings Special and select Default Cockpit
  3. Confirmed
  4. Good sleuthing BJ55 I agree 100mill setting is correct , It is indeed the Two right tumbler mill settings that are out. Jpg below using MB338 references only. Reticle diameter is 50mils so if rotated vertically can be used as a measure. So the right two tumblers are over depressing the pipper by about 3%.
  5. So I have checked again and its partially fixed but the the actual depression achieved is incorrect. See the image below. On the left I use 1 click to set 100mills depression. In the centre image I use the tumblers to set 99mills depression ... but the pipper is actually more depressed than at the 100mill depression ? The right image I set the depression to 98Mills. So if we assume that the right tumblers are correctly setting the depression then the single Left tumbler when set is "under depressing" the pippa by about 3mills. If I manually set the right tumblers to 97mills the pipper ends up at the same position as if I set 100mills. So at present to achieve an accurate 100Mills depression you need to set 103mills
  6. Nice to see Andoya Tacan now on the map. Unfortunately Bardufoss TACAN didn't come with the new airfield.
  7. Andoya Tacan in the latest patch Great. Nice new airfield at Bardfous but its TACAN missing
  8. How do you delete a static object you have placed in the ME but no longer need it ?
  9. Went and had another look at this., ans take back my previous comment. I agree with you Bucic. It seems its better than previous but its still there.
  10. Rain inside the Hangar is an old bug.
  11. Be nice to see Evenes, Mosjoen TACAN's in there to. I am assuming Bardufoss Tacan will be there as part of the airfield
  12. (Slight thread drift) Really interesting video. Also shows that weird Attitude Indicator flick in roll in the region of 20deg Nose up Nose Down. Bucic mentions this in his AI bug thread Dec 6 Seems to me its like the normal "Controlled precession" you see approaching the vertical but in this case its happening inappropriately. (Reported in the Beta testers forum with TRK)
  13. keep turning the Knob anticlockwise (I think) eventually it reaches a spot where the cage knob and plunger snap closed thus uncaging the Stby AI
  14. This video you linked to:
  15. Hmm watched your vid. The bank error ends up being in the order of 1-2 degrees after flying a similar bank angle for 5 or so minutes. In my case in regular IF flying using standard bank angles and general manoeuvering I see little to no error. A 1 degree bank error after 5 mins at 2 degrees AOB I would consider insignificant.... and in some installations to be expected. In fact their is references to this in the old USAF TP55 Instrument Flying manuals using MM1 and MM2 Attitude indicators. Not sure if the F5E is an MM2 or MM3 though. When I was taught IF it was standard caveat not to use low sustained bank angles as that might be below the threshold for the auto erection circuits to cut in. Early generation remote AI systems talk about avoiding sustained turns with turn rates <40deg min (so 0.67 deg sec) for this very reason. Previously we were getting bank errors as much as 10 degrees.... anyway thats my 2cents worth
  16. Thanks that fixed it
  17. No mods whatsoever in any of my installs.
  18. I have 2 installs of DCS one on an SSD and another on conventional HD. On the SSD install the F5E remastered is all good with textures showing in the mirrors. On the HD version the mirror textures are missing I see this below. All other aircraft mirrors are normal. Any clues how to fix this ? I have done a Slow repair and that did nothing.
  19. Bump. The F5E FM still has this over the top wing drop after 1 Sidewinder fired.
  20. Looks like the latest update has fixed the AI precession issue.
  21. Also the STBY AH is NOT caged on a cold and dark start.
  22. Change Log says: DCS: MB-339A/PAN by IndiaFoxtEcho Visual Simulations Fixed: Stand-by ADI not caged when mission starts cold & dark Fixed: hundreds rotary of GunSight mills needs 9 clicks to go from 0 to 1 Improved: Flight Director bars visibility However seems the Gunsight reticle setting changes didn't make it in the last update. Still need 9 clicks on the Left most tumbler to set it to 1. Also the error associated with this in the reticle position at 99 mills versus 100mill setting is still there with a 13 mill error. (see my 14 November post above).
  23. And then as did all the European operators changed to martin Baker GQ-7A
  24. Lockheed's
  25. Some depression settings calculated from the MB339 Weapon delivery manual. No allowance made for PEC or Altimeter lag as I don't know how these are modeled in DCS. MK82LD, Fuze 4secs, 30Deg Dive Angle, 400Ktas, Rel at 3000'AGL, Wt 4300Kg Bomb range 3874', TOF 6.79secs, Aim Off Angle 137mill, ZSL AOA 6.5Mil Tot Depression on sight 144mills ------------------------------------------ MK82LD, Fuze 4secs, 45Deg Dive Angle, 400Ktas, Rel at 5000'AGL, Wt 4300Kg Bomb range 3823', TOF 8.31secs, Aim Off Angle 134mill, ZSL AOA 6Mil Tot Depression on sight 140mills ------------------------------------------ MK82HD Snakeye, Fuze 4secs, Level Release, 400Ktas, Rel at 250'AGL, Wt 4300Kg Bomb range 2050', TOF 4.51secs, Aim Off Angle 125mill, ZSL AOA 9Mil Tot Depression on sight 134mills ------------------------------------------ MK82HD Snakeye, Fuze 4secs, 10Deg Dive Angle, 400Ktas, Rel at 450'AGL, Wt 4300Kg Bomb range 2005', TOF 4.8secs, Aim Off Angle 119mill, ZSL AOA 8Mil Tot Depression on sight 127mills ------------------------------------------ Seems we are limited to MK904/905 fuses with minimum 4Sec setting. A dedicated HD fuse with settings down to 2.5secs or so is needed for in your face Snakeye delivery's.
