Again from the Cz manual:

The upper skin roundel currently has the Kangaroo feet pointing outboard. This is incorrect. On RAAF aircraft the Kangaroo points forward with its feet pointing inboard. See jpg: The under wing roundel is correct.

Hydraulic System 2 Failure/Low pressure:

In most 2/3rd Gen aircraft in manual bombing you decide on the release CAS,Dive Angle altitude/height. You then compute the associated TAS. You then enter the ballistics tables with those criteria to determine the Mills depression, From that point on TAS is irrelevant. You then in the jet drop on indicated values i.e. Alt,IAS/CAS not TAS. In the case of the F4E you are served a double Whamy. A non pilot friendly ASI with tiny IAS scale but huge Mach number scale (quite the opposite to most western fighters), and a TAS gauge that is bordering on impossible to see.

Yes, That is my understanding. So allows you to "control stick steer" with bank angles < 5 degrees.

What is the logic with the NWS button and heading hold ? How is it different to simply flying the aircraft to wings level then engaging the AFCS ? If wings are level shouldn't the heading be held anyway ? EDIT: Found the answer here ... great Tech video https://youtu.be/EXsTlmokAlQ

How do you get Jester to select the Radar to map mode then PPI ?

That made me chuckle. I still have a now very faded photocopy of "Lessons learnt from Star wars" that as I recall was from a Fighter Weapons newsletter it goes: LESSONS LEARNT FROM STAR WARS I. There will always be Fighter Pilots II. Happy hour will live forever. III. There will always be broads at Happy hour. IV. Navigators can always be replaced by machines. V. Dive Toss will never work. VI. Strike pukes need Top cover May the total Force be with you

Thanks for the update and fix Dominik96

The Canopy locked strip reference markers are NOT aligned in the front seat with the canopy closed and locked. The Strip on the arm needs to be further back so once the canopy is locked its aligned with the strip on the frame. Rear strips are good.

A little more info. Asked for a Full alignment. I then jumped in the back to see what was going on. Jester selects INS STBY, Heat light comes on. When the heat light goes out (1:59 elapsed) Jester does nothing. I waited till 4:27 elapsed and manually selected ALIGN. Steady Green light eventually came on. Waited for Flashing green to come on which it did at 10:00 min elapsed. Jester did nothing. Manually seleced NAV. Jester then woke up to report all is good to go with primary synch. CONCLUSION: With Lower Simulation mode in a Full alignment Jester falls asleep after selecting STBY. I tried a BATH alignment and all was working. Jester counseled now awaiting to see if his attitude changes.

Similar, I never got the flashing green light on the INS control panel to indicate full alignment was complete. However after waiting the appropriate time 12+mins, I rotated the INS selector to NAV. Jester then said all is good with the "Primary Synch" call. Selected Primary then Synch the compass system. Heading slaved to correct heading with steady compass/ADI heading readouts and all was then normal.

A couple more:

Nice image of F4E sitting on the wing of a brand new RAAF FA18B... the white dots are associated with acceptance checks from the factory This was taken on a BFM sortie.

Currently you can use the Emergency Stores Jettison push button to jettison stores on the ground. This is incorrect, with WOW (left strut) Jettison is not possible. See references fro TO and Heat blur manual pus track. TO: Heat Blur Manual: F4e_Gnd_Jett.zip

No just a basic Beta tester.

Death valley on the Nevada map is below sea level so DCS engine can deal with terrain below sea level.

Looking good, is this a modified beacons.lua ?

Thanks Bummer that worked Also Grabbed your version now using that. Ref Open Beta its just that I had the Open Beta installed on SSD C drive in a small install. The Stock version (fully loaded) on HD. I have kept both as they both update concurrently with each update.

Thanks Dauntless tried two variations but still wont display in the Specials F5E options.

I have tried to use the "F-5E Tiger II Recovered Cockpit" mod but cannot get it displayed in Settings F5E Special Customized cockpit. I think its a Folder issue this is where I have placed it: Any help would be appreciated.

If and When the R550 Magic I default 30 x 30 scan an 5 x 5 scan is implemented life will be much easier

The AI precession is still an issue in the F5E. Needs to be fixed. It makes accurate instrument flight unnecessarily hard ! Real world AI's just don't precess like this !
