But also they are most vulnerable to systems such as Tunguska or Pantsir, and in many ways have very limited capabilities comparing with A10. Still, they can not be replaced with fast jets. The same goes to A10. The same is true for combat helicopters. But low and slow, gives helis and CAS-only planes capabilities, no one else have or could have.
-
Of course it will, it only deficiency is a gun. And despite all attempts to resolve it with external pods, it never going to be as efficient gunner, as A10 is. Regarding A29 and Reaper/Avenger, I do not believe in them. Have no idea how good their avionics is, but modern CAS plane need very advanced targeting and recon capabilities, smart weapons support, communications, datalinks and means for high situation awareness. All this stuff, if done correctly (not just a bunch of different devices installed, but integrated system, similar to what we see in A10C), can not be very cheap. Also, let not forget about descent payload and the gun.

Plane that can emerge as replacement for A-10 would have tomorrow offense and defense capabilities for tomorrow threats. And I do not sure that F-35 can fully take over. Anyway, we shall see for ourselves, in 10 or 20 years :music_whistling: PS And because I do not expect big all-out war between major powers, I'm convinced that A10-like planes would be greatly missed :cry:

It is tempting idea, to remove from battlefield most vulnerable crafts: attack helicopters, CAS specific planes, and do troops support dropping bombs from 6 kilometers in the sky. But in my opinion, doing that you going to save your planes, of course, but ground troops will suffer, because high altitude bombing is not enough. Advanced antiaircraft systems have fundamental weakness: they need emitting radar to operate and they can not run. Hence, CAS planes can and should be protected from them. And I do not tell that CAS plane need to remain A10, but in my opinion something is needing to fill it role in the future. And that something can not be just bombs and rockets dropping from high altitude platform.

Those are valid concerns, but most vulnerable aircrafts out there are combat helicopters. But they can't be replaced, because nothing can do a heli job. To certain extend, it is true for A-10 too: some stuff it can do, can not be done with other types of planes. Yes, it is mean they have to go close and personal, and become a subject to variety of threats. This is where other types of aircrafts should come to play. So, in the end it should be combat helicopters on the ground level, something like A-10 that can go low gun blazing and survive the attempt, and fighter-bombers high in the sky, to deal with advanced SAM systems, ensuring that the rest can do their tasks.

Он пишет: "We've also built some new tools to help validate and test our flight models. These are very useful for quickly testing things like acceleration or climb, without actually flying the aircraft rigorously." Built - это форма прошлого времени. Но ещё он использует 've, сокращение от have. Обычно означает что "мы строили, строили, и наконец построили".

По поводу видимости, подтверждаю. Истребитель по размеру примерно соответствует яхте, или катерку на каких у нас на Балтике туристов возят треску ловить. Без всяких биноклей, на фоне моря, их мили за 2-3 можно разглядеть (что там чего то есть). На фоне неба вообще проблем не должно быть.

Anyone is free to try to gamble with 'official' store. And when they fail to deliver the product outside Russia, you can say that they odd, they do not know how to run a business, and anything you like. Your complains will not help you get your seat or your wasted time back. I have no problems with Russian language, so no communications problems with Gametrix for me. But still, I preferred to pay more at Andre shop, but be sure that I'm getting what I'm paying for.

Fuzzy, but I doubt you will be able to see it in DCS. But if you not going to use 4K, you can consider FullHD TV's (1920x1080). Cost less, same result...
-
I'm using 29' Ultra Wide (21:9) at work and regular (16:9) 40' at home. For work yes, Ultra Wide screen is great. But for gaming, personally I prefer bigger 16:9. For watching movies is even better.

У нас сейчас вот такой стоит: [ame=https://www.ixblue.com/sites/default/files/downloads/ixblue-ps-octans_3000-02-2014-web.pdf]https://www.ixblue.com/products/octans-3000[/ame] Есть в нём и акселерометры, и вычислитель, и может работать как ИНС (например, на подводных роботах, GPS под водой не работает) работать. Но широту гироскопу надо задавать из внешнего источника. В режиме ИНС я с ним не работал, но в мануале пишут: As soon as ROVINS is powered up it starts its alignment phase starting with the manually input position stored into RO- VINS PROM. It is required that a valid initial position is input manually (see Step 3) or is given by the GPS.
-
ИНС, как было сказано, считает позицию от какой то начальной точки. Широта гироскопу нужна для внесения поправок (они немножко по разному работают на разных широтах).
-
Я работаю с морской геодезией, у нас как раз survey class гироскопы используются: лазерные, стоят как хороший автомобиль, попадают под экспортное лицензирование (в мануалах отдельно пишут что, например, китайцам их продавать запрещенно), и так далее. Так вот, я никогда про возможность гироскопа определить свои координаты даже не слышал, и в мануалах об этом не слова. А для нормальной работы им требуется ввод от GPS. Причём не только PPS для синхронизации, а именно GGA. Более того, если GPS нет, то широту на которой гироскоп работает, надо вводить вручную. Сдаётся мне, вы чего то путаете.

1. From my experience, 970 GTX is almost enough. So, 980 GTX probably (I haven't tried) will be OK. But Titan, or 1080 will be better :D 2. 3D on TV, I wouldn't even considered. Also, remember about input lag, now you are discussing TV features. I strongly recommend to look at PC monitors (which do not have such features, to my knowledge), otherwise, make your research how particular UHD TV model performs as PC monitor. It could be useless, as it was my Philips 6400 UHD TV.
-
Are there 55' computer monitors available? I do not know any. Secondly, big screen is good and immersive, but not as immersive as VR like Oculus. On another hand, 4k resolution on big screen makes HUD symbols better readable, and you simply see more. Therefore, using canons or unguided rockets become more fun. And visually looking for the stuff on the ground is easier. Less need to zoom. PS But be warned, single Nvidia 970 GTX is barely enough for DCS in 4k. For me at least. 970 SLI is ok.
-
There are two things, that differ TV from monitors. First, is available bandwidth, which results in FPS count on UHD resolution. In theory, every HDMI2 input should give 60 Hz at 4K. In practice, and I had learned this the hard way, manufacturer support will claim they have HDMI2, going to blame your cables and stuff like that. For mine TV I was never able to have it run at UHD@60Hz. So, make sure that there is some independent confirmation that TV you planing to get can indeed go UHD@60Hz. Don't trust manufacturer. Another concern with TV's is input lag. This problem wasn't noticeable with HD TV's, but it is a much bigger problem with UHD panels. Input lag, is a time between input, and the moment inputted changes (for example, mouse cursor move) are displayed. It source is TV signal processing. It is ok for TV but very, very bad for PC usage, especially gaming. Long story short, I ended up with Philips 40' UHD computer monitor. No problems at all, refresh rate is 60 Hz, input lag is minimal. Crossover variant also looks OK.

Thanks Andre, Yes, colors are different in my case, but it is not really important. По русски тоже спасибо скажу, судя по другим отзывам людей об общении с гаметиксовским магазином, вы спасли меня от потери времени и нервов, а это дорогого стоит :)
-
Thanks a lot!

Got mine from Andre's Shop a week ago. Good service, smooth delivery (although customs get their share as taxes, but it is life). Useful product, especially flying helicopters. Having any additional indication for VRS (ass-meter :D ) is always a good thing :) And overall, it is additional body sensor input, which enriches the experience. So, I would recommend it to anyone. However, I have a question. Mine have two buttons on the control, Mode and Motors. There is nothing about them in the manual. Anyone know what they do?

Slaw Device vs. Saitek Rudder comparison
Lehmen replied to some1's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Just got my new Slaw Device Viper-RX pedals. Previously I had used Saitek Combat Rudder Pedals. What a difference! My favorite module in DCS is UH-1H Huey, which needs a precise rudder control. Slaw rudders are much smoother than Saitek, and have tons of adjustments available. Installed hydraulic damper, which gives even more adjustments and unique feeling of the rudder control. I haven't tried every other pedals on the market, but now I don't think I have to. Slaw pedals have everything I want, and more. Flying my helio was never before as pleasant, as it is now. Slaw, you have one very, very satisfied customer here :) -
Can you ask them how fast Gazelle can make 360 turn? There is video on Youtube ( ) demonstrating absolutely crazy yaw rate, less than 2 sec for 360 turn. I find it very difficult to believe, that real thing can do that and survive.
-
My guess, you won't find anyone in this forum section who is oppose to see more Russian birds in DCS. In fact, it is quite opposite, every Russian speaker would love to see more crafts for the "red" team. Why Russian developer teams are not so rush to create those modules, only developers know. I'm sure they have their reasons, but people here would love to see more Russian fighters in DCS. Well, maybe someday...

Почему ночью летать не ахти? Я сначала тоже офигел, потом решил что так и надо, отлетал ночью. Единственное неудобство, что красный дым в ПНВ выглядит чёрным, плохо видно. А так, вполне интересно, ночной полёт добавляет остроты простой миссии.
-
Спасибо, придётся так и делать. А когда пойдут миссии где несколько языков будет в одном файле, наверное придётся две версии мира держать на диске, русскую и английскую.
-
При чём здесь Виндовс? Файлы с разными языками в DCS уже есть. Их просто надо запускать по требованию, когда какой хочешь. Чего сложного то? Папки, файлы, зачем сюда тащить этот бред? Проблема то простая.
