I have found Chuck's library to be the best for a good solid foundation of to learn from. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=135765 Hope this helps!

Yes, by default the profiles are saved in the /Documents/RSmapper directory. Just be sure the profile doesn't contain any custom key bindings within DCS or you'll need those as well.

1. So, after reading through your assessment of my mistakes, there were only two that struck me as "incorrect" for DCS purposes. 2. I am doing the best I can with the information available to me. I stated in my first video that the documentation readily available to a user who just picked up DCS and the Ka-50 is pretty limited. You clearly have a great understanding of the aircraft that I wish I had. Truly. Do you have a document or readily available source of information that I can look at and learn from? The best source I have been able to find is Chuck's Ka-50 document which I thought was very good... I'm not trying to deliver bad information. I take the information I have, the information I can find, and the rest I try to figure out the best I can and then present what works in the end. The autopilot lights being a perfect example. I had no idea that was a bug. Yes, I could have gone and dug through probably months or years of posts to find it... but that's not particularly realistic. So, if you have a good document please share it with me. I'm not trying to be an ass at all... genuinely asking. 3. You must have had to dig for the video. I searched for days and looked at multiple Ka-50 videos that I could find on YouTube and that one never came up. I'm sorry you don't like my intro. As, you can tell by my number of subscribers, my channel is still very much in its' infancy. I made that intro myself and thought it was cool. I agree it is a little long. However, just that one took me about 4 days to make as again... I'm new to all of this and still learning. I am working on a shorter one. As, for the small talk, I'm a sociable guy. I don't know what to say other than that. I feel like there are subscribers who don't mind hearing me chat for a second. I also, completely disagree that making a one hour video that explains the why's and why not's would be just as successful. Most viewers, of game content videos search a video for a specific portion and then leave. However, this may be a topic to agree to disagree. 4. Finally, I don't feel like it's a bad video or that I blatantly gave incorrect information. Can someone who is brand new to the aircraft or the sim in general watch that video and start the aircraft? Are there any steps that I included in it that are going to completely ruin their game play or enjoyment of the sim? (With the exception of the autopilot lights - that one I had no idea about the bug. I will definitely correct that. There are 3 others that I fly with that had no idea about that either.) Even, the issue with the throttles going to max, I have been flying it like that since I started (I won't be now given the information you provided me). Anyway, it just seems that my video irritated you and I apologize. Certainly, not what I'm looking to do with my channel. Simply, going by my understanding of the information I gather and trying to simplify it for someone who wants to be a part of the DCS environment who doesn't have the information or experience you have.

I love all the responses.. and most of this I knew. However, I knew this was going to happen with these videos. Please, remember what I mentioned in the first video. My objective here is to create a foundation of the BASICS to get new simmers or pilots new to the aircraft up in the air and enjoying the experience of DCS World. I intentionally ran things in a way that will "work" with DCS and not necessarily in real world practice. Yes, DCS has the ability to create failures and adverse effect based on the above. However, I am creating these videos for the user that isn't familiar with the aircraft and thus probably won't engage such failures. I have to be selective on what information to put into these videos and how much detail to get into as not many viewers are going to sit and watch an hour long video each time. Not, to mention that most viewers aren't going to retain that information after 45 minutes of it. It is truly one of the struggle points for all content creators I believe. More information = more time / more time typically = less of it watched. Please, keep the information coming though. I can't stress enough that there is soo much information missing from the documentation in the SIM that certainly pilots will benefit from all this information.

Had it set to private while it processed and forgot to change it. Try again.

Thank you MemphisBelle for the like and subscribe! I appreciate it! @Avantar - If, I missed anything or if you would like me to demo new functionality let me know.

I believe so. It recognizes every device that I have plugged in.

I have to agree that I could not care less what it looks like. I'm not taking my OR to a fashion show. I can't see myself or the HMD when wearing it lol. However, I understand your desire for pleasing aesthetics. The functionality is definitely where it is at with these. I personally, wouldn't burn to much energy with the cosmetics of these units. The game play experience change is going to be huge.- 3421 replies

In this course for the Ka-50, we'll go over the start up procedures as well as the HUD in its' default configuration.

This will be the first course for the Ka-50 Blackshark. We will go around the cockpit and identify all of the instruments. This is kind of a long one but there's a lot of information. Hope you like it!

Welcome to Virtual Carrier Wing 13 for DCS! VCW13 was formed in March of 2018, with the intent to deliver excellence, camaraderie, and as close to real world aerial practice as possible while enjoying the combat experience offered in DCS World. We are a 18 and over group. We strive to fly with the same precision and professionalism seen by modern combat pilots all over the world today. VCW13 is currently made up of four squadrons: VMFA-286 Arrowheads (F/A-18C Hornet) VF-187 Raptors (F-14A/B Tomcat) VMA-238 Seadogs (AV8B N/A Harrier) HSM-67 Green Devils (UH-1 Huey) Flight usually take place around 8pm MST on most days of the week. This will change as membership grows. We are not a hardcore Mil SIM group. However, we do have a rank structure and expect you to follow the Air Groups policies and procedures. The command structure is primarily used for group administration and flight operations. This doesn’t mean you will find anyone barking orders here. Higher ranks indicate Administrators and squadron leaders. Promotion, is given through completing the recruit phase and then through service time, participation in both flight ops and development. Development can consist of policies and procedures, livery creation, missions, or any other method of group contribution. As, the group grows, we will introduce new squadrons. We are a very open minded group. Essentially, if you can get on and off from a carrier, we’ll consider adding it to the air wing. We also offer in depth and interactive training lessons for all members with both video and practical instruction to help you get the most out of your air frame of choice. For an example of how this training will go and what you can expect please follow this link: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3VY4ObSBiPjHJ9Z5NJ1sAw?view_as=subscriber We have our own training server, TS3, Discord, and SRS!! If you have any questions feel free to PM Repth or PACMAN (OverKill) on the ED forums or you can Contact Us direct through the website. http://www.vcw13.com If you like to train hard, have fun, work as a team, and continuously learn then we may be the group for you! Are you Ready?

This is a review of the Thrustmaster T.Flight U.S. Air Force Edition headset! These are my own thoughts and this device was purchased with my own money.

Thank you for the input. I am aware of those features. I left them out because after trying to consistently get them to work I couldn't. Remember, my goal of this channel is necessarily to each every aspect of the aircraft, but to get pilots who don't normally fly it up in the air and "functional". With that being said, it was frustrating not being able to comfortably get the CCIP to work. It seems to be very buggy.

Almost done! In today's video we'll discuss the basics of air to ground attacks in the MiG-29 as well as a little tip from one of our viewers! We'll look at dumb bombs, cluster munitions and rockets.
