The F-117 was revolutionary at the time it was developed. If you're old enough you should remember the Iraqi curtain fire over Bagdad, at the beginning of the Golf War. All the AAA fire didn't hit a single F-117, because radar simply couldn't "see" it. In my opinion that was revolutionary.

I wonder how refueling should work without functioning radios? :huh:

In my opinion, yes. I have deactivated SSLR, too.

Maybe you should take a look at your pagefile. See post #65 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=206173&page=7

I'd say they meant their contract with ED about the A-7E is signed and safe. https://flyingironsimulations.com/blogs/news/dcs-a-7e-corsair-ii-by-flyingiron-sims https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4228485&postcount=240

Others have been wondering, too. https://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=4230538&postcount=167

I don't think you have to worry about the WarBRD base. It's the best you can have, in my opinion. I even sold my Gunfighter base because it's much easier to use my TM Warthog and Hornet sticks with the WarBRD. No need to install any adapters, that are almost never available in the VKB shop. :)

Could you name those other modern and modernized sims? I don't know any. At least not with modern aircraft. :huh:

This! :thumbup: I don't care who delivers it, as long as the quality is as I expect it to be.

Edit am 19.03.2020: *** Verkauft! *** Um den Verkauf meiner Warbird-Ausstattung komplett abzuschließen, verkaufe ich jetzt auch noch meine MFG Crosswind Ruder-Pedale in der Farbe grafit. Sie sind technisch und optisch in einwandfreiem Zustand - siehe Bild. Meine Preisvorstellung liegt bei 240 €. Auf der Seite des Herstellers gibt es sie aktuell für 338 €, inklusive Versand (https://mfg-sim.com/en/rudders/1-mfg-crosswind-v2-graphite.html).

You're absolutely right about the A-4E radar. But the A-4E is for free. So the OP can give it a try, and it won't cost him one cent. :D

Yes. Been looking for it, too. :huh:

Ich verkaufe einen Adapter für Thrustmaster Warthog Sticks (Viper oder Hornet) auf VKB Gunfighter Mk.I Basis. Im Set enthalten ist auch eine Austausch-Kurvenscheibe "W", deren Profil das erhöhte Gewicht des Thrustmaster-Sticks ausgleicht. Bitte beachten!!! Der von mir angebotene Adapter ist für die Gunfighter-Basis in der Version Mk.I. Das heißt, dass die Kontaktpins an der Basis sind und die Kontaktflächen im Stick. Beim Gunfighter Mk.II und Mk.III hat VKB das umgedreht, so dass die verschiedenen Varianten nicht untereinander kompatibel sind. Der Adapter ist bei VKB nicht mehr erhältlich. Da gibt es nur noch die Versionen Mk.II und Mk.III (https://vkbcontrollers.com/?product=tm-warthog-adapter). Meine Preisvorstellung liegt bei 35 € plus Versand. Jetzt auch in der Bucht: https://www.ebay.de/itm/VKB-Gunfighter-Mk-I-auf-TM-HOTAS-Warthog-Adapter/274291115643?hash=item3fdd06467b:g:1bkAAOSw~wReWqQD

Just purchased the mini DIN connecting cable from Thrustmaster (http://support.thrustmaster.com) for € 8,93. Very fast and nice support. :thumbup:

Thanks for the link! I'll give it a try. :)

I'm using a TM-Warthog stick with a VPC WarBRD base. I also bought a 50 mm VPC flightstick extension. The problem is, it has a solid connector. I would like to solder a flexible connecting cable, just like the ones in the attached image. Can anyone tell, where I can purchase the plug and jack and what designation of parts I should be looking for? I suppose it's a 5 pin mini DIN connector. Is that correct?

If your absolute priority is ground mapping, try the A-4E mod (https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?p=3930806&posted=1#post3930806). But that shouldn't keep you from trying the F/A-18 out.

Wow, FlyingIron is also developing a F-117 Nighthawk! :thumbup: But probably just for X-Plane... :cry:

An A-4 would be great. Not too complicated and it was in service all around the world. I know there is a great community mod, but a full module would be even better. What the mod is simply missing is a working radio (no ATC, no AAR, no communication to the wingmen).

I had the same experience with Virpil support. Virpil certainly has high quality products, but their support is absolutely lame. I opened a ticket on January 16th. The answer came on Feburary 22nd. It was just a question about the processing status. Not exactly something Virpil should be proud about... :cry:

This! Changes in the core program will often lead to necessary changes in the mods, modules, maps, campains and so on. We have to accept it or stay on the same DCS version for ever. That's evolution. Keep the pace or share the destiny of the dinosaurs. :smartass:

ED, tell us where DCS is going (are we just customers, or friends?) I just have to ask it. What's your title about? Anything more than a leading question? How often do you pay your friends for a service? How can a company survive with friends and without customers? You can't be serious. :huh:
