No problem with the autopilot here. During flight I switch AFCS to STANDBY, after 30 seconds AFCS to ENGAGE then AFCS to ALT. The autopilot engages, corrects the pitch during a few seconds and then the aircraft holds the barometric altitude I had during activation of ALT. Try to fly level while engaging the autopilot. Maybe your pitch or roll angle was too high? The HSI flag doesn't seem to matter. I had it OFF or set on a waypoint - I always could engage the autopilot.

Try Wheelyjoe's guide, pages 82-95: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=225016&page=5, post #42. That should explain everything. :)

Well, the mini-stick really is crappy. Believe me, you will replace it, sooner or later. :smartass:

Can you imagine what my lady would do, if I removed her custom pic from the cockpit and replaced it with your mod? :D

Thanks! I had already found the magnetic variation settings in the guide, but I didn't know how to convert MGRS into Longitude/Latitude.

Thank you! Works perfectly in the ME as well. :thumbup:

How do I convert the MGRS coordinates of the DCS map into coordinates I can dial in the NAV panel of the A-4E?

@ Dev-Team: I know about your bug-reporting here: https://goo.gl/forms/lmpuKQCH8S8QlH0R2, but wouldn't it be reasonable, to open a thread in this forum, where we can report bugs, so everybody can see, which bugs have already been reported?

Now you don't seriously want to compare a damaged F-15, which has a liftingbody with a MiG-21, which is nothing else than a cylinder with attached delta-wings...

If you're landing the MB-339 in the same way as the A-4 (which was designed for carrier landing), you will probably touch the runway with the aircraft's tail-section first. That's why you explode.

As much as I know, the A-4E can't display that information in the RADAR scope. What you have seen in the videos (most of them by Gospadin) is a debug mode, that the coders used during development of the mod. But maybe Merker could clarify this?

Of corse it's still available. Try the download-link on page one. Just tried it and it's OK.

Try this:

Yes, it's a little strange, being marked as NAV not INS. But on the other hand INS means "Inertial Navigation System", so it actually is NAV, too. :smilewink:

I regret even looking at the first post of this thread. Waste of time...

Take a look at the attached picture. :)

Make sure that "Communication menu" is assigned to a button on your stick or throttle. Works fine with my A-4E.

Thanks, Wheelyjoe. I thought it's just a rotary button. Didn't notice it can be pushed, too. :doh: Sometimes it's the simple things...

Press "backspace" on your keyboard. Also check if in "Options -> Controls" the action "Hide/Show Control Stick" is assigned to your keyboard's "backspace".

How do I turn on the RADAR altimeter? I always have the flag "OFF" on the indicator. :helpsmilie:

Same problem here. DCS OpenBeta 2.5.3.

My first encounter with AAA over the Persian Golf. :D
