  1. I just tried doing this, using the keyboard by itself worked but I had issues with both rudder pedals, and HOTAS, to check further I dug my old X52 Pro out and encountered the same issue with it. Thanks.
  2. The deadzones are because there is a lot of slop in the stick (an early X55) and the detent in my rudder pedals is nearly unnoticeable at this point. I am not running any joystick software and have no macros set. In the new video I use only trim and have my control indicator showing unable to engage ap at all, part way through I unmap the pitch and roll axis from the joystick and using only keyboard am still unable to engage ap this time. I appreciate all the help.
  3. Thanks for editing the comment so the video shows. I have deadzones set of 5 pitch, 8 roll, and 5 yaw, when I am hands off there is no input from the stick or pedals.
  4. Here you are I was able to engage it a few times during that test and there are points whereafter it had disengaged I was unable to re-engage it without a lot of key presses. AP Test.trk
  5. Hi, I am unable to engage the autopilot for more than a second or two. Every time I try to engage it with the Autopilot Reference / Nosewheel Steering button either nothing will happen or it will turn on for a very short time before turning off again, both the A/P REF light and the actual autopilot input reflect this. I have tried mapping other buttons to this and it has no effect. All my SAS channels are turned on and I am attempting to engage it during straight and level flight. I have tried this from hot start and spawning in the air on the Caucasus, Persian Gulf, and Nevada. I will try cold and dark later today. I have also tried reinstalling the F-14 to no effect.
  6. You are understanding it correctly. I would suggest that yes, I made it myself while taking Graphic Communication and Print Technology and having access to things like hydraulic cutters and printing presses made it a nicer product in the end. The tabs I ended up cutting with a craft knife and a ruler, and just freehanding the corners as our corner rounder was not able to do inside curves and the tabs were not deep enough for the outside corners of the tabs. Glad I could be of help.
  7. Alright, the larger pages are 5"x8" and the smaller pages are 4.5"x8". All pages up to and including the first tab are 5"x8", then they go to 4.5"x8" with the remaining tabbed pages remaining at 5"x8" I recommend printing the cover to the first tab with heavier stock then making every tab and the last page a heavier stock as well. Hopefully that all makes sense, if not I will try explaining it better and with more pictures. Anyways here are some other pictures the will hopefully help and some files already set to the right size with cut marks. First I found this picture while researching a different topic in my typography class a picture of an actual F-14D pocket checklist, it was incredibly helpful in understanding how to assemble the pocket checklist. https://hess.fm/blog/boldface (Fairly interesting read in my opinion) The only thing I couldn't get at the time was the larger piece of blue plastic they use for the back cover. You can ignore the file called changes if you do not want the list of changes made to the document over time, though it might screw up the page ordering as I left them in my copy. As another note this is 2001 copy of the checklist so not everything will match up with the aircraft we are getting. If anyone has a more time appropriate B model checklist I'd be interested in seeing it. Thanks for the idea about the iPad Rudel, I think I will put the full size manual on it for convenience. Hope this helps. NAVAIR 01-F14AAP-1B Tabs Color.pdf F14AAP-1B Tabs Removed.pdf Changes NAVAIR 01-F14AAP-1B.pdf
  8. I'll check the pocket checklist when I get home it has different sized pages and tabs behind each arrow on the cover that you might want to use a heavier paper for as well (I will post a picture showing how they are setup once home as well) the full NATOPS is 8.5"x11" or at least what I printed was. It was a fun project to make still havent gotten the full NATOPS bound yet.
  9. VF-191 was also an A model squadron they existed from 86 to 88 along with their sister squadron VF-194 Red Lightnings, maybe we will get such shirts when the A model comes out. Personally I've been hoping for a 142 shirt.
  10. That worked. Thank you very much. -Josh
  11. Hi Ciribob, I've been trying to get SRS set up for my group but have been running into a strange issue with the server. When I launch the server I get a windows error saying that the program has stopped working and windows will close the program, if I click on the close program button or x out of the error window I will get about a minute before the server actually closes, in this time I am able to click on all the buttons and change settings that are then saved. The only hing I have not been able to do in this minute or so is to get a client to connect to it. I am running Windows 10. The server logs are below and are from a newly downloaded and clean reinstalled, install. 2018-01-10 17:02:55.1534 | Ciribob.DCS.SimpleRadio.Standalone.Server.Network.ServerState | Unable to read banned.txt System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not find file 'E:\Program Files\DCS-SimpleRadio-Standalone\banned.txt'.

Any insight into this would be appreciated. Thanks -Josh
  12. Sitting on the ground at Batumi with 28% fuel set in the mission editor I burned fuel until I got the flashing fuel lights (at 2100 total and 700 in both left and right) then I asked the ground crew to refuel me as soon as the started fueling the internal count zeroed itself and the lights could not be dismissed.
  13. Whenever I refuel either on the ground/ship or from any tanker the L fuel and R fuel lights will start flashing and not stop regardless of what my actual fuel state is. Additionally as soon as fuel is added by either of the above methods the fuel gauge will only show the total fuel level and display 0000 for your left and right tank regardless of what position the dial is in. This has happened in every mission I have made including nothing but the harrier on the ground and adjusting the fuel by the loadout editor. This picture was taken just after I left the tanker it shows both the flashing lights and the zeroed out internal fuel gauge https://imgur.com/a/fIX1e Having lots of fun with it anyways, thanks for a great product.
  14. The game will crash after a fired M257 Rocket begins to deploy its parachute and starts its burn. It happens on every aircraft I have tried it on so far always at the same point in the rockets flight. It is easy to reproduce by just adding a 257 pod to the A-10 (or other aircraft) and firing one off in the mission editor.
  15. If you have a copy or can find one of NAVAIR 01-F14AAP-1 chapter 22 has lots of diagrams for the HUD and VDI in the different modes.
