Yeah, lol! I just figured that out! Haven't paid any attention to the "bird" settings, thought maybe it was like how many birds I can see or whatever. And I believe it only affects FC planes, and I just started flying these planes after > 2000 hours playing DCS

Aha! Thanks! Pretty cool

Just before my wheel touched the ground my left engine took fire. What could have caused this? Are birdstrikes simulated in DCS? Because that's the only thinkable answer I have.. I immediately shut down the engine, that's why the fire is put out rather quickly. Replay track uploaded. (fast forward till I'm back at Mozdok and over the runway threshold) Engine fire on approach - Su-27.trk

Sweet!

Internet/google isn't helping me today. I'm looking for a table with the different speeds, like for example VSO (stall speed landing config), VNE (never exceed), VY (best rate of climb), VX (best angle of climb), VFE (max flap extended), VR (rotation), VLE (max landing gear extended), etc.. Preferably in km/h.

Has it been updated to fit all the new changes since january 2015? Ref this:

Same here.

Sorry for bringing this up, but do I still need to download the maddog's patch or is this campaign officially fixed by ED now? (v 2.9.11) EDIT : NVM, found the super carrier version for this campaign and couldn't be happier https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3311803/

It worked the third time, lol. I think I parked too far away the orange smoke both times the first two tries. If the dialogue was held a little longer before it disappeared it would be a lot more easier, since sometimes it very hard to understand what they're saying, especially the Scottish guy, lol. English is not my native language, so I'm not super good at getting all the small nuances while I pilot the chopper.

Fair point

I'm at this mission now, and have failed it twice. Am I supposed to embark (F8 airborne troops-thingy) both blue smoke and orange smoke? Last time I embarked the ones at the blue smoke, but got mission failed. Aaand it's a bit tedious to redo the whole transport formation flying thingy every time.

I want a Huey redux, or just simply a Huey v 2.0. I'll gladly pay for it.

I've only done the first 4 missions, but I think you should land back at London before you can complete the mission IMO. I get it, some of you just want to get straight into the action, but it's a sim, so I believe that's a fair requirement.

Just played it through. This campaign is really well made, and I couldn't find one single bug like an event that won't trigger or a unit which is supposed to be at pos X is not showing up/etc. The kneeboard info is clear and very well thought through and along with the voice lines you'll always know what to to do (and what NOT to do). The missions are varied and plausible, and fun! You'll fly both slick and gunship. Any DCS pilot who loves his Huey should absolutely play this campaign. Some very important words are said at the epilogue. I won't spoil it, and let you read/hear it once you get there. A solid 10/10

Military sim also includes CSAR operations with choppers. You can't postpone a SAR mission if you need to evacuate a sinking ship for instance. Most of our birds in this sim is day/night all weather.

Any update on this?

Without using 3rd party scripts which injects real time weather into a mission file? Or just manipulate the weather through lua scripts? (wind, temperature, wind direction, turbulence)

He will simply not respond. -UHF is set to 251.7 -VHF is set to 124.5 I've tried to to send him commands with every possible value of the radio selector switch, PVT, INT, 1, 2, 3 even 4. I know I got a message in the beginning, that due to limitations in DCS, I must use the UHF, which is position 2 on the radio selector, but is it the wrong frequency? What am I missing? EDIT : PEBKAC!!! I forgot to set the UHF radio to T/R

I've only played the first 2 missions, but so far it's been a blast! Very well done! And I love that you're not able to "cheat" with the F10 map, since there was no GPS in 1968. Brilliant!

Glad to hear that!

I believe it's from mission 5 or 6 or something, where you are supposed to escort a humanitarian car escort up north close to the insurgents.

The only reasonable fix atm is to turn rain droplets off in the options menu. Even though it kills the immersion and feeling that you're flying in heavy rain.

Yeah.. it's been more or less two weeks (tm) now. Still no fix.

Are you using COM2 to speak to your wingman? He won't respond if you're using COM1.
