Think I will put this story to the manual with the next update...

In case the automatic flame-out detector isn't working ... ??

Hey guys! This time, a bit bigger update on the RC2.1b, according to DCS version Openbeta 2.8.7.42583. Hafe vun! Update 2023-08-08: - Added colored text layouts for all warnings (red), cautions (yellow) and advisories (green) (let's see if you like it ...) - Added black/white layouts for designators of - hopefully - all cockpit instruments according to the stickers in the pit (note: this was not done for the checklist section in chapter "5. Procedures" in order to keep these as clear as possible) (let's see if you like it ...) - Didactic references reworked (let's see if you like it ...) - Didactic references are now clickable (click the bold text) (let's see if you like it ...) - Changed text color to grey for all "[no function]" items which are not currently implemented in the module (let's see if you like it ...) - page 24: harmonized terms for certain cockpit elements and labelled some elements with "[no function]" - page 27: corrected numbering (erroneously started the list new with 1, now continues the list with 34) - page 37: reworked distance indicator section a bit - page 59: added picture of the Engine Starter switch - page 69: LT-KRAN EBK switch is now labelled with "[no function]" since it has no function - page 76: added picture of the Emergency Trim panel - page 97: added note for the B-scope (a waypoint in the vicinity of the area of interest is necessary) - page 111: added picture for radar antenna elevation in air-to-air mode - page 114/115: harmonized terms for certain radar controls - page 120: added picture for RWR modes control panel - page 125: changed header "Indications" to "Countermeasures indications" - page 235: reworked "Developers note" - page 236: reworked Engine Start Checklist slightly - page 236: reworked "Developers note" - page 239: changed recommended take-off pitch trim setting to 5° - page 242: added note "0." recommended take-off pitch trim setting - page 251: changed header "Data input" to "Data input / output" - page 297: added picture for Hydraulic pressure fault indicators - page 282: added picture for IR-RB FRAMSTEGN button on left side wall - page 317: added some notes for RB05 in A2G mode - page 354: added some notes for RB05 in A2A mode - page 371: "Output TAKT in mode SPA" is now a header, like "Output TID in mode SPA" - Changed number ranges for better readabilty, like 13,000 - 14,500 kg (many were missing) - Applied at least a zillion small text corrections here and there (let's see if you take notice ...)

Thank you for clarification!

@Zabuzard Can you confirm that ÅTERSTART pushbutton currently has no function in DCS? If so, I would label the switch in the manual with [no function] ... Thanks!

Copy, thought it might be a switch like the HÖJD CI SI switch, which can be held in place. Thanks!

Guys, can you check the notes section on page 317 please, I added the 30 seconds steering command timeframe and the radar behaviour. Thanks! null

Hi Mike, If I understand correctly, the firing of a missile should set the radar to A0 (if it was in A1 or A2). If my assumption is right, then this obvouisly doesn't work in the latest build, since firing in mode NAV sets the radar indeed to A0, but without moving the switch to A0; see track.

Thank you! Note: For the B-scope, a waypoint in the vicinity of the area of interest is necessary! Otherwise, the B-scope may not display any returns.

System has 1 function: 2 bugs System has 2 functions: 4 bugs System has 3 functions: 16 bugs Viggen has a few more functions: 383 bugs No ranting, but I really pray they work a bigger bit more on the buglist, the next phase (the phase called "after early access", don't know its exact name ...) is waiting ...

Sounds good!

Hey Silhou! 383 ... seems like still a lot of work to be done ...

Yes, they do as you described.

I am pretty sure, but this might be confirmed by @MYSE1234 ...

Take-off mode is during take-off There, they are stowed correctly.

Oh, I see, thanks for the headup! I repaired it immediately, now looking like this: null

Hi folks, According to the manual page 89: "The command steering needles display steering commands from the CK37 in pitch and course angles. The needles are stowed during take-off mode, visual landing mode (LANDN P/O), or when the HUD slave switch SLAV-SI is in position ON (TILL), as well as during CK and primary data errors." I tested the switch, it doesn't make the steering needles of the ADI to stow, they still move around. Bug? 2023-08-03_AJS37_SLAV_SI_and_the_ADI.trk

Hi folks! Recently noticed that the OLJETEMP warning light is not implemented on the left warning panel. Is the function itself of high oil temperature implemented? null

Guys, I am preparing another update for the RC2.1. Are there any issues / glitches you may have found in the version from 2023-05-17? If so, please post them here, I am going to release a new version very soon... thanks!

To shorten this topic, I will change the RC2.1 accordingly. Please guys take a look to the new section for page 116, and tell me if you understand what I wrote here please, thanks! edit: picture removed

I had a clean aircraft, no weapons on board.

My fellow teammate told me that with only LS in the waypoint database A2 doesn't work. With at least one more waypoint in the database (e.g. by adding L1 in flight) it seems to work. I thought A2 would scan in the forward area from 1000m to 10000m ahead of the aircraft, no matter if there is a waypoint or not. At least, this can be found in the RC2.1 on page 118: "If the radar is set to B-scope, the narrow search program is used. The B-scope displays the area 1,000 m-10 km ahead of the aircraft." @MYSE1234 What would you say, is the sim behaving correctly?

Hi folks, MT & ST versions of OB 2.8.7.42718 Multiplayer Caucasus A2 doesn' show anything, despite A1 works fine, see screenshots:

Hey uniform, you might use this command: DCS_Updater.exe update 2.7.18.30765@openbeta or DCS_Updater.exe update 2.7.18.30765@release (if this release version exists ... don't know)

Erm, it is not about removing the menu. It is about beeing able to disable the nasty pop-up. Hope there was no bigger misunderstanding on your side?!?!
