Regarding the course index and commanded course, I think I should mention in the manual, that the KURS KORR has influence on the indications. I understand the system the following way: As long as the KURS KORR value is set correctly (according to the magnetic variation at that location the aircraft currently is flying), it shows TRUE. If the KURS KORR is not set, it shows MAGNETIC. KURS KORR will be set once the aircraft is spawned. Update 2022-11-27: Page 031 now looks like this: null

regarding RC2.1(beta): DONE

Even if they cannot be entered using the F-10 map (which the section on page 381 is currently about ...)?

@MYSE1234 I rephrased the section about the RB04 in the following way: "The so-called “grouped target mode” is selected by setting the targeting mode selector to GRUPP (Group-mode). In this mode, the missile will select three or more contacts that constitute a "group". The prerequisites for a "group" are that three or more contacts must be within 2,700 meters of each other in depth. If unable to determine a group, the missile may ignore the targets entirely. Therefore, it is imperative that the targets can be determined to be a "group" before the missile is fired in GRUPP mode. If this is not the case, the ENKEL (Single target mode) is suggested. In this case, the first target found by the radar will be locked on." Would you agree in this being correct according to what is happening in the sim?

@Scandfox thanks for your input. As far as I understand it makes no sense to enter a S1 waypoint via the F-10 map. This is what the RC2 says: "Data from the target measurement mode (MÅL) can be transferred to the target tracking mode layer (SKU). This is done by selecting the desired measured target in SPA/MÅL and then pressing the waypoint button LS/SKU twice in rapid succession." Are you sure of what you are talking about?

Thanks @MYSE1234 for bringing me to the correct thread! In this case, I would completely remove the additional labels from the manual, in order to avoid further confusion, to read the following only (Note that I scratched the Measured Recce targets, because why would one create waypoints for such targets when on the other hand M1 is used for target points ... WTF ??? ) · Airfields LS, L1, L2 · Waypoints B1 - B9 · Target waypoints M1 - M9 · Markpoints: BX1 - BX9 · Measured Recce targets M1 · RUTA points R1 - R9

Helloy @MYSE1234! Thanks for the pedantic tip! According to the SFI, I will change that IMMEDIATELY! This is one the "OMG" things that happend ... In case of the RB04 I would use the information regarding DCS, not IRL (makes no sense, we are talking about the module here, not the real aircraft). BTW: I finally rephrased the following section on page 31, in order to remove any doubts: Course ring and Course index "Indicates current true heading on the 12 o’clock position (white triangle above course ring) and current commanded true course (course towards the waypoint) with the yellow course index." instead of: Course ring and Course index "Indicates current course on the 12 o’clock position (white triangle) and current commanded course (course towards the waypoint) with the yellow course index."

Hello! Has anyone ever seen the waypoint types in bold described in RC2 page 381? Waypoints B1-9: B1, BP1 Target waypoints M1-9: MP1 MB1 MBP1 Measured Recce targets M1: M1, MR1

Thank you @Machalot for taking the time to start over in highlighting issues! The list of issues can be found in the forum, and was initially collected (I think) by forum user Flappie. Back then, I found the topic with the XLS sheet, but unfortunately I cannot find it today... look here: https://forum.dcs.world/topic/290828-is-there-any-plan-to-update-the-manual/?do=findComment&comment=4990025 Regarding your issues: @font: I have no idea which font they used, its not Times New Roman, and not Palatino Linotype. You guys have any idea? Update 2022-11-27: @sharpness (DONE) Dammit, you are right, I'll take a closer look and see what I can do (I can't see anything, because everything is unsharp ... *LOL*) @p. 324 (DONE): Added text & picture to explain that settings can be changed on ground via the kneeboard page "Groundcrew settings" as well (see attached image). Question regarding p. 325: I would change: "In this mode, the missile will select two or more contacts that constitute a 'group'. " to this: "In this mode, the missile will select three or more contacts that constitute a 'group'." ... if you are 100% sure of what you are talking about! Maybe you have a source for me to read on my own and re-check (or a good test mission) to make sure I'm not distributing big BS. Thank you so far!

As a long term DCS Viggen fan, it was a big pleasure (and to be honest a bit of honor too) to re-work it. I love to have things as correct as possible (because I sometimes forget things and then I am super happy if I can re-read it somewhere). The flight manual should be the best book available, and IMHO it should contain only "correct" things. What we should not forget is the fact, that original manuals were in Swedish language. So if you compare the behaviour of the DCS Viggen in the sim, you will get approximately 100% of what is written in the book (RC2) (forgetting about some little bugs HB is already aware of). That's because HB put 100% into it, which I personally like very much. During the re-working process, I could feel that the authors really wanted to create a very good book. In terms of quality, I have to say that the manual (in version RC2) was already very good. In fact, there were no "big" issues/glitches which could make your life hard while flying the Viggen in the sim. I hope, that HB someday extends the RC2.1 with things they might implement in the future (which ever these might be), but if not, the RC2.1 - in any case - could be the best flight manual you find for this certain DCS module we all love so much. @kotor633: Unfortunately, no . Simply said, I see not even one single reason to do so. I would love to have you read the RC2.1(beta) and send issues - if you find some

Yesterday I had the situation that I was in ILS mode, and there was no way to come back to NAV mode. Though I was able to enter BVR and BORESIGHT modes, but not NAV.

Hello Viggen drivers! Since I'm not in the habit of making big speeches, let's get straight to the point: During the last months I spent a few minutes re-working the DCS-AJS-37 Viggen Manual RC2 which is delivered with the Viggen module. This was done: - For the community - In accordance with HB (POC IronMike) - For HeatBlur to be used on their purpose, e.g. to extend it further in case deemed necessary by HB authors/SMEs - For beeing used in a new Viggen training project (other story, details upcoming soon) What the manual RC2.1 currently is made of: - All original RC2 content - Hundreds of repairs of community bugs reported over the last 6 years by fellow pilots - Several bugs/issues repaired that came up during the re-working process - Changed/extended many headers in order to have a better and more detailed "Table of contents" - Added numbers to the "big" chapters (01 to 09) - Added bookmarks for all headers - Added "List of figures" at the end of the document - Changed the background picture to a single one (not mirrored like in the old manual) [currently not part of the document] - Changed numbers for better readability, like 1700km now reads 1,700 km - Changed number ranges for better readabilty, like 13,000 - 14,500 kg - Added captions for all figures with no exceptions - The typical "Caution:" text appears now in an amber box - Changed contrast and readability of nearly all pictures - Changed some pictures - Added some pictures - Added RB24 (AIM-9B) section in chapter 04 - Changed the background pictures of the "big" chapters to fit the whole page - Changed this & that here & there in terms of formatting - All additions in this thread >>> see all later posts within this thread with title "Manual Update / Revision". Here you find the link for direct download: DCS AJS-37 Viggen Manual RC2.1 Last change of document: Revision RC2.1.2503 as per March 19th, 2025 Note: This document hase become part of your DCS module in February 2024! Look into the folder DCS\Mods\Aircraft\AJS37\Doc and find the file "DCS_AJS37_Flight_Manual_EN_RC2.1.pdf". Thanks in advance & have fun with that one! Yours sincerely, TOViper

seems back again in that moment

@BIGNEWY Hey guys! The site cannot be reached since a few minutes. Therefore, the login of the DCS client doesn't work too.

@Hollywood_315 @hornblower793 @MAXsenna These are just words, ... but sending you a big thank you for making this possible! I am looking forward in using VAICOM more again in the future. What a product!!!

Serving one ...

Thanks guys for sharing your experiences!

Hey folks! Just asking, are you currently experiencing problems with TRK files and the Viggen? Long time ago they worked, then they were broken, last info I have is they work ... Please just post if you are sure about what you are talking (e.g. you have used TRK files successfully these days ...) Thanks, TOViper

Hello Tonester! Pressing the TAB key on your keyboard makes it appear or disappear.

According to information from widen76's SFI, the following text could be used: "On the cabin manometer, which is connected to the cabin pressure regulator, the pressure difference between the cabin pressure and the pressure of the surrounding atmosphere can be read. At flight altitudes above approx. 5000 m, the pressure difference must be 0.20 — 0.24 kp/cm2. Note: If the cabin pressure is too low, the CABIN HÖJD caution is triggered."

Thanks guys!

Please send address, you might need a lot of coffee there ...

Amazing work! Looking forward for pages 48 - 600

... and why is it ending hanging freely with open end ...?

Just asking out of curiosity: During this situation, was your aircraft set to "Immortal"?
