Hey that worked!!! I have no idea why Game Flight mode was checked as I've never used it in any of my modules before. Thanks for the help!!!

Heres a video of the issue, first in a hot start, then in a cold start: VIDEO

Hi all, not sure if this is a bug, or more likely, something I'm doing wrong. On taxi, I have my throttles set to fly. When I pull roughly 30% collective and release the brakes, the heli start to move backwards, even with full cyclic forwards. It happens on both cold and hot starts, about 90% of the time. Even if I take a vertical take-off, I have no control over pitch. It's very odd because in the F2 external view, I can see my main rotor tilting forward when I push the cyclic. Last night I started up as the Pilot, then switch to the CPG seat and told George to take off. It seems he had the same problem and crashed just after take-off. If I go direct into the training missions (already airborne), I don't have this problem. Any ideas what I am doing wrong, or what I'm not doing?

Thanks for all the responses. In answer to one or two people, yes I've been inputting the Easting coords as 0xx,xx,xx. I wasn't aware of the Markpoint work-around and I'm fairly new to the AV8B, but I did notice that I was able to create waypoints in some servers, but not in others. It makes sense now that it must've been in the servers that already had waypoints where it was working okay. Would someone provide a step-by-step guide on how to add a Markpoint and do the work-around? Thanks!

Hi all, I'm having trouble creating manual waypoints in the jet. I follow Chuck's Guide every time, but it's only ever worked once. On most MP Training servers, there are no set waypoints, so I want to be able to create my own. I have followed Chucks Guide to the letter, except for the 1st line because I don't want to insert a WPT after a pre-existing one because I have no waypoints programmed. So I just press 1 ENT. I then see *1 on the UFC Scratchpad. Then I hit POS on the OB buttons, enter the cords (N-2 followed by N cords and hit enter, then hit POS again on the OB buttons, hit E-4 on the UFC followed by 0xx xx xx coords and ENT). I also usually enter Elev data in the same way. I've been advised to try hitting SAVE also after each coord entry but that doesn't seem to have an effect. Anyway, I can see from the EHSD, that the WPT (1) has been created and I can cycle to it using the relevant OSBs but the coords on the EHSD still say 00'00"00 on both lines and on the HUD Nav data shows Wpt 1 0.0Nm. If I try to enter the coords again, they are already stored in the UFC because when I hit POS, I see N xx'xxx"xx and hit POS again, I see E xx'xxx'xx in the scratchpad. But I can't get the coords to transfer across to the EHSD and the Nav system. What am I doing wrong? Any help would be appreciated!!! Thanks

Anybody got one?

Since purchasing and downloading the Persian Gulf terrain, I'm unable to join ANY multiplayer servers. The population of the server is irrelevant, I've tried to join servers with lots of players and also empty ones with the same result. I wait on the loading screen for 5-6 minutes, then get kicked back to the Main Menu Screen. What's odd is that when I exit the game, for a split-second, I see the Role Select screen of the server I just tried to join. Here's a video of my experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spyO2rxyO3U I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I enjoyed making it :megalol: Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Sorry if this has already been asked but I couldn't find any answers in the forum. How do you navigate in the spitfire? There's no handy icon showing your position on the map irl, so how is it done? Does anyone have any tutorials/videos?
