    Crap. Thanks mad dog. Confirmed in rocket sneak peak video.
  2. MstrCmdr
    It wont be. Rocket pods are zoned. Correct. Im wondering how this will work. Zones cant be "pylons" in the current munition editor since those "pylons" will multiply depending on how many rocket pods are loaded. Im curious to see how this is done. Im worried were gonna have to go down a list of preconfigured pods with zones. Thatll get annoying quick.

    Does anyone know if there is any information on how we will load the rocket pods with different rocket types?

    Ya agree. Not a top priority

    Noice!!

    Mine was exactly a week later on feb 21. Nice! Ya helos are fun but ill never forget my first love the A10. ConstellationR, mongoose cm2 base, CM3 throttle, control panel 2, and some mounts and other accessories. These had enough buttons for the apache and appeared to be the best fit for the wide variety of flying I do. I was sick of replacing my TWCS or T16000 every year from wearing them out. These should last a long while. Let us know when your order passes processing.

    Youre really going all out on this. Dedication. I ordered a bunch of Virpil a few weeks ago. Still processing. They said Leadtime is abt 5 weeks

    Ok Im done with all this acronym stuff. Just wanted to know if it was full fidelity. Thanks for the help

    No way, I dont have insta, can you pop a screenshot in here?

    Cool. So no ASM

    I thought you weren't able to click around and it was a basic LOMAC aircraft? At least on mine you can't do much other than the basics and no clicky cockpit. Anyways some other guys told me that the standalone F-15C, not the FC3 bundle, has always had that at the bottom. I thought we were gonna get a full fidelity F-15C.
  13. MstrCmdr
    Oh ok. Ive got the FC3 bundle so I don't see the beta at the bottom of mine. Dang, thought I found a nugget
  14. MstrCmdr
    If you look closely on page 15 of the AH64D manual there is an F-15C module icon that says beta in the subscript. We may be seeing a PFM F-15C.
  15. MstrCmdr
    Guys, wondering if anyone has information on this. The current F-15C is basically LOMAC and not a PFM. In the AH-64D release manual on Page 15 there is a picture with the F-15C module icon at the bottom of the main menu that says "beta." Anybody know if the F-15C is gonna be PFM finally?

    Do you mean: On Figure 121, the undertitle should be -> Figure 121. MPD WPN Page, UTIL Sub-Page (CPG), instead of -> Figure 121. MPD WPN Page, UTIL Sub-Page (PLT).

    You big tease man!

    Haha. Biggest comment on release: Flies in figure 8s, smells like Fabuloso

    Found this video that shows forward cyclic on a clockwise spinning helo. The swash tilts left which would equate to a right tilt in the Apache since it is anticlockwise. I'm learning so much. I mean what's next? Are we gonna learn the Earth is actually round?
  20. MstrCmdr
    I have no idea what that middle portion is saying... dumb it down for me please. Im genuinely curious what this mixing unit is. I completely understand the pilots not having to account for the 90 degree lag. I have a completely newfound respect for helo pilots. I really dont think there are any questions abt elevators or ailerons. But if you told me to inspect a helo id poke it with a stick and say oogly boogly.
  21. MstrCmdr
    Ok so the rotor plane of a real helicopter tilts in the direction of movement, excluding tail rotor, torque, and wind effects." Cylic right, rotor plane tilts right, BUT the swashplate tilts up decreasing blade bitch at the 180 so blades are feathered for less lift in the rear but that effect is made 90 degrees later resulting in the rightside dip in rotor plane? Got it. Im gonna pack up and go back to the A10C. Bye guys. [Packs stuff and leaves]
  22. MstrCmdr
    This one goes out to all you real rotorheads. Im a spinny-boi noob. Is DCS modelling gyro precession correctly? The Huey does not appear to follow the physical law where forward cyclic means the disc actually tilts to the right thereby imparting its effects 90 degrees later = downward pitch. Ive been watching a ton of apache videos but cannot see the disc movement clear enough except in one where the rotors tilt right and the helo pitches up. It was a gung ho training vid where the helo pulls up and then tilts down to loose some rockets. In the AH64 ultimate weapon intro vid the aircraft pitches its rotor disc in the same direction of movement instead of being 90 degrees delayed. Example:rotor disc pitches down to the right and helo dips right. Shouldnt the rotor disc tilt back and the helo tilt right? Or maybe the rotor behavior is 90 degrees later than the swashplate. So the swash tilts right but the rotors dip forward and so does the helo. Am i misunderstanding this? Cmon kgillers and raptor, set me straight here.

    New Video up!

    Thanks for the information. The briefing labeled QNH as 30.16 and the baro reading on the hud matched the airport elevation and I returned to the same airport. I stay away from the ATC... So if they match at airport elevation why would I be 200ft off just 1500ft up? I'm not a real pilot... Gaziantep is like 10ft difference from the main apron to runway 28. All I know is I was 200ft off in radar elevation to the baro on the HUD when overflying the runway in the break which is like what happened???? At first I thought well I mathed wrong. Then the same thing happened on the next mission so I said ok what am I doing wrong?
  25. MstrCmdr
    Don't know if this is correct behavior however ive experienced this 2x in multiplayer. Mission began and ended in Gaziantep (Syria map) in the A10C2. QNH was 30.16, set on altimeter, and runway elevation and altimeter elevation matched at 2240ft. On the overhead break i stabilized at a baro alt of 3740 (runway elevation plus 1500ft). This should have given me a radar height of 1500ft however i was reading 1700ft on the radar. 200 ft off. What am I doing wrong?
