  1. I experience the same thing
  2. I can't do it on the ground but i can change it in the air
  3. Ah nice. Well I'm thinking it may have something to do with the INS knob. I'm going to try and test different startup settings. I put the knob into alignment before the left engine starts - I'll try not. Confirmed. If you initiate INS Alignment before starting both engines (right first then left) the left DDI and AMPCD will reset.
  4. So this is correct? Let me just clarify. The left DDI and AMPCD screens are supposed to reboot when the left engine gets up to speed? I just assumed an issue since I did not see the same instance in Redkite's, Crash's, Wags', or the Reapers' vids on startup tutorial. I'm not being an ***hole-Were you involved with the Hornet IRL? You seem to have much knowledge.
  5. Same on my end too. I use a Thrustmaster TWCS though
  6. This has only happened twice but after a shutdown, rearm, refuel, restart, and takeoff the right LEF shows a scheduled depression (not the sad kind) on up to 400IAS (the picture below) way after the left LEF is retracted. This causes a right lean during flight. I tried FCS reset and an in-air bit test which doesn't work obviously but I tried it. I slowed down to 135, deployed flaps and gear and looked to see the right wing the LEF was not physically (physically simulated?) in a downward -24degs. The wing looked flat when I sped up as well even though the FCS page showed depression.
  7. When starting the hornet, right engine first, I set up all my AC-powered controls and start alignment. When I go to start the left engine it resets my AMPCD and left DDI once the gen kicks on. I did an air test and found that the generator switches do not work correctly. Disengaging the right GEN turns off the right DDI, disengaging the left GEN turns off the left DDI and AMPCD. I've adjusted my startup procedures to start both engines before engaging and AC-powered items. Anyone else have this issue?
  8. HAHA. I feel ya bruh If you read the checklist it has typos. It says insure instead of ensure a few times. If I made that mistake at my current employer we would miss our budget by millions.
  9. LOL ...mind blown [insert X-Files theme]
  10. IFEI. Just to clarify
  11. So I contacted my brother who is a navy pilot and he said he hates VOR. Apparently IRL 9/10 VORs are broken and ATC assumes everyone operates on GPS nowadays. ILS will give you deviation based on what course you put in because magnetic variation changes. ILS is modeled correctly in the A10: you must input the correct CRS for ILS to be accurate. Now the problem is that there are many different precision/non-precision and types of ILS so its kind of hard to define ILS in general since they vary. [EDIT] Direct from him "I've got a few hours in both /G aircraft, and /A single-engine jet and I'm instrument rated. You put in a course that's published on the approach plate and your aircraft calculates the CDI deviation based on your course input. Since magvar changes, you may see published approach plate courses change over time. Think of an ILS like it's just a NAVAID like a VOR/TACAN but confined to a precise cone - if you change the course and center the CDI, you'll change your ground track radial just like you would on a VOR/TACAN. This is very important for approaches such as LDA - Localizer-type Directional Aid. An LDA approach is a non-precision approach that uses the localizer beam of an ILS to offset the final approach course to maintain obstruction (or noise abatement) clearance."
  12. Not for all modules. I like the MiG21, Mi8, Uh1, A10c, and m2000. The CDU is amazing in the a10. I just hate that CRS needle. I haven't looked into it but the presence of the CRS knob means that VOR must be possible in the real AC right? or maybe its a waypoint path deviation detector.
  13. I hate having to be so damn precise with the CRS knob. I just don't land it in IMC since it is not an all weather attack aircraft (in the game). I scratched all ILS out of checklists. It has to be a module specific issue because the MiG21 has a built in ILS and it works just fine. It is programmed by channel and not frequency. It cannot be too difficult to rework the A10 to ILS. Heck maybe they did this to make us buy an NS430 mod for the A10 lol! I found this thread because i was looking into the navionics of the Yak52. It would be nice if VOR and ILS were accurately simulated. They could add fake VOR stations just to provide some density. Otherwise I wonder what the point of the Yak52 is going to be. I'm not buying it unless it has radio navigation and ILS simulated accurately. I feel like I'm trolling because the depth the team went to to provide such an A10 simulator is breathtaking. [Edit] See below
  14. "DCS is known to have great flight physics, but terrible combat operation simulations" What? This has gotta be a misquote. DCS has amazing combat operations. The mission editor is superb albeit difficult to learn at first. But aside from non-prescripted helo inserts it is great. I can think of no other sim that I'd rather play. Anytime I want to fly I jump on and have pretty much neglected 'the other sim' for years. Razbam is great and i'm excited for their flight model. Magz and DDG have some EA videos out and I'm frothing at the chops. However, I would definitely love to see a living map like a certain other sim in Korea. I fly with my brother and right now we have to close the mission, delete what we destroyed, add units if we want, and then restart the mission. Not too bad.
  15. Try deleting your settings lua in your saved games folder. This happens to me about once or twice a month and it solves it. Bignewy is a pretty good resource. And sithspawn.
