EAF602 Red

Clicked on the link for this,, think its goosed and not working, can some one verify.

Same issue here,, re tested on update and seems to work fine now.

Only advice I can give you is do a left hand orbit cos the Tpod is on that side, also if you can drop the ordnace from the Station next to it (6 I think) first to clear line of sight,, Clear skies then orbit at 20,000ft 20-30 miles out depending on weapon employment Mach .72ish and use ATC, BATH and ATTH , once you have the A/C in a30ish degree bank angle,,You will have to adjust get the perfect circle its pretty hard, just increase or decrease bank,, hope this helps

There is 2 A/A refulling missions in the F18 missions, use them,, seemples

Also remember the 18 has Air idle and ground Idle once you have weight on Wheels push throttle slightly forward and then back, You can check this on the IFEI, 69 Air idle, 65 ground idle

Quick observation, if you need to rendezvous with a Tanker, just do a ToT on it

Some good hints

Theres a big thread about this already https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=239207 Red

I’m on here all the time,, must admit I did see original post,, but once I see your obviously an analyst,, all those pie charts and graphs,, scroll on by Red

Four of us flew F18s last night & no problems, we could all see each other on D/L Red

Dont hold it down, press once and you will see LTD/R, which means the laser is firing You should pickle first, wait 8-10 secs, then fire laser

DCS Debrief has excellent Videos on the subject https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCERjcJzbzHmoBVPJpqn9RjQ Red

Lat long is hundredths of a sec Precise is thousandths of a sec Precise has 8 digits Also when in DATA page click on A/C and you can change it ,,bottom right osb If you have selected and boxed the precise button you can see it change from DCML to SEC You can change it to feet by going into the UFC Watch Redkites Vid Hope this helps

I have roughly the same problem, Frame rate is fine with S/A page open, its when I switch on the counter measures from off to on or standby that the frames drop dramatically.. can someone else test this, and see what the result is,, cheers Red

Thanks kaltokri ..was driving me knuts Red

I have the same problem, but if I right click I have not the option to restore, is there any other way to bring it up? Red

I stand corrected, I have been flying flight sims for 30 odd years, mostly WW2, this is where I have obviously seen it, but just happened to be watching Fighter pilot podcast where Jello explains it at the 3.50 mark Red

Funny if you look through it, it will line up with the hud reticule Aircraft have had these since the implementation of reflector sights,, nearly every aircraft had a steel back up sight in case the bulb burst,,,Spit doesn't have one cos it could carry spare bulbs Red

Its the backup A/A gun sight, incase you lose the hud Red

Drop the flaps at the right time and you dont need to push it forward, half flaps at 190-200 full flaps 180-170 kinda works for me. try dropping at a lower speed and you will figure it out, Red

In my experience all base’s are Neutral, you need to go into mission editor and change it Red

Try watching this vid to turn up the ingame sounds, it may help a little, I can hear the gear lever now and arming the ejection seat.

Also remember to aim at the base, or underneath the vehicle or target, as the tgp will see through the target and designate the ground. I tend to aim just in front of the target from that sort of altitude cos your also many miles from the target Hope this helps Red
