Flying only which would be the best to learn to fly and hover in then which should be the second and third flying wise not system wise?

Might try adding it to the aircraft kneeboard within the mission if that is possible would be my best guess

Like I said to go from intial phase 1 to phase 3 completed ready for a unit would be three seperate campaigns One for each phase intial, basic and advanced training. Phase 1) ground through take-off/landing Phase 2)comm, navigation and flight physics Phase 3) weapons and advanced techniques for troop and cargo deployment A flt - training and practice B flt - evaluation checkride The flights and missions will be based on the topics covered by both the user manual and chuck’s tutorial for the Huey not in order but with his permission. Each mission will have a reading assignment the mission prior to the actual flight . You must pass the b flight prior to advancing to the next mission.

UniversRadio / multiplayer radio simulator
BlacleyCole replied to tacno's topic in Utility/Program Mods for DCS World
Great pricing I think those that were on the bobble should. See this sale to take are of comms -
I like to think of nttr as a training area which it is the main reason to get it is for the red flag campaigns that will increase your knowledge of combat flying. If you want an immediate purchase then I guess one of the aa planes out there. If not wait for the f-14 or f-16 down the road. If you want the best bang for your money get the helo,pak while it’s on sale 4 aircraft for a great price and I guarantee if you learn to fly the huey so you can control it will take a year of trying. Then you got the black shark to prepare you for the Apache in the future you got The mighty 8 for transport and other gazelle offers multiplayer multi cockpit.

Unless your a huey pilot
-
My best advice would be read the manual, watch the YouTube videos readchucks tutorials for your aircraft. Take it one step at a time learn the start up procedures then you can use autostart once started learn to fly by starting in the air Learn to fly straight and level, then trim so you can go hands off then use the throttle to climb and descend. After that learn to turn or bank so you roll out at your desired heading. Then learn to land and taxi back to the parking ramp. After that I feel comms should be next then one weapon system at a time once you learned the aircraft then start learn basic combat techniques after you mastered the basic techniques learn the intermediate ones then the advanced. This is a game it’s a full fledged study simulator which will require you to put in the study and practice time. If your having trouble with the brevity terms them write them down during you video play afterwards look them up using google then watch it again with your brevity guide and it will make more sense. Unless you are a pilot in rl combat version don’t expect to master any aircraft in less than a few months for the simple one a year for the modern fighters probably. Have you looked at what it takes a pilot to go thru the three phases of schoolhouse training before hitting their firstunit as a nugget? Over a year for most intial training phase is 90 minimum the intermediate phase is another 90 -120 same for advanced those are work days where they start before 7am and finish the training classes and daily flight after 5pm if they are lucky. Add that up and you’ll find it is more hours than most simpilot dedicate in their total sim lifetime

Mods for the disable Eagle Dynamics would you please add mods that allow those with lower extremity disabilities to be able to fly with rudder coordinated flight in both fixed and rotary wing aircraft, please.

My currency tm warthog setup is base sitting flat on floor. Two tall extensions this brings the grip up to the correct height. I wanted to go with the vkb gunfighter base because of the gimbal setup, I’m not sure what virpil setup is like but believe it’s similar. Does the virpil use the same connections. As the tm warthog or is adapters required to use the tm grip? If not great I could buy the base now if available move my current grip and extensions over and be set. Does it come with a large base plate like the tm and vkb? Then when they. Release a grip I’m interested in then swap grips. Initially I’d be interested in a b-4 grip like the huey and many jers of the 60’s &70s.

Introducing the VKB-Sim ‘Modern Combat Grip’ (MCG)
BlacleyCole replied to rrohde's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
My problem is. I want my base to sit on the floor. Then raise the grip up to the correct height using two long/tall straight extensions from the vendor in the for sell forum that puts the grip at the perfect height. I really like. The vkb gunfighter base but the vkb extensions are curved no way to add two . Mcg pro would be a nice upgrade from the warthog but not on the tm base. Does anyone make straight extensions for the vkb gunfighter? -
Imo it’s another redfor throttle. Be nice if the bluefor guys would build a prosumer grade control based on us and NATO aircraft the only one to do it was thrustmaster no wonder they go decades between models there are no compitision

For the initial qual tng would you be willing to put up with two-three ground missions just like to tng the first is a welcome intro breifing, the second is list of required documentation either supplied, or links to the location of the others, and reading assignments prior to first flight, the third will be a compressed fam flight of the farps you will be flying in and out of. Each mission will provide the reading assignment for the next mission that way you can knock it out of the way before starting the mission.those assignments will be listed in one of the documentation you will be given. Basically each mission after the intial ground tng missions will have a reading assignment, the an A) part which is the practice flight and a B) part which is the evaluation flight or check ride. Pass you may progress fail and you must repeat. Not sure how the grid parts are going to be handled at this point that is still be investigated. Another question is would you prefer a you tube video explaining each mission and giving you a demo of the mission. These would be paid actors hopefully doing the classroom explanation and a video of the pilot doing each part of the mission>. Both will be outsourced to qualified individuals. This will be a series of three training campaigns that will take from day 0 thru all three phases of your flight training. Upon completion of the final mission of the third campaign you should have the skills to be a full mission qualified pilot then from there you can practice and fly missions. Now as I said this is being designed as a three campaign package a forth might be added for those who prefer flying offline and want the unit style missions maybe two one in reserve duty ie peacetime and a second where you go to see the elephant. Each campaign is planning on having 15 give or that missions at this time iirc. Ok guys here is where you come in are you willing to pay for actual training missions where you are given the correct way evaluated on you preforming that mission this means reading documentation form one or more sources, watching a video (maybe) then flying the mission practing the tasks then the next flight do a check ride on that tasking and be evaluated and if you fail rinse and repeat if not proceed. The so called training missions I’ve seen packaged seem to lack the training flights or the evaluation they are the mission with out the instructor. If you are willing to follow this type of training please let me know if not then I’ll do the parts I want for my own benefit and what I feel would be beneficial until the huey goes multiplayer/multi position where squads can fly with the individual for check rides.i need to know if there is a desire for these.

Simicro, I may be able to slice two wavs together if that’s all needed to correct the voiceovers. If not if you agree to my other proposal I’ll cover redoing the voice overs from scratch

I went to remove an axis setting in controls and dcs froze. Then after rebooting I was in the mission editor trying to select a skin for an aircraft anf it froze up again I put it away thing a patch must be on the way since we had two updates this week the standard long One and a short patch like one. But my problems were after the mini patch. Are anyone else having problems with dcs freezing?

I’m thinking about ordering it.

Introducing the VKB-Sim ‘Modern Combat Grip’ (MCG)
BlacleyCole replied to rrohde's topic in VKB-SIM Flight Gear
Question does it require an adapter for use on the warthog base? -
I was hoping to get the vkb gunfighter base and a mcg pro and use my current thrustmaster extensions as they work out at the perfect height. But then I relised that. It will not work because of the different mounting forgot you had to mod tm grip for vkb bases. Does anyone. Make straight extensions that work for vkb bases and grips? I have my tm warthog setup to work perfectly but I like the gimbal setup of the vkb and wouldn’t mind the mcg pro additional buttons. I want the largebase plate for stability and mobility. I’m thinking of getting the new tm pedals and a maxflight huey collective and these will be my traveling kit. Or I may switch out my puma with these and take the puma on the road. But unless I can get the extensions to raise it up to the correct height it took two of the tm extensions to raise the grip. To the correct position. Any suggestions?

Ok I wii return it to the dcs folder I must have. Misread your instructions I missed that single post somehow

Ok I located the scripts directory under th s I the saved. Games path it wrote the export directory if I undstand thing right y. H time stamp. My problem was I never gave the three variables a value. Tried it Samy’s old spinning. So ent back in to the rudder control app gave it the variables shown in your image of the app then went back and redesinated the saved games/dcs/scripts directory hoping it would resale the export.lua file but it didn’t . How do I update the export.lua file after the intial version from rudder control. I’m going to try and delegate the export.lua file rerun the rudder control app and recreate the file with the intial variables but if I need to adjust I may need help plus I’m un sure does the rudder control app need to be running while dcs is to get the effect or is it what it does in the export file the workhorse? Also if you can explain each of the variables on the first tab to how it will effect the rudder process or rather lack of rudder. If it’s doing this set this here if it is doing that redo this number by ? Etc Deleting the file did work. Creating a blank doesn’t work need a button to use to. Write the file or update it after the intial setup. Also since I have srs I believe it created a scrips folder under dcs/scripts so it looks like this dcs/scripts/scripts and it has a export.lus file in it but I believe the rudder control updated the export.lua in the upper folder because there was a backup of the export.lua there. I hope this helps some with you plan to get it to work and if you need me to try another aircraft so we can configure the same and tweak it then go to the huey we can as I own all the mods.

Btw how do you pay for it?
