I can't do a crosswind landing (perpendicularly) with 6 m/s. Landing gears will always be crippled, crashed or damaged. Are MiG21 landing gears this weak ? I did touch down with 300-320 IAS, <5m/s descending, flared and kicked the rudder to line up the plane seconds before runway contact. I failed most of the attemps althought I do 100% success in normal condition. Any advise ? Edit: 20% fuel, 2 R60 loaded on outer pylon.

"will complete" is a vague definition. We know they have had a tough time. But at least they are having many modules to complete. We know they need money, manpower, but we can wait for the next module MiG15. Just focus on completing all the others. MiG-15 can wait. (DCS has many incoming modules) I don't mean no offense, but this is a normal response from a customer. :doh: I love the Hip, but I can't read Russian, so I can't operate the helo at full performance without reading manual. That's all.

How many developers are working on this module ? It has been 14 months since this module releasing, still no readable manual.

Hi, I don't know if this has been reported or not, just post here to see if this will be planned to fix in the incoming patch. As the title said, my MiG-21 was loaded with 8 bomb (4x100FAB) each wing in 1-2 pylon, 2xS-24B in 3-4 pylon. I droped 4x100 FAB in the first pass, but it was still 6x100FAB in the rack. in the second pass I droped all the remaining, but amazingly it was just 4x100 FAB dropped. The number of bombs was corrected but the appearance was wrong. I attach the track for anyone who interests. Thank you !:pilotfly: Incorrect Bomb drop.trk

still no update from Belsimtek ? You did a great job, Belsimtek. :lol:

Use fixed pipper (caged pipper) because uncaged pipper is useless in a fast dogfight.

Keep the plane flying level above runway at minimum speed and let it lands itself. Good luck !

Hi everyone. Does anyone notice that AI always have the better radar than ours regarding MiG-21 bis module ? I tried a mission with 2 ships formation, AWACS available. On this mission I encounter a pair of F-5s, but the weird thing is A.I wingman has superior radar than ours. He always spot those F-5s at longer distance than my plane's radar. In this case it's 35-45km away (out of MiG-21 radar range). He even detects spike at his 10'oclock. This is not normal I think. I attach this mission for anyone who interests. Weapons Training.miz

2 days ago I tried a mission with 3 fuel tanks. I climbed to 14.500m. To save fuel I don't use afterburner below 8000m, that's the best result personally. I guess I should take less fuel, maybe 1 center drop tank.

I notice after mission loaded, it takes 5-10 seconds freeze for this module to work, is it normal ?

For the tail dragger, it's important to lock tail wheel during taxiing, landing, take off. With the Dora and Mustang, at slow speed below 20kmh: use differential braking. Therefore you must not use differential braking in taking off and landing. Just hold the stick back to lock tail wheel and steer with rudder. If you do right, taking off is piece of cake. Landing is a little more tricky. You should let the plane lands itself while holding stick back to lock tail wheel. But how to get this done ? It's simple, with the Dora, I do a approach at 220km/h, full flap, 40% fuel maximum. Before touching down I do a flare to reduce speed, keep the plane level 3-5m above the runway at 180-190km/h until it land itself with 3 wheels at the same time. Flying taildragger is really fun. :pilotfly:

I knew how the Mig21 radar works, bro. thats right John. I dont know if anybody comes across this, I cant lock target below 1500m no materwhat I do, except using Fixed beam. I even tried large target such as B52, still a "no cant do"

last night I watched a document about World War airplane. it is said that the number of pilots died in training was more than in dogfight. I guess taking off and landing killed a lot. Not so surprise it is hard to manage these tail-draggers.

I wonder if DCS will becomes a good training software for those terrorists ? DCS MIG21 BIS surely came at the right time (althought in Beta)

It seems low alt radar bug still remains. I can't lock target below 1500m. Hope they'll fix it this time.

In VietNam we're still using a large number of MiG-21 bis (about 100+ still in service). Sometimes technicians use these as radar cooling liquid. works like charm. j/kj/kj/kj/k :pilotfly:

Yes, that is not the AB of the 21, it is different. Im not sure if it is the standard one or not.

Hi. I came up with this bug while flying a random mission. First I started with a Mi8MTV2. After flushing all its weapon I jumped to this MiG21.then I realized the AB flame still showing despite the engine was idle. Plz take a look, LN, thank you !

Great news for this morning. Thank Leatherneck (y)

I see no difference replacing these files. It got even worse FPS, how strange o_0

+1. But this cage/uncage is useless IMHO because gunfighting changes every fraction of second, it's really hard to hold pipper on a maneuvering target like a MiG15 for 1 second to calculate distance. This distance calculating should be done automatically. I prefer fixed gunsight with wingspan ruler. Just fly the bird to a certain point and pull trigger. :pilotfly:

Last night I tried catching low-alt target again. I set a F5 at 1000m-700km/h same direction to my plane (700m-700km/h). I tried several radar mode (Continuous, Weather, Passive ...) with no luck. Target only locked when I switched to fixed-beam. (is fixed beam supposed to use with airbone target ?):noexpression:

Correct, I tried some missions with MiG-29/F5/A-50. I set these at flight level 1500m, my plane is about 500-1000m. I couldn't see them on the radar screen (even at close range under 5km). But when I switched to Lock-Beam the radar then was able to lock target. can someone confirm this is a feature of the Fishbed ?

Confirm, I just found out this bug myself. Check my track. KH66 in the inner pylon, S-24 is at 3-4 pylon. After using KH66 I can't get pipper showing correctly for S-24. http://forums.eagle.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=105185&stc=1&d=1411921348 Pipper Error.trk

in DCS dot label is not cheat. I myself had to turn on label since DCS Mig21 because I barely see enemy until got my ass kicked (AI can 'see' you even you are at his 6' low, what an advantage). Dot label / smart scaling is a fair option for Human vs AI.
