Sorry - forgot that one! Note that Frazer uses a standard throttle as a collective. I have flown Black Shark with a real collective, and it is much easier due to have a longer "throw". Mind you, Frazer is one of the best, if not the best, rotary and fixed wing virtual air display pilots in the world that I have come across.

As an aside - it is possible to fly extreme aerobatics in Black Shark. I was present when Frazer did this show at LLTM 2008:- It is instructive to watch the movement of cyclic/collective/rudders in the cockpit view. I believe Frazer flew with FCS OFF. Frazer sent us the track file and the pic-in-pic was created By EvilBivol, similar to (note fingers adjusting trim) I did make one adjustment to the track file. Frazer finishes his display by flipping the BS over on its back as he is landing. The resultant crash I thought was bad PR so I took over in the last few seconds and landed. So the sloppy landing is me, not Frazer! Other video of interest http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g99_sUT-dvY&feature=related

BlueRidgeDX is correct: Quote from the latest "Military Simulation and Training" magazine:- "The Air Education and Training Command is developing a high fidelity UAS (unmanned air system) desktop trainer for initial Predator and Reaper-specific initial qualiification training. In the meantime, Wiseman explainedAETC is using a desktop trainer from a Maryland Air National Guard A-10C ground attack aircraft trainer in the simulator portion of the new UAS Fundementals Course."

Excellent video - many thanks

That is useful to know. Do you mind letting us know how much you were charged for laminating?

I would be interested on any feedback from those who have bought the Tactical Map, and how you were able to apply a lamination.

Yes - no ramp - catapults. Fortunately that part has not been built yet.

As ex-RN, I agree withh Eddie. I hope it does happen as it makes a lot of sense for both services and the UK

It was just general interest. I have used these with Black Shark and they are good:- http://www.rcsimulations.com/cadet.html

Has anyone tried these controls with Black Shark? http://www.simw.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=dsp_product_details&pid=2312

Apologies for the delay in the delivery of the Flaming Cliffs 2 manual. This was due to delays in shipping to our warehouse. We expect to start sending out on Friday

FC2 in arcade mode - you have 8 different types of aircraft covering A2A and A2G!

FC2 Manual will not be received from the printers until 14th July.

OK - we will investigate further

The problem is that colour printing is twice the cost of black&white, and we feel that it would be too expensive for many users.

You only need to buy the Flaming Cliffs 2 manual.

Our manuals have hard covers and ring bound. See http://www.kengray.co.uk/lockonbuy.htm

Hi Arraamis Please do not get disheartened. Your question was extremely valid and appropriate. At TFC/ED we also want to do a multirole fighter! But we have to develop at a step at a time. At each stage of development we have to solve new problems. DCS;A10C has solved problem of moving maps and sensor presentation. What is coming next? We will tell you when it is in Alpha. Question: How do you eat an elephant? Answer: Bite by bite. But do enjoy this:

At TFC/ED we do try and meet our customers demands. Sometimes I feel that the Billy Connolly sketch (IMHO one of the greatest comedians alive, of course a Scot!) is very appropriate. Substite men = TFC/ED, and women = customers, and you will see what I mean. Particularly appropriate are the words from 1.36 minutes onwards. enjoy!

You do not need to download any patches.

Yes - there will be a printed manual. We do not know the size as we are still writing it!

I am testing DCS A-10C with thw 2 systems in my signature below, I find no deterioration from Black Shark.

A lot of you have now bought this map. Please give advice if you have laminated. Was my advice adequate or have you discovered a better technique? For multiplayer communities this map is a must have!
