[Colour banding issues at night time.]

Banding would be great to be fixed but it doesn’t make night flight impossible, it’s IFR just like bad weather.

[Mod needed for disabled pilot]

As a fellow disabled pilot I think DCS and all video games have given our demographic huge resources. If keeping your Puma is a requirement there is also two keyboards keys that control rudder, the longer you press the more rudder they add, may be possible to bind them to collective buttons. I don’t know if your collective is also something your not willing to replace, but if so lots of throttle have additional rudder axis, the hardest part is maybe finding one with two throttle that can control pitch and rpm. I would definitely try binding the keyboard commands for rudder to a hat on your cyclic and see if that works for you. If not I know you don’t want to replace your puma with something that has but you might have to if that would work best . Lots of people here willing to buy decent used equipment in good condition.

[Running Out of Elevator Down Trim at 800 KMH]

Are you using FFB? With FFB it is worse, some say broken. The Su-27s FBW is designed to mimic a stable aircraft that pitches up when faster than cruise speed. With normal sticks I’m always able to trim enough but with FFB the stick is almost always trimmed all the way down unless I need the elevator authority, kind of annoying but I think it’s worth it for the joy of FFB.

The Thrustmaster TWCS throttle has nice rudder paddles, lots of buttons, and well priced

[(OB) Su27 Controls - YAK52-TEST]

I have seen it as well. I assign things as normal even though it says yak-52 and it works fine. Also on J-11A.

[Pilot wears Air force patches after ejection]

Reading this gave me a flash forward of the future where ED implements VR chat briefings with our own personalized avatars before or walking to and from the planes...

[Track files: does their accuracy vary by aircraft]

I had a training mission where the instructor was shot down while he was still explaining the weapon systems. I think I heard somewhere ED working on better replay system but no idea how to find it.....

[Let us shoot pilots out of the sky after they eject]

While I disagree with shooting a downed aviator, I think it would work to be included. Things go wrong and in DCS every possible failure even if unlikely is simulated. It could be a situation such as maybe a two on one guns and one accidentally shots his buddies parachute, friendly kill log book erased.

 

However I do think it’s right to be concerned about MP abuse.

 

I’ll stand by DCS decision either way, maybe in DCS 2030

[Aircraft Warping off Carrier]

So much for trying to see if deck sliding is fixed if my wingman can’t even make it

[New Forum Rule Question]

A few months ago there was a story about a classified Swedish weapon document was shared online by someone affiliated with flight sims. Supposedly when notified by the Swedes they completely halted activity.

I wonder if this was posted before I was looking for the Su-27SK manual...

 

Here’s one place with the story

[Yet another warthog slew upgrade]

+1

I have lots of soldering experience from being an RC plane addict before swimming took over my life. If it saves work and doesn’t cause a headache by making too many versions I’m all for it.

[SU27 radar behavior]

In STT it seems to handle almost straight beaming, must be 80 degrees or more, don’t remember seeing anything about in the manual or guides

[Gaming Laptop? Around 1-1,5k EUR for DCS?]

If you don’t mind what we’re youre graphics settings?

[Modern Air Combat]

Same requirements as DCS World, same game MAC is just a module. The trailer mentions an autumn/fall release. Hope it’s gets more new blood in DCS

[Gaming Laptop? Around 1-1,5k EUR for DCS?]

Happy with my Lenovo Y700 Ideapad, they had a sale last year when they came out with the new version. CPU i7-6700HQ is more than enough, but GTX 960m leaves some to be desired, probably need a 10 series for VR. I suggest getting something when a company is coming out with a new version, that way you get a sale, cooling is very important. My Lenovo would melt through the floor if I didn’t turn on the extreme cooling mode.

[WHAT IS THIS :D]

I’ve always seen cables wrapped around magnets to reduce interference/magnetic waves. I believe it’s usually on power cables covered in hard plastic two inches long and finger width diameter.

[Su-27 Flight Model Discussion]

Esac_mirmidon, thank you for the diagram and response, very helpful

[Su-27 Flight Model Discussion]

Ironhand where did you get the info on the tanks? I reread the Su-27 manual by ED after your post but didn’t see anything about the sequence of fuel tank depletion. The only indication are the individual fuel tanks lights on the fuel indicator, and I(like a lot of people on the English forums) can’t read cryllic. I looked up the Su-27SK manual but not only is it hard find, it seems to all be in cryllic.
