  1. Yes, press “F” for collective clutch. I have seen this bug but didn’t figure it out until now!
  2. Yes, but that’s not the block 1/2 that would allow Deka to bring it in
  3. Get Pakistan to buy it, I’m sure they have the spare change from the floods and J-10C purchase
  4. The manual on page 115 says it should have 120 km range at 1000m altitude. According to same section, output power is 10 W. Im sure at ground level, that 120 km goes down a lot.
  5. I love combat mix, allows me to take out anything but tanks. The HE rounds should have a 7m kill radius for infantry. Pretty sure the combat max is HE, HE-T, then AP. In combat mix the tracers never bounce which means they are HE. Assuming all soft targets HE all is fine. AP only really becomes necessary for high end APC, IFVs. Even with combat mix the BMP-3 is very hard to kill. With all AP rounds you can do finishing kills on nearly dead T-55/72 and boats. But yeah, you can always take S-8KOM to make up lack of penetration.
  6. Pretty sure Mi-8 is sane. Since it’s same team, I’m not surprised
  7. Yes, but a track is still helpful for developers becuase it records every axis movement and button press you make and how the mission is set up
  8. Yes would be great. Ended up having to bind 1 as left, 0 as center, and 2 as right. But would nice to only need 2 binds to go through all them
  9. In 1980s, Soviets found R-60M to only lock on helicopter with exhaust suppressors up to 600m. In game the Igla is set to same seeker strength. Even if slightly more in reality, that is not too far. In my experience approximate ranges are Mi-24/8: 5 km from rear, 2 km from side, 1 km from front Huey/Gazelle/Apache: 2 km from behind, 1.5 km to side, less then 1 km in front This also applies to Mistral with its exact same seeker strength. So All helicopters with IR missiles in DCS have this characteristic.
  10. In addition. You cannot use Petro as CPG if you have control. If you have control, you need to press C to transfer control to pilot in order to use Petro as single player
  11. Not to scale in which way? Any reason to believe it can mount Ra’ad?
  12. You made one?
  13. Yes, even with no pedal trim set you will still have heading hold in yaw channel auto trim you, and then you need reset trim to solve that. We could get rid of it completely by keeping MicroSwitch on all the time, or if ED ever chooses to model the pedal dampener switch shutting off the heading hold when turned off. If my interpretation of public sources is correct
  14. Do we know how much twist it’s supposed to have?
  15. Oh damn. Maybe I should add a disclaimer about making sure control helper is off?
  16. Yes. It is not working. I can show 115 V, but only to the position clockwise of the 115 label
  17. The LUA gives the PL-5EII an all aspect cooled speaker with a seeker sensitivity that is usually twice that of most missiles from its generation, except for the AIM-9M, which has identical seeker sensitivity of 2000. There is probably other coding going on, and that coding might be intended becuase…… The PL-5EII is a 1980s-90s missile, from a time when China’s only BVR missile was licensed Sparrow/Aspides. I would have pretty low expectations of it.
  18. Common mistake especially if you rely on older materials that are more speculative. Where is this 3D model from? The Air Force promo didn’t have it, so I don’t know if it’s “official” in any capacity.
  19. Even news channels use chucks and DCS screenshots without credit You it time stamps though? I don’t think I see what you see
  20. Becuase Mi-24 will never sell as well. And I’m sure they have some obligation as Viper and Hornet have been in early access much longer and have much larger player base
  21. I would think it’s about the coding saying “look for any [MISSILE] within 20 km radius”
  22. Yea if you launch it between 1 degree up and 5-9 I think. It’s up to you when you want a slower missile that will need to look down to target but fly longer, or a faster missile that won’t go as far but will be more level and thus have better chaff resistance
  23. I believe that’s the transition between manual and automatic loft, somewhere around there
  24. Wow, Pakistan using Dutch Mercenaries?
