Hi, Cruise mode hint will stay on despite proper configuration.

Thanks. That was a nice peek into the LTWS features then.

You have to put the flaps to AUTO before reaching 250 knots. Passed this speed they will be set automatically to AUTO, hence the big pitch-up movement. Actions after take-off, gear up, flaps to HALF then AUTO. Smooth flying.

Yes it is. Post #102 http://forums.eagle.ru:8080/showthread.php?t=194412&page=11

Hey! I noticed that putting the TDC on a spot on the radar was displaying target informations such as speed, range, and altitude. I used to call it a soft lock, no better wording. It's gone since the latest update (yesterday). Is that normal, was it a bug?

I did this: Engine air start cover: open Switch set forward Engine air start cover: closed Switch remain to the forward position By construction closing the cover should push the switch to the off/backward position or the cover could be blocked by the switch. Is this normal?

Correct, left of the throttles, red cover.

1. Yes 2. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=89282 https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/214771/ https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3301997/ 3. For example: --AMPCD F18_AMPCD = { x = 2660; y = 0; width = 512; height = 512; } Have fun! :thumbup:

Hornet will explode when Mk84 is released. All was done according to the tutorial. Reproduced twice and then everything went back to normal, ie starting the tutorial, following instruction, dropping Mk84, no hornet boom. Tacview file attached, it looks like the Hornet was overtaking the Mk84 and was then struck by the bomb. Tacview-20190118-093900-DCS-Lesson 16-CCIP Mode Bombing.zip.acmi.zip

It looks like a typo, radar azimuth should be 140. Typos happen...

This knob is called Integrated Countermeasures Control Panel (ICMCP). It's not implemented yet. More info on the Chuck's guide page 163. And also: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=211422

Perfect. Thanks.

Hey! Before start checklist said EFC on Pos1. When entering the plane EFC is on Pos2. What is the difference? I can't find it in the manual, in the NATOPS maybe?

Hey! Great tutorial. I have one big problem though, I don't see the 10deg bar on the hud... Any other visual clues?

Yep, you have to be airborne. I checked it, it worked.

Check this: ${1}

Hey! I noticed the Master Arm switch is set to Arm poistion when starting a mission/instant action/training. It also looked like to be set to Arm on the last F/A-18 video about ILS landing at night. Attached a screenshot of the VFR landing training mission. Is that correct?

Looking forward to read it. :megalol::doh:

Yes, you will.

It means you need to check it's OFF, nothing more, you have to check it in case the auto cut-off didn't work.

MVSGAS is totally right. APU will come offline 1 minute after second engine, left one, is online, ie. L Gen caption is OFF. It's in the NATOPS and implemented in DCS (I just checked it).

Interesting post from another forum, mainly about take-off weight. Lots of discussion/arguing about it also, that's a forum... https://www.sinodefenceforum.com/stobar-aircraft-ski-jump-performance-su-33-j-15.t8043/

Maximal A/C takeoff weight (carrier is not moving, no wind) for shor' rwy at +15C is 27 tons, for long rwy - 32 tons. Maximum landing weight is around 25 tons. Don't forget to use the "special brakes" this will allow to set full afterburner and have the aircraft stationnary (don't wait too long though). In doubt disable the FOD shields and check air intakes are fully open. Deployed FOD shields will reduce the thrust by 12%.. Raise the landing gear as soon as airborne to reduce the drag, and check it's up. If able "drop" a bit to gain some speed, level flight otherwise. Your left hand is free to move around, you are at full a/b not a single drop of extra power available. Don't forget to raise the flaps. Attached is a snapshot from the manual p135. Happy flying.

It worked, keying first click of the trigger. Where is it written in the manual that crew has to communicate with the crew chief via ICS once the engines are running? Thanks.

Switches checked, not the issue. Thanks.
