I'm attempting to perform a coordinate fix using the Shkval, my fix point is a few "klicks" off-the route. The flight manual says, Set "И-251В – ПРОЛ” (I-251V Shkval – Fly over) switch to "И-251В” (I-251V Shkval) on the PVI-800. " Where is this fly-over switch on the PVI-800? I'm looking at the PVI and can't seem to see anything that says "fly-over". I'm not sure if something is lost in translation from Russian to English.

I'm having difficulties in getting a lock on a moving target. I hit the button to activate the Ground Moving Target on the PUI 800, I've got the target between the gates on the Shkval but I can't seem to get a lock that holds the gate on the target when it moves. The Laser switch is on. I'm trying to hit a AAA Vulcan as it moves down a road, but can't hold the lock (gate) on the moving vehicle.

I'm trying to set waypoints while in game at a take-off point at an airfield (like in the Training exercise). I've got my starting waypoint at the airport set, I now want to set the second waypoint. It's seemingly difficult to place the waypoint where I want-to on the map, moving the cursor button is a chore, and when turning the dial, it just moves horizontally. Is there a step that I'm missing, say I want to move the cursor diagonally?

Guess there's no way to have the cockpit instumentation in Imperial (USA), I may need to reset my preference to metric in the external, since what's controling seems to be the cockpit orientation. Kinda got to remember that metric kph is .6 roughly of mph.

Got it working, thanks so much.:thumbup:

Lego and Lange, I must be obtuse and somewhat backward, but I looked at the BS Thrustmaster assignments and I could find no [JoyZ] button mapped by BS in the Options/Control listing for the Cougar. I then looked at "Add Asignment Panel" and saw no JoyZ listed as available. Any suggestions or what I doing wrong?

At times I'm not sure if the wheel brakes are engaged or not engaged, sometimes I hit the [W] key, sometimes I don't, is there a way to identify if the wheel brakes are on or off? Also it would be nice to confirm the status of my helo, I can tell from the info bar at the bottom of the screen when I'm in outside view mode, but is there a way to get it to function when you're in the cockpit? I keep hitting [Y-LCtrl] but the info bar doesn't appear at the bottom of my cockpit screen. I'm trying to learn how to fly this helo, right now it's a learning chore, one day I might learn how to blow something up., but first things first.

Throttle Forword/Back As Collective? Legolasindar, is there a way via the BlackShark Options/Control menu to add a collective up/down by assigning that task to the Cougar throttle?

H-3 "Hold" - Trimmer Legolasindar, Your description for the H-3 button says "Hold-Trimmer". I don't seem to have any springs on my H-3 button, it just rotates, up/down and left/right. What does "Hold" mean, when I attempt to depress the H-3 button, nothing seems to happen.

I did a dumb thing when attempting to install BlackShark. :( A few days ago I purchased the download English version of BlackShark, after the credit card purchase I was directed to a webpage that contained the two files for download: 1. setup.exe 2. data1.cab While downloading the setup.exe file, I inadvertently closed the webpage that had both files available for download. I was unable to access that webpage after closing it. The download completed for setup.exe which was saved, but there was no way for me to download the second file, data1.cab . I then emailed 'support@digitalcombatsimulator.com' , informing them of my problem, also providing them with my serial number and transaction number that I received after purchase. It's been a couple of days, but I haven't received a response from that support email. So I'm posting this thread, hoping that an administrator/moderator can assist me in getting download access to the data1.cab file so I can complete my installation of BlackShark.
