  1. Agreed. I think there are many dedicated fans on here who are more likely to give ED a break (as I am) as they know DCS is niche of a niche. They realise the devs didn't get into this genre to make their fortune, and that they're in this for the long game (e.g. updates still come out for A10/Ka50 almost 10 years later). However... Newer/more casual players simply aren't going to be interested in waiting 5 years for their favourite module to be completed, regardless of the good reasons ED may have for their choices. My feelings are ED are probably trying to do the best they can for their customers, I just hope whatever business model they use is a success.
  2. Thanks Beamscanner, always like your posts on stuff like this.
  3. But that's the point. The ability to keep the nose straight is a transferable skill, one that tail draggers are good at teaching.
  4. Not really. You've got to keep the nose straight either way.
  5. I don't see why not, both require the same technique.
  6. What's wrong with it?
  7. The Hornet isn't going to fly that slow! I can't remember crosswind landings being a particular issue, I just use the rudders to keep straight and maybe a little differential braking. Are you over-controlling? You could always post a track for some feedback.
  8. It was a custom build, commissioned by someone on this forum. They were not happy with it IIRC.
  9. They don't retract on landing.
  10. Speedbrake reduces stability IIRC, which is likely why it's not recommended to land with it.
  11. That means your technique/setup needs work.
  12. Hi WINWING, can you tell me if/when you'll offer a throttle only option? (I don't need a new stick)
  13. How far away from the wall are they? A plank of wood cut to size would be my first suggestion.
  14. None here. This thread is a good reminder that I've had mine almost 6 years now. :joystick:
  15. Thanks Degee, now I know what channels to watch out for. I just hope they offer a throttle only option soon (I don't need the stick).
  16. I've used Redkite's mission and plugged straight into a tanker without a wait. He may have suggested there's a requirement to wait, but I don't see where he's got that from.
  17. Source? There's nothing in the manual that suggests you need to wait to AR after opening the door.
  18. Have you set TACAN to A/A T/R?
  19. No radar directed gunsight mode yet? I take it as of now, we only have the funnel sight for A-A gun employment, nothing radar directed? What gunsight modes can we expect in future?
  20. Here. It's very easily repeatable. altimeter.trk
  21. Changing the pressure setting in the standby altimeter adjusts the readout on the standby altimeter, but not on the HUD readout as it should.
  22. :thumbup:
