Looking to use the Japanese Yamato mod but where to install in Openbeta 2.9? Getting ready for the F4U-4 Corsair to drop.

In pilot seat and NVS NORM switched on.... IHADSS in my track IR5 working. How do I change views as in Zoom-Wide-Med-Nar like I can do in the CP/G seat IHADSS?

Open Beta version

Just looked in my AH-64D Pilot......George AI Helper tabs and TADS Store Target was not there. I am all up to date on my files.

Can the EASY target list presented to you the pilot after the CP/G is requested by YOU to search targets, be lased and stored in the coordinates page? That way when you switch seats to the CP/G you have those targets on the coordinates page too?? Voice Attack has a lased and stored command that might be used.

As to possible CP/G seat target searching help? George is REAL good in the CP/G seat and you flying Pilot. With George helper up ...."Just hit W" for George and he Slave TADS to ACQ FXD for targets in a list presented to the pilot. Now if I am in the CP/G seat how can I have that same type of easy target acquisition? I have in the mission editor placed enemy targets in places fairly close but nothing clues me into enemy being there. Is there any Voice Attack commands for the CP/G seat to help me? Please advise...Thank you!

B-17 metallic downloaded skins show up as light grey non-metallic. One of the things I like about DCS WWII is the metallic skins. What AAm I doig wrong settings wise?

I have a modifier in AH-64D assigned from the joystick as (joy-btn4) "pinky finger" and works well. Now I am in P-51D and needing to assign the same (joy-btn4) "pinky finger" in that sim too. I get a warning... "this key is in use". Can I assign to both sims and not have a problem?

Having the current George flight mode shown in status bar

Having the current George flight mode shown in status bar would enable the in game exterior views an ability for George to keep up for natural flying in an exterior style.

Yes I guess I have the left throttle lever as a slider. the two Warthog throttle levers can be separated and used independently. My left is for power my right is for collective.

Throttle is using my Thrustmaster Warthog combo left split-lever to control. I have noticed throttle lever "all the way up" on my Warthog puts the in-game lever showing to be at the fly position to start with leaving a small amount of lockout remaining. Lock out dosen't matter because the warthog is already at it's furthest up throw limits In game control options- axis control-throttle fine tune shows throttle at total limits when used so it isn't missing any throw there.

I usually have a flight of 4 Apache's that I follow at 40-60 knots altitude 300-400 feet just to keep up with. More often than not, I follow for a small bit and start falling out of the sky. I increase collective or increase power (a little not much) but keep falling till I crash. What am I doing wrong?

Can't get Massun92's asset pack into DCS, I downloaded it into computer (as shown and picture too) ...C:\Users\"your user name"\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Mods\Tech\...shows File downloaded in right place. In the DCS game (second picture) shows in in module and switch is ON BUT dosen't show any further?? I rebooted the game...still no Asset! Please advise!

Is it advisable in a helo to lower either power and or collective a little bit and turn tight circles to loose altitude, like in an airplane does? This way you can stay in the same relative area vs straight line at 120 speed. I know usually you would about raise nose and hold as you loose speed but you also gain tons of altitude the very thing you are wanting to loose. Please advise

Is there a way using power and collective?

Tried nose down to altitude needed then nose up watch ground till I slow down then level out finally lower collective a little. Is this the proper way?

Pulled up controls indicator mine shows dead on lined up centered. I add a little collective and the ship rotates right (normal for a rotor at takeoff)... I adjust the rudder a little left which should take care of the right rotation BUT dosent! and it is still rotating right. I go all the way left with the rudder and it still is rotatinjg right.... UNTILL i reach 100 feet or more then it acts correctly like it should. Problem is just in the 0-100' in altitude area. I have my foot all the way left to try to correct it just continues left at low altitudes.

No left rudder on takeoff...pedals pushed left FULL! ... (0-100' no left rudder) (100'+ rudder is ok on both left and right). Warthog Combo with 3.5" extension. Rudder axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 0 Collective axis config: Dead zone 3 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 0 (invert) y axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 15 x axis config: Dead zone 5 X sat 100 Y sat 100 Curve - 15 Please advise

By the way... I completely uninstalled DCS re-installed it and AH-64d and Syria totally started from scratch! Wondering if I am crazy. If so... please excuse i'm 71 so there you go!!

When Apache first came out we had Forced trim, Attitude trim and Altitude trim. A cry out was lodged for a Forced trim reset. Finally, we got it in a weekly download from Eagle Dynamics! Now we can force trim to correct the flight, then reset the controls to recenter the joystick and pedals. My Force trim reset has disappeared! When I hit Forced trimmer down nothing happens. I have changed the bind to another button on the joystick and still nothing happens. Anyone else find this happening too? I have opened a ticket and it's been several days on this but heard nothing as to Yes... it is actually missing. Just to satisfy me is there a Forced trim reset?? Please advise. Thank you.

This is what I have gathered so far from P-51 videos... Formula so far in climbing from ground to 20,000 feet and making it easy on the engine. RPM... 2600-2700 THROTTLE ...30-40-50Hg ?..... RATE OF CLIMB VSI NEEDED "ZIG-ZAG FLY... HORIZONTALLY" (DON'T FLY STRAIGHT) Help me fill out the rate of climb if you know. Thanks!!

Dots1 ...Got a question on P-51D. Why in a turn executed maybe a little too tight does the bird go nuts and corkscrew into the ground? If flown gentle it will fly nice, but no fight is gentle!!

Flown Eagle Dynamics for 20 years started with LOMAC. A long time ago I changed the World soundtrack to a newer version of the same music, a more up-beat one. Everyone else is changing the individual module soundtracks keeping the original opening soundtrack as is. Need to figure out what I am doing wrong. Maybe I should put in a tech request to Eagle Dynamics. I know MainMenuIn.ogg and MainMenuLoop.ogg are the two soundtack names but where to put them in C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\<Aircraft Name>\Sounds\EditorMusic
