What is the keystroke to make the stick in the cockpit to disappear so I can see the map display better?

Gaining ground Question.... in gaining ground on an opponent above you and way ahead after engine is maxed out, would you suggest doing a slight yo-yo type maneuver of not more than 500-1000 feet dip to gain speed or just stay true and level till you get to around 325 MPH then slightly gain the altitude on him? Also do not use any form of flaps to gain altitude I am assuming. Thank you.

Days of trying head to head with a 109...we converge.... I have the height advantage every time, engine set 45@2700 (max continuous) I dive in at last second to hopefully jump in on his tail...he shoots past me and climbs a little and I chase for hours eating his exhaust never closing in. I use my HUD top of screen to gage the horizon hoping for speed increase adjust RPM and MP I use a little, yo-yo with the horizon again hoping for speed, he climbs higher I get further, typical!! Or With the in game instant combat/intercept I sneak up on the cargo jets down just one.... the rest scatter and again I play chase for hours loosing distance. I did get help (and thank you) with adjusting the engine management to get speed but it is not working for anything that flys that I go up against (hot air balloon included). I fly with everything set to easy because I had trouble with constant spinning ever time I banked the wings and wings tearing off...not good. I've flown Falcon 4.0, Il2,USAF, LOMAC, BOB, Pacific Fighters, EF2000, lots of Jane's titles and tons of others since 1996. Cougar joystick. I guess this one for me is too much to handle. I have been battling this air to air combat problem with this particular game for months. I am wearing out. I could just stick to air to ground and pray nothing flys near me. I do want to thank you for all the help, you are all a bunch of good guys, obviously better pilots than me...my hats off to you!

Trying to get in the fight! It looks backwards to me due to the size of the cockpit levers involved, as I was told you set the manifold pressure first with the larger throttle lever....but actually fly the plane for speed by managing the RPM, with the "smaller" propeller pitch lever. Just with movies seen and with other planes watched they power-up using a throttle type lever....I had all ways in the past associated the speed and power with a throttle type lever. I guess with the P-51 it is not that way. I have had problems keeping up with anything with the P-51. Now I am trying to regulate a 45@2700 .....It feels like a hot air balloon could out run me. I go for height and dive in on targets but haven't got the timing right then its a loosing chase event. Please advise. Thanks

Looked through the key commands and can't find the command for operating the propeller pitch - RPM lever. I have the throttle mapped to my thrustmaster but need the Prop-pitch ....please advise. Thank you.

Non flyable by player planes I understand waiting on DSC flyable modules as they come, when they come and happy for all the effort that went into it, but sure would be nice to have WWII non player flyable type planes for a little feel of 1945. Some of the cargo planes in the game now are non flyable by players ment to shoot at or escort, why not a non player flyable bomber or prop plane. Just want a little tiny touch of history sprinkled somewhere to tap into missions with out P-51 totally alone vs 2012 warfare only. Please don't get offended... just my opinion. Thank you,

How is WEP engaged? Thanks!

I have tried to get my speed up from 245 MPH. I have adjusted the two levers that I know to adjust it the throttle handle in conjunction with the P-knob knowing they are interrelated. Been told, set for around 45MP@2700RPM but me at 2700RPM I get 57MP. Is there a third knob to adjust? I can have 45MP but can't get engine to 2700RPM and visa versa. I have noticed a rotation with the throttle leverwhen I hit / like as in a motorcycle throttle does that give it a little extra boost? Please advise. Thank you.

Fix when I hit ctrl + esc I go to desktop...once in desktop I go back into game then button will work.

In missions when done..... I hit ESC which brings up the dialouge box to exit. When I hit the exit the button it will not take! The dialouge box shows a "game paused" in a yellow statement on the top... so I hit PAUSE/BREAK which continues the game but the dialouge box remains on top of the now running game. I hit ESC again to exit and the same results as before the exit button will not take. Please advise Windows 7 64bit, 4GIG ram, Geforce 250GTX/1 GIG ram, cougar HOTAS

I release bombs ok. what do I need to set for arming?

I have got the in cockpit amament panel switch set to rockets but what actually fires the rockets? I havE bomb release at Lalt+SPACE AND Ralt+SPACE but what about rockets? Please advise

Being new to P-51 my biggest problem is in quick missions intercepting cargo planes. I come in close, down one plane and all the rest scatter or keep flying straight. NOW… I can’t catch up to anything! With full throttle, no flaps and I can’t seem get over 250-260 except in a dive which will put me on the deck with my intercept thousands of feet above me and out pacing me distance wise. What lever/switch do I need to enable/adjust to get some speed? Surely 250-260 is not the best a P-51 can offer in level flight? If it is adjust the carberator...where is that..how?? Please advise. thank you

Where do you find them?

Need key strokes to keep plane straight in takeoff going down the runway using keyboard....I have a cougar joystick only with no peddals.

Can I pin the air speed dial on the no HUD view? Its hard to constantly keep up with the speed changes.

Just now downloaded P-51, installed it, runs fine on my 32bit. Anyone know the games keystrokes not metioned in the in game manual.(throttle/autopilot/eject/rudder).

My system is windows 7 32 bit! I have DCS world downloaded and I am flying within DCS world both dogfighting and ground on 32 bit. My question is will P-51 work??? Please advise! Gdotts

64bit!....??? Wow.... this is 64bit game! I wonder what good existing programs on my computer will no longer work due to changing to a 64bit system just for DCS games.

Windows 7 AMD athlon II 635 quad Nvidia Geforce GTS250 New install of DCS world off Utorrent install it.... world main screen comes up I choose instant action it starts to load.... DCS has stopped working... a program caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. I since uninstalled DSC and reinstalled but still the same result. Please advise!

Is P-51D a stand alone game? Do I need any other DCS game to get P-51 going? What other airplanes are in this game beside P-51? Any bombers?? Thanks, Buckeye

Uncertain of final I have prepaid months ago and gone from initial beta through beta 4. I am downloading the final version now. Will I need my password which I have forgotten to get this final installed? Is this final version in the place of the beta 6 which I was waiting on? Please advise. Thank you!

Every time I shoot a rocket or missle black shark crashes! I had this happen before and after the patch. please advise

I am running XP. Modman is installed on my C:\ The pogram Modman asks where the DSC series is located which is in C:\program files\eagle dynamics\ka-50

Modman help I have Modman 7.1.0.9 installed on c: drive , pointing to Eagle dynamics\ ka-50 as modman requested. Installed skins into modman...showing up in green (installed) as well as smoke mod also showing up in green with CDDS. I run the game from Modman's run game box......no skins no smoke mod in either instant action or campaign. What am I doing wrong? Please advise! Thanks
