Wouldn't a Huey be a fly by wire type helicopter? What future technology was in play back then?

I have Huey, KA-50 and Hind for DCS helicopters. Each has its own flight characteristics. Which "one" is best for practice toward the flight model of the AH-64D??

Will the AH-64D be able to set up in imperial or metric for distances to objects, waypoints, gas in the cockpit instruments and WAS?

Gun is loaded rockets are loaded.

In mission editor armament on all pylons. Fire weapon with warthog trigger... Weapons panel showing armed switch up... HUD reticle showing.... selector switch for specific armaments I go through one by one and press trigger NOTHING HAPPENS. I have viewed videos on armament over and over.

need command to hide cyclic so I can get to weapons panel.

I have made a mission to start on runway hot and ready to go. Rotors are rotating good wheel break off. I add throttle RPM and give it a little collective. IT JUST SITS THERE!! What am I doing wrong!!

After takeoff 200-600 feet I sometimes get into this extreme spin that is hard to get out of. I have a TM warthog joystick and HOTAS combo with a Logitech G rudder pedals and use the rudders them to straighten out torque from the revved up collective in gaining altitude. Using the rudder sometimes isn't enough to cancel the spin. Did I go too heavy on the collective in order to gain altitude and it caused an extreme spin?? Please advise!

EVERY UPCOMING MODULE from DCS and all the other developers are waiting to release their modules contingent on seeing just how clouds are going to affect their product. Which means tons of waiting on our part and no insight. Especially from DCS..... so the whole hold up is DCS!!!

I totally blame the PANDEMIC...stuck at home since Feburary, no job, no going out to eat, no friends and DCS as my only out from chores no football on TV and a 18 year old daughter drama queen who knows everything stuck here with me too. HOLD ON....saw in May a few Kiowa videos along with podcasts saying coming in 2020!! So i get excited "big time"!... for months every day I run to the PC too looking for news on Kiowa!! Don't worry guys I know its the pandemic giving me this fever. Yes I need to get a life I'll work on that meanwhile work hard boys and I'll start gardening in the mean time. Oh boy, Walmart has a sale on top soil...let me get my mask. Good luck!

Let's all be positive now.

I don't blame Polychop after the massive blasting a lot of people handed them for not really wanting to give news of any kind. Everyday I check the forum and discord but Kiowa is flying under the radar. Hope to hear from them and wishing them the best!

Just a thought... Where are the skins showing up in instant action located? Why can't we use them since they are all ready there? They are beautiful looking skins and pilots let's use them!!

Skins needed Yes I noticed the new A-10c II skins missing from the mission editor..... where as they do show up for the instant action. For the mission editor the old A-10C skins and pilots show up only. So are we all on skin watch 2020?

Got maverick tv on and MFD SOI need zoom in zoom out

Do HOTAS users use the keyboard to access the many outside views available in DCS A-10c II? Due to the fact DCS A-10c II needs a HOTAS type system, using long and short for most of the TMS through DMS commands which leaves little room for views. I am curious as to where do most of you squeeze in the views or do you stick mostly in cockpit with IR5 on your ball cap and don't use flyby or other available outside views?

With a Thrustmaster Warthog with throttle combo, dedicated switches defaults go to DMS, TMS, China Hat, Coolie. Where do the all the views come into the works... on the keyboard? In all my other DCS planes I have (1) 4-way switch and a modifyer to handle all the views and not the keyboard. What do you have views set up as?

Which loadout are those rockets?

CBU-87...Thanks...I'll work that direction

What ammunition type produces the sparks on impact I see in the trailer?

For something just around the corner, hear nothing, see nothing, feel nothing. Hope things are going ok!

figured it out.... Right wing bomb arm is the front panel where as right arm is the lever pull-turn on the floor both of which I assigned an unused key stroke for. When is the 1000 pound bomb going to come out??

I raise right & left wing bomb covers - arm right & left wing bomb switches.... via key strokes. What key stroke is for the pull-twist levers located left of pilots seat on the floor?

The color MFD are on the OH-58E model and the cockpit is set up a little different. The black and white MFD are on the OH-58D model which this DCS product represents and earlier.
