I do hammerheads in the Harrier....

Not going to happen. SC is paid, forestall is free.

Pretty sure there was already a patch that fixed the first thing you linked.

And the obvious, make sure you are looking at the DDD and not the TID (I've done that).

Because the HB AWG-9 doesn't work like that. The HB AWG-9 needs the know the ECM strength, pulse patterns, direction, etc so that it knows what range and doppler bins to fill and how full to make them. A binary on/off flag (DCS ECM prior to the Hornet and Viper update) does not do that.

We can only hope

It is a deceptive jammer only, a lock breaker, it does not do barrage noise jamming. This is more or less intended behaviour.

nothing to see, item removed

I have the opposite issue, I get LANTIRN commands with no LANTIRN equipped.

I'll ask the obvious. Are you in the backseat when talking to iceman? If not then you are giving Jester commands instead.

sorry to necro-thread, but I'm seeing some people saying the shipping alone was over $300. Is that right?

I think from a UI level the optimum solution is that if a modified input was never defined then it falls back to unmodified. Say you have a Modifier A. You want to have multiple functions for hat 1,2,3,4. You set A. You set Hat 1,2,3,4 to their functions, you set 1A,2A,3A,4A to their functions. you did NOT however set axis YA to anything, so even if A is active, because there is no YA it defaults to basic axis Y.

seconded. very disorienting to start.

it means not inverted in afterburner under 100ft for more than 30 sec. I was so glad I knew where the engine crank was.

Yeah, in that topic when the IRIAF F-14A is released it will be the best "red-for" plane in the game in terms of modeling. It would be nice if ED allowed an early A Phoenix.

Did not get that control input overlay to come up, where do you find that. Did more detailed situational recordings though. Sitting on Runway default trim: -1 stick range: -13 - +27 full forward trim: -4 Stick range: -13 - +24 full aft trim: +21 Stick range: +9 - +35 per prior experience, full aft trim, hands off stick take off, full forward trim as recovery 3,350ft 240KIAS Full forward trim: -4 per prior experience, use stick pressure to climb to 36,000ft leaving full forward trim 36,800ft 261KIAS 0.84IMN hands off trim: -2 use stick pressure to try a level acceleration towards 2.0M 36,950ft 683KIAS 2.19IMN hands off trim: +2 3,500fpm climb push trim forward result?: +2 not even pushing forward on the stick and trim at the same time changed it, not sure what happened before now Notable difference, I realized in previous attempts I was trying to set autopilot once I got to 36,000ft. Autopilot uses trim. This is 99% likely the source of my previous experience of "Why is my trim +4?". Also of note, full forward trim DOES change.

I don't have time to watch all of it right now, but I watched some of it. You gave me an idea of how to troubleshoot though, that control input thing. Between that and screenshots I should be good.

you don't need equivalent components to have equivalent performance. The dish size in a Phoenix is several times larger in area and this effect power output and gain. So the Phoenix and AMRAAM having similar performance is more about the Phoenix using Brute Power compared to the AMRAAM have finesse.

That last part is my point. I went full nose down trim until the stab indicator stopped moving shortly after take off, so full forward trim and controlling the nose with aft stick (as expected). Level acceleration at 36,000ft from 0.8M to 1.9M resulted in reducing aft pressure, as expected, until there was zero aft pressure. So at this point, I am hands off the stick, having previously gone full forward trim (trim held until stabs stopped moving while not holding the stick). I can still push full forward trim and the stabs wont move from 4up. I will however begin climbing rapidly while hands off stick. Only when I both push the stick forward from neutral AND push forward trim again will the trim change from 4up to 2up. In this case I pushed to 0 on the stabs, pushed nose down trim again, saw them move, released the stick, and saw they stabilised at 2 up instead of 4 up. As for the track file, I don't know what to tell you. Empty PG map with just me flying around for a few minutes testing trim resulted in a 6MB file. My inability to add the .trk is why I detailed my procedure to see if you wanted to test it yourself. After you leave a mission and you have the debrief you just hit the "Save Track" button right? Not saying it's a bug (I didn't see that I was in the bug sub-forum when I made this) just that it seemed like odd behaviour (especially the uncontrollable full aft trim). I appreciate you taking the time to work through this with me @Golo

file size is too big. Here's what I did. Hot start on runway, F-14A clean (no Phoenix rails) full internal fuel. no stick movement, full aft trim, watch h-stab indicator for cessation of movement. Full AB. Let plane take off due to trim. Full forward stick. Observe plane remains in pitch up and increasing. Neutral stick input, full forward trim. Watch h-stab indicator for cessation of movement. climb using aft stick pressure at 350 KIAS/0.75IMN until 36,000ft. Do best to maintain 36,000ft using only stick pressure (currently full forward trim) untill ~1.9M when zero forward pressure results in climb. Observe 2.0IMN @49,000ft and 6,000+ft/m climb on the instruments. Observe zero stick input h-stab position reads ~+4. Push forward to h-stab position 0, press forward trim. observe trim moves again, hold until cessation of movement. observe 2.2IMN at 36,000ft with aft stick pressure needed to maintain altitude! Tentative Conclusion? you cannot set a trim setting to max forward when subsonic and have it apply to full forward when supersonic? I can definitely see how if you trim as you go you have no problems, but if you try and set trim ahead of time you will climb like crazy.

will do

Seriously the whole lighting engine feels like it improved with 2.7.

All part of getting plane and missile radars to function properly with chaff and real ECM mode effects.
