Did you open the cowl flaps? Check HERE how you need to cool the engine. You are overheating the engine. Keep an eye on cylinder head temperature gauge! Your gauge is over 300 degC!

yes and yes. But I don't fly it much, I prefer Bf-109, which I fly the most. Bf-109 is a tad harder to take off, but still when you get used to it, its not that hard. I would put both into same category of difficulty for taking off. I guess its more a matter of practice, how good you are. And if you are good, its not hard anymore, right?

There is a strange feeling when you need to settle at some specific speed, like coming behind someone and want to shot at him, or approaching to land: aircraft starts to swing from left to right by it self, like it would be in a snow pipe. Does it means its on the limit of stalling? Has anyone else noticed that? It's hard to fly dead straight at that particular moment.

+1

Where says that taking off should be hard? Why? I find it as difficult as any other warbird. But its way more difficult after the take off, you have to be way more careful not to do something stupid to make the plane stall, then any other warbird.

Mig-21 has the same logic, same developer I doubt they will change that.

Ok, I hope you are right. Just saying because the server I was on, was not using any weapons, it was for flying purposes only. Btw, what actually means increasing life span from 50 to 150?

I see it only online, there is that elevator thing (I think it is, it looks like it), which is lowered, its not flat with the deck. We can't take off:

Controls Propeller RPM + and - are switched between each other inside controls. Minus actually increases engine rpm and Plus it decreases.

I would like to get rid of the scrollbar which appears if there is more than 11 itmes (maps in this case) on the list of listbox contol. Its easier to choose if you see all the maps on the list, without scrolling.

Its all pretty simple and straight forward, as for any other aircraft. Use search in top left corner to find specific control. For the start bind the following: pitch, roll, rudder, throttle, brakes (both, and separated, for turning on the ground) , flaps (up, down) gears (up, down) trim (there are all 3 types, roll, pitch and yaw), gun trigger weapon release (for drop bombs) rocket fire The rest you can simply access with a mouse click around the cockpit. And btw, check all the button and switches arounnd the cockpit, to see what all the aircraft offers (infront of you, and on both sides), and try to memorize them.

Also from the cockpit view, when throttling the engine (from min to max), max pitch engine sound is reached at a half way through, from half way on the sound doesn't change at all. From min to max there is little difference in the engine sound as well. And I would dare to say it should be more more louder from inside of the cockpit. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/-pBV5GD8flc

Such a good feeling when a life wish came true, right (we can say a life wish, based on your words)? I feel you. Enjoy flying it. I will do it as well. And thx to Magnitude3 for an amazing job they have done of this outstanding WWII warbird. Incredible work.

To change the camera: hold right shift+ right control and num pads (2 down, 8 up, 4 left, 6 right), 5 is for recenter. To save that view, press right alt+0 on numpad. For zoom in press right shift+right contol and - (to zoom out) or * to zoom in.

Is there any word how much it will cost, $55?

I'm also getting some strange artifacts, some kind of sparkling pixels, mostly on the top or on the side of the view, like some lightening strikes (appear and disappear), and is all started a month or so ago, with V76 I suppose. I used to have encoding bitrate on 500, and I lowered it to 350 and now on 300, and it seems it better. There still are some artifcats here and there, but its way less, like 75% less then before. Anyone else still having them? And I'm on Quest Pro.

Trim works just fine. Try to do a repair of the game, and remove all mods if you have any.

Don't forget to include the RSBN /PRMG navigation for Mig-21 and the @Ghostrida9's work, which is damn amazing.

Mig-21 RSBN (rotating radio beacon, a rangefinder) and PRMG (landing system) are both on channel 32. This is specificed in R_NAV_data_GermanyCW.lua file. You say when putting RSBN Mode Selector switch to Landing mode, it doesn't work? It should, there is nothing more I can do. Its all there in that file. L-39 is based on beacon.lua file, which you have already modified and tuned it to channel 32 and you said it works. But as @Tarres said there is a bug in the beacons.lua file. @MAESTR0 can you please check it out? And can you guys add airports names into quotation marks of "display name", they are mostly empty now (1st line of code): display_name = _(''); beaconId = 'airfield84_1'; type = BEACON_TYPE_RSBN; callsign = 'PM'; frequency = 820000000.000000; channel = 20; position = { -101589.343750, 52.000052, -576051.812500 }; direction = 0.000000; positionGeo = { latitude = 53.432656, longitude = 11.784527 }; sceneObjects = {'t:-1113250655'};

Mig-21 is not connected with the Beacons.lua file, but only with the corresponding "R_NAV_data_MapName" file, which is located here: ...\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\MIG-21bis\Cockpit\Systems This is the file I've created (for Germany).

@Ghostrida9 how do you do it? I mean import your objects into a DCS map, and remove the original ones? I also did some modeling, they were an aiport buildings for SA map (forgot airport name), but I wasn't able to do it on my own to import to the map my self.

Lets be real, everyone is the DCS gets shot down give or take 100 times more often then IRL. So where is the point in this? Besides, its a game. No need to complicate things. There are way more important things to fix, add or what ever, then this.

hmm... I don't really have any problems, since if I need the tanks, I need them full from the take off. But since realistically also empty tanks are installed on the aircraft, would be cool to have them also in DCS. Besides, lots of 3d party developers for FF aircrafts include both options, full and empty tanks. + many want them badly, so let them wish come true

Read my upper post again, I updated it.

As far as I know, it's a no, RSBN and ARC are exclusevly depended on the files which is inside MIG-21bis folder (the ones that I did for Germany and Afghanistan for example). Not sure how it works for L-39, don't own it. I don't know if there is any code embedded into the maps, but as far as it works, it is only about those files mentioned. Here is some more (old) info about RSBN/PRMG for both aircrafts, which clearly use separated type of "in game code". So I guess the L-39 uses the "Beacons.lua" file which is in each map, I think so. Because this is the only file in a map's folder regarding radio comms. And it reads the types of "BEACON_TYPE_RSBN". So based on that, this is the right way of using navigation, from the map's folder (which works for L-39), but in every map except Caucaus that's missing, or is made partially.
