Can you provide us some example track from DCS, and also comparison to some real life proof?

More news of today about this outstanding warbird HERE.

@BIGNEWY can you please merge these 2 threads? Thx

So all these airport codes having been given after the colapse of soviet union, you're saying?! It makes sence, since even if Russians would have have them, they would be different, different type of names, like for example Severomorsk 3, which has ICAO of XLMV. Way different then we know these days German airports/air bases. Anyway, they do not matter that much (who knows morse code, right ), but still, would be cool to have them. thx for the info @Volator.

I just updated/fixed some of the data in the rsbn navigation for DDR. I would still need some help from you guys, with location indicators or ICAO code (its a four-letter word) of some airports, I was just unable to find. These are the airports (No of the rsbn channel) I would need codes: - Mahlwinkel (6) - Altes-Lager (24) - Sperenberg (28) - Damgarten (32) - Gross Mohrdorf -- Example: ETSH is for Holzdorf airport I am not sure how Russians had that salved back then, but as far as I know, they also had ICAO codes for all the airports or air bases. Oh, and btw, the updated file is in the 1st post.

I did the RSBN for the Mig-21, and desiganted as 32 for the Damgarten. Example from the file: Since we talk about this airport, does anyone know the location indicator code? I couldn't find it.

+1 PLEASE

pdf version maybe anywhere?

I want to use some english cockpit labeling, and I just don't want to mess with origial files which are located into here: Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\FW-190A8\Cockpit\Textures -- But instead into Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\Cockpit_FW190A8: I can see the names in the game, I can also select the name, but somehow it doesn't work, mod is not displayed. Its still always the original (default) German labeling. Its like the default one is keep on overriding the one selected inisde Liveries\Cockpit_FW190A8 folder. For example, custom labeling for the other 2 german WWII aicrafts (FW190D9 and BF109) work with not problem. Any idea why it doesn't work for the Anton?

From FAQ: Early Access features  Full Russian cockpit and localization of avionics, cockpit and technical inscriptions in English.

Personally I was/am always making my own missions, even the most simple one in ME, so I don't really care about it. When you master ME its an amazing tool, and you can do what ever you won't specially using triggers.

@NineLine are any news on this topic? You were the creator of this thread over 10 years ago, so have the team decided, have you got enough evidence what to do with these gun pods under the wings? Possible additional armament: 2 x 20 mm MG 151 cannons, gunpods, wing-mounted, each having 135 rounds (2x135=270 round total)

I just landed on some of the airfield with a grass on it, 1st ot all, I was surprised on the hard landing like there would be a tarmac base, and then when I started braking, there was that sound of tire braking on tarmac with my Bf-109. Would be nice to fix that, having grass or some soil, which would also act like one. And another thing, the grass blades should be shorter on the airfield, looks strange having 50cm or more tall grass sticking out of the ground.

Make them as OnReTech did at the Sinai map, always more or less at the same size when zooming in or out.

Liveries can take much of that space though.

IC for sure doesn't pass, I assume. So for offline is still ok.

I have that MW-50 on board, its there by default, so I leave it as it is. Anyway... I tried with selector handle on Fuel (no MW-50) and governor on auto right from the start, warm up the water and oil, and engine shuted down in 30sec when off the ground. Can you make a track, how you do it? I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Should I not do that? Should I put that handle to fuel tank before engine start up? Learing the plane, that's why so many questions, and want to it do properly ps: I tried with selector handle on Fuel and governor on auto right from the start, warm up the water and oil, and engine shuted down in 30sec when off the ground.

thx for the review and advices @grafspee, I will try to be even more gentle before the oil temp doesn't get up into the range. I have no mods what so ever. @razo+r you can see from the track how engines dies all of a sudden. -- Indeed must have been the temps that do the difference in engine shutting down, but as far as I am aware why would engine even die or shut down it self when temps are still not high enough in the 1st place? I wouldn't say when the temps are too high, then its understandable that it dies because of seizure or some similar issue, but not when not hot enough. Strange indeed. Any explanation why? And what has the governor got to do with damaging the engine? Its is only meant for the angle (pitch) of the propellers. Don't get that connection either.

Sorry, no. I did that after the engine died. I tried it ones again. Same thing. Governor on Auto and engine rpm @ cca 2500, ata @ 14. Try if for your self, take control from this track, 20seconds after taking off (after I put the governor into Auto mode). And then fly. Let me know if your engines stolls after 1-2 minutes into the flight. Mine does always.

I'm sure there will also be one type of R-27T (T or ET).

No, after take off I put the governor into Auto mode (aft position), and engine rpm were at they should be.

Here you go, exactly the same thing (Causasus map). Really don't know what I'm doing wrong. bf109-k4_engineStall2.trk

No way? 10 bucks? Outstanding.

When I cold start the plane, engine is keep on shutting down. Why is that so? I put the engine governor into auto mode, but still. What am I missing? If I start hot, it works just fine. Attached is an my example of cold start. bf109-k4_engineStall.trk
