looks awesome :D if this quality is near FC russian pits, (wich i bet it is by the looks of it) my download is assured

I went from 52pro to x65 and i must say im a bit dissapointed 1st. of all the rudder is crap with force sensing.. pedals are highly recommended with this stick and keep the joystick rudder disabled. 2nd. there is no slider bar, only rotary`s so no zoom axis if you use rot for trim. 3rd. buttoncontrol is hard if keys are mapped on both throttles and in different positions ex: 50% and 100% as soon as something better shows up my65f is gone.. i miss my 52pro :(

to clearify more... its the key to the left of your 1 key.. above TAB on the left side.

my experience is that demoes usually runs a bit better that full games Probably because its less content

Now this is just a piss in the ocean, but i noticed when ejecting from high altitude in f15 my chair fell at 1200kmh with the brake chute on... when the chair released i went from 1200 to 45 in 1 second... now how would any1 survive that :P

:O stunning i really loved the RAZBAM prowler handling physics in fsx aaaw the memories

Had x45 x52 and now x65 The best stick i ever had was the x52pro all the lights on the stick can be disabled through control panel so it doesnt scream for attention. also the slider on the throttle was great for Zoom axis ( miss that on my x65 :( all in all the price vs what you get i think the x52pro is your best choice YOU HEAR THAT SAITEK!!!! I WANT MY SLIDER BACK ON THE X72 :P

you can try to bind a different key to pause/unpause no?

hi as im starting on the SU25t campaign and tried the 1st mission like 20times+ dying every time. i simply cannot get into shkval visual range until its too late. i try to take out a mobile radar with a kh-58 or whatever (ARM missile) using the mercury/shkval pod, and i simply dont get a visual on the screen until im too close and the a**hole launches his sam at me. now i know i could use the phan pod thingie but that does not track mobile strela`s and the issue is the same here... when i zoom in max it gets visual at about 4km and by the time ive locked on my vihkrs ive been launched on and killed so my q is: is there anyway to increase vehicle visual range on the shkval screen?editing a config file or something to like max accuracy on the 23x zoom (guessing like 30km or so, might be more, might be less) cause this current 4km aint working for me got all settings maxed out graphically. also play on simulation mode

Well here`s how i do it. Take off and procede to mission area to the rear of friendly armor ... gun barrels pointing my way = enemy`s in the planner its a good idea to memorize where friendlys are and approach the mission area from there

visibility at high? do you have water on Normal or High?

I used the slider on my throttle for zooming (x52pro)for much faster zooming.. i recommend you try it out :)

also try to bind the rotarys for trim and try to trim it up just as you enter the game

Have you tried updating your x45 drivers? http://www.saitek.com and get the latest drivers and/or software.. my x45 never messed up lomac, but i often checked for new drivers

Great video GGT, but sadly it didnt help me much :/ but thank you very much for making it. i noticed as you connected you had a slight draft upwards and the plane corrected it... if that had been me the plane would have kept on going upwards until i DC from ze rod. ill try to make a track and see if i can show you my trouble

http://lockon.co.uk/index.php?end_pos=1852&scr=default Just click the vid you wanna see via youtube :)

ok thnx for the tips... been going on for 2 hours straight without any luck :/ i looked at lockon official for a training video, but could not find one... if one of you got a hot youtube tip, i would appreciate it very much :)

oh yeah btw... i discovered that screen today myself :D

YE... WTB the payload select screen when pressing comms/maint/payload. select what i want and press ok, and then the ground crew starts to arm/rearm my plane. could that be possible? would make my life a whole lot easier :D

Right now im experiencing NERDRAGE for the first time this year :cry: Fresh install applied patch and no mods... every goddamn time i connect the hose with the refueling bay my plane control freezes up and starts to bank randomly off course (a10,f15,su33) nothing responds until the hose is ripped loose of the plane, then its all back to normal and realign with the tanker.. i do that and guess what:mad: once its connected it freezes up again and again and again:( to me a2a refuel is the ultimate test of skills while airborne, and not being able to complete it makes me very very frustrated. i fly straight with autothrottle engaged and the x65 on default force 1 setting. hope some of you are able to help a sad norwegian pilot:D

Bah... just gimme basic systems and surfaces, 10-20 diffrent era planes, real worldwide scenery and im sold :P

All?

+1 :D best stick i ever had

Lets stick to singel seaters :P 1. if your gunning you will hate your ai flying skills 2.if your flying you will hate your ai gunning skills thats just the way it is :P now a DCS: Osprey or a DCS F-35b Would be awesome for a SVTOL. i have no idea if the russians have something equal to this

The key to sucess is to take your time finding a good position to shoot from, my playstyle for example: 1. stay really low at slow speed until ALL enemy Fixed wings are out/dead of the Area of operation. 2. look for a good slightly elevated hill to stay really low over (2-5m) or something to hide behind at 6-8km. also i get my wing to hold at a safe distance out of harms way 3. engage AAA with Vihkr`s at 6-8km distance. Man or tank. I consider myself the main anti air battery in the pack when all AAA are dead i order my wingmen to engage Ground targets and let em clean up the armor while i execute 4. get close with my gun and pick off the soft targets within 2-3km (my pref is Short bursts at low ROF. This is how i do it and i find it quite effective. depending on the situation i singel target armor and designate em to my wingmen to poke em down one by one or just do the ATTACK GROUND TARGETS. i never use inner pylons, cause they contain crap weapons and only adds drag to my helo, but if you play with unlimited ammo i guess they could be used for area meltdown :P Also i have no idea if the UPK-23`s are straight forward fire or elevate after the gunsight in 2 axis, if they are please tell me and i might consider to use inner pylons with my gun :P
