Hey Guys , nice, of you to offer a competition, and congrats to the lucky pilots :)

The autopilot n the Ka-50 is extremely useful. Flying the UH-1H , then transitionng to the Ka-50 is jaw-droping awesome. The UH-1H is a perfect trainer. I can land the Ka-50 much more easily, hover stable etc etc. Also, my general flight skills in the Su-25 has drastically improved. Previously my gunzo straving attacks was terrible. The UH-1H taught me to fly straight, smooth, level flight. In figures; 1. Pre- UH-1 --> Su-25T 70% of my rockets missed, 90% gunzo straving missed, 95% bombs dropped missed. 2. Post UH-1 --> Su-25T (applied to the Su-25), EXACT the opposite!! 90% gunzo attacks = kill, 90% bombs dead on target, 90% rocket attacks S-8OFP) are 90% PK. 3. Post UH-1 --> Ka-50 landing, hovering training.. <=10 minutes!!! Flight trainingtime: * UH-1H hovertrainging, gunzo <>12 hours. * SU-25(T) straving attacks traingintime <>8 hours. The UH-1H is a hell of a good trainer for both fixed wing and helo's. Now flying the Ka-50 with autopilot stabilzation = BLISS!! :smartass:

Flying with the 159th Aviation Regiment, amongst others. 159th Regiment Squad skin Another 159th Regiment Squad skin

+1 Gotta collect all DCS modules.

I want realism. Russians speaking russian, no english. This takes about 30 seconds.

Also, the target range is important. Either too far or too closeby to the target the artillery wont fire.

I cant find the keypress to activate the XM60.

Exactly, the Su-25 in DCSW doesnt have a HUD.

Answer: ZSU-23-4, Sa-9 and SA-13. Since early LOFC-days it was said that placing a Dog Ear in a group with ZSU-23-4 , SA-9, SA-13 would extend the effectviness of those systems. I never tested it.

Enemy in DogEar detectionzone You should be able to achieve this using scripting in the mission editor. HOWTO; 1. Place a Dog Ear radar. 2. Create a triggerzone 'Enemy in DogEar detectionzone' the circlesize centered of the dogear radar detection area. 3. Place a TOR close to the edge of the triggerzone. 4. Set the Tor's startup option to explicitly radar=off. 5. Create a reapeating/once off trigger -- . -- When a hostile aircraft enters the detectionradar, activate the Tor' radar. -- When no hostiles, or hostile leave the DogEar detectionzone, disable Tor´radar. Notes; * Above wasnt tested, but suppose it could work. * I figure since about DCS 1.25 above should be possible, espcially the radar on/off is crucial to this effect.

Do yoursef a favour. Invest in a SSD-drive >=120Gb. It makes one hell HELL of a difference!!

Excellent!! such as --> http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1737667&postcount=109 A cockpt for the masses. Would be cool if he can offer a Ka-50, UH1 etc etc.

IKEA's solution of self assembling a cupboard/bed at home is ideal for saving money, plus they provide all materials and tols. Just assemble at home. I'd like a full blown A-10C cockpit, but lack the tech skills to research & build it. What I already have: * 3x 23"screens, 2x Thrustmaster MFDs, Saitek rudder paddels, HOTAS Warthog, TrackIR5. What I need: * A complete parts list for a full blown realistic A-10C cockpit. * The materials needed to construct it. * Step-by-step constructing guide, with with pictures. Many ppl have built cockpits, its a wasted effort to reinvent the wheel..

Same here. After spending >=5 hours I can just-about chieve a stable hover at <>10 feet. How to hover; Imagine sitting in a rocking chair. Your body movement determines amount of swivel. To 'hover' you need counterforce. When moving backwards, you must counter by giving wait to the exact opposite direction(front). To much and you will move to the front. As when you achieve a stable hover its important to VERY VERY slighty correct the forces. Applying the rocking chair principle. Sideslip can be counteracted the same way, or using the foot pedals swivel the heli into the direction of movment, then rocking chair counter the movement. VOILA!!! Hovering :smilewink: Tips: 1. Adjust your HOTAS sensitivitys 2. Practise practise, and pracitse more. Coming from the Ka-50 've found the UH-1H a real challenge. The Ka-50 is rock solid stable. Flys nearly like a fixed wing.

I'd suggest voting on reported bugs.\ New reported user bugs can be voted in, or out, or rejected. That could also save on duplicate bug submissions.

According to current projections the F-35A is trending to $57,778 which falls short of the goal. http://www.kicktraq.com/projects/683368164/f-35a-lightning-ii-by-kinney-interactive/

As hard-core ED support valid questions. Loadsa Kickstarter projects succesfully get funded, without funders knowing the team members. Some projects do post team members bio's. His funding goal of $74k, in my opinion rather small, but large compared to DCS: MiG-21. Most projects such as DCS: Hawk, DCS: T2 Buckey has been going forever, >=1 year and no final release is sight. KI is overly ambitious with hi beta date of Jul-14. I doubt 74k is enough for assembling experienced project team. Could be wrong though. Me thinks a final release would be >=Dec-2014. Theoretically, the F-35A-crowd in my view be able to raise $200k.

1.2.4.14196.166 works fine Same here, loads <>15 seconds longer on my SSD. I have all the DCS expansions, and loadsa mods installed. Patch 1.2.4.14196.166 * no crashes. * works fine for me :thumbup:

Cool, like the slomotioned action, and soundtrack supported with the hili background noise. Very well done.

Could be the Su-27SM, as seen in this WIP-video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAGegPjWjtk

How about the 3-may update? :smilewink:

Radio Mayak also works in DCS: UH-1H :)

This way one could have TARS-like funcitonality in the sim itself.

SOLVED. I assigned the FAC role to a BLUE unit :doh:.

Help. No JTAC menu avilable. When I set the SPU-9 on VHF-1, then use the communications menu, no option appears. Yes, I did install the JTAC V1.3 files into the appropriate locations. Any ideas..?
