First of all: Hi, i'm an old Lock On FC-Player from Serbia (Su-25/Su-25T) and now i want to give DCS a chance. After all, it was about time because the last good chopper-sim i played was Jane's Longbow 2 :)
But even after weeks of manual-study there are still things i can't figure out at all:
1. Shkval turns off by itself all the time
Every time i aim on targets i'm only capable of launching 2-3 missiles until Shkval suddenly turns off and i just don't know why. There is also no way to turn it on again. After a couple of minutes which seem like weeks for me it suddenly turns on again the same way, like it turned off.
I remember in the SU-25T that the Laser needed a littel while to cool down after 2-3 Vikhrs. Is that something similar in DCS or am i doing something wrong?
2. Unguided rockets
Do you guys set your weapon-swich for the cannon on the "fixed" position when using unguided rockets such as the S-13? I think that i read something about that, but i'm not quite sure if it's of any help to do so?
3. Nav-Mode
Now this is something which really makes me crazy!!! After taking off the Hud-Display is in normal Nav-Mode with Direction, Altitude, Speed and so on. But after i conducted my mission i just can't find a way to swith the HUD-Display back in Nav-Mode. Even if Master Arm is OFF i just don't know how to switch back in Nav Mode. I looked in the manual for i think over 100 times but i can't find the answer. Sometimes it helps to shorty turn off and on the K-401-Swich, but i don't think that's the right way :music_whistling:
Thanks :)
