Again thanks I just completed my 1st mission (on easy) however your all 100% correct, I will slow down a little and learn about the sim. Just to show my age I started playing flight sims back on my C64, anyone remember "Apache Gunship"? I played it to death, loved in, then came "Longbow" on my 1st PC, two classic games IMHO:thumbup: I am having better luck using joystick and keyboard (keyboard for collective) and once I learn to fly this on easy game play I will move onto realistic. Again thanks guys and gals. Cheers:pilotfly:

many thanks Thanks for your friendly and helpful advice, nice to find a forum with some helpful people. :thumbup:

I have tried but I just cannot "fly" this sim, it is huge and has a steep learning curve the manual (all 383 pages) I mean who is really going to print of all that and read it all? Two problems I currently have, even using the "quick" commands the "auto pilot" functions are difficult to actually work out what you have selected and as I found out, clicking "off" all those little blue square buttons = unflyable a/c and = crash and dead. Waypoints, I can't even workout where the next one is, which button to press and well.... just too hard, sorry to sound so frustrated but I am finding this all a bit much, any advice on how to get this a/c in the air, and use auto pilot and waypoints just for starters, however apart from my struggles it is a beautiful sim, well done.:thumbup:

JB HiFi yep thats where I got mine, same price :smilewink:

Hello all, this is my 1st post since I bought the game (amazing game btw). Initial problem I have is that my joystick "SideWinder Precision 2" is not working 100%, does anyone know how I can set this up for DCS BS as it is a great joystick. Cheers:smilewink:
