  1. Thank you Hello, The video is the answer for me! Thanks for the help Cheers, Ron Sagel
  2. Hello, Could someone please explain what TRIM is and how you use it? My joystick maps it to a button and when I press it during my training flight (gunnery range mission) the vehicle goes "wild". I go into a climb or something I don't want to happen. I have a MS Sidewinder Precision 2 joystick. I saw a little response to "false" the ForceFeedback. I tries this but I probably don't know what to expect! Also, a small explaination of how the Autopilot works would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Cheers, Ron Sagel
  3. Hello, With all of your help(s) I am in the air. Cannon attack is fine. However, I am really lost on missle attack steps. I have watched the training several times and am still at sea here! Assuming I'm in the target practice mission (no threat here), what are the basic steps to fire a missle at a target? I get lost here after I: Turn On Master Arm Turn On LAser S/B Select Outside (Y) Select Ground Target Select Missle to Launch Now I'm lost!!!! Any help here would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Ron Sagel
  4. Hello, I want to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your help in getting me into the air with this sim! I made my first complete flight around the gunnery range and returned to land OK (a little heavy but OK). I have been flight simming for a long time and this is by far the most complex sim I have ever used. I am not a real pilot but going from cold and dark - to flight - to landing - to shut down in this sim seems really close to what the real world situation must be. The help I get from this forum is really great. No "read the manual" comments - all answers take your time and I really appreciate it! Someday, maybe I can be of help to someone - but for now, it is practice, practice, practice. Thanks again, Cheers, Ron Sagel
  5. Thanks, Hello, Thank you!!! I have a helo sim in FSX (DODOSIM) and it is very realistic. However, they only have one rotor. I'll watch the speed now. Cheers, Ron Sagel
  6. Hello, OK, I can now startup fine and get into the air. I can handle weapons as a beginner. I selected the Target Range Flight for my first test. As I am flying along to the target area (following the map) I hear a load bang and I am spinning out of control. I crash! What has happened here? Tried it twice - same result. (Am I shot?) I tried the first mission in the Campaign area and the same result!!! Thanks, Ron Sagel
  7. Hello, With all of your help, I am now flying my Black Shark! Fantastic sim. One more question please - I use a Saitek X52 joystick. What buttons do I need to set up to do the following: 1. Select the weapon type - like cannon, missles, etc. Is there a button that cycles thru these? 2. Fire the weapon(s) 3. Lock/Unlock a target any other functions I am missing? Sorry to bother here but the training videos go too fast and are not easy to follow in this area. Thats again and cheers, Ron Sagel
  8. Thanks for the great support! This is the best forum I have ever been in! Thanks again, Ron Sagel
  9. Hello, I have been flight simming a long time but this is the most intense sim I have ever used! I am using a Saitek X52 stick with their Throttle. I have changed nothing in the sim. When I start say an "instant action" my throttle works fine. However, if I start the target practice mission, the throttle unit has no affect. I have to use the +/- keys for the throttle. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks, Ron Sagel
  10. Thanks , That did not work. The only solution was to uninstall the entire program and reinstall it from scratch. I don't have a clue what happened but all is OK for now. Cheers, Ron Sagel
  11. Hello, I'll try to explain this as best as I can: 1. Running XP - up to date 2. Program starts fine 3. Instant Action works fine However, After I have selected a mission, I can never get the program from reloading it after I stop the program. I selected the first mission and flew it for a while. I stopped it and closed the program normally. When I restart the program at a later time, the old mission is loaded but it is "frozen". No keys work and I cannot get out of the program. I use the task manager to close out the program and restart my computer. I can not select any training either. No matter what I select, it tries to go to that "old mission" and freezes up the program. No crash file available. Any ideas here? Thanks, Ron Sagel
  12. Thanks and one more question please Thank you, One more question - how do I get the internal cockpit display to not "rotate" when the mouse is used? I want to be able to push the buttons with the mouse. Right now, the mouse moves the screen around. Thanks again, Ron Sagel
  13. Thank you Hello, Thank you for the help! Ron Sagel
  14. Hello, Long time flight simmer - New to this sim. How do I set up one mission so that it starts up with a cold and dark system? I would like to practice/learn how to start the a/c. Thanks in advance, Ron Sagel :)
