Here is the thing. there is no TDC when cycling between CCIP and CCRP modes. I will recheck tonight and report again. I will also recheck controls and the O button.

I can get the hud to show the CCRP symbology. I always hit pickle and everything drops off. What should be used to ground designate? The gun cross?

Thing is, its trainer prop. First of its kind here. So, I want to know what to expect from her. If by basic systems you mean its the six packs, yes. I'd like to have an incremental failure on basis of flight hours.

I wouldnt think about it happening anymore.

Thanks but I would rather ED manuals since I can study her better and recognise what and what is not modeled.

here is one better.. it does record but the audio and video are not in sync. Also some flickering at the right edge of my screen occurs around a strobe of 10 pixels top to bottom, right edge of screen. The real benefit is that it records very small file size compared to fraps.

Smallwoods book begs to differ. In Gulf I the A-10s and others were up against an entire Soviet armada. SA-2,3 all the way to SA-15,16,19... Your assumption that loiter time is connected to clearing out SAMs is wrong. Wild Weasels exist for that job. Its A-10s pilot standard to fly as low as 100 feet and navigate with markups on maps through rivers, valleys, forest clearings and even roads. They simply fly this way because its the only way to defeat a rich, high threat environment. I'm an armchair general so dont take me seriously. I parrot what I read in books.

seriously man? after all those years messing our balls over the hornet? :....)

I think he was alerted to drop flares by a ground unit or a wingman. His response was very late. Besides, the straight flying routine... It just doesnt make any sense. Besides all this if the missile tracked his afterburner, its not launch warned in his cockpit. Must have been a Strela or Igla. Signed, The Undrafted, Unqualified, DCS Armchair Wing Commander.

These missions are either long range CAS or interdiction looking for a needle in a haystack. I am thinking about creating a long campaign just for these long flying hours. I cant say what is it about but its meant to simulate Kosovo war. I read and currently re-reading a few A-10 books to get ideas about such missions.

With F10 map with map only, this should be interesting.

Will it be possible to import your old logbook? 100 hours of total flying are not easy to come by you know..

As above. My longest was 8 hours under 3 AARs at the end of which, my hands where shaking and my butt was numb like hell. Any good missions where you stay up that long or even more? I'm at 100 hours total flying time but certainly would like to stay up during a veeery long mission.

Absolutely. I have a working tmwh but if I would go back in time, I'd get VKB or VirPil.

I certainly hope it gets fixed soon.

I am glad you do. The engine sounds great too.

I dont know. I mean G forces affect maneuvering not arrests. At least I think so.

Much better than older sounds especially the bullet casing pile up :) :thumbup:

in most vids I see of carrier landings, the pilot usually scoots forward when the plane catches the wire. Can we get this effect in DCS?

Flight model is so good, there is heavy reliance on trimming and fuel management and electricals, which is also good systems modeling. Shes a handful and very challenging in flight and and during fighting. No I dont think there is system redundancy if you lose a half wing for example, or worse, the elevators, if you compare it to A-10C. you will plop down uncontrollably. IMC not too much as you only have TACAN which can be good for a fix if you use F-10 and lines method for dead reckoning navigation. No there is no TAD, but kneeboard is there for VFR. A-A, it was designed to fight on par generation fighters, the most notable of which, is the Mig-21. Its not an air superiority fighter like the F-15C, but it has its tricks and usually its WVR and dogfighting you fight use mostly. Countermeasures are very low quantity but also an important factor is your visualisation of threat and your response to a launcher. It does have an advanced RWR and I believe in Nevada, somebody created a dedicated and supposedly dynamic, Wild Weasel training campaign. Very limited A-G role but yes you have dive bombing charts and sleds as well as videos. It just burns fuel too quickly though imho. I am not surprised at all about that just stating.

Your cursor is controlled by an axis. Set 30-100-30-0 top down to get A-10C TGP slew rate in the axis. For trimming, I dont see the issue. Perhaps can you post a voiced video explaining the problem and how your hardware looks like? how you press it?

The antiship missiles are in AJS-37 Viggen. Not FC3 modules.

I would like to start reading ED :thumbup:

uncheck hear like helmet in sound options.
