Starting to wonder if my order got stuck under a bridge in Maryland. LOL (Maybe that joke is too soon) Still waiting, though.

OK, so I found that the holdup on my order is probably the vinyls. I ordered mine on day 1 and still don't have it yet. I'm in a holding pattern and patiently waiting.

Was wondering if someone from the US can tell me what shipping method was used? I am still waiting patiently for vinyls and T shirt. I'm in AR if that makes a difference. Thanks in advance, Mike

Same here. I'm all giddy with excitement. lol Just need a user manual now. Does this mean we are customers #1 and #2?

The key hasn't been released yet. it is only pre order. Their key is only good on standalone. They have an FAQ page on the Heatblur website that says Steam version is only going to be available on Steam, however it can be converted to standalone. I stand corrected. I just received the email with the key. My key is below this statement: "Please note that any product key for the DCS: F-4 Phantom module will only be redeemable at the time of Early Access launch. Customers will be notified by email when activation is ready."

I didn't waste any time. They "TOOK MY MONEY!!"

I found on GitHub the tube is 29mm ID x 32mm OD. Only thing I can't find is the length. Anyone that can help me out? It'd be much appreciated.

Can you send me a link to the ones for the ODU? I believe they are supposed to be dot matrix 5 x 7 or something like that.

For the #2 two digit screens, I was looking at some 2 digit 7 segment LCD's. I'm re-thinking that idea because they won't display alphabetic characters. For the top display #1, I was trying to find a 16 x 1 lcd, but unable to find one. my second choice was a 16 x 2 lcd. I haven't looked for the lcd's for the ones located at #3.

Sorry for the late reply. Life getting in the way. First, Thank you guys for the quick response. I have some Arduino Pro Micro boards on hand that I was going to use. That's why I asked. I did a little more digging and found I could use 1N4148 diodes. It wasn't real easy to find. Hope this helps others out.

I have a question on the button matrix. I'm really new to making something like this. My question is are diodes required when wiring up the button matrix to prevent ghosting? If so, what type of diodes should I use? What value should they be? I also remember seeing somewhere that resisters could be used, but I wouldn't know what value resisters to use either. I currently have all of my printing done except for the knobs, which I'll print after my electronics arrive this weekend. I'm really looking forward to getting this up and running.

I was wondering if anyone had any info on whether or not the NS430 (Garmin mod) was now compatible with Vaicom PRO or not. I found a post dating back to 05 May 2019 from @Hollywood-315 where he is replying to @emc: "@emc The Garmin can do some weird stuff with radio devices and is not on the compatibility list. That said, it actually does work most of the time. First disable Garmin and make sure VAICOM PRO works OK. Then enable the Garmin and if everything seems to work, great. Just remember at the slightest sign of trouble that it's not compatible." I have had issues with it in the past and have not used the NS430 for that reason. Can someone let me know if this has changed or if it's still incompatible? If it is still incompatible, can it be added to the list of items to be worked on?

No problem. I hope it can save others some time and headaches. I was looking through the forums for a couple of days for a solution. LoL

OK, so I'm an idiot for racking my brain for so long on this one. I had someone on Discord told me to right click on desktop - Display Settings - change Display Scaling to 100%. That fixed the issue. Quick note: I usually keep my Display Scaling to 125% because of the old eyeballs in my head.

I'm having issues with the display on the TEST screen. Not sure how to fix this problem. I have looked on the WW site and was unable to find anything on this. Any ideas on how to fix this? It's like the screen won't size properly. (notice the rh side of the screenshot) null

That's just the quick start guide. I can't wait to see the full manual. lol

That looks awesome. It took me almost a full day to figure out how to do a repaint of my F86-F Sabre. And I had to use some of the existing elements to complete it, so I know what you mean about not wanting to redistribute the files.

There is a mission editor. You could create some basic missions to get familiar with the flight characteristics and learn the weapons and targeting systems. Doesn't have to be anything fancy. That would keep you plenty busy until the official campains and training missions come out. That's what I usually do. Just throwing it out there as an option. As a suggestion, just open the mission editor and drop an Apache at an airfield (ie, in the Marianas Islands) and practice cold start, take off, navigation, and landing. You could do some island hopping. Doesn't take much effort to accomplish that.

I don't have a link to it right now, but Casmo put out a youtube video yesterday on his keybinds. It kinda helps and makes things a little clearer.

After reading the message in the mini update, I just have one question, Which one on the tarmac is mine? LOL I'm looking forward to the release. It'll be ready when it's ready.

Fresh milk unless you drop the load. Then it's fresh grass fed beef. LOL

Gotta love this one. Two weeks from everywhere. LOL

I have a question. Not sure if it's been asked, but is this compatible and will it work with Vaicom Pro?

This is my first attempt at a skin based off a Revell model box art.
