Altitude Can someone tell me how to switch from ASL to AGL if there is a way?

How do I set Height of Function for CBUs?

I did check the posts and I didn't see anything.

So I just finished downloading BS2 and I go to install it and it comes up with a message say that Black Shark must be installed; okay, well it IS installed. I'm not understanding whats wrong here. Any suggestions?

I wasn't sure where to post this question; I want to get pedals, Saitek or CH. What do all of you recommend?

Is it possible to get a satellite view in mission editor?

I do have to agree with the Iraq, Astan part. It would be really cool to fly in another theater, esp. one where the A-10 is currently active.

Hey, this worked like a charm, thanks man. :smilewink:

I've been trying to get my rockets set up to fire more than one at a time, but I can't seem to get it to work. I've set the to fire in both, pairs and ripple pairs and I've entered the quantity to be fired from 2 up through 10 just see if I was doing something wrong. Yes I did select "rockets" and I did "save" at the end, but after all that they still only fire one at a time. Anyone got any ideas?

When I'm coming in on final and when I touch down, I use them and they don't seem to affect my speed at all. I mainly deploy them after I land, but they don't really slow me. I just have to use my wheel brakes.

Who said anything about an 80 degree dive?

To whom it may concern; just you let you know, I can deploy my speed brakes, but they don't actually slow me down.

Yeah, it's a capital "I". It only happens when I RTB to refuel and re-arm,

To whom it may concern; I'd just like to say from one "Hog lover" to a bunch of others, thanks for an amazing sim. DCS A-10 has got to be the most incredible flight sim. that I've ever seen. Thank you to the team that made this thing happen. You guys out did yourselves on this one. When I heard that this sim was coming out and saw screen shots and gameplay footage of it for the first time I was pumped. I fell in love with the "Hawg" when I saw it for the first time at my first airshow in 1983. Next to the P-51, the A-10 is and always will be my favorite bird. I love flying it. Great job and thanks again.

Other dedicated aircraft sims. How about other aircraft; you have all the aircraft on LO, you have the Hokum/Black Shark, & you have the Hog. So how about maybe the Apache Longbow, or a couple of the later model Hinds, or even the Mil Mi-28 Havoc. The Apache Longbow would be sweet, especially if it were as detailed as the A-10C. The AH-1Z Viper wouldn't be a bad choice for a next aircraft either. I do believe that the Longbow would get more votes though.

So can anyone tell me what happens when the weapons stats. page second & third rows turn red and you can't use your ordinance? Why does this happen and how do I correct it.

I've been noticing that when I call in CAS and SEAD support, the aircraft show up and start doing their job well enough; but the problem is that the AI pilots fire their weapons a little to far away from the target, especially the AGM-65D. I know this because I enjoy watching the missile views and every time without fail the Mavericks explode about 100 yards short of their target. I believe that this may be a glitch with the new patch, as I've never noticed this problem before. I haven't sat and watched whether this is a problem with all the AI pilots or not.

Aight that's cool. I grew up in love with the Hog and had always read and seen docs. about it; they talked about it being 450, but they didn't specify dive, or max. speed, so that's how I got confused.

Just checking, I know that the real A-10s max. speed is right at 450mph clean and on the sim. I can get around 370mph clean in level flight.

Gentlemen, is around 80% of RPM what all the rest of you are getting on your engine power, or am I doing something wrong. I can't get my engine up to 100%. Is this how the sim. is written?

So I was using the CBU-97 on a group of T-72s and I noticed that even after two passes and two bombs, they didn't die. I thought I remember the CBU-97 to be effective on them before the patch. I may be very wrong; any input would be nice.

Thanks gentlemen, I finally got it figured out.

Alright, but I've found so far that I've never been able to drop on a target unless I can see the 'azimuth steering line', which usually only appears where there is a turning point, or a waypoint.

U.S.

Ah, okay. Then this is what I need to figure out how to do.
