kuabi Posted June 24, 2016 Posted June 24, 2016 Well done on the latest update, the FM is so much better. Should we have the choice of the two cockpits as no options are shown to choose from? 2 intel i7 6700k overclocked to 4.6, 16GB DDR4 3200MHz, Asus z170 pro gaming motherboard, Asus strix 1080, Max flight stick(modded), MFG Crosswind pedals.

Yurgon Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Should we have the choice of the two cockpits as no options are shown to choose from? Not sure I understand your question (or if it's already been answered by Pat). But you can't really choose a cockpit, you choose an airframe. :) I.e., in a mission, there's either the Sa-342M or the Sa-342L, and that choice determines which cockpit you get (along with the weapons and the sighting system available). In MP missions, there could also be both types of the Gazelle available, so you just have to choose the right slot, and that, once again, will determine the type of cockpit. :thumbup: 1
wolle Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Landing on grass seems as difficult as ever. Did this not make it into the update?

Hook47 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 I LOVE both versions of this bird, but I was REALLY enjoying the L. I strapped on my Oculus, fired up the SA342L and laid waste to a convoy. Looking down and right and seeing that big 20mm looking like it is really there is awesome Awesome and fast work, Polychop! 1

As I was referring to the menu item I used the word cockpit.

Blooddawn1942 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Unfortunately I can´t deploy either the gun nor the Rockets with the L. The Keybinding can not be set because it´s highlighted in red in the set up menu. All is set up properly, the Master Arm, the Weapons Controll Box is set to on and shows the ammount of ordnance left, the left or right pylon is activated and I have the reticle. But I can´t bind the command to actually fire the weapons. Anyone with the same problem? 1 Outgunned, outnumbered, though never outclassed!!!

Blooddawn1942 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) That´s a really fast reply! Thank You. :) That was the right sollution. Now all is working properly. The Gun really rocks! Edited June 25, 2016 by Blooddawn1942 Outgunned, outnumbered, though never outclassed!!!
Blooddawn1942 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Any chance we get an Instant Mission featuring the SA-342L? :) Outgunned, outnumbered, though never outclassed!!!
Aeons Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 thanks for the 1.5.4. OB update. takeoffs are so easy now - is this meant to be like this? also im having a problem with trimming. Trimmer works ok but not optimal, just cant trim it probably anymore. also the manual trim doesn't do hardly anything anymore for me. use to be able to trim the heli super easy into level flight 2

Trimmer works ok but not optimal, just cant trim it probably anymore. also the manual trim doesn't do hardly anything anymore for me. use to be able to trim the heli super easy into level flight Yes take off is that easy. Also as we already mentioned, trimming on the real aircraft is done through the magnetic brake. Which is very hard to do on DCS without an extended force feedback stick. So the best alternative you have is to use the trim hat. Real Gaz pilots don't use it though, they use magnetic brake extensively. 1 Consultant - Beta Tester http://www.polychop-sims.com

wolf5 Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 With TrackIR ? Launch TIR, pause it, start DCS then unpause TIR when you are in aircraft. People fly planes, pilots fly helicopters
