What do you want to know? Start up, weapon usage, radios and navigation isn´t simulated very complex... Easy to learn the avionics, hard to master the air to air combat.

Here is a very good & easy guide on the F-15:

thanks guys,

Not sure if the reply i just posted has gone through, but was looking for an easy to read manual. like Chuck's mix of manual and historical facts and tid bits.

 

Will look at the suggested, but primarily interested in weapon systems and radios

Thanks for posting a link to my guide on mudspike, Rudel.

 

Nguludi, things like operating the radios in the FC3 F-15 is currently little more than powering up the jet and pressing the / key. The selection of jets in the FC3 category are more about learning how to win fights than learning how to operate the jet.

 

I'll hope you'll find the weapons system section of my guide adequate, it is basically what the entire thing is all about.

Youre welcome :) I like written Guides much more than video tutorials, since they allow to explain more abstract concepts, thats why I had your Guide among my links collection .. its a pity that most modules dont have this kind of learning Guides.

 

Anyway, thanks a lot for sharing your F-15 experience trough that guide, it really helped me a lot when I was learning FC3.

Hey I wanted to say great guide. I have referred many newcomers to it. It's helped many folks, and even showed veterans a thing or two.

Thanks for the kind words, guys.

I hope to create something like this for other modules as well at some point. Certainly the Viggen and the Hornet once I have acces to those. I've been thinking about a few others as well, such as the Mirage or the Flanker. It will be difficult to create something worthy of existence alongside Chuck's series of guides, but I can probably think of a few things.

 

I've also been thinking about writing an appendix to the F-15 guide and explain some of the more obscure features like launching AMRAAMs in VISUAL mode or things like the FLOOD mode, but those features are highly situational and rarely the best choice for any engagement.

May I suggest that since Chuck doesnt do FC3, you could write a guide for the Su-27?

 

Even tough the controls are similar to the F-15s, the tactics to use are so very different due to the optical sensor of the sukhoi and its less efective bvr missiles, I know that it would benefit a lot of the newer DCS players.

 

Another candidate could be the A-10A ... so little instructional material is available for it, and it serves as a very good interim plane while the player saves $$ to purchase the A-10C

 

Finally, the Su-25A is another little used plane that has a lot of Campaigns available and offers the challenge of flying an old school plane with no HUD, but able to use modern missiles :)

 

Anyway, just some ideas to help you unleash your creative writing ... thanks a lot for your older guide, it was really appreciated.

Cheers!

Go in close, and when you think you are too close, go in closer.
