AbortedMan Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 You see what God just did to me, man? Contacted ED via a ticket and they said "too bad" (in so many ways). Anyway, heading home from work to get my first flight in. Any Viggen tips for a new guy?
Rudel_chw Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Its a pity ... thats why I always purchase during sales, or at pre-releases ... had to wait 4 months to get the F-5 but I saved a bit of $$$ and on the meantime played the modules I already had :) Regarding the Viggen, this is the best Tutorial series that I've seen for it: Anyway, in my opinion its one of the best planes available on DCS, you will not regret its purchase ... I've had so much fun with it :) Best regards For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
Welnio Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 (edited) Too bad mate but its a great aircraft, you will enjoy it Starting engine: - Dont forget insert the cartridge - Enter the code 9099 > LS Take-off: - 3 Grades of trim up - At least 250km/hr to rotate - Dont touch the rudder... just very very very small corrections In Flight: - Speed is life... dont get below of 400km/h Landing: - Speed not lower than 300 km/hrs for first landing, after that you will find the right speed for the approach and landing - Dont forget the thrust reverse (very useful but not necesary) - Dont touch the rudder... just very small corrections Any more info? read the official manual (isnt complete), the DCS Guide made by Chuck and the checklist made by Apache600 Good Luck!

Bad Idea Hat Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 The Viggen rudder is less for yaw, and more for "randomize!" I think someone said that's a feature of delta-winged aircraft.
Apache600 Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 Money well spent, sale or not, in my opinion! And if it makes you feel any better, just think of it this way ... you wanted to support them a little more, monetarily, because it's that good of a module :P As for getting yourself started in this plane, I suggest Chuck's tutorials, xxJohnxx's YouTube videos (though there are other good ones out there too) and then also my checklist here: (of course I have to support my own stuff too) https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=183759 - Apache600 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] The Museum Relic Campaign: --> http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=164322 Community Missions (SP & MP) --> https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=205546

I feel your pain, it happens to me all the time, not just in DCS. :D Anyway, Viggen is well worth the money, sale or not.
serolrom Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 For the rudder, I apply quite a strong curve in the axis adjustment. Then on the runway y apply very, very soft pressure and I do just fine during take off.
TOViper Posted April 1, 2017 Posted April 1, 2017 .... Any Viggen tips for a new guy? My tip: Enjoy this aircraft in depth, and find the soul it has built in.

ridgeback68 Posted April 2, 2017 Posted April 2, 2017 Look on the bright side. As well as the Viggen being the most fun I've had with clothes on for a while, you'll get ED bonus points to use on another module. You don't get the points when you buy stuff on special.

Wayc00lio Posted April 12, 2017 Posted April 12, 2017 Too bad indeed. I recently bought the Normandy map thinking it came with the assets pack, but I didn't see the Normandy map + assets pack bundle.

Rogue Trooper Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Yep, money well spent regardless of sale or not. The Viggen is for me the best jet in DCS. HP G2 Reverb (Needs upgrading), Windows 10 VR settings: IPD is 64.5mm, High image quality, G2 reset to 60Hz refresh rate. set to OpenXR, but Open XR tool kit disabled. DCS: Pixel Density 1.0, Forced IPD at 55 (perceived world size), DLSS setting is quality at 1.0. VR Driver system: I9-9900KS 5Ghz CPU. XI Hero motherboard and RTX 3090 graphics card, 64 gigs Ram, No OC... Everything needs upgrading in this system!. Vaicom user and what a superb freebie it is! Virpil Mongoose T50M3 base & Mongoose CM2 Grip (not set for dead stick), Virpil TCS collective with counterbalance kit (woof woof). Virpil Apache Grip (OMG). MFG pedals with damper upgrade. Total controls Apache MPDs set to virtual Reality height. Simshaker Jet Pro vibration seat.. Uses data from DCS not sound... goodbye VRS.
p1t1o Posted April 13, 2017 Posted April 13, 2017 Too bad indeed. I recently bought the Normandy map thinking it came with the assets pack, but I didn't see the Normandy map + assets pack bundle. If I were to write a ticket, I'm guessing my response would be - TOO BAD!! Its worth typing a few lines though. You never know who might answer it. I did the same thing with something on steam and wrote a refund ticket and they let me re-buy it at the offer price. Not saying your chances are high though :( But its always worth a shot. My housemate got his credit card interest dropped from 26%-ish to like 5% by ringing up and being like "This interest is too dang high!" no I mean literally he was like "Please lower my interest." and they did!!!
