JorgeB2 Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) JNelson, I though is neeeded RIPPLE-SINGLE, Thanks for your correction. About axis, (STAB AUG always on) before engage autopilot I always have a progresive turn to left, rudder in 0, and need continuos inputs. After disengage AP, the straight flight is posible. i've tries many times and don't think is a placebo.... I feel It more stable in dving also. Maybe after AP the rudder is more perfect centered? Anyway, if it's a placebo, is a nice placebo! Edited April 13, 2021 by JorgeB2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said in range means if you broke up by 45 degrees the bomb would release, doesn't mean you have to. You can wait to be closer, this will generally be more accurate. 1 Community A-4E-C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Beautiful aircraft, outstanding service record, I hope A4 become a third-party DLC, so that A4 can have comprehensive functions. Finally, thank you for your efforts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to assign all commands from scratch again here, mate. But that just to keep myself always on the safe side, you know (i'm currently doing the same with all the other models I got, as after any main update, BTW ). After done this, I started again from the same point I left. And all seem "working", until now at least. Lucky me? Hhmmm. Sorry for having been of not so much help, I'm afraid. Good luck and with best regards. Edited April 18, 2021 by JagHond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngleOff66 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 I would like to thank everyone involved with this. I really appreciate this great mod. Thank you! I need help and also have a request for a skin. I need help installing the RCN A-4 skin. I am using 2.7. I am trying to install it in C Users DCSopenbeta Liveries. It does not show up in any section where I can choose the skin. I think that I am not using the correct name? This is the skin. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3312072/ I would appreciate any advice. Are there any skinners out there interested in the tiger stripe A-4? As per this example? https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235069167-hasegawa-148-douglas-a-4e-skyhawk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngleOff66 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Completely my fault. I did not notice the top of the lua needed filling in. I found the location of the other skins, saw how they were named, and just used the suggested name that was in in the lua. Thanks everyone for your help. As for the Tiger A-4, I've always liked schemes like that and I really think it would look awesome in the game. Hopefully someone is interested enough to do it. I would try it, but my stick figures are terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our A-4E has the J-52-P8/A as this was the engine I could find with the most detailed data. Community A-4E-C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helles Belle Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 (edited) Also, I just noticed that download has the modified instrument panel that I did. it changes the instruments to white backgrounds. I find it easier to read them that way. lf you do put them in the folder as mentioned it changes ALL A-4 instrument panels not just that download one. I have a lua that will change just the individual skin but haven’t uploaded it yet. if you don’t want the white instruments just delete them or leave them where they are.

CarbonFox Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 So I removed the A-4E mod after trying to solve a crashing issue in DCS. After finally resolving the issues, I attempted to put the A-4 mod folders back into the Saved Games Mod folder where they were before but the A-4 does not appear anymore in game. Not sure what I might be doing wrong. F/A-18C; A-10C; F-14B; Mirage 2000C; A-4E; F-16C; Flaming Cliffs 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nick_thain Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Gudday all, Just went through and remapped the A-4E-C to my new HOTAS and panel (fun but not fun), and noticed a few oddities, many of which I can live with given that development is ongoing, but thought I’d mention this one if it can be fixed/improved: - I’ve mapped all 4 of the lat/long dials, which is great, but they won’t work unless I click the dials down with my mouse. - Any chance we could get the lat/long dial ‘press’ also added as a key mapping? One more, both the Doppler radar and Nav rotary dials map to my controls just fine, but they don’t respond in cockpit when pressed on HOTAS/panel. Cheers!
