It might be an FC3 thing, where most controls are common among modules. Disengaging is neither from DCS F-15C nor RL F-15 manual. There are two bindings for nose wheel steering: NWS disengage and NWS range. The former is useless for the sim since it does not lock it - quite the contrary - it allows it to swivel 360°, mostly for the ground crew towing. The latter is used to allow tighter turning during taxi.

Not_G Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 The NWS stuff has been talked about for a long time now... NWS disengage simply allows rudder input without affecting steering. The steering maneuver mode switch allows for up to 45 degrees of steering in either direction. That switch is used during most taxiing operations and disengage allows for pilots to perform flight control checks without damaging nose tires and occasionally during steering failures while taxiing. But as it stands I wouldn't count this as a bug, just be light on the pedals while tracking down the runway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henshao Posted March 11, 2023 Author Share Posted March 11, 2023 Ground Crew will not repair blown tires on their own, there must be other damage present, this I think is present on other modules as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may feel nothing on your desktop stick but you're commanding lots of Gs on the simulated aircraft. If it was high speed, quick pull and asymmetrical at that you're in for troubles. To be fair since this post i did experiments and was doing nearly 12G clean with wings not breaking up... then renembered when they broke i think i had external stores under the wings.. cant renember if drop tanks but it would explain it.. pulling even 9Gs with the external tanks hanging from the wings should be fatal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henshao Posted June 7, 2023 Author Share Posted June 7, 2023 Was wondering why my AMRAAMs were going dumb on long range shots and realized the DLZ calculation will let you shoot from beyond the 90 second AMRAAM battery life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use AMRAAMs, usually firing them from 50-40 miles and I haven't noticed any special problems with them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
