FM, Datalink / FCR progress ? 18/05/23 was the last real addition to Apache with the Limas. FM changes seem negligible at best. Maybe others noticed changes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Trooper Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 (edited) FCR & Datalink will take a while. Personally, and I mean personally, I love the FM. Taking off into a hover is lovely and dynamic. Hovering is beautiful, a rolling take off is predictable. Rolling the airframe into a turning curve is very nice, pedal work holds the descent/climb very accurately, collective tightens the corner just lovely, with a bit of pedal compensation.... obvie ! The auto hover SCAS gets the job done.. it has a tendency to wonder a bit when activated. As long as you can predict the velocity of wonder that the BoB up scale displays and keep an eye on where it wonders then it is generally very very reliable and almost always returns to your point of auto hover activation. Pedal work in auto hover is much nicer now. I tend to like a firing position where both flanks are covered, I like a small confined firing position.

Moxica Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 I'm a little confused about the term "auto hover SCAS" Do you mean "attitude hold"? -Or is there a dedicated auto hover I've missed out on?

Were 2 more things that would occur to me ad hoc. It would be nice if there was a roadmap/overview like the F-16/F-18/Apache. What Belsimtek/ED has already implemented with the Hind and what else is possibly planned. But we are here in the Apache forum, so I don't want to go off topic. Just gotta mention Apache and we are good lol. The mods may smite thee comment. so a Manual and in cockpit pilots to make it feature complete?

Doesn't see any constructive arguments or relevant input in your posts, sorry maybe i am just an old geezer with much more patience No No, I am perfectly happy to wait. What I am asking for more is updates or goal release dates for upcoming updates. Clarity is something really missing in all of our EA modules. It's very easy to say " Just don't buy them" But how then do we support the teams.... as a customer we have the right to ask for updates on products we pay for....especially Early Access. Which is quite a flawed ideal. Old Geezer lol. Hopefully still around to see the module complete! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will need to be patient, early access can take a long time and without it we would not be able to bring these modules to you. If early access isnt your thing then I would suggest waiting until full release for future purchases. You will still be supporting us whenever you decide to buy and we are grateful for it. thanks Forum rules - DCS Crashing?

At least so people can study a bit and be prepared when it does arrive. That said, Apache is an amazing platform and the Limas are amazing following the patch before last. Thank you 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moxica Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Some updates, like the Lima's, are so significant that they make s me want to re visit old missions, and giving a new value in several ways. It suits me fine that these are coming one at the time. When the FCR is ready, I get more to be "thrilled" about, and the AH-64 will be more favouriteable. (Yes I'm making up words here..) But the long loading times we have atm does nothing but bad things for me, and I'd like to see a fix for that, even a standalone fix.. Please.
