Ssgt Eric Mokem Holland Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 I just wish the A-10 will be 100% functionnal, not like the BS, where you had some buttons "not working"....:( Yeah, I hope we can finally adjust the temperature in the cockpit, it tends to get quite hot in herr...And some control over my oxygen-intake would be nice too.! :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancelot Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Uhmm, the joystick looks exactly like the one of the F16. I hope we get the same multifunctional buttons so we can programm them on the hotas, like the TMS, DMS and so on on F4. Noh intention to start a "what's better sim" threat. :). Beautyful pics anyway, looking forward for this plane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we get the same multifunctional buttons so we can programm them on the hotas, like the TMS, DMS and so on on F4. That was one of the A-10C upgrades, though I imagine the actual switches are set up a little differently than in the F-16.

Triggerhappy69 Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 Ive got a bunch of pics of the A-10 HOTAS on my Skydrive.. And if someone with a good eye and a magnifyerglass could fugire out the text on pictures like this I'd be a happy camper..: I uploaded the Flight and instruments manual for the A-10A model as ZIP files there to.. Allthough the "A" model had an F-4 like stick, not like the "C". The throttle looks more or less the same though.. Here the liknk to all the files..: http://cid-58ab92e8ffe73bbb.skydrive.live.com/browse.aspx/A-10 "But (504)Brewber said they were'nt friendly.. So I took'em out.!"

GGTharos Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 (edited) The right throttle is now same as F-15E right throttle but the left throttle remains the same as in A-10A.

GGTharos Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 ... for two engines :D It's a split throttle. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Reminder: SAM = Speed Bump :D I used to play flight sims like you, but then I took a slammer to the knee - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Posted August 20, 2009 Share Posted August 20, 2009 As GGTharos said, it's an Mud Hen R/H throttle and standard A-10A L/H throttle with an F-16C stick. The stick functions I'd assume are essentially the same as the F-16, TMS Lower left "HAT", DMS Lower Right "HAT", Trim Upper White "HAT", Red Pickle Button, Two Stage Trigger for Gun and other fuctions (first stage fires TGP laser), small button on upper right of stick to control NWS on the ground and cycle hardpoints in the air and the lower white HAT controls CMDS & ECM. The functions of the buttons would be the same I'd say, it's what those buttons actually do with the avionics and weapons that'll differ if there is any difference.

Lancelot Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Learning the real MF buttons setup will be a big PITA, be assured! It surely will, but its very helpfull since you got several functions on the same button, according to the weapon, radar function, or whateever. It also helps to no having to program diferent keystrokes on diferent buttons when they are only used on certain important occations, while in the real thing are managed with the same button. For present and ex F4 sim pilots, will make it easier to learn. Even if maybe the button perform a diferent action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

71st_Mastiff Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 just to clarify I hope this isn't a separate A10 DCS engine release?

159th_Viper Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 just to clarify I hope this isn't a separate A10 DCS engine release?...... You will have to wait for clarification from the Powers-that-Be. As stated frequently in the past, all things pertaining are subject to change, hence the Absence of Concrete 'Promises'/Info. At most one can assume that subject to change, that would be the desired result (no seperate engine, but rather an incremental upgrade) etc etc etc........
