The thing is, helicopters are different from planes. An airplane by it's nature wants to fly, and if not interfered with too strongly by unusual events or by a deliberately incompetent pilot, it will fly. A helicopter does not want to fly. It is maintained in the air by a variety of forces in opposition to each other, and if there is any disturbance in this delicate balance the helicopter stops flying; immediately and disastrously.

Nice app. Will be posting an article on it on SimHQ..

 

If I could make one suggestion (don't know if it possible or not) - would it be possible to make the check marks permanent and then add a "clear check marks" menu or something? The reason I ask is that there are times when you might need to interrupt a checklist to switch to another checklist (say to set up the weapons release settings) and then it would be nice to return to the previous checklist and still have the check marks there for the accomplished items.

Any chance of getting this for NOOK color or NOOK Tablet? NOOK does not have access to the Android Market (even though its an android....).

I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original.

These titles are listed in the chronological order I purchased them.

Idea:

Do you think it is possible to add a 'RWR' threat page with the symbology, distances of danger zone according to the threat, CMPS settings,... ?

 

Edit: BTW, great app. Thanks.

Kind of seconding what ZQuicksilverZ said above. I'm a kindle fire user (and new forum member .. Hi everyone).

I also have no access to the Google Play/Android Market (and using it from the UK no access to the kindle market either.

Is there any chance that someone could let us poor cheapo tablet owners have a copy of the apk file to install?

Hi guys,

 

for kindle users, or playbook users, or people who don't have access to the android market (or I must say the play store)...

I made a direct download of the APK (just look at my sig)

 

Feel free to distribute it if you want.

Feel free to make a donation too :music_whistling:

 

I think I will start working on a new version in some days...

Yeepee, I can't work out if that's new or I'm blind :0) But thank you either way - Looking forward to giving it a go!

 

I don't understand sorry, I am not english and there is some expression that I don't understand :).

 

Did you mean that you don't see the link in my signature ?

If it's that, look agin, I made a more understanding sig I think :)

Apologies -I meant that I wasn't sure if the Apk was a new addition or if it was in your signature already ( and I had missed it by not looking carefully enough )

I assume was a new addition so thank you very much -- I used it tonight and its excellent!

Hi again,

Me again :)

I have a suggestion for your startup check list.

 

The "Aircraft Startup preparation" list seems to include setting most things back to default/off settings. Except radio frequencies and turning on BOOST PUMPS MAIN to MAIN and BOOST PUMPS WING to WING.

 

This means that if you are in a rush (:-) and skip the "Preparation" list and jump straight to the "Aircraft Startup" list the engines do not start.

 

Would it be possible to add a reminder for the boost pumps in the "Aircraft start" list, (perhaps between APU GEN switch and ENG oper switches lines?) saying something like "Confirm boost pumps set to MAIN and WING"?

 

I hope this makes sense (I notice you already have a "Confirm" line for ENG OPER switches).

 

Its a small change but would make the Aircraft startup list stand better on its own.

 

Thanks again for making this application available... I highly recommend getting an android tablet to use alongside this game.

 

Applications like this and some of the DCS training videos on youtube make it well worthwhile. (You can also play angry birds and dream of a gau-8 add-on :)

 

Thanks again.

The checklists are the ones available at the end of the manual.

 

I don't have a lot of time at the moment, working on some other things, but if you want, I can tell you how to make a "scramble" checklist and I will make it available in the app. (scramble or rush or whatever you want).

Any chance this can be expanded to include check lists etc for other airframes? BlackShark, P51, Su25T...

 

Pretty pretty please with lots of sugar on top!

 

I would happily pay for it! As my head cant stored all the required info for the DCS World...

I am working on a new version of the application.

For now I am testing some GUI to be able to implement the DCS world series and to have something similar for android 2.1 to 4.0.x (like the action bar & co), and also to have a better UI on tablets.

 

It can't be a full time job, so it will take a while sorry...

 

The bigger change is that the new app will no longer be a free app, mainly due the time I will put in it, but also to be able to buy hardware for developing and playing DCS ;). It also cost money to put an app on markets...

 

So I will try to make my best to make the application available soon with checklists for Warthog, Black Shark, and P51, even if all will not be 100% perfect at the first release.

Hi guys,

 

Sorry I haven't do a lot of progress on the new app, but I have some changes on DCS manager and I need some testers.

 

Changelog :

 

- Cheklists are copied to the external storage (sdcard for most devices), so you can make and share your own cheklist (the primary file is main.xml).

- Checkboxes in checklists are now saved until you push the "menu" button to deselect all checkboxes for the selected checklist.

 

thanks for your help ;)

 

EDIT : With some downloads and without feedback, I have pushed the new version on the Google play store.
