pcalvert Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Hi, Does anyone have (or know of) a mission just for practicing A2A refueling? Someone did something similar for landing - i.e. set a mission when you were 10 miles from the runway in the air - all lined up. Thanks :) Asus Rampage II Extreme, i7 920 @3.8Gh, 6Gb Corsair Dominator 1600hz, Msi GTX 470 Twin Frozr, Corsair 850w Mod PSU, TIR 5, HOTAS WH
Jona33 Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Here you go. Refueling.miz Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing

AVZ Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Firstly, Happy New Year to everyone! Secondly - since the ~second official patch for DCS, I have been unable to get the FAC/AWACS/TANKER to reply, not matter what impossible radio combinations I have tried etc etc. - THEY DO NOT RESPOND! As for the refueling - I am able to get the TACAN beacon to work, but the tanker does not reply to any of my attempts to have radio contact with it - including THIS very mission which was created. Does anyone know what is wrong? It used to work back in version... 1.1.0.6 - then it stopped working at some point, maybe after a patch - what should I do?

Make sure you're using the correct mic switch. At the beginning you should hear the tanker say he is on station. Always remember. I don't have a clue what I'm doing
AVZ Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 When I first loaded up the mission, I didn't change anything in the cockpit, and he said that he was on station. However, when I attempted to contact him, there was no reply. Which mic switch should I be using? I managed to get round this problem by changing the radio comms from realistic to simplified, however I would rather fly the thing as it would be done in real life. What am I doing wrong? Oh and btw, this issue has persisted after I did a clean reinstall of DCS - at least my simulator performance has increased :)
Supersheep Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 Hi! Mic forward usually (edit: if you tuned your first VHF radio, that is) . Did you cross-check the frequency? I had some surprises with this; however I think it is correct because you hear him. Freq should be in the briefing. If you cannot say clear pre-contact, you could be positioned wrong and the tanker blocks the process then. Super- The PVC Pipe Joystick Stand How to thread
AVZ Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 The frequencies have always been good. I will check the mic forward switch. As for the pre-contact stuff - I can't get past the initial contact phase, before pre-contact
AVZ Posted January 2, 2012 Posted January 2, 2012 I completely forgot about the mic knob! It all works now!
