FC3 Manual improvement suggestion

[SharpeXB]

I would be an improvement in the FC3 instruction manual if it always referred to the actual cockpit controls or HOTAS button rather than just the keyboard commands.

For example it says : “Place the TDC on the radar contact with the [;], [,], [.], [/] keys and press the [Enter] key to lock the target.”

These must correspond to HOTAS buttons on the real F-15C, it would be great to know what they are.

They must be the VSD Slew Switch and a TMS switch?

This is easier to understand:

“press the weapon release button on your joystick or the [RAlt-Space] key”

DCS: A-10C is actually easier to learn despite being a full simulator because the manual and instructions are always referring to actual commands instead of just a keyboard.

Also it would be helpful to include a HOTAS diagram for the aircraft controls.
