      Code Codderson Yup, and its much safer to use to help out buddy at dogfight without a risk for team killing, well at least in DCS.

    @wgoulding 6 лет назад +3

    Matt Wagner Why do you cut the maximum range of the AIM-120 and AIM-7 in half relative to their stated max ranges? Anyone with an aerospace degree could estimate the range to be far greater than 20 miles using a rough approximation of the propellant volume and specific impulse, as well as an approximate coefficient of drag. Having such short ranges totally changes the nature of BVR combat!

    Hello, in minute 4 and 17 seconds, after pressing the TDS button (enter), which key do you press to lock the Target?? thanks in advance

  • @Pekins
    @Pekins 4 года назад

    I'm having issues, when I'm scanning in RWS 4B 140 angle, and then I place the TDC above the target and lock it, it will only hold the lock for like 3 seconds, not even. It seems like I'm not getting STT.

    • @MattWagner
      @MattWagner  4 года назад

      It can depend on many factors that include range, aspect angle, target radar cross section, look dow angle, etc. Thanks

    Can't seem to find anything to bind the TDC slew (left/right up/down)... For ex I want to use my grey castle hat where the thumb rests on the stick for TDC slew, only option I can find is under the "axis" settings and it says it's for mouse use only.... Any help?

  • @Mohkin-demon
    @Mohkin-demon 6 лет назад +1

    Can anyone help me ? is there something that can be done as I am not able to watch a replay of any missions that I do or even when complete a mission or successfully land on a AIRCRAFT CARRIER??? is there some way to fix that? It used to allow me to watch playback or watch track as it's called. I know that the training section doesn't allow you to replay it but for some strange reason my rig doesn't allow me to watch any play back as of about a week ago .I 've updated DCS and used the repair DCS world nothing has worked so far . I have a Dell 9010 Mini Tower i7 3770 3.4 ghz 16 gb 240 ssd 1 t hdd win 10 2 gb video card Amd rX 460. Help . I guess I should contact DCS world perhaps they can look into this issue.

  • @hba8103
    @hba8103 6 лет назад

    Question on scan cone. The altitudes of the search reported are only valid at the FULL range being selected, correct? In other words if I'm scanning out to 60 miles with reported altitude search from Angels 6 to 0.....I can only really detect from 6 to 0 at the full 60 mile distance? If I were at angels 10 and a bogey was at angels 2, 7 miles off my nose and hot......I would not be able to see him on radar, correct? He would essentially be under the cone of my scan (assuming level flight of course).

    Will it be possible to add later the AGM-158B JASSM (ER) at least?
    Or other compatible conventional non nuclear weapons for the hornet, like the European weapons, AIM-132 or Taurus missile, etc?
    And of course apart for the already existing planned ones.
    Or is there's something that restrict ED from doing any other weapons?

    • @MattesSPunkt
      @MattesSPunkt 6 лет назад

      Antony Leung there are no plans to implement those weapons. Check this link for the planned systems. They won't all be there for early access. forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=3285514&postcount=13

    I've been watching videos, reading the manual, and testing out in game but im still stumped on how to switch from AIM-9's to 7's. In Wagz tutorial video :42, seems like he clicks something on his joystick, turns out it's a default function on the Warthog Thrustmer Joystick. I have the Thrustmaster T-16000M and searched relentlessly to find the key binding command. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Russian developers are in Thailand now, they are already spending money they have gathered during presale purchase campaign! Now you will see infinite delays as they want to monetize presale campaign as long as they can, until everybody understans it's a fake!
