I wish I had the a10 but my joystick does not have enough butons to set all the controls.Its just sad.I also Dont have the space for it lmfao.I have so little space in my laptop tho..So little space i got when my laptop was here..about 200GB.Its just sad.I am thinking about getting rid of arma 3 so i can update dcs so i can actually play multyplayer.Just sad
Another fine intro Video, Wags. I swear, these are the best DCS videos out there wrt clarity, brevity, and to the point instruction. The format is stellar with a review of the buttons on EVERY video to make sure we start from the same baseline as you do. As a well-seasoned military aviator, I find them very professional. TY for taking the time to produce these.
Being able to fire Mavericks from 10-9 miles out that quickly with that kind of precision is crazy. And the helmet mounted cuing system is going to be a game changer for situational awareness, especially at night.
They already did the free cockpit update. This is one of the oldest modules in DCS, so it’s framework was becoming dated. This new A-10C II is almost an entirely new aircraft with the new systems, textures, and flight model. There’s a ton of work that goes into creating all that, so $10 is not a big ask for such a massive upgrade.
It's fantastic. Ironically, I only paid £7.50 for the original A-10C back in the days of crazy sales, so the update will cost me more than the aircraft! Given the hours of entertainment it has brought, I feel I actually owe ED some extra money on this module ;-)
Jonas McClain To be fair they are not adding little features. And for the people who own the model will be thrilled to only pay $10 for an upgrade. This will be one of the best planes for air to ground after they release the a-10 ll
I second the JHMCS upgrade thoughts.... The A-10C was my first module, and I love it, but I've been saying for a while (even before they officially announced the upgrade), that I would happily pay (actually a fair bit more then the $9.99) for just that upgrade alone. The other jets need the ground attack aspects added to theirs as well (I'm specifically wanting the Hornet to get it), but I'm stoked just for the A-10C.
@@paristo yeah, I know it's already on the roadmap for the Hornet (actually when they did the poll a few months ago asking for input on priority, I put AG JHMCS right at the top (with AG radar, which we got already)), I guess I meant more that I'm looking forward to it with the other jets, but A-10C was most important to me personally...
Just a big thank you! I cannot think of another team that supports a product with new stuff this many years after the release! So excited to try this out.
in my opinion the A-10C is the best module DCS have done and this is a very fitting upgrade. The warthog just fits so well within the DCS engine. Can't wait to get back into it!
moved the view point up so high you can't see the top row of mfd buttons in the default position... nicely done. The attention to detail is what has me coming back for more.
That's an absolutely amazing feature. Enough to get me back into the module again. It's got me wondering just how advanced the helmet-mounted features will be on the Typhoon when it's released.
She's always been my favourite airframe both in the real world and Lock On Modern Air Combat / DCS, and now she's been given more attention. Looking forward to spend another decade flying her! Thanks ED!
Got into DCS about 6 months ago. Have since spent about a grand on hotas upgrades and some modules. Got the A10C2 when I bought the game, got it half price. Learned the fa18 first and love that. Just this week started learning the hog. I’m in love with it. It’s so cool to fly, and so dangerous to ground forces. Have pre ordered the phantom also, so hoping to have that soon.
Damn that price is a steal. I purchased the A10 day one over a decade ago, I still get immense pleasure out of that module today and it still hangs on well with more modern modules. In fact it still up in my top 3. Thankyou for this, looks a stunning avionics upgrade and damn cheap as well. Honestly can’t wait to fly her, Will almost certainly get my out of my Huey and Hornet cockpit.
Very excited to see this! I'm impressed with the very friendly upgrade price, guys. Textures look very nice, can't wait to get my hands on this. The A-10C always was my favorite module, I was not expecting ED to upgrade it passed the 2005 feature set. You have done great work! Eagerly awaiting HMCS video's!
One of my friends asked me a few days ago why I'm going to buy a new VR headet (possibly HP reverb 2), and I didn't have a good anser as I haven't played with the Hog in the last a few months. Now I have a clear answer for buying a new VR stuff. Thanks for your hard work on this!
I have the HP Reverb 2 and I would warn you to wait on this headset! Yes the screens look good for the most part, wait! There are better headsets coming out! The controllers that come with them are trash, in case you want to play other VR games.

@@stevenraycopley8885 thanks for the info. No other games. Only DCS and Elite:Dangerous. Is Reverb2 is already out?
$10/$20 is a very modest fee at either bracket for prior owners. I applaud you and the Eagle Dynamics team for transitioning this model into the current generation of full-sim modules without scalping current A-10C owners, thank you. I will, however say, it is an utter travesty that the Phantom II has yet to be added to the roster (half joking). While all these fancy shmancy glass cockpits are cool, I think simulating the more hands-on 4th/5th gen aircraft is where DCS truly shines. Since those aircraft are thoroughly out of service and their documentation declassified, it must be a lot easier to get a hold of information necissary to create a module comparitively to aircraft which are in current or recent service.
Great video. I have noticed and appreciate the recent videos that includes a brief mention about the controls before proceeding to the demonstration. And it is also clear that the demonstration is well planned, which can be seen by the weapon initialization and the following flight route matches well up with a fire solution as the weapons are ready to fire. Hopefully this will be helpful to new simmers.
Ilove this bird. It is the only one which I can use in vr without any compromises. It really is a hotas monster, almost everything can be done through the warthog hotas. This module and the warthog hotas was really good choice to fly in vr with the RiftS.It seems very complicated first to understand soi spi stp and all other stuff but thanks to such awesome videos (thanks a lot man, we need more of this please!!!) it can be learned well. Long live the brrrrrt… the simmers around the globe and ED
Never clicked so fast Love your vids Matt I have a question: when i buy the A-10C 2 it will cost 80 bucks but the upgrade costs only 10 bucks soo.... when i buy the normal A-10C right now will the upgrade still cost only 10 bucks? Because then i would buy the normal A-10C and get the upgrade because that will only be 55 bucks for both ?
Buy now then upgrade is the best option. Since it is not yet released u'll already qualify for upgrade discount. On the plus side you'll get two modules to play with.
@@aishikb22 yeah i know but i am not sure if i get the 10buck upgrade when i buy the regular A-10C now because you cant get that Information anywhere :/
@@Lxcx311 yeah u'll get it obviously since the module isn't in store yet. When Supercarrier got announced it had same offer with FA-18C. I bought the FA-18C to get the discount in SC. Don't quote me on that but I'm 100% sure. Edit: It would be best to clarify with community managers like 9line or Bignewy
So what is the use case for the laser maverick? What I mean is, why would you choose the L over the H for a mission? The range seems to be same/similar, they can all track moving targets, all require decent visibility to use... The L would then just be adding the 'disadvantage' of loosing fire and fly away capability (assuming self laze), without any obvious gain to capability? It's awesome getting the new, more modern, weapons, just curious how I should be utilizing this particular one?
As an amateur watching this video, knowing basically how to fly the A10c, land it, etc... Watching you do all of these different things with all of the weaponry is just mind boggling. I remember last year I spent a few days reading the entire manual cover to cover, it was a LOT of info. I still don't know how to fire a weapon, lol.
I’ve flown the A-10 in game for too long, have an A-10 pilot for a friend IRL, if anyone needs a refresher before this beast drops, or just wants to learn the aircraft, let me know
I've been flying the in-game A-10C since 2013, but the majority of the CDU is still a little intimidating. I'd love to delve into realistic markpoint usage, TOT, and other applicable things for combat use.
Me too, I'm still trying to learn now to get all my weapons on target with the TAD and Mavs. Damn I suck..:) but I keep trying, too bad I have no one to talk to to get good. Maybe because my work schedule is so screwy I can't get on as much as I like.
10:28 to slew the targeting pod to the SPI we go china hat long aft? I thought that was to slew TGP to steerpoint. Yes, they can be the same. Or not. This is important. To slew everything to SPI, it's China long forward. Don't hate me, I am not nitpicking, but I am trying to learn this bird lately. And as time goes by, there are changes which makes it difficult. Please clarify.
now I am going to fire up the A10C and fly it some in VR just because of this. I will definently be getting this for sure. Just for the Laser mavericks. The HMCS hopefully will work correctly in VR. on the Hornet its always off just a tad.
I am curious do modern A-10‘s carry aim9x‘s that integrate with the Helmet sight? Seems like it would be a very potent deterrent for getting too close to one.
@wags does the TGPs laser range are still limited (or I'd rather say ''bugued'') to 8nm ? Because it's nice to have LMAVs... But if we can't use their advantage...
i don't want to be sarcastic but will you repair broken mfcd of current A10C before get rid of it? I just tested it and it's still unusable (contrast, luminosity)
Ok so answer me this. Im in my a10c2. Im lasing a target for a buddy. Codes are good, he drops his bomb. At some point the laser stops firing for some unknown reason. I didnt press anything im just loitering around the target area to paint it. Why does the laser turn off by itself. I have it latched as well.
I'm having lots of fun with the new laser rockets, HMCS, and new turn ability. One issue, in a "gimbal roll" situation with the original Hawg, I would do a "China Hat Aft Short" to recenter the gimbal. Now that switches the tgt pod to "Laser Search". Outside of switching the tgt pod to "standby" then back to "A2G", is there a quick way to reset ecenter\unroll the gimbal? Also, I was flying the "Hard Quickstart" in VR and it starts you at dusk. As the light fades outside, my right eyeball begins to see the cockpit with a green "night vision" glow while my left eye does not. This causes discomfort at first, followed by pain as it gets darker out. It is terrible! I've noticed that fires on enemy planes have different intensities between eyes in VR and other general issues between eyes with lighting and effects. The clouds in VR are terrible. They have little blobs that roll with your head when close to the clouds, it looks bad. They also "chunk" in a and out of existence at different ranges and angles off-center of your vision, different clouds between eyes. They also need to be fixed ASAP. Finally, white-hot or black-hot IR on the tgt pod has crazy contrast swings that black out\white out the picture if a little smoke comes into view of the tgt pod, even just a little at the edge when zoomed all the way out. You should probably adjust the quickstart to hide these bugs (change the time of day, remove clouds, and remove all the fires\smoke) until they are fixed, just something about showcasing all of your bugs to the beginners jumping into the quickstart seems like a bad idea. Overall it was definitely worth the $10 though, and these bugs will be fixed quickly right Wags?
Hello! I need some help... I just bought the A10C Warthog Tank Killer, but on the runway when I`m about to take off and even in the air my aircraft steering heavy too the left. I dont have any payloads or anything on the aircraft.... I bought the F-16 Viper, AVB88 and A10c, all the other aircraft are perfect, but the steering on the A10c is steering too the left...any good solutions?
Seriously considering crosstraining back to the Hawg. But, yeah, I'll still stay Navy with the Hornet, but... let's see, how much HD space do I have left in my human brain? Can I master two A2G aircraft?
Zing! Existing A-10C customers can upgrade for just $9.99 within the first month. That will please the customer/fan base I'm sure. Let's get started indeed.... Thanks, Wags!
Hi Matt, considering the fact that we’re getting APKWS for Warthog II does that mean it’ll be coming to other modules that support Hydra rockets? I know that the USMC have trained, and are rated for, using APKWS on their Hornets.
Wait if u have an a10 c and upgrade it to rank killer for a cheap price then if the f15E is released can existing f15c customers upgradd it to the E variant??
In the modeling of the A10 C and C II there is what appears to be a rope going across the top of the instrument panel. Why is there a rope there? What is it for? Seems odd.
Most likely it will, if you restore config for a different plane than the one you're setting up, everything that matches will be set correctly and the rest ignored. So importing settings for older block Hog should do the trick.
@@thejeff5010 Unless they broke it recently, it should work, you setup one of them and copy it to the rest, all you need to do afterwards is bind the extras like hook/wing fold on the naval planes. 90% of the work only needs to be done once though.
@@AndrewCZ47 I'm blown away, I've got like 6 aircraft with different schemes because i was trying different things. I'll have to make them all my low fidelity aircraft universal controls for sure. Thanks!
With all this new stuff I wonder what the ED haters going to complain about now, once again and it’s been like 3rd time within the patch , thank you for everything
Wags when are ww going to get to see the ALQ-184(L) so Long version, the current ingame Short version isn’t used anywhere in the USAF, all planes use the Long version
Rainbow Dash ECM is in general very classified and poorly simulated in DCS, but I’d still like to see the appropriate Jammer Pod version as used by the USAF even if it has the same exact function as the short
Excelent video Wags. Hi from Colombia. This type of launch is shoot and forget or is it mandatory to keep the plane with its laser watching and marking the target until it is destroyed?
Ordered a BRRRT hat on Etsy just to stick my TrackIR on when firing up the A-10C II. Loving it so far, pretty steep learning curve compared to the F-16, but that is really subjective.
DMS up short, TMS left long, Coolie hat this way, boat switch floating left......this reminds me why I have to do a mini-type rating on my HOTAS every time I want to get back into the Hog. Ouch. Looks great though. 9.99 will be spent.
It does sound like a lot work, but I've found the Hog to have the most intuitive and extensive HOTAS control. Somehow, it's very well layed out. But we have to see what the changes will be, as HOTAS commands are explicitly stated in the list of changes for the Tank Killer.
@@CakePrincessCelestia the mission possibilities would be so cool, it would fit in the Syria and Caucasus map really really well, especially with the a model.
Looks like I've got some more panels to do...
Hahahah. You love doing that stuff mate. We love watching your brilliance.

So happy to see the Hog getting some love, Was my first DCS module and always found myself coming back to it. Can't wait to see the HMCS In action!

probably other hogs, like how they appear via the datalink on the moving map display.
You are right about that. This feature alone will get me back in the A10. I flew that jet exclusively for like 10 years :)

I didnt press anything im just loitering around the target area to paint it. Why does the laser turn off by itself. I have it latched as well.
I'm having lots of fun with the new laser rockets, HMCS, and new turn ability. One issue, in a "gimbal roll" situation with the original Hawg, I would do a "China Hat Aft Short" to recenter the gimbal. Now that switches the tgt pod to "Laser Search". Outside of switching the tgt pod to "standby" then back to "A2G", is there a quick way to reset
ecenter\unroll the gimbal?
Also, I was flying the "Hard Quickstart" in VR and it starts you at dusk. As the light fades outside, my right eyeball begins to see the cockpit with a green "night vision" glow while my left eye does not. This causes discomfort at first, followed by pain as it gets darker out. It is terrible! I've noticed that fires on enemy planes have different intensities between eyes in VR and other general issues between eyes with lighting and effects. The clouds in VR are terrible. They have little blobs that roll with your head when close to the clouds, it looks bad. They also "chunk" in a and out of existence at different ranges and angles off-center of your vision, different clouds between eyes. They also need to be fixed ASAP.
Finally, white-hot or black-hot IR on the tgt pod has crazy contrast swings that black out\white out the picture if a little smoke comes into view of the tgt pod, even just a little at the edge when zoomed all the way out.
You should probably adjust the quickstart to hide these bugs (change the time of day, remove clouds, and remove all the fires\smoke) until they are fixed, just something about showcasing all of your bugs to the beginners jumping into the quickstart seems like a bad idea.
Overall it was definitely worth the $10 though, and these bugs will be fixed quickly right Wags?
Hello!
I need some help... I just bought the A10C Warthog Tank Killer, but on the runway when I`m about to take off and even in the air my aircraft steering heavy too the left. I dont have any payloads or anything on the aircraft....
I bought the F-16 Viper, AVB88 and A10c, all the other aircraft are perfect, but the steering on the A10c is steering too the left...any good solutions?
I am totally getting this upgrade!
Seriously considering crosstraining back to the Hawg. But, yeah, I'll still stay Navy with the Hornet, but... let's see, how much HD space do I have left in my human brain? Can I master two A2G aircraft?
You can but it’s a lot of work. I was able to master the Hawg and the Hornet just recently
Will we be able to upgrade via Steam?
yes ts $10 upgrade, currently on there
Brand new to this. So if I purchase the A-10C 2 I don't need to purchase the A-10C?
Zing! Existing A-10C customers can upgrade for just $9.99 within the first month. That will please the customer/fan base I'm sure. Let's get started indeed.... Thanks, Wags!
Hi Matt, considering the fact that we’re getting APKWS for Warthog II does that mean it’ll be coming to other modules that support Hydra rockets? I know that the USMC have trained, and are rated for, using APKWS on their Hornets.
Wait if u have an a10 c and upgrade it to rank killer for a cheap price then if the f15E is released can existing f15c customers upgradd it to the E variant??
JDAM bombs can also be launched with this system or it is exclusive to Maverick AGM65L?
I purchased the A10-C on Steam. Is it possible to get the A10-CII upgrades for $20 through Steam?
Cries in A-10A
In the modeling of the A10 C and C II there is what appears to be a rope going across the top of the instrument panel. Why is there a rope there? What is it for? Seems odd.
Hold down maps and docs.
Hi Matt, when I get this update am I then going to have two A10C? or is it going to completely replace my existing one?
Looking forward to the update. Will the A-10CII adopt existing key binds from the A-10C setup?
Most likely it will, if you restore config for a different plane than the one you're setting up, everything that matches will be set correctly and the rest ignored. So importing settings for older block Hog should do the trick.
@@AndrewCZ47 wait, excuse me? That's a thing? Are you telling me i can bind all my FC3 planes at once?
@@thejeff5010 Unless they broke it recently, it should work, you setup one of them and copy it to the rest, all you need to do afterwards is bind the extras like hook/wing fold on the naval planes. 90% of the work only needs to be done once though.
@@AndrewCZ47 I'm blown away, I've got like 6 aircraft with different schemes because i was trying different things. I'll have to make them all my low fidelity aircraft universal controls for sure. Thanks!
I DO hope that Samuel L. Jackson will return for the extra in game tutorials;)
With all this new stuff I wonder what the ED haters going to complain about now, once again and it’s been like 3rd time within the patch , thank you for everything
Why is it that the Laser Mavericks are only mounted one to a pylon on the A-10C II?
Weight, they are heavier than D and H.
Is there any news on the release date of the eurofighter typhoon and the mi24 hind?
Why didn't they call this module DCS: A-10C Thunderbolt IIII ?
@@paristo Thanks. It was actually just a little joke. :) Note the 4 "I"s. As in Thunderbolt II II.
Will you still be able to fly the a-10c as it is now, even if you buy the upgrade to the c II tank killer?
Yes
Seems small but most excited for the updated radio. Can finally have the SRS freqs I need
Outstanding news! The Hog is getting a little love.
Wags when are ww going to get to see the ALQ-184(L) so Long version, the current ingame Short version isn’t used anywhere in the USAF, all planes use the Long version
Rainbow Dash ECM is in general very classified and poorly simulated in DCS, but I’d still like to see the appropriate Jammer Pod version as used by the USAF even if it has the same exact function as the short
When is it going to be up on the modules page?
in 4 or 5 days according to the Russian interview with ED producer
Great video Matt...keep up the great work👍
Excelent video Wags. Hi from Colombia. This type of launch is shoot and forget or is it mandatory to keep the plane with its laser watching and marking the target until it is destroyed?
What's the point of using laser guidance for the maverick?
Will the Datalink be updated to interact with link 16 via AWACS?
Ordered a BRRRT hat on Etsy just to stick my TrackIR on when firing up the A-10C II. Loving it so far, pretty steep learning curve compared to the F-16, but that is really subjective.
DMS up short, TMS left long, Coolie hat this way, boat switch floating left......this reminds me why I have to do a mini-type rating on my HOTAS every time I want to get back into the Hog. Ouch.
Looks great though. 9.99 will be spent.
Agreed!! Lots of muscle memory needs dusting off, as well as some new stuff too.
It does sound like a lot work, but I've found the Hog to have the most intuitive and extensive HOTAS control. Somehow, it's very well layed out. But we have to see what the changes will be, as HOTAS commands are explicitly stated in the list of changes for the Tank Killer.
Dumb question I can only get the laser Mac screen on the left Mfd and not the right. I get the tgp on the right. What could I be doing wrong.
But wait wasnt laser mavs in original warthog too ?
No. Just EO and IR.
Full fidelity Su-25?
Oh I would love to see that
I like the froggy more than the hog.
Hell yeah, that would be magnificent.
Yeees please!
@@CakePrincessCelestia the mission possibilities would be so cool, it would fit in the Syria and Caucasus map really really well, especially with the a model.
So I take it these aren’t coming to the Hornet?
Huh. Do we still not have axis controls for the lighting knobs?
I have a problem. The Mavrick page is shown on the left screen not the right one. Please help
There will be a body pilot?
Is dcs going add some Nellis textures to this bird?
Hey, Matt, perfect video, good lesson!
having spent some time playing a10c v1, damn this helmet overlay will feel like cheating :D
Sweet, will it finally get afterburners?
Releasing to Open Beta? Or will the stable branch be updated at the end of the month?
forget it matt Wagner, will be upgrading.. so thanks for taking my money.
