Yeah never turn off the ad's. I am still speechless about the theme music......

I'm speechless......

Get the IRIS Mudhen and this upgrade, it is a must. I have no FPS hit, I didn't have to remap anything. It has a learning curve though but to quote Ferris Bueller, it is so choice.

I lvoed Flanker 2.51, the Mig-29K was my favorite.

Matt how are you a Seahawks fan? Your 3000 miles away.

Wow.

I got this in my PM today from Marat, I didn't know we had an AN-2 Colt. Could someone assist him please? Dear Dave, I wuld like to ask what is the problem with An-2 Colt? When I want to land it burns and crashes. The same problem is with the 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc An-2 Colts in my group, After my taking off when they follow me on the run way they burn and crash. How to manage this problem. In fact I do not know what and how to do anything in data.inis in order to solve this problem. Could you be so kind to provide a finalized data.ini or smth of this plane to allow me to us this plane fully as I was just about to delete this plane. Many thanks & kindest regards

Anyone going to contribute? I'm going to throw in a $20

Silly silly WBS, you don't let them shoot back.....strike first, strike hard, strike often.

Pre-purchase also provides access to early pre-release Beta versions of the title. Pre-purchase DCS: Mi-8MTV2 Magnificent Eight here: http://www.digitalcombatsimulator.co...r=shop&lang=en DCS: Mi-8MTV2 Magnificent Eight is a highly realistic PC simulation of the Mi-8MTV2, a combat transport and fire support helicopter and an upgraded variant of one of the most widely produced helicopters in the world - the Russian Mi-8 (NATO reporting name ‘Hip’). Developed by Belsimtek and Eagle Dynamics, the team behind the hit title DCS: UH-1H Huey, DCS Mi-8MTV2 continues to deliver exceptional realism and immersive gameplay within the DCS World virtual battlefield. The simulation features accurate modeling of all primary aircraft systems, avionics, and proper functionality of nearly all cockpit switches and controls. Flight and other dynamics are modeled using real-time physics calculations and carefully tuned using actual Mi-8MTV2 documentation and pilots deeply involved in development and testing. The result is not only the most realistic Mi-8 reproduction on the PC, but a comprehensive helicopter model that correctly presents complex dynamic effects particular to helicopter flight, such as: autorotation, vortex ring state (VRS), translational lift, hover in and out of ground effect, and many others. You are placed in the cockpit of the Mi-8MTV2 to fly combat transport and support missions as the left pilot, right pilot or gunner. The helicopter can be armed with unguided rockets, gun pods, and on-board machine guns. In the transport role, a cargo of up to four tons can be carried internally or three tons on an external sling system to deliver and retrieve supplies in a wide variety of terrain and weather conditions. A series of single missions and a handcrafted, immersive campaign plunge you into the heat of battle in the DCS World battlefield of countless AI and a variety of player-controlled fighter and attack aircraft, helicopters, and ground units. Get online to play with or against other DCS players in a synthetic online battlefield. A quickstart guide and interactive training help you get started quickly while the comprehensive Flight Manual details the helicopter’s systems and operational procedures. A wide variety of gameplay options allows each player to tailor their difficulty level as required.

Here is a great promo video for it

Wow what a career. RIP sir.

Strato All aircraft have to be officially sanctioned by ED or they will not provide any support for them. As far as making a new plane it isn't anymore work than for SF2. However the avionics are extremely complicated to do. The DCS series will not be nearly as moddable as SF2 series. DCS and SF2 are apple and oranges in that regard. I like both but I;m leaning toward DCS more because its looks better and has the right amount of gameplay elements I like. I cannot wait for DCS F/A-18C to come out.
