    You completely forgot to turn on the navigation radar, leave it at standby for about 5 minutes. When the red light next to the knob goes out, you put it on land our sea as required (fields ops vs carrier ops).

    •  3 роки тому +2

      Noob question... Isn't the radar supposed to be turned on only after takeoff? Since the radar dish emits a lot of radiation and that would not be really nice for the ground crew. Thanks guys.

    • @Jacobruxo
      @Jacobruxo 3 роки тому +4

      @ usually the nav radar and the radar altimeter should be turned on before takeoff, when ground crew is not near the aircraft any more.

    This plane no longer has nose wheel steering, you have to steer by using the brakes on the left and right wheel to turn. They did this because the actual a4 does not have it.

    Dear Cap, would you happen to have the axis curve settings for this aircraft? Seems to be too "twitchy" on the roll.
    Unfortunately, I don't have a 2 foot long stick in between my legs like you do. ;)

    • @KortanaDCS
      @KortanaDCS 3 роки тому +1

      I use a curve of 25 on the A-4, the highest of any aircraft I fly in DCS. For reference, my typical curve is around 5, so you will need to scale the value to suit your tastes.

    • @CakePrincessCelestia
      @CakePrincessCelestia 3 роки тому +2

      I use a 25 curve on both pitch and roll, plus a 50 sat Y on roll which halves the maximum roll rate down to 360°/s, but gives me a lot better control. And it's still insane. Works well on the FFB2, even with the force trim which is modelled here (on some planes - like the Flankers, curves arent's that great with such a stick as the curves don't apply to the forces and the trim range isn't enough anymore then)

    • @grimreapers

      Still have to try that. Looks like it's twice as big now if I understood the description correctly. So it's even easier to tip the thing over XD - but also easier to turn in tight spaces on a flight deck.

    • @getsideways7257
      @getsideways7257 3 роки тому +1

      @@CakePrincessCelestia It looks more like the fix wasn't as much about the NWS parameters themselves after all, as it was about properly aligning the animation of the nose wheel to the factual trajectory of it. Guess I was simply feeding it very small pedal inputs (as is at all possible with TFRP with no curves), so I didn't have much problem with steering the plane around. Although, yeah, turning at speed can indeed look scary.

    CalI know when starting the a4 the throttle is pulled ALL the way back..( further that it nornaly travels...and STARTING the a4 the throttle pops out to the right and forward to start the engine. ( so far no issue) BUT, i can NOT reverse that same process when shutting down ( or even restarting) i can NOT get the throttle to go PAST ( back/left) the normal operating position.
    What am i missing? is there a LEVER..BUTTON ?? KNOB??? something i can not see...or have found in any video or manual. Please someone HELP
    The mouse can NOT do the same thing it does to bring the throttle forward from its locking position...to park it/ put it BACK in it's lock/parking position.
    he entire throttle is UN-CLICKABLE returning it to cutoff/parking position...i can Only click it OUT of the Far back ( locked/parked) position....i can NOT return it to the same place no matter what i do..where i click it...have spen HOURS trying to find/figure out how to get it to return to cutoff with no luck!
    MAYDAY..not many hairs left 🙂 need help.
