Ah I see they go into quite a lot of detail there. I'm no expert but a real fighter pilot (not an F-18 guy) told me it shouldn't be like that. All I know is that this horrible AA radar is putting me off doing Hornet missions grrr.

Hey folks, what's going on with the Hornet's radar lately? I haven't done any BVR in it for months till yesterday. Now BVR is an absolute chore - radar looses lock literally all the time now. I don't think I've once managed to maintain lock, crank, maneuver etc. I'm assuming this is some sort of bug? Surely can't be right? Maybe it's a bit better in STT, not sure, but RWS is total garbage. Tried various PRF settings - no effect.

Hey folks, so like everyone I've been enjoying the new clouds in DCS for the last month however never actually realised that night lighting has been improved in the 2.7 update!! So in this video I do a little reaction to trying out DCS at night for the first time. Over Vegas.

Hi all, in this one I learn how they do it for real. Any light tap of the like button highly appreciated if you've enjoyed the video

Hey folks, How come my fps is worse in MP vs SP using the exact same mission?? Is that normal? Cheers

Thanks dude

Well, this was fun

Apparently it's: Left CTRL and Tab if you want to remove it for the entire session it is L CTRL LSHFT Y

@Maverick87Shaka I think the BDA report is on the right of the screen. Have a look at the screenshot below - the orange text on the left is what I want to get rid of in MP.

Interesting. If I'm honest I just wanted to see how it would feel like to glide down without any engine thrust - pure deadstick. It seems like this is impossible to make happen though. I do find it a bit ridiculous you can't have some sort of back up to power the FCS in dual engine failure. Oh well. Thanks for the responses all

Hi guys, not sure exactly how to describe it but when you're flying about in MP there's a log of what has happened on the left hand side of the screen in orange writing - is it possible to hide this somehow? Cheers!

Also just found this discussion on the topic. Seems a bit bizarre that you are essentially left with an "unlandable" plane if you lose both engines!

@Swiftwin9s So it's supposed to kick in automatically? Coz in DCS after the engines come offline, you're very quickly left an uncontrollable plane. At least for landing anyway. @Svsmokey Good advice re-Real Housewives but I'm really keen on making this deadstick landing work

Hi folks, Can't find any info on this in either the official manual, chuck's guides or any youtube video. I want to find out if there's a way of having both engines shut down/ fail in flight and not loose the hydraulics/ FCS. Does the APU provide any power to some sort of electric driven hydraulic pumps or something of that nature so that you can maintain adequate control trying to do a deadstick landing or is there some specific procedures in the Hornet required to perform a full engine-out landing? Cheers!

Hi folks, Decided to make a video trying to replicate these two high alpha airshow crashes and see if DCS flight modelling yielded similar results. If you enjoy this one please feel free to let me know if you have any other ideas for what we can recreate and analyse using DCS besides shooting stuff up And also please consider subscribing if you think it might be up your street. Cheers!

Yeah, the lighting is just epic. I think it's a bit more yellow'y than before but everything feels a lot more realistic now!

Made a little reaction video with the new clouds. Thanks ED!! Great job!! After some bugs are sorted it will be next level!
