Chuck's DCS: F/A-18C Guide


Charly_Owl

Recommended Posts

I have 24 products and all work fine except the F/18c. I can not fire any weapons with my Logitech 3D pro. Thought it was the stick but it works well with all other products . Help

 

 

I find it extremely rude when people take over an existing thread to ask about a completely unrelated problem ... please, do the right thing and first search to see if someone else has reported the same problem already and if not open your own new thread to present the situation :(

If you want to impose rules, open your private forum and stop limiting the rest of the people in the DCS forum. The only thing you do is generate discomfort and conflicts.

 

He is quite right. You are just compounding an issue. When someone else has a similar issue, they'll look in the obvious threads for a solution. Who'd think of looking in all the wrong places? He's not making up rules, they already exist, so maybe it is you who ought to create the alternate forum - you know, the one with total chaos and no rules - so good luck with that!

Mate this is simply excellent work. Professional grade! Thanks for all the time and hard work you undoubtedly put into this.

 

I didn't read the entire thread, so forgive me if this has been answered, but I'm guessing that you will be updating the manual iteratively as ED releases module updates?

On page 72 or START-UP PROCEDURE 67.

'[..] a weight of 53,222 lbs, we would set our stabilator to 19 deg nose up.[..]'

 

is the max weight for T/O (Field or Carrier) not only 51,900 lbs?

Correct! Though I think this just serves as an illustration of the calculation, no idea if planes actually ever took off overweight from the 'Cat.

 

Bit OT but I tried it out in the editor and actually couldn't get the Hornet heavy enough to break that max weight restriction with the current available weapons.

I looked at it but I did not find anything for the Target GUI version but only for scripts ...

send me link so i can download it

 

 

Thanks

 

Click THIS

 

And you can press the download button in the top right.

 

Alternatively, the way I always ensure to have the latest version, is I make a local hyperlink shortcut to the above address in my FA18 docs folder.
