The Basic HUD is nearly complete for both NAV and VSTOL modes. Further work must wait until the EFM is more advanced since the HUD requires certain parameters that must be fed by the EFM.

VSTOL mode: This mode is used when most of the lift is generated by the engines instead of the wings. It provides very useful data like engine RPM, Jet Tail Pipe Temperature, nozzle orientation and flaps deployment. All this is very important information that you need to stay alive while in jet borne operations. Remember, this aircraft is actively trying to kill you.

NAV mode: Default mode used for non combat flying.

Flaps are automatic so you do not have a flap handle but a switch that changes flaps operation:
CRUISE - Basically for flying. Flaps remain at a fixed position
AUTO - A compromise between CRUISE and STOL. Flaps move depending on aircraft configuration.
STOL - The main mode for jet borne operation (VSTOL). With the flaps in VSTOL mode, they move automatically based on nozzle orientation. (check the VSTOL HUD).

I feel this way about several aircraft at times.

Day 1 purchase indeed. This is one of my dream DCS birds. Thanks for sharing more of your production process with us Zeus67. It is really appreciated very much I know by all.

is it still WIP or why is the FPM always so high up that you get a negative aoa?

It is not even an Alpha. Development has just started. Everything is just basic or placeholder.

After initial slight disappointment over the specific version (GR7 is just my favouritest thing ever) I'm SO in now. I'm impressed.
