Andy1966 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Hi all, I've been flying the Mustang again after a long time, and was wondering if the Deltrola or the radio compass was modeled in the sim. I seem to remember some time ago a post about spawning a Humvee with a radio beacon but I cant find it. Any help would be welcome. Thanks in advance We are Virtual Pilots, a growing International Squad of pilots, we fly Allies in WWII and Red Force in Korea and Modern combat.

Sokol1_br Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 (edited) The device is called DETROLA, search for this term. But thinks this don't work, because this receiver is not show under radios in P-51 in Mission Editor, like SCR522. Their frequency range seems: 200-400 Hz/Mc? The homing signal work or other models, e.g. Ka-50. Edited January 6, 2017 by Sokol1_br Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1966 Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 Thanks for the replies, :doh: I suppose if I spelled it right I might have found it. I've been able to set Tbilisi VOR (113.6 Mhz) into channel c in the mission editor and the homing adaptor on. (the CW- MCW switch seems to be mislabeled or something because the CW-MCW (Continuous wave- Modulated continuous wave) switch says adaptor on-off when I hold my mouse on it and morse code starts as soon as I switch it on.) Need to do more testing to see if it changes right-left like it should or is just playing the code We are Virtual Pilots, a growing International Squad of pilots, we fly Allies in WWII and Red Force in Korea and Modern combat.

Andy1966 Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 regarding the compass, is not a radio compass like I thought it was We are Virtual Pilots, a growing International Squad of pilots, we fly Allies in WWII and Red Force in Korea and Modern combat.

Vinny002 Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Hi, guys!! It would be great if the Detrola works so people won't have to keep checking the map to see where they are, and plus with the working Detrola it would make navigation easier and more realistic!! I sure hope the Detrola will work in the next DCS P-51D update. Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy1966 Posted January 21, 2017 Author Share Posted January 21, 2017 113.6 Mhz is actually Kobuliti VOR and im flying to Tbilisi which is 113.7 Mhz. I had Tbilisi sat to c channel and Koubliti set to d and can hear both We are Virtual Pilots, a growing International Squad of pilots, we fly Allies in WWII and Red Force in Korea and Modern combat.
