Mirrors

[Rikus]

Hi, the mirror of the middel shows the pilot.

 

 

I don´t want to see me, i need to see whats at my six so it´s possible to add the option to click in the mirror and move higher to have a better visual off our six?

I don´t want to see me... and move higher

 

So, do you prefer to see Jester?

In reality, mirrors aren’t really used to see bandits, they are pretty useless for that purpose given their narrow FOV, and the constant motion of aircraft and bandit. They’re mostly used to check the position of the wings, DLC engagement, etc. Administrative items like that. I’m not sure it’d be worth the effort to make them movable. You probably wouldn’t find yourself using them any more than you do now, would be my guess.

Question is; can they, on the real airplane, be folded, like the Hornet and Eagle? If so, it would be an awesome feature. I know I can turn them 'off', but black mirrors is not quite the same as having them realistically tilted. Saves a tom of fps wile still looking alright.

Check the key bind list for the F-14, but it should be the M key.

They arent really black. I turned them off and its not badly done. It saves lotsa fps and still reflects light generally. Theyre unobtrusive that way..

The thing is IRL the mirrors were for as people said looking at the wings etc and also for in an emergency you could see the back aeater if even the ICS broke

They had a range of motion, but no, they could not be completely folded out of the way like you see in some DCS modules. They had maybe a 20 degree range of motion.
