To the user asking how to out turn the 109 in the Yak, the answer is always flaps, which can be deployed at below 220kph. However if he's pouncing on you from a higher altitude, he *will* have more energy and he will use it to just high yoyo whenever you try and out turn him.
The only real way to fight well against 109s is fly with a wingman. Because if you're popping the flaps and turning to try and keep his guns off you there is NO WAY you are going to magic your way onto his six from such a low energy state unless he is absolutely terrible.
A wingman is the only real way to reliably clear your six, but that requires teamwork, coordination, and above all - both players to realise that relentlesy pursuing a kill for the sake of your steak is not how you keep each other alive.

Brody Parker
if there a way to check the current """ops""" ?
Brandon Johnson
Is there a steamgroup for the lads? Something without all the furries?
Old maps that have been retired have been revived with improvements to match the current maps. These are official maps so regular servers can add them to their rotations.

One that we'll actually use to announce ops and shit?

Yes, we must remove the furry menace.
Cameron Scott
happy new year senpai
Brandon Anderson
What a dumb idea, just announce ops in the tread
Oh wait, we don't play """ops""", we do however always play games. If people want to play, they should just turn up.

Most of them were barely on topic shitposts. Suck it up weeb.
It's intertial navigation right - so it changes numbers based on some sort of gyroscopic movements and pitot readings right?
But the thing where he pulls up, inverts and pulls down to the left - Is that because he put in an attack setting to attack turning to the left or is he turning to the left because there is a drift in the system and he doesnt know exactly where the target is and the inverting is so you can see???
Kevin Edwards
No I think it relies entirely on a specialised CADC. I have no idea how it works as a navigation system and I wouldn'the be too surprised if you had to update it's position in flight every so often. Perhaps using radar fixes?

So post planes and not anime then?
It's not a hard concept to grasp

Would it be worth it grabbing the F15-C now? I'm a total beginner but it's on sale (Although it's normally only 7 pounds anyways)
Tyler Ross
Grab the FC3 buying the planes separately is just stupid.
Andrew Thompson
>encouraging people to play FC3 Aaaand more cancer is created
Robert Ortiz
>post anime >in a non anime board
hmmm
Cameron Young
But none of those planes are fully simulated right? I kinda want a jet plane that's fully simulated to see how fun it is
Chase Perry
Yeah but the F-15C isn't clickable. All the FC3 planes sold separately are just the FC3 planes.
Christian Peterson
What recommend the war thunder tier Mirage instead?
But neither is the f-15 you dolt.
only DCS: *insert aircraft name* are

What's the best fully clickable plen to go for in that case? Ideally A-A
Mason Collins
Mirage even when its flight model and damage model is a bit finicky.
Zachary Green
F-5 and Mig-21.
F-86 and mig-15.
Anything other than the mirage.
Jose Murphy
MiG-21
It's insanely fun.
Ethan Phillips
Go for the Mirage and don't listen to the other 2 idiots telling you to take 3rd gen shit or bellow as there are almost no servers for them and 4th gen is the most played gen in DCS. Don't even bother with WW2.
Aiden Green
I'll get whatever is cheapest out of the suggested options
Also this might not be the thread for this but how well is PR suited for flying jets/helis with a stick? I'm not looking for a better experience than with the mouse+keyboard, but I want to know if it's even possible to fly around before I download the enormous update on my shit connection
Julian Diaz
The MiG is viable if you arent a shitter
Cooper Robinson
Just a fair warning, DCS: >has network lag out the ass >requires an ssd >crashes a lot >has no proper mp >has retarded ai >has the worst missile simulation of any game i've seen >is far from being realistic
People will downvote me for saying this but it is the truth. Just thought I'd let you know.
Oliver Evans
Look into BMS Falcon. It's free and the only clickable simulator of a 4th generation fighter. Real pain in the ass to download and setup though.
Benjamin Stewart
I am with you brother and you didn't even count one third of the problems DCS has but the only thing DCS has going is its easily accessible. And a fair number of planes even though most of them are broken.
Nothing beats flying Open Conflict with this loadout.

Typical DCS players
Nathan Clark
These are the only fulfilling DCS planes: - MiG-21bis - A-10C (barely) - F/A-18C (probably, when it's released next century)
Anything else is either arcadey meme or gimicky useless meme. Prove me wrong.
Noah Williams
F-5?
Brayden Lee
A-10C above all until the F/A-18C comes.
Everything else is not worth anything. Not even your Shit-21 that uses missiles it never could and has an upside down radar among other things.
Logan Ortiz
GUISE WE ONLY HAVE A FEW PEOPLE. WE ARE NOW TAKING THE JEB APPROACH, SLOW AND STEADY. FIRST TEN MEMBERS GET A GUAC BOWEL AND A LITTLE TURTLE

I am not a kid like you who is just an emotion based shithead so views all through that filter and implied mindset. But come on and tell me how crazy mad I am right now ;). You know, the follow up to the 'projection defense'. I mean this is the 2 tier response of you retards. It is in every thread by the same 3-4 faggots who spend their days here day in day out making this the useless shithole it is.

He is attacking a specified point (Waypoint whatever he said), from heading 110 off the waypoint, and his attack is 7nm long. So, the computer likely is guiding him to that initial attack point, at which point he turns towards the waypoint and attacks.
Robert Lee
And I thought flying the Mig-21 was like being a conductor on a steam engine with it's old ass systems. This feels like a Steam Punk Fighter jet meets old school type writer. It's gonna be some work to get this to work properly, that's for sure.

Anyone here that owns the TM Warthog HOTAS, are there any sensor replacements available?
I'm browsing a bit but everything I can find is some privately made sensors that can go up to 400$. Wasn't there a rumor that you can put the Warthog stick on the VKB sensor or something?
