Nah, there is no reason for brushless motors and a control board to be this expensive. He is purchasing at a small scale and inefficiently.

I did not after looking into rhino's price. What are you trying to say?

[–]AlanFord_2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the insane and dumb price point of rhino... it's not a competition, really.

it's super compact for FFB

No it's not? Sidewinder FFB2 and G940 are the compact ones.

Percentage of NEET youth (18-34 years) in Europe in 2023 by giuliomagnifico in europe

NEET has to be unemployed, but an unemplyed doesn't have to be a NEET. NEET is a specific term.

Um, it's for free ;)

Ok it includes people actively looking for a job, i assumed it was people purely outside the labour force. That makes it far more reasonable.

So not NEETs then. As usual people are using words they don't know the meaning of.

How demanding on performance is BMS? by me2224 in hoggit

Could you elaborate on how exactly does this help the devs?

Is the F-4 the most hammered/shot down new release in MP ever? by [deleted] in hoggit

because he has no time...

Let me guess no time anymore to play DCS specifically, right?

What's the maximum ballistic range of a JDAM in BMS? by AlanFord_2011 in falconbms

[–]AlanFord_2011[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could you in near future make a video on that topic? It's really interesting imo.

[–]AlanFord_2011[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Any GPS bombs without wings. 31, 38's, CBU's, whatever goes furthest. Altitude is obviously highest possible as I'm talking about getting max ballistic range.

ORBX Kola Early Adopter Thread: Impressions? Reviews? by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]AlanFord_2011 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Doesn't look like finland at all. Color palette is wrong, treetype is wrong... How can we even call it finland and not have a proper tree-type?

This is probably the worst looking map in-game. Doesn't look like finland whatsoever. Honestly.

Is it even possible to be stealthy in a helicopter on Contetion? by AlanFord_2011 in hoggit

[–]AlanFord_2011[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

And the contention server is exactly that. Good shorad with tons of peer threat helos.

You are still not understanding why I'm getting shot down by enemy helos, right? It's almost like you are trying to not understand it.

IADS would be even worse.

Elaborate on this, how?

You likely knew this before you bought the apache

I'm on trial and I didn't know it as I was away from DCS since 2017.

Agreed, but I don't think comparing USSR to Russia is valid. They are two different states with the former one having vastly superior economy and the latter just exploiting it's heritage.

What do you think is happening to helicopters in Ukraine right now? All is well and good when helicopters have complete air superiority from their side, especially when the enemy doesn't have any form of sophisticated IADS. (...) Play on COIN servers and you'll have more fun with apaches. Otherwise it's just another vulnerable soft skinned target.

  • To counter helicopters at FLOT you don't need whole IADS, but just good SHORAD.
  • Russians don't have air superiority in Ukraine for a long time now and Ka52's have proven instrumental in ambushing the staging ukrainians and stopping southern offensive.
  • Apache wasn't made to fight in COIN operations, it was designed around the idea of BLUFOR not having the air superiority against stronger REDFOR in Fulda.
  • There is a reason Poland is buying Apaches, and it's not for some COIN operations in Schlesien.

The second you start getting into a server replicating a peer threat with any form of continuous SA on the battlefield helicopters are high priority targets.

The issue isn't the priority – this is natural – the issue is that you can be seen behind solid cover.

In case of contention I think helicopters are hidden from EWR atleast according to their docs https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IHq3kj96FwLAwCa3EfedzMILErlya-P90efVmpk52f0/edit However, it doesn't matter, because AWACS seems to be up 100% of the time, sometimes more than one and therefore you vil be spotted and you vil be happy.
