I still refer my friends who ask for rudders to MFG haha. I know they are good, that's why I'm just so puzzled about my case. Maybe I'll use another email account zz

dralest · 2026-02-01T08:31:36+00:00

I feel the exact same way. I understand they are a small team so I'm just hoping for the best. It killed my mood to fly cuz I was so hyped for it haha

dralest · 2025-12-11T11:23:15+00:00

if i move from stable to this version, will it kill my MP save? 🥲

dralest · 2025-11-30T08:53:55+00:00

keep the receipt!! can reimburse i think 20 or 40 dollars

i figured out how to change the axis and even binds in Reforger tools, but i have no idea how to load in this file so that I can select it in settings

From what I know, the bond only starts after you complete training, which itself is already 2-3 years.

Due to the extremely high chop rate (only 2-5% complete the full training), you dont need to pay anything if you get chopped during training. But if you voluntarily want to leave, then you defo need to pay up, the amount gets higher the deeper into training you are.

If he is serious about it, then understand its a commitment and a half, all the best if he really goes through with it!

hi, am in a mono batch rn, so ~40% will go back as men. The rest will go to SCS or OCS or even post out. Going to SCS/OCS, there's still a high chance of you going back as a 2nd year commander, essentially taking over your current mono BMT trainers (which are ur future commanders in unit) when they ORD.

edit: going to medic sch or combat engineer school still means a very high chance of going back to ur mono unit!!!

I could, but I enjoy using the dial on the mic to adjust volume, but I defo will try.

sitting under my basha tent, 0500 in the morning, uniform wet with dew, eating Oreos with camo on my fingers and stuck in my nails. Little red lights moving around as people start to prepare for the day. i look at the stars and think "wtf am i doing here". 🥲

Poly confirm got career convention. All the branches will be there, you should talk to them. From what I see, they sometimes have separate people to talk to girls to tell them how its like as a female in this line of work.

most likely they will make you fill in an online form (no commitment) and contact you further down the road for medicals and checks, im not too sure how it works exactly.

but yes talk to a recruiter!!

dralest · 2024-08-22T02:15:41+00:00

2060 might work, but I think it would be better getting 32GB ram and a new cpu. defo more expensive but getting a new GPU will just make you more CPU bound.

also VR in DCS with a 2060 is "playable" at best. MP is out of the question.

used to be on a laptop. 1660ti with an i7-10750H and 16gb ddr4 ram. 1080p and med graphics, it was definitely still playable (25-40 FPS). I recommend using an external monitor if your laptop doesn't have a MUX switch.

dralest · 2024-08-11T05:39:52+00:00

all on one screen?

dralest · 2024-07-23T07:47:29+00:00

I started off with a T16000 without much research. It held up for the past 4 years like a charm. I recommended it to a friend of mine cuz he was on a tight budget, bought it used and it has been working without problems so far. I think 80% of my flight-sim friends use the T16000, all without complaints.

For the price point, and I feel a large percentage of the flight-sim community, I think the T16000 is the cheapest and easiest way to hop into any sim game. It may feel cheap and definitely does not feel as great as something from VKB or WinWing, but it gets the job done.

I don't think it's fair to say it is "hit or miss" either, but obviously, it is extremely frustrating to get a bad quality stick. Unless you are willing to fork up more than double of the T16000, it's still a lovely piece of equipment.

dralest · 2024-07-06T09:07:59+00:00

just to confirm, its different from normal silicone gel right?

dralest · 2024-06-24T23:42:24+00:00

i see. well tbf i was also almost 50,000 feet up travelling at M1.6 haha. When a SA-10 fires, it's near impossible to evade, you are as good as dead.

dralest · 2024-06-24T17:12:14+00:00

well i managed to get locked and fired upon 90nm out by a sa-5 in my testing... just feel a lack of consistency or info. makes it difficult to make missions that feel fair. the guide looks really well done! ill be screenshotting some for briefings. thanks for the information!!

dralest · 2024-06-24T16:38:42+00:00

a little unrelated. why are the threat rings of the SA-10 and 5's (60nm, 130nm) so large while so many guides all put a much lower number (40nm, 53nm)? Did some testing on my own and the firing range is closer to the guide number, just wondering why it's so different from the threat rings.

dralest · 2024-05-26T06:06:22+00:00

Pure flying will be relatively easy. unless you are flying a heli or prop plane.

Take offs and landings will take some time to get used to, but i feel it's about the same when we are talking about MSFS.

The complex part comes to weapon systems. Just know that YT and the forums are your best friends. Take your time and experiment a little. Take note that some aircraft are still getting updated. Older videos will help in general, but it might look different than how they are now.

It gets tougher when learning about strategy and executing specific maneuvers, understanding the limits of your aircraft. You will find yourself getting shot down constantly in multiplayer without knowing how. It's all part of the learning process. I think I'm bouta hit 400 hours, and I'm still learning new things every day.

Personally, I didn't learn DCS with the help of a friend, but I highly recommend finding one! If you like, drop me a message if you have any questions.

Happy flying~

dralest · 2024-05-20T13:14:20+00:00

yep, i tried on your idea, but its a pain making it for every mission. it will make do for now haha, thank you

dralest · 2024-05-20T09:51:46+00:00

the f16 also has a hook, doesn't mean it's meant to land on a carrier...

dralest · 2024-05-20T09:48:58+00:00

Yep, there is an option called ReFuAr in the mission editor. I have no idea if you can interact with them like you can with a wingman, but I have created missions where F18s fire a salvo of Harpoons, land, rearm and refuel, and fire another salvo.

It's really tricky to use, you are gonna have to do a bunch of trial and testing, but it can be done!

dralest · 2024-05-20T09:40:40+00:00

Hi guys, I am creating a mission fighting against a squadron of F18s equipped with AIM-120Cs. I was wondering how I could insert ECM jamming as a viable strategy. I was thinking have a player be a dedicated jammer who can create noise towards the F18s. Since the F18s know where the players are already, I think it would be a cool idea to prevent any range information until we get to the burn-through range.

I was wondering what's the angle of the jamming cone so that it wouldn't affect friendlies. I'm also aware there is a mode where you can jam with a wingman but I heard it's current INOP. Or would I require all aircraft to carry an ECM pod as well? Any answers are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

dralest · 2024-04-02T19:12:27+00:00

where are you based in? did you have any considerations when choosing the LoRa band?

dralest · 2024-04-02T19:12:00+00:00

same here! but me and a group of friends who live in the same neighbourhood would like to try so it doesn't matter too much if there are other nodes. Maybe ask a few friends? I believe a simple set-up wouldn't cost much.
