Lock On: Modern Air Combat? I need help.

I have the demo. I want to fly the A-10A. All I can do is fly around and get shot. I do not know how to attack or fire weapons. Ive tried remapping the keys, assigning to my joystick, etc. Nothing works.

I would recommend DCS: A-10C Warthog, easy enough to fly but learning how to use the weapons will take some time.

Will DCS A-10C work on my laptop?

It sounds like the best flight sim ever. Im rather fond of the A-10.
