What, the procedures thread hasn't scared anyone off yet?

Ka-52 would be nice for multiplayer, but imagine being stuck with an AI gunner/pilot in SP...

Nah, don't really read it, I'm happy with my lwin+home.

Or to put it like Vasquez from Aliens; I only need to know one thing, where they are? *makes shooting gesture with her hand*

Yes, engine start up is all that's in there.

Just hope it doesn't bug out again though, might be because the mission runs for so long.

I know, I glanced the stuff, but I rather get fully used to flying and shooting before going in-depth.

Yeah, wouldn't expect people to memorize the lot of it right of the bat. But some of the basic stuff, like the trimmer implementation, flight-director and the weapons system are pretty much required to get anywhere.

Basic use of the PVI and route-mode is straightforward as well, and can really make your life easier, especially on long flights.

I'm starting to think that the trimmer doesn't work that well with my joystick, lots of problems with DCS and FF joysticks. I can't get the trim to work, no matter what I do with the stick. Got it to kinda work when used keyboard.
