  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Wish we had an F-8...

Wish someone would do an F-8E/J and RF-8A/G for MSFS and MSFS 2020. RFN's F-8 was gorgeous...but for FSX/P3D...Need the MigMaster back in game!
 
I have the F-8E by Roland Laborie.
It's not on par with modern standard 3D quality but the cockpit is not bad at all.
Flight-model wise, once you set the CG at the maximum back position, it flies nicely. It's completely unflyable if you let the CG at the default position in the load manager though.
 
I've got the F-8E by Laborie as well. I managed to wrestle it around the pattern (barely). I agree that the cockpit is decent, but there is no paintkit. Can you please share how to move the CG to full (Looks like it's in the flight model .cfg file...). It appears that the default for CG aft limit is 0.3. Going to try 0.5 and see what happens.

Thanks,

Kent

I just move it backwards (drag and drop by mouse) on the default MSFS load manager screen, where you set the fuel and other payloads.

DCS: A-7E Development Update

G'day guys! We know that you've been itching to find out more, so this report will be purely focused on the development state of the A-7E Corsair II for DCS World. The SLUF has an all new, much improved 3D model and today we're happy to be sharing the first pictures of the new model in-sim...

"The A-7E will be coming to MSFS (2024) also! In fact, after we have finished the Spit V2, the SLUF will be our sole focus!"

Any chance of an A-7D/K combo in the pipeline?
