So I'm a DCS Player in just about every way you can think of by now. But I do own and have flown in BMS a fair bit as well. though I haven't really sat down and done too much mission wise. DCS does need and is slowly getting a more BMS like Mission Editor. However, I'll say this. While i See BMS and DCS as more or less the same in Many ways, I'd honestly say they're equals, However not in the same fields. The Majority of DCS "pilots" play Singleplayer/solo missions they build themselves and barely ever ventures out into the wider world of Online play, and I think BMS is better on that side. more to the point. if you wanna fly Online in DCS I'd advise anyone new or old to DCS to find a group to fly with. you'll find groups that don't even let you join them unless you're capable of passing their checkrides (I'd stay away from those tbh) and then there's the good ones that will still have a checkride for the people that want more of a challenge, but that will focus on simply teaching you whatever level of Flight in your Favorite plane that you want to learn. but ultimately, I don't think you can really compare the two. for me DCS just has more for me to do. if I want a Deep strike that takes 5 hours with AAR and dodging SAM's and AA missiles and what have you I can either set that up fairly quickly or jump on a server where that's already built into the mission. Brevity is fine and all. Formation flying is Fine and all. and if that's your Jam you'll do just as fine in either Sim-Game if you ask me. same if you don't really feel like it. The only Real argument for one over the other that I personally can see/find however, is that BMS is basically free. gotta buy Falcon-4 and mod it with BMS and you're good to go. less options in Airframes than DCS. But it's free. and the Graphics don't matter if the flight-mechanics are good and shit does what it's supposed too. And DCS while free to play and download. in fact you mentioned one of the best Mods for DCS that is around. the A-4 is free. because community mod. and you get a SU-25T and TF-51D for free plus two maps with DCS. so you CAN fly in DCS for free. but high-fidelity and "realizm" costs a bit. Either way whichever one you like the most is the one you should play in the most. still think the arguments from both sides is stupid. none of it is REAL aircraft going into a REAL combat-area in the real world. so it's redundant at the end of the day. if you ask me anyway.

You’ve trimmed the pitch and it still does this? There seems to be a bug where I get a violent pitch up or down as I accelerate or decelerate through certain speeds (these speeds vary based on altitude maybe) but most of the time it’s stable enough if trimmed. Something’s probably broken w/ the flight model, or maybe it’s something about stability augmentation modeling in BMS I don’t understand and am using wrong.

kzbin.info/www/bejne/gKeYanaepN6qbLssi=4uHMoahuRpNMRwpW The beauty of a sparrow fired with no lock in BST is I should be able to crank up to the radar gimbals and fire a SECOND sparrow at a second bandit. So I wasn’t in STT- I decided that some I’m facing 2 bandits with one behind the other by a couple miles, I’ve want Jester to “track” both bandits till within visual range on the closest guy. I was hoping I could bag them both - killing the trail bandit just before he passes me in the merge. Pulled it off in a previous flight.

Now you can play with gain and antenna elevation from the front seat with jester enabled. Use your wso-antenna elevation controls for the pilot, and jester won't override that. Gain control from the pilot seat is also an option, but jester will override it after a few seconds unless you'll slightly change it all the time. He wil react to the contacts that appear in higher gains only. That way you can do the same thing as you do in this video without jumping between cockpits

@Wheelman_PCAS

that button is for uncaging sidewinder seekers just before firing. the Cage button is what enters cage mode, a 5 mile range radar setting which allows the WSO to lock something in your pipper, or the pilot to enter auto acquisition mode by then pressing the nose gear steering button to attempt an auto lock. Here I'm just entering cage mode, putting the pipper over a visual target, and firing a sparrow with no lock. The missile interlock switch must be in the "out" position, and the aspect knob in the back seat must be in the proper position - watch other flood mode tutorials about this
@Wheelman_PCAS

I’m calling it “boresight” but technically the WSO hasn’t selected the actual boresight switch position from his seat. Kinda an override from the pilot seat but this should be called “cage mode” as I understand

It really is. I know there are a lot of pages but there isn’t a lot ON each page. One page for a picture of a switch and a description.

I just wish the manual would explain how certain features should be used and why you would want to use them (instead of just the switch to activate it).

I think if you like just flying the F-16 in a Mil-sim environment, BMS is great. The BMS A-10 isn’t close to the DCS A-10C in fidelity while I can’t speak to the F-15 in BMS as I haven’t flown it. BUT…what if I don’t want to fly an F-16, F-15 or A-10 ALL THE TIME? DCS offers dozens of high fidelity aircraft from different nations and different eras; not to mention helicopters. I can fly some missions in an F-16…and then hop in an F-4 Phantom for a Yom Kippur 1973 scenario. Then I can take out the Mi-24 Hind or an AH-64 Apache. Then I can play a highly realistic F.A-18 campaign where I’m based on a carrier before diving into a 1989 “liberation” campaign flying the F-14. DCS offers so many high fidelity platforms and lets you experience them over 9 different maps in whatever era you would like (with corresponding correct weapons).

I find aim-7Es to be useless. Even when Jester gets a lock, you wait 4 seconds and -when you fire- the enemy is nose-on hot 3 miles away, it will miss if the enemy aircraft moves at all. It’s hard to practice your procedures and tactics when you can’t tell whether your missile fails to guide or hit b/c you made a mistake or because the missle failed. For that reason, I think people should learn how to use the aim-7 with the “M” model. The Aim-7m is a really good missile so if you follow procedures and launch in parameters inside 5 miles, you have a really good chance of a hit. So if it just flies off and doesn’t track, you know YOU did it wrong.

@@Wheelman_PCAS Yes, the Aim-7F is an improvement over the E model but i don't find its by a whole lot. The Aim-7M variant that came out in 1982 is a VERY capable missile and performed excellently in the 1991 Gulf War. They are deadly in that 2-5 mile range. Doesn't mean it hits all the time but it is reliable enough that - if you are using the systems properly, you should have no problem taking out head-on approaching aircraft 5-6 miles out. If you are consistently having Aim-7M missiles fail to track/impact, then you are likely doing something wrong. I advocate using the variant that is realistic for the time period; BUT, when it comes to learning the system, use the variant that lets you know when you are doing it right. You have no idea if your Aim-7Es aren't ever hitting b/c of your error or the missile failing, Makes correcting errors tough
