Mosquito FB MkVI: 1143/54/55 Radio Communication & D/F Navigation | DCS WORLD

[@jamescouling6460]

Hi Cap, hope you're still taking requests for reenactments and silly stuff go do from films, can you do some super accurate science and see if the chopper fight from 'The A Team' (2010 film) is possible? Many thanks and looking forward to more vids, keep it up chaps! Link to scene: kzbin.info/www/bejne/l4q6hWecdrmVgsU

@@grimreapers Please let me kno what you think about my request..?? F-4U Corsair VS MIG-15 Historical Reenactment👍 During the Korean War U.S. Prop Planes shot down MIG's on a couple occasions-- The Hawker Sea Fury shot down a MIG-15 and The AU4 Corsair also shot down a MIG-15! Vietnam-- A-1 Skyraider shoots down MIG-17 on two separate occasions!! You could even add a small Documentary about some of the information I mentioned before the fight😁✌

@@grimreapers cool, I'll take that as you love it

[@shuntera]

Such a fascinating subject and a real credit to ED to take the time and effort to model this behavior.

[@angrygandalf]

My dad used the T1154/55 set on RAF marine craft during the late 60s. Loved using it and knew it inside and out. Sadly he passed away last year but would have loved to been able to educate me on how it worked.

[@lankypilot778]

Really is oustanding work on this module. The multicrew/navigation & being first dual prop has added whole other dimension to the warbirds. Thanks to Dragan/Dragon for his efforts!

[@grimreapers]

thx

[@WilliamBrothers]

So cool. Mission ideas that come to mind is locating a beacon with a halftrack transmitting and when you approach it he tells you where enemy forces are relative to him

[@InterstellarTaco]

This is rediculous. Just when you think you figured out and love a plane this gem shows up. Fabulous job with this mosquito

[@wanderer5200]

Wow. This plane just keeps getting better. Thank you for sharing.

[@angelarch5352]

wow just wow!!! the detail in this sim is mind blowing!

[@sloppydog4831]

Hi Cap, Congratulations on the video, it is lots of important information put out in a concise manner. Some observations: 1) It is really nice to see you geeking out on this. Mega kudos to ED for this modelling, it is every radio nerd dream come true in a simulation; 2) So RC is a SmokeJumper, a Firefighting pilot and a Radio Show Host? Is there anything this beautiful human can't do? The mistery of RC only grows... 3) The two needles on the Direction Finder Indicator should be always crossed. They are called the "Two Drunken Men", because they always lean on each other. Once you balance them out, you change the amplitude so they rest on the reference lines below the L and the R. From there you fly towards the signal station. If they are crossed and balanced on the lines, they can give you a rough estimate of distance to the station, because as you get near the station the needles will be higher and higher on the indicator. This video is a golden mine of information on their use: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoDcd52tir-alcU&lc=z22chlm55wmqtpwr004t1aokge5350uxeyxpwqb4pplrbk0h00410

[@grimreapers]

Awesome thanks!

[@yjwrangler7819]

I'd adore having that radio in my apartment.

[@grimreapers]

cool

[@ziggyinc]

As a Ham radio hobbyist, this tutorial is very addicting. I would love to fly with a real pilot and just run the radios! I can barely get off the ground.

[@grimreapers]

:)

[@No1sonuk]

Yeah. I've been playing with the radios FAR more than I need to. ;)

[@lancesmith1925]

Great tutorial - really enjoyed your enthusiasm for the nerdy stuff...way cool

[@davidmurphy8190]

Thanks!

[@jameshewitt8828]

Really interesting seeing you physically move the Loop aerial, thats nulling the signal

[@Lonefit-101]

I am super excited that I can do some IFR style navigating. I wonder if they will include Oboe at some point.. DCS really is setting a remarkable standard. Well done

[@cmibm6022]

Geat video about some amazing gear. I am just a bit disappointed that you did not mention "the green eye" - what we always used to fine tune radios to a constant signal in those days.

[@PaletoB]

This is the stuff I love doing in the huey, but on a whole new level. Also with two beacons some simple triangulation on the map can give your location and range.

[@AnvilAirsoftTV]

My brain is way too smooth for all this! :)

[@grimreapers]

same

[@CakePrincessCelestia]

Great stuff. Never seen WWII nav in such detail, the closest ever was the very simplified AFN-2 homing in Il-2 when flying Heinkels and later the YG and YE-ZB carrier homing systems added to 46 by Daidalos. This now is a whole new level to it and makes things much more interesting! But one thing has to be said, again. The cursor is extremely hard to see, especially at just 1200p (since your footage is 1440p) which makes it everything else than easy to follow your explanations. The same goes for many videos that Wags puts out BTW. The real shame is that the cursor size was twice as much back in 1.5 and earlier. If only we could change it, or at least have the old size back... would be awesome if you guys maybe could forward a request for this to the team :)

[@grimreapers]

Roger, need cursor size setting?

[@CakePrincessCelestia]

@@grimreapers Yep :)

[@MateusVarandas_]

I'd love an hour long in depth video on this! Idk why, but I love messing with radios and stuff in DCS

[@ChattytumblerTCW]

Fantastic video, and a great module! If ever an aircraft needed an auto-pilot / auto level function it’s this one - very hard to do anything from the back without crashing when flying solo :)

I just watched videos I don't fly virtual or otherwise but I will tell you that is very fascinating! I am glad I subscribed

[@Erholts]

The most important thing for me is if I can find some enemy planes with this? Nightfighter?

[@xneri772]

Dcs is now officially a radio tuning simulator

[@grimreapers]

yup

[@garethwatcham7792]

Great video, had just been trying to get my head around this for the last few days and it's clarified it a lot thanks - Just wish I could sort out my custom snap views now

F-4U Corsair VS MIG-15 Please reenact this historic dogfight👍 During the Korean War U.S. Prop Planes shot down MIG's on a couple occasions-- The Hawker Sea Fury shot down a MIG-15 and The AU4 Corsair also shot down a MIG-15! Vietnam-- A-1 Skyraider shoots down MIG-17 on two separate occasions!!

[@Anarchy_420]

You've done a short Vid on The F-4U Corsair and we haven't really seen it in action, this request would be an excellent way to try it out and make an Epic historical reenactment! You could even do a small Documentary about the information I mentioned😁✌

[@crunchieRL]

Amazing

[@MateusVarandas_]

9:20 Cap, you'll no longer need to google or memorize the morse codes. I've been sitting on a morse code kneeboard I've made a looong time ago, and since I couldn't find any uploaded on dcs site I decided to share mine there. As I write this i've just uploaded it and I'm still waiting for it to go active, but once it does I'll link it here for everyone to get :)

[@grimreapers]

Cool!

[@jcjammer8972]

So ....... much ............ information ........... 🤯

Didn't know RC was a musician too. Care to share his music or a link to his music? Btw I'm blown away by this nav/comm system.

Summer 23 and this bird is on sale. After my miles I got it for $19. What a steal. How do you get sick so often? They wear clothes where youre from dont they?

Does this mean you can hone in on another mosquito’s transmitter?

[@grimreapers]

Great question!

Can you simulate the much-worried-about Chinese drone swarm attacks on a US carrier group?

[@grimreapers]

Very interesting, what details do you have? Could you please msg me in Discord to discuss? thx

[@nath-hh2ff]

I've been trying to figure this stuff out on the 109... it's not going well. I used your videos to learn the other systems thanks.

[@grimreapers]

I also couldn't get 109 to work...

[@grimreapers]

recently

[@gmangnall]

I get this working for a couple of minutes after which the tranmission simply stops. Anyone else getting the same?

[@gmangnall]

Not sure who hit the like; I assume you have the same issue.....and the fix is the two power switches. One is high power and one is low power. You just need the low power swich for the radio and DF....I suspect the high power switch is for something yet to be modelled. Maybe the aeriel switch which has a HF on trailing option??? What is cool is that ED have seemingly modelled a blown valve!!! :-)

[@No1sonuk]

"R/T" is "Radio Telephony" (voice), not "Receive/Transmit". The morse code is "ND", not "DA" The longer version of this comment seems to have been deleted...

[@grimreapers]

thanks

[@tomriley5790]

Erm that doens't seem to be DA in morse code - more like ND, otherwise great video :-)!

[@No1sonuk]

I mentioned that, along with "R/T" being "Radio Telephony", not "Receive/Transmit", but the comment appears to have been deleted.
