Look guys, I know. There is a BUNCH MORE STUFF that's not mentioned here. I get it. But I didn't want to make an hour and a half video depicting everything. I KNOW there are things here that have missing information, but again, as the disclaimer says, it's not about saying everything correctly to the dot under FAA guidelines. This is DCS, and this is for the beginners who are scared to talk to us on the radios because some of you guys flip out over minor details. So yes, this guide is FAR from perfect, but gosh darn it, it's a good start. As they get more familiar and get un-shy, they can learn more and be more proficient as they progress.

Also, for the record as a pilot, the official FAA stance is that if you don't know brevity just use plain English. You're pilot in command, and you're responsible for the safety of the flight. If that means you have to speak in full sentences there's nothing wrong with that.

this has always been an issue. everyone knows how to fly and it's fun. The issue is always been the radio. People are scared and talking on the radio is like talking in front of the class and getting heckled when they were a kid. I don't know how many times I have told perfect Pete to shut up and leave the new kid alone, he's still learning and we were all there at one point. One or two times of that and usually the server calms down and perfect Pete goes back to dying a perfect death because while his radio is awesome, he needs to learn to fly better :) Also, the new kids like it because we can teach them and they are willing to learn once they know we won't attack them like perfect Pete!

One key thing forgotten by so many as in 18:02 video position Radio communication is not speed talking. You are not trying to talk your message as fast as possible so you can be done with it or that you can save frequency time for others. Be slow, be clear and if you want to slot the longer communication - then keep short pauses between proper message content. So example 1-2 seconds between each row when landing: Anapa Traffic Hentai 3-4 Is on Left Base For Runway 4 Anapa Radio is one-way communication where pauses are important. If someone has emergency, they get the priority by having change to talk between your message. When not everyone on the server are fluent with English, then they have easier time to as well understand. And when you talk as radio communication goes, you make more clear that what is happening. As someone listening multiple radios can focus better on multiple communications. As well going slow helps to keep on track that what is happening. And those who are using the radio effects, you get situations here you have high noise or you have low signal, and that is where you want to have good and clear words and parts that what is happening. The slow pace and slotting the communication as well helps people to concentrate that what is their message and what they are suppose to say. There is no "Mhhmm....." or "Aaaaaa....." between words etc as you learn to do it short. In a high traffic moments the shorter message then better.
@MillionFoul5 жыл бұрын
Hehe, doing all my flight training at an uncontrolled airport is very useful for DCS! For new people, even real life communications are pretty relaxed, you are always talking to another person. If you're at LAX might want to practice a bit first, but ATC are the only people who have to use and have you use perfect phraseology so in DCS don't sweat it. Keep it short and sweet, and don't get too embarrassed when you inevitably forget how to speak mid-sentence. Always remember to do the classic: "Salt Lake Center, Skyhawk N8089E... uuuuhhhhhh..." so the airline pilots can get a chuckle out of you.

My two cents: if you hear someone using an unfamiliar term and you're curious or think it might be important to know to prevent a collision or some such, feel free to ask. If someone asks you to clarify/simplify because they don't understand you, don't be a dick about it! And remember, complicated as it can be, DCS is a GAME. If there's a miscommunication and it results in a crash, the most you lose is some time. Relax, laugh it off, and move on!

really enjoyed your video, simple and informative, its a lot easier to understand it when you can hear someone confident in radio voice procedures compared to reading some text and still wondering if you've said the correct thing. However, and I don't want to sound like a voice procedure nazi but the "zero" when calling out single digits is not redundant, the "zero" is called out to try save confusion if the radio transmission is poor or broken so Runway 04 is not accidently understood as Runway 4(x). Obviously this only being a simulation, you're not really going to get a bad transmission so its just a little FYI rather than me having a rant. Thats at least what I was taught on my radio signals course during my time in the British Army

In the west the convention is usually to use QNH (sea level pressure) instead of QFE and just remember the field elevation. In fact on some airfields in DCS (cough cough Nevada cough) with some aircraft you literally don't have enough scale to set QFE. One thing I used to do when I was starting out was to just leave it at the max setting if I didn't have enough scale (DON'T DO IT YOU'LL DIE). Since this is technically Russia and Russia is one of like 2 countries in the world that use QFE in aviation instead it's up to personal preference, but in the miracle case someone runs a Nevada server it is just not practical to use QFE there. The thing with QNH is that you need to remember the field elevation when you look at the altimeter, or you might end up as a hole in the ground, so typically I use QNH everywhere unless I fly either a MiG-21 or an L-39 specifically on a Russian field. Now, I know the the game kind of pushes QFE (Russian sim after all) even in Nevada/PG, but due to a need to keep track of additional data when flying using QNH, it's better to stick to it. The reason behind that is that if you get used to QNH and confuse the two in a low visibility conditions, when you have to use QFE for a change, you'll be fine - you'll just find yourself surprised that the ground is a few hundred feet away and go around. If it's the other way around however - for example you're used to flying the MiG-21 with QFE and then fly a mission at Groom Lake, and have to use QNH because you can't set Groom Lake QFE in the Balalaika (in fact the procedures for the MiG-21 call for setting standard pressure when the airfield elevation is above 1000m and asking the tower for pressure altitude at the airfield - something you can't do in DCS, so it's best to stick to QNH) - if you forget that you need to take field elevation into account when using QNH you will drill a hole in the desert before you even manage to Naruto run that coffin into Area 51. And yes, I did kill myself this way once, that's why I'm wasting my time typing this.

Prethink the sentence you will say the information you want to relay. Dont start talking and press the button at the same time, you cut of your own sentence. Its a simpel rule in real life and in every team based game you may play. From Military, civilian, to gaming. Also side not if you end your message with a over its meanse you expect a return message, from the person you send it to. If you end your message with a over and out or just out you dont expect a return or you want a return message confirming or denying your message.

Interesting about using the QFE instead of the current ALT setting from the ATIS, I guess that would be easier for a lot of people. I'd love to try online comms via the SRS, but I just couldn't get that thing set up right! :S

Thanks for the lesson, I am working on get equipment to become a DCS ATC/JTAC on some of the server. Then I get in to flying. Do all or most server run LotATC software? I have my own LotATC License.

Hey Ralfidude I know this been a while, but I'm confused as to how they setup the radios vs talking to real people vs AI, using my TM Warhog. Do I use the keyboard commands to talk to AI and the TM to talk with real people.
