    Just tried out spawning a SAM unit and trying to evade but as soon as the missile is launched the Chaffs and flares are depleted in one go leaving none to use when you need them. I have a button mapped to my joystick which turns the chaffs and flares on and off which works only when the SAM unit hasn't fired a missile. As soon as a missile is in the air they deplete immediately. Could this be fixed soon please?

  2. Hi guys, I recently purchased TacPack and my goto Aircraft was the Tomcat rather than the Superbug. Which is on next weeks purchase. So anyway. The problem that I have been experiencing, and I don't believe that this is an expectation thing. But there is almost like a one second delay between when I move my joystick and when the flight controls move. Whether I'm in the site or on the ground. So no matter which one, ailerons, elevators, or even the nose wheel. Basically make the aircraft unflyable. Is this expected behavior? As M pertussis that it's not. I have version 1.10 with hotfix 1.11 installed. I am running P3Dv2.5 with TacPack 1.5? Windows 7 Pro. No ot…

    I have a strange problem with the F-14. As soon as i reach 12000 feet the left spoilers deploy and the aircraft banks hard to the left. After a hard time recovering it happens again when approaching 12000 feet. So i cannot climb above 12000 ft. I have version 1.10 on fsx acceleration. And yes...i tried deinstall/reinstall a lot of times....didn't help Does somebody have a solution for that?

    Hello again, I'm very noob at the Navigation chapter (even after printing and reading that manual, and reading here in the forum), so I would apreciate your help please. So far I've managed to get TACAN and / or ILS Needles indications working fine in the Carriers, but I don't quite understand how some things work. However I don't know how to get any of those things working in civilian airports. Let's say, I'm flying my F-14 from some Carrier at the East Coast sea, and I want to land at " Newark International Airport ", or " Laguardia International Airport ", etc, my doubts are: - Can I have some TACAN, symbol; indication; something; for civilian ai…

    Dear All, How do I know that the AN/ALQ-100 is actively jamming? When flying against a SAM site, aside form the salvo flares, having no jamming support is rather problematic and makes it significantly harder. Thanks, Peter

  10. Hello everyone, Would appreciate your opinion on a little doubt please: I don't understood exactly which AIM-9 target acquisition mode is featured in F-14X. Reading the manual (Vol. 6 - Weapons), on the section about the AIM-9, it is referenced "Boresight", but then, when a target lock is obtained, a SEAM LOCK advisory will light up ? I also belive that, in Boresight mode, the AIM-9 seeker head should be positioned precisely on target, but in FSX it suffices to the seeker head be in the vicinity of the target on HUD. So I don't understand very well all this - which modes in fact are represented here, Boresight ? SEAM ? Both ? Feel free to leave …

    Hello, This is slightly outlandish in its request, but in enjoying flying the Tomcat, I was wondering whether this could be integrated, because it is one of the more fun aspects of Tacpack. The Navy and Grumman briefly toyed with the idea of integrating the AGM-88 HARM into the Tomcat. And while it never occurred sadly, is it possible a mode could be made for it in a rather simple way? Either to just have SP mode. Or if you are feeling adventurous perhaps a TOO mode that can be controlled from the RIO ECM display? Perhaps it can be B variant exclusive. Thanks, Peter

    I re-installed the F-14X recently and now all the clutter save two tomcats have disappeared from the deck of the carrier, I have tried the substitutes included but they don't change anything. Any ideas what I could be missing? Thanks

    Hello, First, I wanted to say how excited I am by this new release. It is a spectacular aircraft. So I finally got a chance to fire it up in P3Dv2. The issue is, when I check controls before takeoff, everything is fine (rudder,ailerons, elevators). But as soon as I take off, gear up, the ailerons cease to function, and I can't roll. On external view, when I move the stick left or right, the ailerons and elevators don't even move, they just just flicker really fast, dissapearing and reapearing. Right before takeoff, the animation for both is fine. Any ideas ? Thanks again for this great release. Can't wait to get it working

    Hello Now that TacPack for P3D has been released, will the F-14 X automatically work with it once I install it, or do I need to wait for an update to F-14 X ? Thanks in advance for any info. Happy flying.

    I have seen this post before I think but I have to ask; has anyone had the FLOLS appear then taper off as if getting left behind by the movement of the ship? The wave off lights go first. Next the ball itself. and finally the datums. Is it me and my machine or is this a problem that is being worked on? This happens with Kitty Hawk btw> I don't have Javiers carriers installed yet. I just got into P3d and it looks awesome despite this problem. Please advise and thanks in advance. Heavy

    In the manual it mentions that the radar sorts aircraft into groups such as unidentified or hostile. I am curious is there a way to manually designate targets? So far all I have seen is the 'u' symbol or at least the it looks closer to a 'u' than a 'v'. Thanks -Wingmate

    The wings are stuck in the emergency sweep mode,which is full back. I tried using the lever next to the throttle and it moves but the wings do not. ANy help would be appreciated. I went to cold and dark then back to ready to taxi and the wings seem to sweeping but not visually. In flight I see the wing sweep lever moving when in auto but visually the wings arent sweeping. I have also noticed the throttle is not visually moving either.
