  1. Built this user interface with Helios, it runs on my Samsung Tablet beautifully.

      Yeah Helios is pretty amazing, I'm getting so many ideas about what I could use it for, the mind boggles. This one is a great option if you dont have a dedicated ICP, and the Altimeter & HSI enable me to modify their settings without the need to look down. Helios connects to Falcon BMS via the Full BMS keyfile. Took me a little while to get my head around the mapping but once you get it sorted its a piece of cake.

      I'm going to create profiles for the AV-8B+ Harrier, F/A-18 Hornet, and the F-15C Eagle, this will enable me to use the tablet to control systems that are not available in the pit. It may also mean I could potentially use my slider to control the VTOL nozzles, gimme time to work that one out, its a biggie!

      Yeah I love the mentality of the Aggressor Pilots too, they're there to make the Blu force better pilots by exploiting their mistakes.

      Yeah thanks, finally mastered the HSI now and can hit those runways 100% every time.

      Stark is coming along nicely with his SEAD skills too!

      Yeah I have experimented with other settings but the default one seems to be the best for fleets at sea.

  7. Flew the latest version of Falcon BMS 4.36. Looks very nice so far. ATC glitches the screen occasionally but otherwise its great.

  8. Currently working on another AV-8B II+ Harrier skin in Falcon 4.0 BMS. This version is closer to the Sea Harrier FRS1 colour scheme used early in the Falklands War.

    Colours: Extra Dark Sea Grey (Humbrol 123) over Satin White (Humbrol 130).

    Sea Harrier FRS1 Colour Schemes

    'Prior to the Falklands, RN Fleet Air Arm Sea Harriers carried a two-tone scheme of Humbrol 123 (Extra Dark Sea Grey) over Humbrol 130 (Satin White). During the campaign, these aircraft had the white portions over-painted to make an overall Humbrol 123 (Extra Dark Sea Grey) scheme. In operations, this scheme was deemed too dark at high level and replacement aircraft were given an Medium Sea Grey paint job. After the Falklands campaign, all Sea Harriers were repainted in an even lighter scheme of overall Humbrol 164 (Dark Sea Gray).'

    'Operationally this overall scheme was deemed too dark and replacement aircraft were painted with a lighter scheme of overall Medium Sea Grey. All aircraft were gradually repainted in the lighter scheme during and after the campaign'.

      A six part series of the Falklands War, quite interesting overall summary of the war. Not much footage of the Harriers unfortunately but without them the ground troops would have struggled and lost more soldiers.
       

       

  9. Bought the AV-8B Night Attack DLC for DCS (50% off), so been busy doing the ramp start tutorials and getting familiar with the systems and comparing them to Falcon BMS.
