Don't know if you've gotten feedback but the highlighting zones in this video are really nice. So much better than wiggling the cursor over something. Really appreciate the extra effort for that
Apologies for the delay. As you can imagine the module's under development, things are changing around a bit slowing down video. But also changes are being made in response to video work, as small issues are found by SMEs checking the video!
Can you give a rough order of what systems will be covered in future videos? (Not times obviously of when they will be available but just so we know what will be coming next). Also any idea when a early access manual will be available?
I know you've put it in a reply somewhere, but I really *REALLY* appreciate you putting in the extra time (and effort) to make the sections of cockpit you are talking about highlighted. It makes understanding and getting to grips with both the cockpit and the procedure SO MUCH more intuitive, and you don't have to constantly check where everything is, because the video showcases it very clearly. Really really appreciate them :)
*RedKite uploads a new video Me: *chuckles* "Sensation" Again: What a great video! Awesome job with the highlighting, even if its a lot of work it pays of for sure! Looking forward to the next one!
Oh man that tacan vector system is awesome! I was feeling really anxious about navigating in this aircraft. Navigating in slow moving props are one thing but moving at high speed for an attack run pilotage can get hairy. Awesome video!
Watching this made me understand how to do TACAN offsets on the Mirage 2000. So useful, especially for getting on a good approach line for a runway. Looking forward to doing it on the F1 too.
Thank you from France for the tutorial frankly at the top. F1 makes you want to. For instrument navigation addicts, I have made approach charts. They can be downloaded from the DCS user files. Type "CORSAIR" (in capitals) and the airport approach files are to be downloaded for Gulf, Syria and Marianas. I can't put the link otherwise my message is blocked by you tube. thanks again !

There shouldn't be any 'blocking' least not set by me. If you post a link, it should appear as if you did, but won't be approved until i manually say so, during that time you can see your comment, but others can't. If you're getting a blocked message, that sounds like youtube's doing, are you using an app?
That TACAN bearing distance feature is really cool. I've never seen that before in a plane. Though only useful for VFR navigation because you would never use a system like that for IFR navigation. At least not that I've ever heard of.
It is basically a rnav calculator, it is very useful in IFR as atc can tell you to proceed direct to a certain fix, which normally are defined as radial and distance from a ground based navaid such as a VOR or TACAN.
@@rafaelalmazan5844 yeah. I've never personally seen them asking you this unless you were in an RNAV aircraft. It actually was a question on the Delta knowledge test used by the regionals a few years ago. I came across that one. You're on VOR radial/DME, what is the heading to fly to different radial DME with no wind. It took me about 30 seconds to realize I'd forgotten all my trig and calculus from HS and just guessed randomly and moved on (the 4 choice answers were close enough that you couldn't just fudge it).
Another excellent installment, RedKite! Instruments all look great. (That bump texture on the panels could be toned down by half its depth though.) But the flight model looks a bit "on rails" in this one. Is there a really aggressive stabilization system in this aircraft or anything like that?
It has an autopilot system that's very similar to the M-2000C. But I think it looked weird in this video simply because he was flying to intercept the radial at 2x speed acceleration
@@eatleadcobra Oh he was? That might explain what I'm seeing. (It looked to me like the way the F-16 oscillates as it sticks itself exactly to the attitude it was in when you release the stick. Which obviously for a non-FBW plane is unrealistic.)
Excellent job ! The highlighted zones are very usefull. Just a question : how are you able to present some panels in angles not reachable with track IR ? I ask you this question because I use Touch Portal and I need to work with all switches or indicators I want to control from my tablet. Thank you for your work !
@@supertonique669 DCS/Mods/Aircraft//Views.lua and look for the line Limits_6DOF and adjust the X / Y / Z values to -9999,9999 or something to that effect. This will allow the camera outside the cockpit too, which will render incorrectly due to culling. Which is a bit of a problem if you are actually using trackir, as you'll do it by mistake. It'll also void your IC check when joining servers so beware. A less restrained limit could be set by trial and error but i'd not bother.
Thank you so much ! I have read a forum on this subject. With your informations and your experience, I'm going to try this method. In fact, I need to capture some controls and switches that I can modified with Paint Shop Pro to create a specific interface with TouchPortal. I've yet did that for the AV8B and the A4E-C.@@RedKiteRender
I've tested your method. It works ! I can now capture every panel and switches. Thanks a lot for your cooperation and your very good work.@@RedKiteRender
Thanks. The navigation tutorial training mission in game is utterly useless. I don't understand anything from that, whilst I immediately understood it from you.
hey, how do i turn on my TACAN? the light starts off red in the beginning of the video, but for me, no lights are on at all so i cant test or anything. please help.
Did they do another art pass on the cockpit or was it just the video/processing or just me seeing things. The 1st cold start video I thought the cockpit looked, not great texture wise, this looks much better. Could have been lighting too I guess l.
Light plays a part, but also I'm not zoomed in as often in this video. The textures are designed more to be viewed at the typical game view, not the close-ups I'd done.
This os the best tutorial I've ever come across for the Mirage F-1CE. Thank you for this wonderful work. I have a small problem, though. I do exactly as instructed but my navigation indicator just keeps spinning and never guves me a bearing. Can you or anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Hello Redkite. Is a video on the autopilot (including ILS and automatic landing) also planned ? Other than that, when is the next tutorial scheduled? 😇 Thanks
Don't know if you've gotten feedback but the highlighting zones in this video are really nice. So much better than wiggling the cursor over something. Really appreciate the extra effort for that
It's great!
Thanks kindly! Experimented with highlights in the past, but they are a fair bit of work! Glad you're finding them useful.
I was about to say the same!
I agree. The editing quality is extraordinary and above any DCS tutorial I have seen so far. Great job RedKite!
@@RedKiteRender your editing skills are very good, in another level. Congratulations.

@@RedKiteRender thanks!
@@RedKiteRender Really curious how A2G systems work in this plane so looking forward to that video! Good job on these videos btw 👍
@@RedKiteRender will it have the Exocet missiles? (i guess probably not) Cant wait for this thing getting released :D

Glad I could help! I'll probably be maintaining them as a feature going forwards time permitting.
I felt lost, but now that I have this TACAN video I can navigate to you ❤
I hope this will also help the module in navigating itself to us :)
No magenta line here, boyo. 🙂
You're still one of the best DCS tutorial creators out there RK 😀 Keep going!
I can't wait for this jet to come out!! Well done on this tutorial, really well done!
Sweeet! Do we have a release date yet?
The cockpit looks so good. 👌

Way more interesting than my math homework, thx bro
Nicely done! I do love me some old school navigation
I love it, no more GPS Guided Airborne Navigation Rookies in this one :)
I don’t think the spanish F1C has it but some of the F1 variants have INS (albeit without GPS recall).
@@Tetemovies4 that'd still be hot by me! Can't wait to use a drifty gyro system and crossreference black magic with what my indicators say ;)
Thank you very much for these. You are really selling the Mirage F1 to me.
YES! MORE F-1.
Good Stuff Red! :) I look forward to flying the Elder Baguette :)
Pumped for this module
Looking spectacular! Any hints on a release date?
Two weeks or when it's ready, whichever comes last.
So nice! Many thanks RedKite!
The cockpit lights are beautiful.
Best tutorials, thanks!!!
Nice video Mr Kite. Great breakdown. Thanks
The offset is really useful!!
Still a work in progress, but blimey, what a beautyful module it is.

Dude you are the best
Will there be an English cockpit for the Mirage? I noticed some labels seem to be but wasn't sure if that was just abbreviations of French words.
Amazing video, how is the schedule looking for the next one? cant wait for more!
Wonder when they are going to release this beauty 🙂
@Redkite do you know if there will be an english cockpit? Great vids!
I shall ask
The C-101 has an English version so I don't see why not.
Got back the asnwer: No decision about having an English pit has been made yet.
@@RedKiteRender thank you!
Does the hud actually looks like this or is it still work in progress ? great video as always btw
It's how the HUD looks, although admittedly I've got brightness a bit high, you can dim it if you wish.

The 'on rails' you're seeing is the 4x and 2x speed i expect, otherwise it'd of taken ages to show the approach and line up.
@@RedKiteRender Oh, thank you, that scared me! (It did look a lot better when you were stalling it in one of the previous videos.)
Cool to see the multi tool use of it for greater planning.
Any word on the tanker version?
The EE and M variants will be available some time after the early access launch which have the fuel probe.
How comes the radar display sometimes has a shade cover and sometimes not as in the takeoff video there was a cover
You can place or remove it before startup, a sun shade's not so useful at night.
@@RedKiteRender ah sweet good to know thankyou
@@RedKiteRender Maybe it should be off at night by default and on during the day by default. Something to pass on to devs?
It's like that already :)

anyone knows if at this date 2023 tacan works between planes with the Mirage? we couldn't make it work
I can't get TACAN to shut up - I turned the knob on left like you did but still the beeps and loud!
This os the best tutorial I've ever come across for the Mirage F-1CE. Thank you for this wonderful work.
I have a small problem, though. I do exactly as instructed but my navigation indicator just keeps spinning and never guves me a bearing.
Can you or anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Do you get a range? Some stations, such as a Tanker can't always give you a direction.
Question is whether it will be on blue or red, on the cold war servers? I believe that it flew on both sides .
i think blue as we get the spanish versions
The Mirage F1 was only flown by NATO and third-world countries (in the original meaning of the term, aka "non-aligned"). It was never used by any "red" air force.
Operated by Iraq. Admittedly not considered 'anti blue' until 90.
Can’t believe it might release and I still haven’t saved up enough money for a new module.
Its a shame I don't have a Facebook account to find out more about it...

I'll believe close when I see a working radar, even a screenshot of it.
