Realistic Navigation Instruments

Realistic Navigation Instruments: for me, this is one of the most anticipated features.

Has any instructional reading about it been release other than that of the post announcing it at the beginning of the year?

That youtube video DT 20100121 NI has lost too much quality on compression. Rumor has it that a HQ version would be released. Did I miss it?

Practice mission maybe

Salute ! There are 2 practice missions in 4.10 (bf-110 and B-25) as well as instructions in the 4.10 guide documentation available alongside the patch.

I got the BBC to play music! I can hear the music in the F4U, but the DF does not seem to work. I can rotate the #2 needle 360 and the sound remanins the same???Therefore I cant tell where the station is! is it the A/C or something I am doing???

I don't think you can do that. You must tune to a YG or YE beacon and work out what direction it is by the morse code you are receiving. What you are rotating may just be the repeater compass which allows you to manually set a bearing to follow but has no automated functionality as it (unrealistically) did in 4.09.

I can't believe that the USN a/c at the end of WWII were not using NDB or ADF equiptment! being here in Pensacola I have the NMNA, and will check it out!

RDF technology was around in the 30s, hence the loops seen on many 30s twins & bigger. In WW2 the larger aircraft carried the same loops in bubble fairings and the loop was motorised and aligned automatically to give you a relative bearing. Your F4U *could* fit such a device in but would it be worth the extra weight and drag when they could just use a YE beacon? Considering the fact that they would not even put the relatively small YG beacon demodulators in the land based fighters the answer is obviously no (though perhaps that was partly to do with not letting the enemy capture the technology).

as i wrote here in another Topic that this YG was only used in the PTO .. is this correct?

just to be curious, what did the US/UK fighterarm used over europe or in the MTO - if something similar at all ................

Thank you Sokol1.

Does any one know if there is the HQ version available?
