- Welcome to the briefing room, pilot, and welcome to the new tutorial series - The Art of the Mirage F1. Understand some fundamental information before embarking on your training, including cockpit familiarisation and HOTAS controls.
Suggested HOTAS controls are based on the Winwing Orion 2 F-16(EX) HOTAS.

Criminally underrated channel, you should truly go up in numbers, your content is proper good.
Thank you very much! Slowly but surely getting there.
I've found a very handy keybind for the Mirage, (especially the 2000 because of all the small buttons) to have on the HOTAS is a bind (outside of DCS for head tracking) to hold the view steady to find the tiny buttons. I'm new to DCS and the Mirage is my first plane, but I find that very handy, as on the Mirages, some of those switches are so tiny (or in French) and hard to find at a glance.
Yes, I have a "headtracking pause" bind on my hotas for the exact same reason!
I don’t own the Mirage F1, nor I plan to buy one, but I still watch and like such high quality tutorial
Thank you for the compliment!
What a week. I have had the F1 sitting on my shelve for several months as the training missions were a problem and the manual was not that good. Now, this week, I find that the manual has been updated for the better, your series is about to be released and Chuck's Guide of over 500 pages has been published. With all of that, to paraphrase a famous saying, I shall become the angel of death, destroyer of all my enemies.
Looking forward to helping you along the way!
They are the legend of my youth and childhood growing up in Cape Town in the 1980's and 1990's. I have sat in F-1CZ #207 which is a shared darling with Aristide Woodley, who made the 100% correct F-1CZ colour schemes. I have played with all the switches, and controls - and can confirm they are 100% correct.
Nice! I've never had the pleasure of sitting in an F1 so I'll have to admit I'm jealous. 😀
@@reiver1-1 Its amazingly comfortable in being able to move up and down nearly 70cm - but the parachutes (which are the seat cushions) had been removed. Ouch !
I've just suscribed yestarday, as I am planning on going deeper into the F1 during Summer. You came spot on! Thx
Welcome!
For people buying this fantastic addon, it should be mandatory to look at this serie 🤣! Thank you so much
No no, thank you for your endorsement and support!
I am very new to DCS, and right off purchased both Mirages. They're complex little buggers, but I love them. Your channel has been a great help, especially with the EE, as it's hard to find much on that model specifically elsewhere. Thanks!
Thank you! Hopefully I'll get some more videos out soon.
You deserve a lot more of subs. Keep going !
Thank you! Let everybody know! 🤣
I agree ! Very happy to have found this channel !
Hi Reiver,
After much consideration I’ve decided to start my DCS journey with the F1 as my first module. I still need to wait to buy a PC so I can play DCS, but the research of the available modules is already half the fun!
I would like to thank you for your amazing series on the F1, I’ve watched them all, some even a couple of times. Your videos are very relaxing to watch after a hard day of work! Your calm explanation, sometimes combined with clear drawings works very well, you have a talent for these kind of videos!
I look forward to the rest of the series, you’ve earned yourself a new subscriber!
I admire your courage in selecting the F1 as your first aircraft; she isn't the easiest to handle but the it is well modelled and her systems are interesting. Good luck and thank you for the feedback!
Good choice, its a very complete module that gives you 4 very unique variants in a single module. I got it last week and I can´t stop flying it. And that´s only flying the CE, can´t wait for the F1M.
Haha I wanted to start with a non-FBW module. I love a bit of character, it should extremely dangerous to myself and everyone around me 😅
@@jero-se9hn I´d dare say you could not have made a better purchase, everything you learn on it you will carry on to other planes. Its a very complete module. Did you try the new Flight Model changes on yesterday patch? its even nicer to fly now.
Great tutorials!
Thanks!
great video.
Thanks!
Nice jet but how do u plan fuel there are no figures anywhere that i can find.
Nice vid
Is your Mirage 2000 series finished? I was looking forward to the laser GBUs.
Absolutely not! Bomb tutorials are on their way! We still have plenty to cover in the 2000C.
@@reiver1-1 Thank You.
only reason not to sub is due to the soft rock music in the background. i found it distracting while trying to learn.
Do you have to map all new controls for every variant of the mirage
Unfortunately yes, which can take some time.
Is F1 M similar or more advanced (technology wise) than M2000C?
In terms of cockpit functionality, I'd say more advanced. We can expect MFDs! #wakeupandsmellthe90s 😁
@@reiver1-1 Fascinating. Looks like F1 is a whole package of goodies ranging from coldwar to modern era.
This is a great video, thank you. But please know that ‘airframe’ isn’t a more sophisticated way of saying ‘aircraft’. It means the structure of the airplane MINUS the engine. It makes no sense when used in the way you have employed, e.g. a substitute for ‘aircraft’. I know the DCS community loves to avoid at all costs using the word plane (fixed wing), helicopter (rotorcraft) or engine (powerplant). But they all sound super cringe when they are grammatically incorrect.
Thank you, I'm aware of what it means. It's a habit picked up from an aircraft maintenance technician I know who uses the terms interchangeably, especially if the topic of discussion isn't exclusively engine-related.
I mean I do refer to it as an aircraft several times :D
