Correction on F-18 takeoff trim for the carrier-
Below 44,000 gross weight = stab trim 16 degrees (MIL or burners)
45,000 to 48,000 gross weight = stab trim 17 degrees (MIL or burners)
49,000 and above = stab trim 19 degrees (Burners required)
should say 44,000 to 48,0000 yeh ? or below 45,000 16deg - what if its 44,500 ^_^
@@leewalton7403 This is directly out of NATOPS, Section III-8-5 Figure 8-1 for reference.
Cap as you have access clearly, info on the F14, does it even work?
@@grimreapers The moment you realize even official military documents aren't perfect.
@@CakePrincessCelestia I think they're rounding to the next 1000s.
The two white shirts on the cat are called troubleshooter/final checkers they belong to the squadron of the aircraft, usually one guy from each maintenance dept . Attached to what is called the line shack. Yellow and green shirt guys are flight deck crew who belong to the ships company. I was a final checker for EA6B's on Ranger and Enterprise back in the 80's. Coolest job I ever had. Nothing like a F-14 in full AB 20 feet from you. The A6's and EA6B's were so loud on launch you could feel your skull rattling in your head.
thx
I wondered what those guys were called nice input.
Were you stationed at NAS Whidbey Island?
@@jd.3493 Yep VAQ 137 Rooks. Did another tour in VS 37 Sawbucks down at north island in San Diego two west pacs on Ranger and Enterprise back in early 80's. Retried from the Boeing company 8 months ago. Coolest job I ever did was final checker launching planes of the flight deck:-)
@@Retr0racin I was ships company (AIMD) on the Enterprise (1985 to 1987). Great ship.
Cap, quite you nearly gave me a heart attack with this "just been released" rubbish! Think of those in harm's way between me and my PC when you say "just been released"! Think of the children Cap!
Same here mate, was watching it on TV and I've catapulted out of bed running to the PC firing up DCS only to notice that there is no carrier lol.. :)
I did the same thing and hop on DCS and find out its not there, Then went and reread the title. :(
Yup I did the exact same thing
Ok ok ok
Just released for us to break
Have you checked it in the Open Beta or the Stable Release version of DCS? I think Cap and the GR guys are playing on the Open Beta only...
You didn't get the plane directors signals quite right. Watch Wags' video again and watch how he moves the plane depending on the signal given. When he gives you "straight forward" signal, it doesn't mean to go towards him, it literally means to drive the jet straight, no matter what aspect that is compared to him. so if he is 10 degrees to the left of your nose and he tells you to go "straight", literally do that, go straight, not towards him. All will be clear if you watch Wags' video on this again
Oh, my god, I LOVED the animated deck crew. =D And I really hope ED increased the Air Traffic Control AI and the Radio Communications with it.
But what I really REALLY hope the most is that they implement this new Deck Crew system, combined with the ATC improved AI for the regular Air Bases. Would it be too much to ask for? I mean, a man can dream, right? Replicate the Deck Crew into a Ground Crew System for the Air Bases and Airports.
This would bring SO MUCH life into the ghostly, empty, dark and lifeless Airports in DCS. It's one of my top 5 items I've always wanted to see improved in DCS ever since I started playing it, way back since 2013-2014...
16-19° trim for carrier take-off depending on weight, then the caution will go away, 12° is for land departures
Etirion yep 12 is not enough, with ordenance you‘ll probably get your plane wet lol
@@leo666owsla6 More than a bit wet lol
GOD you scared me when you said 'just been released', I've never run to my PC as fast as I just did.
yea, i nearly sh*t myself.. and no it wasnt released, SuperCap probably got a tester-version.
Me too...fired up DCS so fast and went to modules...nope...that'll teach me to not read the video description :D
Yep, same here. My heart stopped beating for a moment...
I bought it back in April when it was originally supposed to release April 11th.
So there is no confusion this is a press preview. Public release is planned for the 20th of May. thank you
BIGNEWY gotcha!! :)
Next open beta patch is planned for the 20th and will include the super carrier
@@BIGNEWY it isn't released. What about bummer. Ban the vid.
Wow who would have thought and inaccurate grim reapers video! ;)
Wow, my GPU better start lifting weights!
I ram it on a 2080 Ti and then upgraded to a 3090.
The model men aren’t taxing on the GPU
@@PassportBrosBusinessClass I still have the 2080 TI and have no flight deck glitches, even in VR. If there are glitches, I just dial the settings down a bit. After that, it runs like butter. Never had any problems on the carrier though, only a few in-flight
Really cool video! Can't wait for more (some night ops with those floodlights, please :)
One thing I'd like to see for night launches is the signal from the pilot to launch - exterior lights on. Then again, I saw that flight deck crew wands were recently introduced, so maybe "lights on" has too. I'll have to check.
you could of put pre release , raised my hopes badly here :(
Copy. Done
PhantomMark no way! I just rushed to buy it :(
I just discovered that I can successfully take off from the carrier in DCS in the F/A-18C without the catapult. I just taxi to the very rear of the carrier. Hold my toe brakes down all the way. Go full flaps. Then go max power with afterburner. Once the brakes can’t hold back the plane any longer, I release the brakes and roll down the center of the carrier along the longest axis of the carrier. As long as the F/A-18C total weight is under around 35,000 pounds or so, I reach 150 knots IAS right at the end of carrier and the plane doesn’t even dip below the level of carrier deck once I run out of runway.
Whenever I’m practicing carrier landings in single player, after a successful landing, I’ve found that it’s a a lot faster to just taxi to rear of the carrier and take off without the catapult, rather than having to line up and hook up to the catapult and go thru all of the catapult launch procedures with the ground crew.
But, isn't that what makes it so much more fun? 😅
Good stuff!
Dang, I'm getting into DCS at the right time. Spending the last week figuring out the controls. I have a bit of advantage thanks to Falcon 4 SP3 years ago. But I'm only just messing with F18 instrument navigation and landing. Going to be a bit before I can play with a carrier.
And good documentation on sustainable turns for F-18? I'm finding F16 15, and others. But nothing good on the 18. And each map's magnetic compass drift? Messed me up doing Tacan landing last night.
I'm primary focussing in Saber, 18, and 16. I'll probably get the basic 15 and A10, but I don't want to spread myself to thin. Jack of all trades, master at none.
LOL, Yeah, I spread myself thin two months ago when I bought the F-14, F-16, M2000C, AV-8B, AJS-37, F-5E Tiger II, and FW-190 A-8; Well worth it though they had a huge sale back in March on Steam. The A-10C is definitely worth it the tutorials are excellent and it's a helluva fun plane to fly plus...BRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTT!!!!
Oh when YOU guys have it, I know for sure it is really REALLY coming soon. I dare say... two more weeks?
20th of May according BigNewy
That is the planned date. "Planned". Not "promised" or "guaranteed". Sorry, I had to add that. People have a bad habit of grabbing any date given and then running away with it only to bash ED and dissapoint themselves later.
You can try it in Open Beta
Any clues how I can get those sparks away which are always on the cat and Launchbar (I hope you inow what I mean) when I take off from the carrier?
Nice and exciting. Pls check if the "set take off trim" button actually will reflect a carrier take off. Or you need to set trim manually.
Nice job on the explanation on the video I forgot to Salute and that explains why I couldn't launch.
tanks Grim
Question; I have always heard people say a Serbian number of degrees of trim for the hornet. But where do I find this number
Cap if I’m not mistaken that was the Cat 1, 1-4 from starboard to port side of the ship. Great vid by the way! Hoping that we can see in our homes soon also! ;)
thx
Mr Cap, me previously being a cat spotter on the USS John C Stennis 2001-2003, when the yellow shirt waves both arms it means for you to go forward , not turn towards him.
Thanks EJQ!
That S-3 was cool to look at
U got me excited it's released. Then read description. Damn you lol
"Cocky pants." haha
I was wondering WHO is in that glassed in area @ 4:47 when all the guys on deck are running the show ???? Thanks
Cap, you may want to clear that master caution before you take off into the wild blue yonder. It's probably saying "Careful about teasing rabid DCS fans!". Nice tutorial, though, mostly the same as the Wags video, but the departure parameters are great info and very helpful. Thanks.
Thx rgr
Are mishaps possible? For instance what happens if you don't stop but instead keep powering forward when the guy tells you to stop or something like that.
You just run them over but they don't die. At least at the moment.
Since everything looks exactly the same as the Stennis. Size and texture, just with a few personnel. I'm most excited for the under-deck part, increased spawn points, and hopefully multiplayer has performance and network improvements. But none of those things are being shown or talked about. So I'm a tad bit worried.
Texture is better in my opinion, but yeah, it feels like lots of things will be missing on release (no surprise, it's an early access after all). I really want to see these elevators work.
seriously just spent 30min looking for the update "just been released" bah
Hey, just wondering how you could contact the carrier tower while on the boat itself since I'm having some trouble with that. If you can help I'd really appreciate it, thanks.
im new to dcs and was wondering how do you get he people on the carrier,when i did it there was no one
I am SUPER excited for this module. I really like the way ED has engaged with content creators prior to release. really helps to BUILD THE HYPE!!!!!
This is a preview release of the Supercarrier module. It is coming soon!
Hi all, we are planning our next open beta patch for the 20th of May, it will include the super carrier. Thank you.
BIGNEWY you guys went all in with the date! Hope you win!!
BIGNEWY will my p47 be coming with that update as well? :) thanks for the hard work.
@@joec4106 not yet for the Jug, but we hope to have news soon. :)
BIGNEWY thanks for the reply back. Stay safe my friend.
Hi cap, could you do a video on the most efficient SEAD aircraft? Maybe set up an enemy air base with Sam sites and AAA and then send in different SEAD capable aircraft and see which one clears it fastest and with least damage?
The su-25t carries the most (6 in total) downside is your slow and vulnerable to the long range SAMs. The the 18 and jf-17 both can carry 4 missiles. The 18s are the furthest reaching. Then you have the harrier which can carry 4 that are extremely short range (they're aim9s with a radiation seaker head)
@@ionator2000ist You know SEAD doesnt just involve shooting anti-radiation missiles right? Shoot a harm, take out the search radar, reducing their engagement range, take the rest out with JDAMs or JSOWs. 2 Harms + 4x GBU-38s is my preferred loadout.
@@Ironwulf2000 I'm very aware of that. Though when going against an actually good defended I would rather use the 4 harms. Cause I get some standoff distance. Those new Chinese destroyers missiles are actually will engage you at around 40ish miles at angels 30
@@Ironwulf2000 With multiple radars your loadout is a bit weak if your're playing without other planes doing SEAD. With 2 or 3 three layers of defense (say an SA-10 protected by some Buks and one or two short range radars, or maybe Tunguska), you definitely need a lot more anti-radiations. Cause these little bastards will most likely destroy half of your anti-radiation missiles.
There's no perfect loadout, but alone, the Su-25 and it's 6 missiles is probably the best when you have to deal with several layers.
So am I the only one who dosnt know how to place a aircraft on the elevators/parking slots on the carrier, everytime I start it puts me in front of the elevator.
Great video, my question is how do you have an animated pilot in the seat?
Khaki pants represents chief or officer not just shooters
That is mil power he pumps his arms up and down for after burner I don’t think it’s animated but it’s a different signal for mil power and after burner
By the way!! Waiting for more SC, Cat 3 plz
Awesomeness!!!
One nitpick - I know you have nothing to do with the development, but I noticed the catapult director never hands off control to the shooter by saluting and pointing to him. Hopefully, they fix this.
thx
Oooh.
Is all that activity standard (aka planes inbound and outbound) or is that because you have set up a scenario in the ME? I always get excited by videos only to end up on an empty carrier with nothing going on. very boring. Thanx for the great review
You add them in with mission editor.
@@grimreapers Thanks, That would make an excellent tutorial. How to set up an active environment for practice on the SC...
How about the fps in the suoer carrier?
seems good so far.
Is it compulsory for everyone to have supercarrier in multiplayer??
Or is it possible that a single guy can host it and other guys can play with it,,
nope infortunatly the other guys will see the supercarrier but they will not be able tointerract with it, either takeoff or land
Everyone must have it to use the features of supercarrier, I believe, however the mission will still run ok if you do not have it.... it will just not show the deck crew etc.
What's the plane taking off next to cap as he gets aligned?
Lockheed S-3 Viking, ASW aircraft
Lucky cap getting EA to super carrier
Is this only F18 or with supercarrier ?
Just love they have an active flight deck crew now.
will the Super Carrier module be compatible with the F-14B Tomcat??
Covered here: czcams.com/video/ZQjGTtygCUw/video.html
@@grimreapers thanks CAP
'Pre-release' FML, Here i am wondering why i couldn't find it in my modules
After launch and you take control you should bank to the right slightly....realistically.
WHY DO THEY START YOU with enough space to steer to the shooter, but not me?
They start me so close to the shooter, I can’t maneuver to the launcher.
I don't have green guys. My carrier is deserted. I think the crew are hung over at the port, they missed the departure.
If the pilot was Italian he would have got out and bashed that yellow shirt for the "Fungulo" gesture.
Come on ED!!! Vapor from the catapults still goes through the JBDs!!!! A true super carrier wouldn't have that, it kills immersion.
Oh this was released? never heard.
Not released yet, It's coming soon.
[GR] Ripcord do you know when?
He probably knows but for sure he’ll not tell!
After the sales are finished for sure
Outstanding. So much better than the Battlefield 3 launch sequence.
Theres a slight difference between BF3 and DCS
has just been released? what?
Carkey pants. 😂
I wish we would at least get a carrier with correct dimensions without the need of buying one lol
You lucky rascal you...
what are car key pants
Glad to see that you are finally getting preview code.
You have worked hard and deserve this GR.
thx Sir
Hello, Is there a barricade for emergency landings??
Not yet I don't think.
How do you "see" your pilot and not just an empty seat?
I think it's RCTRL+P or V? something similar
They don't touch the stick during launch in the real jet till they're airborne.
How many planes can we fit on it
experimenting tonight
@@grimreapers nice....
This isn't in the F18 tutorial playlist :C
Thanks Pete will fix.
Did you just said It's been released
Press release.
Is it released?
Omg yes
Yes cap says it’s just been released!
It's here?! (*Scrambles to PC*)
So whens this available for us
Twwwoooooo weeeekkkksss
Actually next week I think
@@DoveEnigma13 lol if I hear 2 weeks again 😅 thanks tho hopefully next week been soon long
it's easy yet very hard to learn the workings of the f-18.
Gosh, Reapers flying NATOPS! Didn't see that coming! Hoggits will start to love you !! 🤣 This is what happens when I'm not on stream to keep you right !
lol Arty
OMG you guys got it? No you didn't .... yes you did, YES YOU DID!
lols xx
Is the carrier out yet for real
I almost left work and went home because you said the carrier is released
𝕎𝕙𝕠 𝕚𝕤 𝕒𝕤 𝕖𝕩𝕔𝕚𝕥𝕖𝕕 𝕒𝕤 𝕞𝕖?
I just lost my carrier qualification because of that front.
Your font.
I know they've said they are working on it, but I'm not buying it until the F-14B works with it. No matter how cool the new carrier looks.
works fine got vid coming tonight on it
@@grimreapers Right... Where's my credit card?
reaping
Fake news! It has not just been released! Spent an hr trying to figure out why I couldn't download it! 🤦🏻♂️
