Authentic electrical system
Complete hydraulic and pneumatic system

What isn't working right now in Early Access?

See the end of this FAQ for a current known issues list.

How long will the discount last?

Once the product goes into early access, the price will go back to full price.

Why is the pitch so twitchy?

There is a great video about the Spitfire found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gs2m-xlyK7o

In general, the same principles apply to the Mosquito, big surfaces and most users have a joystick much shorter than the real thing. Due to the way the Mosquito control column is constructed, you may find that you need a larger curve on the pitch axis tuning than you need on the roll axis.

Where is the guide?

You can find it in your \Mods\aircraft\MosquitoFBMkVI\Doc folder. This document will continue to grow.

Why do the engines stall with light negative g?

The carburetors on this aircraft are not great - if you fly with too much negative or zero g it can really affect the fuel flow. Be mindful of this as it can get you in a bad place if done at the wrong time. This will be tuned in future updates.

Why are my controls unresponsive?

Make sure that you do not have Game Flight Mode enabled in Options/Gameplay.

Why does the pitch axis not move fully forwards/backwards in flight?

The Mosquito has very large control forces on the pitch axis due to airflow, and you will have reduced control column movement as speed increases.

Why does only one crew member bailout?

When you issue the bailout command, only the crewmember you are playing as will bailout. You can press F1 twice, and return to control the second crew member. The navigator only has limited control of the aircraft, so you may want to hit CTRL-E again and vacate the cockpit rapidly.

Are there any instructional videos?

Yes, you can find some here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHgijhjZxUg&list=PL56M8zQ0bxUPDYc5O9yFmewanpR3jILF-

I can’t use some controls?

Some controls need to be accessed from the Navigator/Observer Seat -, you can switch to this seat by pressing ‘2’ on your keyboard, and switch back by pressing ‘1’. Make sure to check out the tutorial missions which explain all of this.
Also, the navigator can not access controls on the pilot’s side of the aircraft.

Is the Damage Model enabled, and is it using the new Damage model?

Yes, the new Damage Model is enabled, but because it is early access there could be some tuning that needs to be done. As well, the Mosquito is the first module using our new dynamic bullet hole tech. It's very early in the development of this, so the module uses this and our standard decal system. We will have more info on this in the future.

Is Multi-Crew available?

Yes, this is available, and still being tuned for Early Access.

Is there AI like Petrovich?

This is planned for later on in Early Access

When will the template be released?

Template will be released at full release

Steam price is currently different?

Please note we are waiting for steam to adjust the price for early access
Price will be $49.99 once changed which includes the early access discount


Known Issue List:
- Erroneous fuel leak messages in the briefing at the start of a mission.

- Wing bombs will not release from aircraft that start from the ground in multiplayer.
- Some parts may not visually separate from the aircraft when damaged.
- The damage visuals are still a WIP
- Overhead emergency exit hatch is not yet functional
- Radio navigation equipment is WIP
- The onset of fuel starvation on negative g will be further tuned.
- The overheating model is still a WIP, as such you may see cues associated with overheating when this is not the case.
- Navigation lights can show below the wing when spectating other aircraft.
- Possible to see a missing texture on landing gear indicator lights.
- Game crash when Client mosquito is set to late activated.
- Identification lights are displayed incorrectly
- Wheel chocks are functional, but they are not visible

We hope you enjoy the Mosquito and thank you for your passion and support

A to s tím WW2 assets packem je teda taky vypečené, člověk si teda koupí za dva litry mosquito plus mapu a ještě aby se to dalo hrát, tak k tomu potřebuješ za 700 DLC ? Huh...

Nejhorší je, ale že se to chová (aspoň mě) jako simulátor ponorky a ne letadla.

Nebo to prostě nemá cenu hrát, když nemáte pedály a plynovku ? I když chci jen arcade ?

Ono to je ARK.
Z letiště Kobulety jsem poslouchal a zaměřoval bližné a dálné na všech letištích kolem a k tomu Nalchik za kopečkama.
Rádiový stín kopců nikdy moc nefungoval, navíc tady jde o dlouhé vlny a ty se nešíří jen na přímou viditelnost.

Připojil jsem si warthoga a teď i když jsem si ty tlačítka nastavil tak mi to paradoxně přestalo střílet.

Má to naprosto zásadní vliv, celé to je založeno na vlastnostech té antény. Z určitého směru ta anténa vůbec nezachytí signál.

trochu zjednodušeně:

Pokud budeš s Mosquitem stát na dráze a budeš mít před sebou (za sebou) maják (bližnou nebo dálnou). A Loop anténu budeš mít v defaultní pozici (athwartship - černá nula na stupnici ve směru letu, nebo 180).
Při Aural D/F neuslyšíš nic. Loop anténa je v minimu a máš smůlu. Jakmile začneš točit anténou (nebo letadlem) začneš slyšet signál vysílaný majákem. Ten signál bude nesilnější pokud bude maják na tvé 3. nebo 9. hodině, v případě otáčení antény bude na červené stupnici 0 nebo 180 natočených po směru letu.

U visual D/F to porovnává (zpracovává) signály z loop a vertical antény. Vertical-všesměrová anténa.
Pokud nemáš nic z loop antény, viz pozice letadla nahoře, ručičky ukazujou symetricky. Ale jakmile začne něco přicházet z loop antény, je to indikováno na dvojručičkovém ukazateli jako odchylka.
Jo tohle má dost nepříjemný problém, když jsi nasměrován na maják (nebo anténa) nevíš jestli letíš k (od) majáku nebo jsi ztratil signál ...


Ne ten loop, ale ta loop anténa! To je druh antény s určitými vlastnostmi, které využíváme.
