DCS: AH-64D | Launch Day Questions

With the release of the DCS: AH-64D, I've seen a list of common questions. Although the bulk of these have been covered in earlier videos, I thought I'd make a separate one to address them all in one place.

In this video I'll touch on:

- Setting up the laser
- LOAL HI and LO attacks
- Force Trim Release (FTR)
- George Command Switch

Have fun!

Aw Waggs you sound tired my friend. You guys have done such an amazing job with this module, plus all the extra support your now giving out like this video. Go have a beer and a well deserved rest my man!

[ghosteagle]

Thank you for providing all these videos before and right after release for us! Keep up the great work!

Hey Wags! You were absolutely right - the Apache was well worth the wait! It's just amazing! Since the early days of Lock on and Black Shark I was dreaming of an Apache sim of this quality. Thank you all at ED for making this dream come true! Keep up the fantastic work, the honest communication and the way you're doing the preview videos to cover the time until release. Cheers!

Enjoying it??? I've crashed half a dozen times, spent hours mapping keys and adjusting deadzones, watched a dozen videos and read entirely too much.







No man I'm loving it.

Pass on thanks to all the team on a fantastic day 1 release Matt. Truly a product to be proud of and a new standard out the gate (I own f18, f14, f16&A10). Love the flight model, this things a beast!

Hands down the most complex and immersive simulator in existence today. I am totally loving the Apache!! Fantastic job

Fyi guys, starting in hot apache's with multicrew tends to make everything desync a lot more. Really recommend starting cold if your doing multicrew.

Thank You Matt for this and all your tutorials You have done for The Apache and other aircraft.My Apache launch Day went much more smoothly because of your helpful videos. I'm having a incredible experience with this Phenomenal Module.Cheers to You and All The DCS Team for your hard work and efforts. DCS has set a new High Standard in The Simulation World.

Finally got to hop in it today. I love it! And the visual clarity in the cockpit in VR is nice, well done gentlemen!

[fazzz]

Great work Wags and the ED team. Flying in VR at night is trippy with the one eye night vision. Got a shock when I looked down with night vision and could see through floor! Amazing.

I'm happy to see you are still having some issues remembering it all. Makes me feel better.

[Tigerclaw]

I love that Module so much. Thank you all the guys for your hard work.

[erictuvell]

You guys really knocked this one out of the park. One day in and it’s already my favorite module. Thank you for all the hard work your entire team put into this masterpiece.

[Simselli]

Thanks for all the work ED has put into the AH-64D, and the dedication in putting out a quick recap ! to assist the leaning curve.

[Machinegun]

Thanks Wags for video. Really like this format of answering peoples problems. Love the module. Tell everyone at ED they did a great job!!

[RogerRabbit]

Wags, I am so happy you did a launch day questions video. we do the same in our company (for staff. travel industry) and it is so valuable. thank you

[sergek]

Great job on the module as usual Wags! Also thank you for this video, I feel like the more simple explanation helps so much in the beginning, then we can always rewatch the really good detailed videos you already made to learn the more in-depth features. Kudos to you and team on another great module!

[lukejordan]

gotta say, I really appreciate all these tutorials coming out for such a complex aircraft.
