Welcome back again to an other A-4E Tutorial! We're going to go over the ins and outs of refueling with the probe and drogue style refueling system found on the Community A-4E Skyhawk for DCS World. While I'm flying the A-4E in this video, the tips and tricks I discuss apply to ANY DCS module that uses this system of refueling. Thank you for all your continued support and feel free to share this tutorial with anyone who is having trouble getting their tip in the basket...

I'm Sport, a real world aviator and content creator with a passion for aviation and combat flight simulations. I don't post nearly as much as I want to, or should, but when I do it'll be mostly of Digital Combat Simulator (DCS), a full-fidelity combat flight sim with study-level replications of combat aircraft ranging from WWII to today. I'm always open to feedback and requests and hope you enjoy the content!

"...just go out and stick your probe into as many baskets as you can." - DCS Sport, 2022 No truer words have ever been spoken.

@SportDCS 2 года назад

Thank goodness tankers don’t get jealous…

@jvsimic 2 года назад

Wow this sucked. A lot of fuel. Out of that tanker. Great vid as always, Sport. IRL drogue and basket connections should happen at about 3 to 5 knots to make sure they lock in well, fortunately DCS doesn't care about that too much.

Excellent work on the tanker! As a friend of mine always says, "Aerial refueling never gets any easier, you just get used to it"

@Donity Год назад

I would love more tutorials on the A-4. It's the first aircraft I have (just starting DCS) and I'd love to keep using this for a while. It's hard to find good tutorials like these online.

@jyellowhammer 10 месяцев назад

By far the most difficult task on DCS is aerial refueling the Scooter. Especially with that straight probe. I wish they would have created the offset probe found on later models. Thankful for the A4! Best plane on the simulator and it was free of charge. Thanks A4 Community! Alpha Four's Forever!

I am quite certain you can get an STD by plugging too many baskets. Giggity! Great video as usual Sport. Keep waving that A-4 banner. It's a great mod.

I’m quite interested in how this process brings about getting an F-15S/mTD. Please, illustrate.

Awesome videos, they remind me of the Navy training videos I had to watch when I was in the service. Thank you for the great content, all the time to produce these videos and the professional quality. Producing a video of this quality is not easy, not to mention the exceptional flying. Please keep them coming.

@thefridge71 Год назад

Brilliant videos mate. I have a mission set in our squadron coming up in A-4s. After watching your videos I feel comfortable getting in and giving it a crack. Your videos are superbly edited. You must be a trainer/educator in real life. Your analogies like putting your foot on the back of a shopping trolley wheel to taxi are well thought and visual for different types of learners. Well done. Definitely subscribed. Hopefully you will choose another aircraft in the future to go through for the audience. I think the F16 is lacking in a comprehensive training package :) Thankyou for all the time put into these.

@MAXsenna00 Год назад

I got somethin' to say, I filled the Skyhawk today And it doesn't matter much to me as long as it's bred Love your vis Sport. The A-4 is twitchy with my setup, so it took a while to get connected, but I couldn't figure out how to will the externals correctly. Now I do! Cheers!

@MammonDurden 2 года назад

Great video man, the only suggestion I can make would be to include the control indicator menu (r-ctrl+enter) so we can see how small your inputs are. I love flying this module but I'm still learning all it's systems idiosyncrasy's so you have my sub and I look forward to your future videos.

@lordguirk 2 года назад

Your videos are top-notch, and I'm waiting patiently for the next A-4 video, as I use them religiously to learn this amazing free module. Please can I request an A/G munitions video include the Shrikes as well?

@SportDCS 2 года назад

Much appreciated! There’s so much time and effort that go into these, I often find it hard to find the time/motivation to knock them out. I’ll give it my best shot to do one this month!

@suecobandito8954 2 года назад

Good video. Couple suggestions. Form: Don't form up above and behind a/c-can't see you. Applies to all a/c. Could turn into you. Safety. Tanking: Try to refrain from flying the basket-fly the tanker and use your peripheral vision. Applies to all a/c. Stroke that throttle...

@SportDCS 2 года назад

Totally agree. A few bad habits, however I wanted to try and pick some very distinct reference points for the viewer. I should do a proper formation video one of these days…

@octobre79 2 года назад

great tutorial - it's not as hard as it seems at first! if i can get a sippy sip, anyone can.

@user-lf4bj5gx7b 4 месяца назад

Thanks for the Video but you need to include some important information in your video that makes a huge difference to your viewers. 1. Speed and ALT of the the tanker is imperative to viewers wanting to practice this at home with no set up experience. 2. What are your control curve's?

@juk-hw5lv 5 месяцев назад

Why does the FUEL TRANSFER light iluminate at idle? Does this have something to do with bleed air pressurisation?

@SportDCS 5 месяцев назад

At low engine power settings, the fuel flow rate from the main tank to the hopper, drops and triggers the light. It’s a completely normal condition.

@eatthisvr6 5 месяцев назад

is there a controls vid anywhere?

@tomaszwota1465 8 месяцев назад

That was laid just a bit too thick with the innuendos for my taste. Just a bit of feedback. Great series on A4 though.

@nachomlvsarg1724 5 месяцев назад

The truth is that it looks like an armed video. How do you keep the plane at that speed and not move too fast? I tried it many times and was able to dock for more than 3 seconds. It seems to me that they made the maneuver complicated by vice. good video greetings

@Terkariki 2 года назад

Hey, I'm having problems with raising as I don't have track IR. What the problem is basically that view up and view down basically just adjust the angle of the camera, not move it.

@SportDCS 2 года назад

If you go under “cockpit views” there should be keybind a for “move camera up/down”. Hit me up on the A-4 discord if you continue to have problems!
