Son of a tomcat…guess I need to download the open beta. Damn. Anyway to go from normal to beta with out a huge redownload?
I recommend @SkateZilla’s tool, but there is also a command line way to do it.
…we have it here… somewhere…

I saw the keybindings for it. You can fast forward and rewind 
Excellent news gentlemen. I have seen the thread about his updater I’ll give it a go when I get home.
Thank you!

Quick, pre-order it…
I think @Wes already confirmed the Steam beta branch contains it, and the download is very quick via Steam.

She sure likes to loft!
Got the hang of these landings now. You don’t put the bracket on the vector, but on the waterline instead.
much much better.

Oh dammit my backup joystick just died it seems.
It spikes horribly to full deflection, which is not something you want to do at mach 2 in a Tomcat, obviously.
I still tried the plane for a few minutes. Nicely done, and even performing OK on my low spec laptop it seems.
And man that plane loves to climb.

Steam is GO and FAST. Just like the Tomcat!
Yeah, wish there was a way to unify it like 1CGS did with Il-2 and Steam. Now I can DL the Il-2 patches there very fast but still buy on their site or Steam.
Wish we could do the same with DCS.
Can anyone advise if there is a “default” control layout made for the HOTAS Warthog? (Both seats) or is it going to have to be an all-manual configuration?
Holy F does this thing love to fly! it’s fast! it’s complicated! it’s temperamental. I’m in love. Head over heels.
It also loves me, look what I did after the carrier takeoff tutorial:
#proud!
No idea what wire I caught, and jester told me ‘bolter bolter bolter’ after the fact, so it cant have been pretty but what the hey. I did it. I put it on the deck without breaking it, learning it or even knowing any procedure. Just flew it. 
It is preconfigured, but I had to do quite a bit of tweaking to get it right. You have plenty spare buttons so that’s cool.
