Fixed. Position of the air refueling connector.

DCS: CH-47F by Eagle Dynamics

Added. Longitudinal Cyclic Trim (LCT) functionality in automatic and manual modes. LCT reduces fuselage nose down attitude as speed increases by tilting the rotors according to airspeed between 60 and 150 knots. This allows the fuselage to remain level for cargo and troops.
Added. Differential Air Speed Hold (DASH) functionality (WIP). As you increase speed, the DASH, (a long tube in the flight controls with an actuator on each end) will increase in length. If you move the cyclic back to center, the aircraft will still maintain airspeed. This allows you to keep the cyclic in a more natural, centered position when flying at higher airspeeds.
Added. ARC-201D and ARC-220 radios (WIP).
Fixed. Picture on the refuel/rearming screen.
Fixed. Thrust control lever animations.

Fixed. Gunners desync in multicrew.
Fixed. Master caution light is not synchronized in multicrew.
Fixed. The Trimmer Reset function is no longer working.

Fixed. Local and Zulu time are equal on CDU.
Fixed. Incorrect active radio shows in the Voice Chat panel.
Fixed. Flare firing barely audible in external view.
Fixed. Engines do not start without boost pumps on.
Fixed. Ball moves in the incorrect direction when flying the ball.
Fixed. No force feedback option.
Fixed. Logbook not registering any data.
Fixed. Rotor blade and fuselage physics corrected. Pitch angle at different speeds.

DCS: Mi-24P Hind by Eagle Dynamics

Added: Mi-24P Afghanistan Weapons practice mission.

Improved: Refactor of hit detection logic for Petrovich AI to more correctly report target miss.
