So that happened:
The F-15E has released, much to everyone's surprise, myself included.
I'm caught with my pants down having not wanted to produce content on a much older build, that had a number of issues (I'd expected a new preview build before release)
So, what's been happening behind the scenes? I'd been warming up my skills on the Hornet for Raven One again, working on a series of F-15E tutorials and a review, with a big pile of scripts written, b-reel collected. Which i had been planning to release every day in the lead up to release which, was expected, to be next month. So I'll remain on my internal schedule for video production, which sadly puts my 'pre-release' content into the post-release position as none are ready yet. The review video will most likely be scrapped now.
Hope everyone's having fun testing the Strike Eagle out! Be sure to check out Notso's videos on the official Razbam Youtube for some in depth introductions to the systems and background from a subject matter expert and Casmo for some quick-start guides in the meantime.
I'm hoping the module's had some good updates since my own build, as it felt a little unready in places. Multi-crew is still an issue i believe, so be careful on that one. Thankfully single seater operation is perfectly viable. (just make sure to hop into the back seat during startup to flick on defensive systems and the tgp!)
Keep an eye on the autopilot, hopefully it's more reliable now, and note some of the back seat display interactions are not all modelled yet, such as programming shortcuts.

Hey all!
I'm back and settled in the UK again, feeling a chunk better after a difficult start to last month. Videos will be returning soon as possible, I'm currently working on Raven One DF M03, then I'll be looking into what to cover next. Got a bit to catch up on from the last month. I'm open to suggestions on what to look at next.
Flew in DCS for the first time in ages a day ago, and there's a lot of cobwebs to shake off!
Take care.

Hi everyone, An update to the channel;
A close family member of my partner died very recently, and it's necessitated travelling away from home, a significant distance for the funeral. As such I'll be away for the next month. Which unfortunately puts pause to the Raven One Dominant Fury campaign play though I'd just committed to starting! I'd tried to get M03 done before, but that's not going to happen in time.
I've paused the Patreon billing for September, as I'll be unable to produce videos until i return afterwards.
Apologies for the lack of content over the next month! Lots of things are happening fast in my life at the moment, hopefully, largely for the better. Will be quite the adventure for me!
The channel shall resume content soon as i can after getting back.
Take Care everyone, and see you in a month!

Channel Update: Hey all, I've been taking the last week or so off for my own health, physical and mental.
I had hoped to have a Mirage F1ce video go live during that time, but it's been radio silence from the devs for the last while whilst they continue work on the module. So I'm left waiting for a new build and permission to get the next video together. I'm seeing if i can't get a shorter video, probably engine relight in the meantime.
I've also struggled with a campaign preview which I've had to scrap owing to poor DCS performance and AI issues making it unenjoyable. I've wanted to start a campaign play through in the A-10c ii, but persisting FLIR render issues have put me off the idea for the moment. So it's led to a lack of content recently, as I've needed time to recharge and escape problems both in DCS and those outside.
On more positive news, I've got the WinWing Orion 2 to review which I'm working into, along with the Authentikit Spitfire controls set, unfortunately owing to my own mistake during 3d printing part of it, that'll be a while yet.
Hope you're all doing well! Take care.
