Delete allunusable captures?

Is there a quick way to delete all the unusable images from a session without scrolling through and individually selecting?

It's a bit tedious.

I'm only bothering because I want to mega stack 5 or 6 long sessions, so avaialble space is relavent and I have a few hundred unusable frames in one of the sessions.

Cross filter megastacking

I see the Dwarf3 now supports stacking sessions using different filters and wondered if anyone had any experiences or tips to share. Has alligment worked well? Did you get the results you were hoping for? Is it clear enough in the image where multiple filtered wavelengths are captured - I'm concerned about those areas becoming brown splodges.

Specifically I'm looking at combining multiple duoband sessions with astro filter sessions for the Wizard nebula. I'm intending to use the same exposure length and gain between sets.

Chinese Air Force

I'm struggling to find any Chinese air force planes around any of the airports I have - Chengdu, Shanghai, Hong Kong. I've looked at the Chinese Air Power tracker and looked around known bases / sam sites - still nothing.

Are they not transmitting, not shown on flightradar/skycards?

Any tips on locations or do I need to wait for a public air show?

Possible F16s today - New York/Jersey

If you still need an F16, they are reported to be enforcing the no fly zone over the World Cup final today, so keep an eye on the NY/NJ area.

When is a drone not a drone?

I caught a Reaper nr RAF Mildenhall, as far I understand, this is a drone but the category on special still shows no drone. Is it not a drone? is it miscategorised?

How many airports do you visit a week.

I bounced around a lot this week. 30 airports! How many do you generally visit?

u/0xibx0 — 4 months ago

Just 100m to your left

Sometimes I think the pilots do this deliberately. Just fly around skirting the radius of major airports in rare planes

How is this accuracy score calculated?

First week in the game - I've caught this model multiple times, I know some of my scores were 100% but some were just quick not-perfect captures as I'd assumed it'd show your best score here. Is this an average of all of your shots ever, or just last 5, 10? How does it work?

Victories count on profile

I'm only on day 2 so maybe I've misunderstood something, I've won two battles (lost two), my victories count on my profile is showing zero. Is this a net value (that can't drop below zero)? Is it not updated immediately, or have I misunderstood what it is?

How are you getting on with HOTAS 5?

Picked mine up today and have run a few test flights in a Cessna. So far so good. It's going to take a while to remember the button layout but overall I feel more in control. It'll take a few more flights to get a real feel and tweak sensitivity but feeling optimistic.

​

I've also revisited helis after abandoning them, I just couldn't fly them with a dualsense. I think it's better but finding I can't quite get the precision I need on the collective with the throttle slider. Trying to nail the 2ft hover - just kept going under or over. Might need to tweak senstivity just for heli. Anyone found similar?

​

Would like to hear how others are getting on, or any tweaks you've made.
