Backing up DCS regularly
If you use custom mods, some might have their own folders here too. For me, it's just the folder for Scratchpad.
- Invaluable aids that you use

What are some great things that came with 2.8?
Latest update fixes it. (Only read the change log, have not tested myself)
-
Please can someone explain DCS to me.
For things like changing a radio frequency or turning on/off datalink or TACAN, it's about even. If I'm doing things like manually entering in target coordinates for JDAMs or plugging in my own flight plan on an MP server, it makes life much easier. (For the second scenario I also recommend using DCS Scratchpad.) It's also nice in that it supports various panels multiple aircraft, and the only other thing that I know of which offers even close to equivalent functionality costs several hundred dollars.

DCS: 2.7.10.18996 Open Beta
For some extra help with writing stuff down I really recommend this: https://github.com/rkusa/dcs-scratchpad

Scratchpad 0.5.0 has a new method to add coordinates from the F10 map (especially useful for VR)
You can download the update at https://github.com/rkusa/dcs-scratchpad/releases/tag/0.5.0

Made a DTC app for the F-16. If there is enough interest I'll eventually share it as a mod.
Given it's an enhancement of The Way, most likely not since the F10 map in pancake doesn't operate the same way as the one in VR as far as The Way is implemented. The only one I've had any success with is Scratchpad, which basically gives you a window you can type notes to reference to avoid having to flip back to the F10 map for coordinates.

Learning F-18 in VR
DCS Scratchpad (https://github.com/rkusa/dcs-scratchpad) is also a godsend in VR especially once you start programming JDAMs/JSOWs. The great thing about it is that, if you find it a bit cumbersome to convert chuck's guides into the DCS kneeboard format, you can just list down your own checklist on a notepad and copy paste it into the scratchpad directory.

Finally a satisfying rookie experience
Check out OpenKneeboard. You can install (VR and non-VR) and have an image for each aircraft with key performance and engine management data. I like to grab a screenshot from this YT channel.

PDF controller
OpenKneeboard might be able to solve this problem. You can bind commands to a joystick or other device, and if that doesn't work, it also has some utility executables that you could have your button box call to control it.

What are some extra peripherals you can't live without besides a hotas and trackir?
Open Kneeboard to organize multiple kneeboard tabs in VR or flatscreen (if software counts)
- VR overlays

Started creating portrait aspect ratio of Chuck's Guide Start-up for the F-18 to be able to use in VR for kneeboard. It's not perfect but works. Thoughts?
