Is this project still alive?

I'm excited about the PC9 coming to DCS. I imagine you have access to plenty of contributors, however I have over 1000 hours on the RAAF PC9 (including FAC/MIS910) mostly as a QFI and MTP IRL if you need some external input. Thanks for developing this module, should be fun.

How have I only just discovered this thread?? This is epic! Well done and good luck with this project!

Just reviving this thread with a problem I'm having with TrackIR5 on a new build 9 (Win11). After using TrackIR, I can succesfully shutdown the app and the green light goes out on the camera. However, when I try to Shutdown the computer, using "Shutdown" through the Start button, Windows "shuts down" however the PC remains running (fans, motherboard lights, etc). If the TrackIR is unplugged prior to doing this, the issue doesn't appear, so it's 100% related to the TrackIR being plugged into a USB port (no hub). I have deselected (box is unticked) "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" box in the Device Manager for the USB Root Hubs (all of them) however this appears to have no effect on the problem. Any ideas? Thanks.

I would be in the market for one of these - the custom plates on eBay are approx $66 USD (includes postage) from a guy in Australia, which is where I live. If you could produce and ship for less, then I'd be interested!

This is, without a doubt, my favourite DCS user video to date - absolutely magnificent and pays true homage to the original. Well done, this is excellent work.

Hi Hegykc, hope this message finds you well! Interested to hear how your progress is - I'm a keen customer for an F18 grip! Love you work AND your updates! All the best.

I desperately, desperately don't wanna be that guy - but is this the same as the last start-up by the same dude??? I'm honestly tryin' to stay positive, but, please, give us some info/plans?!

Hi hegykc, Any Christmas update for us? What's the game plan - will you be releasing some of these goodies, soon?? Cheers, Joe

Ah, yep, you are of course correct...

Thanks for taking the time to provide an update - interesting regarding the GST - I've never yet had to pay that on an imported item. Do you think you were just unlucky, or did Fedex collect it automatically on behalf of Customs??

This epoxy fix is a really good idea and very well executed, thanks for taking the time to post your solution here. But, I've said it before and I'll say it again - this shouldn't be necessary for a grip would cost me $369 AUD - approx $268 USD.

Thanks again for the update, DZ. I will be keen to hear how your purchase experience goes - eg shipping times, etc. I'm pretty sold on the pedals, just interested in the purchase process!!

I last heard from them on 5th Nov, basically saying Ali-express was all good - their words were "Yes, before our adjustment for ali-express shop, we don't recommend clients to order through it. But now everything is ok, our ali-express shop works normally. Please place the order through our ali-express shop." I said thanks, but haven't placed an order yet - other spending priorities have come up!

I have - Daisy told me AliExpress was good to go!? She didn't mention it sucking kangaroo balls...
