  1. What we do to get climb speed is after take usually set ITT 750 and pitch for 200 knots. Gear down below 200, flaps below 190. At cruise we usually set an ITT, depends on the location what it is. I am not used to flying full throttle at cruise. Here is an example of one of my recent sorties, I created timestamps so you can quickly browse to the desired location. Hope it helps. Please note this is a training sortie where I am learning new things and also screw up here and there.
  2. Yeah I know what it looks like and how it works, I have been using the CM3 for over a year. I am having difficulty to consistently press aft or down on it, sometimes loosing grip on it, like almost pushing in between down and aft. My TM throttle's button was not giving me this issue as it was easier to feel its orientation. I think with a small modification of the shape of the hat it would limit my errors.
  3. My main issue is with the 5-way pyramid looking hat switch that is controlled by the thumb and has that rotary around it. I have it configured as my radio switch and can't reliably push down or aft when having the throttle in various positions or even while moving it, because I can not clearly tell its directions just by feeling it. If there would be a 3d printed mod out there that would give a better feel of the switch and its directions(more like the TM warthog radio button) that would make my life so much easier and my radio PTT/release errors much less frequent.
  4. If you like I recorded the Iron Flag Campaign, which was really nice story driven way of getting familiar with a lot of the systems. Since then I am in a A-10 training pipeline with the 476th vFS and post all my sorties online as well. Hope it helps. It is a great airframe ans so much to learn!
  5. Yeah would be nice!
  6. During my trainings and sorties I configure IFF, even though parts are not simulated.
  7. Upgrading to Windows 11 or not? I am on the fence about upgrading. My current W10 setup is stable and the UI is just how I like it at the moment. I read mixed messages about upgrading the OS. Probably will stay on W10 unless there will be a clear performance improvement.
  8. I tried it a couple of weeks ago but was having some trouble getting it to work, I gave up quite quickly. What are the steps you took to switch back and forth between OpenXR and SteamVR?
  9. Okay got it. I thought it could be off abd only kick in when needed. Will make a small video showing the stability with framerate lock adjustments. Am not ble to keep FPS above 55 because of CPU. Will make a recording to demonstrate.
  10. Open-XR Toolkit tweaks; FPS Lock - As per advice of @edmuss I locked the FPS in OpenXR to 55. This gives a lot of stability when looking at the in-game status bars. The green and white lines calm down. I do get a little bit of ghosting, but I already got used to that. Reprojection auto - I am still trying to figure out having reprojection on auto and to have it kick in when it needs to kick in. With reprojection on auto it is not yet clear for me when the actual reprojection kicks in. OBS Performance impact Since I always have OBS (recording) on when flying, the performance of OBS might also be a factor. When I was using a 3080 I clearly had an FPS impact when turning OBS ON/OFF. I changed my OBS recording to AV1 encoding and am tweaking my encoding settings at the moment, trying to see if I can get 4k recording going on without buffer issues or frame loss issues. Changing the encoder seems to have lowered my CPU usage a bit. Not yet clear if this a factor for DCS with my 4090. Will test a bit more and get some numbers in here soon. Will also add my OBS settings to this thread.
  11. Ahh nice. The hog remains my airframe of choice for the foreseable future. Will jump back into using csv's and update my benchmark table when I return. I am tinkering with anti-aliasing at the moment trying to get the best clarity, hoping I can stay off reprojection. The bottleneck is the CPU at the moment.
  12. Yes same here. I couldn't really tell the difference. I guess these stats are still from your fpsVR period? I did not start using csv exports via OXR yet, did you?
  13. I tried downgrading a couple of times and mostly can't take the flourescent light flickering effect I see on light areas in the corner of my eyes, like the clear sky. Does that effect diminish over time?
  14. I wish fpsVR was working, so I could get some hard data via a csv file. I know there is a functionality available but haven't found the time to tinker with it yet. Will see if I can get my trackfile going again so I get some hard data. My FPS depends on where I am and what our server is doing and what other pilots are doing. When on the ground on our NTTR MP server I get wishy washy performance, sometimes 60-70, but it can also drop down to 30-ish. That's because I am CPU-bound all the time nowadays. In the air the same thing. When on one of our ranges FPS drops to 40's and when just enroute I get great performance, because low CPU. I haven't done many furballing because I mainly fly the hog and am practicing A2G things in our training pipeline.
