  1. hi, did you switch on steam to the Beta Option?  

    the AH-64 shows there. not in the 'stable' normal game playable.

    Other one: go to the Store Page in Steam for DCS and look in 'content for this game' 

    check to see in the module for the apache is listed as owned (see the small blue rectangles on the left side by the module name)

  2. dont worry.. this is why we put on helmets... so we dont hurt ourselves

     

    I couldnt make the engine levers move to idle with the mouse (just my first connection, fooling around)... and ended up in the hangar

  3. sir, i just will find out in a bit, obviously.

    its just a thing in my mind... plug and play, USB, buttons to set in game etc.. its a few months away... arduino, probably with a shield extension, and maybe, the potentiometers and the 3 posit knob,   the works...   Trust me, Im an engineer LOL

     

    Edit: this is getting so much more interesting... was watching a video by a cockpit builder and he mentioned that if you have a covered switch, you have to simulate the lid opening in the panel... so.. a bit more of CAD time...  the lid opening will click a microswitch or miniature push button, so the program will display the toggle switch...

  4. im thinking of making a peripheral for this CMWS (no screen) and probably the fire extinguishers... would any of you would be interested in one (might involve 3D printing, Arduino and the like, would be shipped assembled completely.... no idea if feasible or final price... just trying to decide if you guys would be interested.

    hi, i don't know what am doing wrong.

    i have CH Pro Throttle, with this setting (no curves).

    with 100% travel, min on the carrier is 60% with Forrestal on catapult, but full throttle goes to 94% instead of 100%   this makes me go swimming 

     

    Love the scoter will try to invest quality time with it... if possible getting the Syria Map...

    Edit:  I did click on the slider and played a bit with the curve, I get 99% thrust now... (I still swim from time to time, all the snake eyes and zunis are heavy...) 🙂

    Other than the kneeboard in the mod, I found the following PDFs

    A-4E-C Normal Procedures

    DCS Community A-4E-C Community Guide

    A4 Natops Pocket Check list (74 pgs)

    A4 Natops flight manual (649 pgs)

     

    anyone interested PM for a file share

    I just found this topic.  If yall can design the mechanisms, I can design the electronics and write the firmware.  Have it all look like a joystick.  I have several 3d printers, a laser cutter, and a CNC mill.  I also have the equipment to fabricate custom circuit boards.  I usually use arduinos for simple projects, but when the I/O count starts getting really high, I can make custom circuit boards.  The most complicated sim rig I've ever built had 18 analog signals and 192 switches, buttons, and LEDs.

    hi... looking in youtube... i found this

    maybe a model for Apaches can be done, and instructions even for us non electrical Engrs done... (Im a pure old, very old, fashioned Mech Eng... so i can learn a couple tricks)

    hi..

     

    First, Im running DCS world from steam, with A-10C, KA-50 and CA modules installed and tuning but haven't really started on it, I have all the goodies CH> fighter stick, rudder, throttle, a Logitech G 13 and G 110 keyboards and even TIR4 and Saitek throttle quadrant.. talk about power consumption and cables galore...

     

     

     

    I have a bit of a problem, I have two dissimilar monitors, a 1280 x 1024 on the left and a 1920 x 1080 on the right, this is the primary. I run 64bit win7 home edition.

     

    unfortunately, the primary has a slight electric board damage (it is a BENQ 22) that makes it seem as a PNP generic monitor, when I try to move them or switch the cables my video card does not recognize it - yes drivers are up to date...

     

    I want to use the android app for A-10 monitors but have been in problem with this as the left monitor as primary gives me a bit of trouble to get used to... got myself a nexus 7 for it..

     

    so heres my problem...

     

    1-where exactly is the monitor.lua that I should change to use the 2 monitors that corresponds to the A-10?

     

    2-does anyone has a changed file with the two MFD and the UPC on the 4:3 monitor on the left and the main on the 16:9?

     

    3-help would be welcome, I have two days off, but have to take care of my 2.5 yr old boy... so I cannot devote the time to experimentation....

     

    best regards and muchas gracias for your help.
