Make your own thread please.

I haven’t made the switch to a 5090 yet as I’ve not seen enough feedback about the gains. It’s interesting you say you get 90fps. Could you clarify in what scenario though? I tend to do my tests in a few places. The ramp at Nellis on the missions that come with DCS. A fast flight at 1500ft from the rads on ramp mission in Dubai over populated areas, corner speed turns around the sky scrapers, or flights over Cairo with corner speed turns.

Do double check the firmware in your panel is up to date.

Have I got this right? People complained from the day the AVA was released that it is too wobbly. Thrustmaster fixes this (?) by releasing a new damper and expects the consumer to pay to fix their design flaw? Hmm.

As I have said to people many times, this is a Thustmaster problem not a fault of the script as the script has only gone as far as running standard Thrustmaster code. So I am just suggesting basic fault finding techniques such as, connect direct to PC, install the latest software and firmware, disconnect any other joysticks, etc. Have you updated the firmware in your Viper panel? Have you tried a script that Thrustmaster supplies with the panel/Target software that configures/controls the Viper panel? If you have, you will have exhausted all the basic fault finding steps that Thrustmaster themselves would ask you to do and you will need to take this issue up with Thrustmaster directly.

Are you using a USB hub? This very same problem was reported just one page back.

First post, need help section.

My experience of first line tech support is that they have no clue. You could speak to another and get an utterly different made up story. You’ll only get the truth from the development team.

Ten orders shipped this week! Two more to build and ship and should be going out in the next few days. Orders have been flying out to USA, Hong Kong, South Korea and the UK!

I’m going to assume this has sold. If anyone is looking for a pointctrl alternative, take a look at the Slugmouse.

Have you considered Slugmouse instead? It has no waiting lists and is shipped within one to two weeks.

Hand tracking has always worked via air link and link (i.e. usb cable) and also using Virtual Desktop (third party version of Meta’s Link). If it’s not working via Meta Link (cabled) then I would suspect that either you’re missing a setting or Meta has broken something again - they do it all the time. Virtual Desktop is far more reliable in that they don’t break their own app and it “just works” without the need to faff about with various settings. With regards to using hand tracking in DCS, the DCS implementation of “hands” is painful to use. Often it takes multiple attempts to throw a switch by which time… you reach for the mouse or die. Stage right - the Slugmouse. A finger worn mouse or game pad button device. So rather than stabbing at controls in the cockpit, just move the mouse cursor over a control by moving your hand and then press the one of the buttons of the five-way hat switch to activate the cockpit control.

Price drop! Due to lower cost of materials, I am passing on the savings to you! Now only £139.99 plus shipping!

Orders placed on the 28th and 29th May (last week) are shipping tomorrow! Both will be winging their way to the USA to enhance the flight sim experience of their owners!

Yes it will work. Hand tracking works well over the meta cable link.
