I am using AI track for tracking and it seems adequate at this point. I would like to get my plane off the ground using some tutorials I have found. I have a zoom feature on my hot as that was set by a profile I loaded. For some reason the keyboard commands for looking around the cockpit don’t seem to be active or responding……..?

I just bought Velocity One rudder pedals. They show up in one of the heading on my setup screen but I can’t seem to bind them or get to be recognized.

I'm going to be honest. I can count on one hand, the amount of times I have played video games in the last 30 years. I decided to get into this mess because I want to learn a bit about flying. I'ts going painfully slow. "Flying on a server" or someones private server etc. I don't even know what that means. I open up DCS and attempt to get the damn thing in the air. How does that server thing work. I'm not going ruin someones day by showing up in their airspace just curious about how it works. Thanks for ant feedback.

Just getting started and I've never flow with other people. However, I hope to. JUst wondering if I can use wireless earbuds and a microphone or just get a gaming headset? Thanks for your feedback.

I've hade DCS for a month or so now. I have a Thrustmaster Warthog Hotas. I got Flaming cliffs and then through my infinite wisdom purchased the F5E Tiger 2 module because I thought a full fidelity module would be more intuitive. I did manage to get Head tracking running, after a few tries. Needless to say, I haven't gotten anywhere with the DCS and have put waaaaay to much time into trying to figure out how to get started. Sure, I can read the Module manual and watch endless videos on different operations about my choice of aircraft. I can't get beyond sertting up my hotas for my aircraft, or is there a standard set up, who knows. I tried importing other players profiles. No luck. I'm stuck on things like, I can't even seem to look around my cockpit to focus in on particular controls. Although while I have tryed "free flying" I was able to use a few number pad views. I guess my point is that I can't even get to point where I learn my module and I've exhausted my time on youtube university. I take any advice available even if it's "quit now, your not cut out for it". Thanks
