I was just thinking this today. I'd definitely love some mod patches and other DCS merch.

Cockpit retexture, for the Viper.
Arecibo replied to Xtorris's topic in Texture/Map Mods for DCS World
I meant the HOTAS switches - they don’t rotate or move. Regarding the joystick, I meant the trim switch and pickle button etc. Maybe I’ve been spoilt, as the F-4E was the first module I bought, and everything in the cockpit moves as expected. -

Looks good! Maybe the glass could have a bit of dirt in the edges, a few scratches and be less clean? I hope at some point ED add animations for the throttle and joystick. -
Nice, thanks DP, I'll give that a try. I've just been watching Top Guns: The Next Generation and it inspired me to give mod this a try!

Hi all, Has anybody had any luck landing on the carrier? I just tried the instant action in the Caucasus, chose one of the 'air' slots, but I can't seem to catch the wire. This has happened several times. I'm not sure if it's a bug, as I was on AoA at about 130 knots and the track shows that I should have caught it. I'm not sure if the carrier is a 'dummy' ship or something? T-45_Carrier_Landing.trk

Oh, my bad. If you're not a military aviator, it's easy to forget these things are classified! That's great, thanks Rudel

Just installed this and it looks great! Does anybody have a PDF of the NATOPS so I can start this thing up? Google has loads of false links.

Is there any update on this? I've just seen a fantastic implementation on the Black Hawk mod. Timestamped vid:

Arecibo started following Orion2: Heading and Course Bug Rotation Speed and VNAO T-45 Goshawk

Tried it on 1, tried it on 5. Still an issue unfortunately. It’s a shame they’re not hall sensors like the two sliders.

You'd think Winwing would have tested this. I wonder if it's something that could be fixed on a module level. For example, detecting different speeds of inputs would move the dial x10° / x50° / x100° That's a really solid suggestion actually. Thanks for that!

I never have the problem. For me it was just a case of finding the right Allen key tension (using really small increments). Like I say, it needs the odd tighten every now and then (rarely), but on the whole I just don't think about it. I have the Strike Eagle and Viper grips, so different weights of handle and they're both fine. There's no way I would have started ripping the thing apart to make it smoother.
-
I think it might just need 'bedding in' with usage. I have two bases that are smooth as butter, although tbh I didn't really notice 'stiction' as such when I bought them. It took a while to find just the right amount of friction with the allen key though and it needed retightening over time. Give it time, it'll be fine.

Hi all, I have a real issue with the speed that the heading and course bugs rotate on the Orion2 base, specifically in the F-4E. I end up having to spin it wildly to get it moving at a decent speed. Then it overshoots and I have to wait for it to finish before I can roll it back. I get so frustrated that I end up having to dial it in onscreen using the scroll wheel, which works fine. Is there a way to fix this or is this a firmware/Winwing support question? I have the speed dialled up to max (5) in SimApp Pro, but it needs to go higher. Cheers, Tim P.S. Do Winwing monitor this forum?

Hi all, I’ve just watched the @ralfidude landing video with a co-pilot (first officer?), but I’m just wondering: Is there a ‘Jester’ for solo players? I couldn’t see anything in the release marketing. I’m not clued up on the C-130, so I don’t know if it can be flown 'solo' or not. Thanks in advance

Same here, although I’m tempted to buy it, just so I can get more mileage out of my Turtle Beach Velocity One yoke outside of the X-Plane Cessna!
