  1. The PTO2 comes with the two mounting brackets, your going to need four T-Slot nuts in M5 and four M5 x 45 screws. Two on each side of tour 4080 extrusion. I would suggest downloading the manual from WinWing for the PTO2. And looking at MTSIM for their T-slot nuts. You can probably get them faster off Amazon. The M5 cap nut screws you can find at any hardware store. Look for 4080 extrusion hardware on Amazon. But definitely go look at the manual for the PTO2. And MTSIM s manual assembly of the MIP to 4080 desk mount.
  2. Well, I don't have a problem with braking or turning in the Corsair. The curve I use is a J curve (something I used on the throttle in TARGET) and it works great. 0 90..... acts as a dead zone 0 -35..... The J curve The 90 is a dead zone at the top... What I have issues with is the spastic trim, especially the rudder trim. The slightest adjustment is like kicking the rudder pedals. I've tamed it somewhat with extreme axis curves. But don't get me started with low speed handling...... It is what it is; very early access, hopefully it gets fixed sooner rather than later. Because it has great potential......
  3. Yes, I created a Tech folder for some of Gregory's mods. I can make a OVGME package for it now. Thanks
  4. Got it........... Now where in the saved games folder does it go so I can build an OVGME mod file. I don't install mods directly into the game. So if I have conflicts they are easy to remove and troubleshoot issues. Thanks
  5. Where exactly does this mod get installed, the read me contains no directions as to where to install the mod.......
  6. Okay, how do you download this thing, I got a receipt in my email, hit the Massun92 thing and it takes me back to the original post wanting me to buy it again. Talk about the run around....
  7. I'm not sure why some are having problems with the Corsair turning during taxi.... If I'm not careful I do donuts turning onto the runway. I usually have to lock the tail wheel to taxi straight, other wise I'm all over the place. I had problems with the weapons selection screen not being able to right click and choose my ordnance. I reinstalled and that fixed my problem. I'm not saying this will fix anyone elses problem, but it's something to look at. I have to admit I'm a bit disappointed that the Fuel tank selector rotary along with the magnetos was not fully implemented with GUI rotary movements instead of the + or -, And the rudder trim needs toned down as well, small movements on my trim box is like kicking the rudder pedal hard. But it flies much better now with some of the drag problems fixed, it would get so slow it just wallowed in the air with ordnance slung on it, formation flying was out of the question. Looking forward to when it's as much fun to fly as the Jug is now.
  8. The fuel tank selector rotary, and magnetos switch are still + or - . The gunsight brightness is finally an axis. The correction to drag with loadouts are nice, it doesn't wallow as bad anymore.
  9. Go to the Thrustmaster website, they have two different extensions for sale now. A straight one like you are looking for with 0 -30 degree offset, and a curved one.. SimFab also makes three different lengths for the Thrustmaster sticks. You can find extensions on ebay too, that's where I got my 100 mm straight, and 200 curved extension...
  10. Make sure you test the three different collars, too. I've got the long stick, so I'm using the small collar. And you do know how to calibrate it after you change components right?...
  11. Do you mean the Falcon(F-16), Warthog (A-10) stick?.... or the Hornet (F/A-18) stick?... There is a Viper TQS throttle system (F-16), I have the seperate Viper Panel button box... on my right side... and I like the Hornet stick the best. When you received your AVA base did it come with the new dampers already installed?, and with the FBW cams included?.. I didn't like the FBW cams at all, I might try them again and turn down the spring tension and compensate with the new dampers..... But I'm still using the Jet cams, and hard springs, with a 200 mm curved extension. It feels much better with the dampers installed.
  12. Make sure you have all the latest drivers, even TARGET has been updated. I have the AVA base with an F/A-18 stick on it, and when I updated the drivers my RSMapper software kept giving me hiccups. Go into Thrustmaster Control panel (Start/Thrustmaster/Thrustmaster Control Panel) if you don't see it, you don't have the drivers installed correctly. Once in there, look for your AVA base and make sure the firmware is up to date... no matter if you might think it is... Thrustmaster is going to ask you right off if everything is installed correctly. If you see your stick and all the buttons and axis' are working in the Control Panel, then it's a DCS problem not seeing your stick. I had to redo all my in game axis when I updated the drivers and Firmware. That's when it saw my stick as a Hornet (R) stick. It used to just be Hornet stick. Do a rescan of devices and then a slow repair of the game. Good luck.. glad to see you're still around Stanger... Hoss aka 361st_BeoWolf
  13. Got the dampers and cams today. Installed both, hated the cams, went back to jet cams, love the dampers. I'm in the process of finding a good spring tension to damper ratio that's good for my stick set up, I've got 200 mm extension on mine... It's a much more precise feeling now... totally changes your curves and deadzones...
  14. It's weird listening to Echo-19s sound mod while flying the P-51. The visuals don't do the engine sounds justice. While the Corsair is just the opposite. Probably why I use the Jug and the Mossie the most.
