So where are you from, when do you fly, do you have a HOTAS?, TIR/VR, Communications... (TS, Discord, SRS).....

Does your software allow you to assign a "Null" to the position?.. TARGET gives you this option, so the center detent of a switch does not have to be used, or any of the four way Hats positions. Look for that in your software...

When you find out let me know....... I've got HOTAS covers coming so that will help.

From a retired Squid (77-97) to a retired Zoomie... welcome aboard..... you, would of been an Aviation Ordnanceman (AO) in the Navy.. we called em B.B. Stackers... IYAOYAS... I was an Avionics tech... AT The IYAOYAS is "If You Ain't Ordnance You Ain't Shiznit.... The AT's would just tell em DILLIGAFF.....

Sounds like you are around my age Buzz.... Obsolete.....

If your Motherboard holds two M.2 SSD's I would get two 1TB drives, I had one and had to get another for lack of room. I've got IL2, IL2 Beta, DCS and DCS Open Beta on that 1TB drive...I was quickly running out of room.. I went out and got another M.2. The OS is running off of an SSD in the case's rack, Seagate 500Gb SSD. So I've got two 1TB M.2's, one 500GB SSD, and one 350GB Raptor HDD. IL2 on one M.2 and DCS on the other, OS on the rack SSD, and all my junk/backups on the HDD.... Cheers Hoss

I really need to get on the ball with learning the Spit... there is just something about the 2D, TIR view in cockpit that just is not right. Haven't figured out how to fix it yet. Cheers

Good choice on the monitor...

Put the hand break on your right or left toe brake, and adjust the curve so the nose doesn't do a face plant.... Using both throttles does work very well as stated above.... Good Luck

Good on ya then..... keep posting progress

You can't see them with the throttle forward anyway, I do use the first light to tell me if my IN/OUT Toggle on the S3 switch is IN or OUT. I sent you a PM with a design I came up with for IL2/DCS Warbirds. Cheers Hoss

The P-47 and P-51 arming panels Left/Right/Belly arming conventions could use some standardization. The panels in the planes are very similar but the keymapping they used is not uniform. The P-51 has keys mapped for it, the P-47 does not have any key strokes mapped at all, I had to figure out if I could use in-game keystrokes from the Mustang Left wing bomb arming and use some for the P-47 left wing arming... The Mosquito also has L/R/Belly bomb arming, dearming keybinds. This is what happens when your developers are not given a specific template of things that should be repeated from similar aircraft layouts and controls to make our jobs of programming our HOTAS easier. JMTCW.....

They had one in England and one in Italy, the one in England was in an accident and never flew or saw action, the one in Italy did fly, but saw no action. the P-80 did make it to the continent, the Meteor did not... Of course it's carer in England was not as bad.. LOL It's still a chase plane for some companies. I believe Boeing retired theirs about two or three years ago. Cheers

Viper, you can have custom plates made for your throttle from Tek Creations, he will send you a blank and you can design it how you want it. This the one I'm working on for IL2 and DCS Warbirds.

Same TMWH? LOL, she needs a booster seat and adjustable pedals... keep her at it.. looks like she enjoys it.

Clear everything that shows up in your controller columns and start over with Axis first, clear everything.. start new, then control binds.. flaps, guns. Happens to me when I mess things up too. You will have to do this for every single module unless you have that injector mod that makes the change for all your planes.

I've got a 3080ti running off a 800W Power Supply, so far so good.

Don't forget what I said about storage Buzz....... you can always get more after it's in your hands. the M.2's go on the Mobo so there is no cables to run to the SATA ports and Power Supply. If you play DCS you understand... Cheers

Those outfits that build computers are going to get parts cheaper than you will BuzzU so you will lose everytime. Just make sure they are reputable parts, read reviews on the installed parts. They have a lot more experience building computers, cable management, and tweaking it to work like a well oiled machine. LOL If they let you pick your parts, even better. Check to see how customer support is seen by others in the reviews and that they have On Call technical support. Let us know what you pick and how it runs once you get it. “Care about what other people think, and you will always be their prisoner” Cheers

The GUI Radio button on the Right VPC Stick column would have a selection for move this column Left/Right so your "Right VPC Stick" and your "Left VPC Throttle" are side by side?. I would like my TMWH "Combined" to be the first controller I see on the left and not the last controller on the right. Good idea, Thrustmaster TARGET lets you do that in it's GUI screen with commands moving them up or down in sequence. Good idea! Cheers Hoss p.s. Nice Hijack job guys.. LOL

You can bomb Libya with it................... do we have that map? But you would have to fly from England around France, because they would not let us over fly their country. Of course you would need multiple refuel events. Sounds like fun...
