  1. Curious to how these will be priced and feel compared to the MFG Crosswinds.
  2. I don't but I'm curious how Buttkicker's own software compares. I've only used Simshakers Wings with IL2 and love it.
  3. I just pulled the trigger on a Sim Motion 160mm aluminum profile rig this past Black Friday (great deal!), and I'm looking for a solution to center mount my VKB Fat Black Mamba III joystick w/ S neck extension under the seat, or clamped in front. What do you guys recommend? I found this on the Monstertech website, I think it's designed for their own rig but was wondering if it would work with any aluminum profile rig under the seat? https://www.monstertechusa.com/product/mts-center-joystick/ Here's the rig I got: https://us.sim-motion.com/products/sim-motion-40x160-aluminum-extrusion-chassis-with-seat I'm so excited to replace my aging but trusty Obutto Ozone rig from 2008. Think it will be my 2nd rig for my kids someday when they get older and Dad needs a wingman or gunner.
  4. When I did the Sept BIOS update, I think the same thing happened to me. I had to go back to a wired keyboard and re-pair my bt keyboard and mouse.
  5. I have an Obutto Ozone, so a clamp mount would work best for me. I've done RAM mounts in the past. Is this thing plug and play USB for every button and lever? Or do I need software to make it work in IL2- Great Battles out of the box? Again not familiar with Winwing.
  6. Thanks Phantom, Is the PTO easy to mount? I have an Obutto Ozone cockpit, I have some button boxes mounted with RAM mounts probably would have to do something similar.
  7. This thing looks awesome. If I don't have any other Winwing stuff, would you guys still recommend using this? Or is this thing best hooked up into their entire ecosystem? It's just usb by itself right? I wonder how or where to mount it...
  8. How does it compare to the Warthog Throttle? This is what I currently have, and this looks like it will be my next upgrade. Do you think it would fair well with WW2 airplanes?
  9. I won fantasy football at work in 2017, and still using my VKB Fat Black Mamba III and Warthog Throttle from those winnings to this day. Very reliable for me. Next I have to figure how to mount my stick to the floor so I can use the extension I bought years ago...no place to do that on my old Obutto Ozone.
  10. Is any multi-thread stuff in the stable build yet?
  11. This is sad, still haven't had time really to fire it up yet on my new computer.
  12. I wanted the 3090, I really did. But the used ones by me just looked a little shady. It was worth a couple bucks more to get something brand new with a warranty that runs games about the same performance on less power that will last awhile. Is frame generation DLSS 3? I was hoping more games would take advantage of that that I play in the sim world...
  13. This is what I decided to go with that fit in my budget. Thanks for the help! Ok new PC is built! Haven't had time yet to hook up my Oculus Rift S and try out IL2 in VR, that's still coming. Looking forward to turning more graphics on in VR for IL2, DCS, MSFS2020, iRacing. Intel i5 13600 cpu Noctua nh-d15s cpu cooler Gigabyte z790 Aorus Elite AX motherboard 2 x 32GB GSkill Ripjaws RAM Gigabyte 4070ti graphics card Samsung 980 Pro 2TB ssd Corsair 850w psu Fractal Define 7 case Windows 11 First time using Windows 11...ick. Tried to make it look like W10 as much as I could. But it runs pretty snappy. Might have to look up some tweak guides.
  14. I got the FGT-Lite off Amazon and it came packaged great, not like this. That's too bad.
  15. Good to see some fellow Rift S users here. I'm still a noob to DCS VR, but after I built my new PC (parts coming today!) I plan on getting into DCS VR a little more.
