Would be great to get all the latest COIN in there. Along with Tucano, Aermacchi M346, etc.: Archangel http://www.iomax.net/archangel/ T-6 Texan II http://www.defensemedianetwork.com/stories/at-6-texan-ii-armed-aircraft-showing-progress-on-several-fronts/ Scorpion http://www.scorpionjet.com/

I searched all the posts and though people are having similar problems, it is not like what I am experiencing. Any help is appreciated... It seems after the 1.2.7 patch that my TrackIR 5 works fine for the first flight (both single and multiplayer). Once I land, or usually crash, exit, and get back in the cockpit, the viewing system goes nuts. If you Alt-Tab over to TrackIR GUI, the output of the camera goes from the nice little tracked 3 dots to what looks like a scrambled mess. I have both the clip and pro, neither work until you stop TrackIR, and restart it. I don't have the problem with any other games. I cleared out my INPUTS directory and reset all the config files for axis inputs. Still no luck. It looks like something deeper is interfering with the camera drivers.

It is/was the XM188. Mainly made for the AH-63, which was cancelled. It was experimentally fitted in the nose turret of an AH-1, but of course, not accepted. http://lms.aau.ac.id/library/ebook/R_365_00_H/files/res/downloads/download_0107.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S._helicopter_armament_subsystems#AH-1_Cobra Needs translated from Italian (I used Google Chrome) http://sobchak.wordpress.com/2013/03/31/general-electric-xm188-cannon/ XM188 vs. GAU-8 (A-10 30mm) vs. XM140 (single barrel "version" of XM188 ) XM188 has about ~20% the energy of the GAU-8 at the muzzle... http://i381.photobucket.com/albums/oo255/FEDE_EL_SOMALI/7888.jpg

Will this do dynamic weather during a single mission? As in... I am flying and it will shift the winds as I am flying the mission or have unpredictable turbulence.

This is looking to have a lot of potential. He is adding capacitive touch thru USB for it, also. It has the potential to use high resolution, small screens. Like the latest 1080p on smartphones. http://hipstercircuits.com/finally-a-working-4-3-hdmi-compatible-lcd/

Hacked Nook Color here. Would like to try it out.

Here is the one I use... Got it for $50 off eBay. MANY MORE KEYS... no backlight. http://www.cherrycorp.com/english/keyboards/POS/SPOS_Rows_Columns/index.htm

Just search for "Cherry POS Keyboard" on eBay and there are a ton of them out there. Got mine for $50USD for a Best Offer deal. Make sure you get the clear key cover "lenses" so you can put paper cutouts under them. You can buy them separate.

For the record, v5.9 of the software was released. After setting the "global delay" to 30ms from 3ms, all of my problems have cleared up.

DARPA has a program now called ViSAR that is supposed to give true all weather day/night imaging. Extreme high frequency radar to see through everything with short enough wavelength for resolution. http://www.darpa.mil/Our_Work/STO/Programs/Video_Synthetic_Aperture_Radar_(ViSAR).aspx

GAU-8 = 10,000 lbs of recoil... http://www.gdatp.com/factsheets/A013_GAU-8A.pdf

Woops, meant fast movers... Something about the speed of the aircraft vs. initial thrust of the Hellfire can't get it off the rack, if memory serves me right.

Hellfires can't be fired from fixed wing. That is what JCM/JAGM is for. Still a long way off for this... Or just buy Brimstone.

I worked this program from when General Dynamics primed it. The "Guided Rocket" nomenclature was more for making it seem affordable, "easy", and it uses existing hardware. Bottom line theme was "you really aren't buying anything new and you get all this cool capability for next gen warfare." Don't dig too deep into it.

True, the thermal model is a POS. I do scratch my head sometimes wondering who thought it up. There are several sources out there on how, at a minimum, the system should behave. Has anyone looked at modding the thermal?

This is an interesting problem. You do not want to give yourself more resolution than what the pod has or it will be cheating. Below are some leads into why. Quite simply there is a chain of effects that determine how well you can determine if a target is a target. The summary is this: Radiation emitted/reflected from target -> atmospheric effects -> sensor system/optics -> image processing -> display -> person interpreting/skill level http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson's_criteria http://www.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a254954.pdf http://spie.org/samples/TT70.pdf It would be cool if all of this was modeled in the sim, but it would bring the system to its knees at the same time!

No, I had the delays and everything else in there. The problem was phantom keystrokes that the Cherry POS Keyboards inject in the stream. They also press the keys out of order of what you actually have programmed. The tech support admitted that this was a design decision and that for low-performance, e.g. POS systems, it does not matter. In the case with BS2 that is reading the full keyboard queue with great precision, it screws it up.

Did you test if it actually works in Win 7 x64? I bought a high end Cherry POS Keyboard (http://www.cherrycorp.com/english/keyboards/POS/SPOS_Rows_Columns/index.htm - Look at all those buttons!) and it only worked in BS in 32bit mode. I have no idea why. I spent weeks with tech support before giving up. It is gathering dust on the floor right now.

There was an old profile I used to use with my Cougar that Viper made that would somehow virtually trim the joystick external to BS2 and make it think the joystick was "stuck" in place like a FFB or real cyclic. I never had the trim bounce or the wrestling with the trim like I do now. You would lose the nice hover indicator in Auto-Hover mode, though. Viper changed the profile to use the standard trimming method and I thought I should get with the times. Now I want to go back and can't find the old profile.

I am still having problems using my Cherry POS keyboard. I got the one in the link below for $50 off eBay and it just does not want to work with DCS... http://www.cherrycorp.com/english/keyboards/POS/SPOS_Rows_Columns/index.htm

So now I need this for BS2. I don't care so much for guages as I do my main buttons and switches I hit a lot. Any takers?

I got me one of these. They supposedly work well (they are the top of the line programmable keyboards out there next to X-Keys). I haven't gotten it to work in Win7 64bit, but it works in 32bit. http://www.ebay.com/itm/CHERRY-G86-63400-USB-LIGHT-GRAY-POS-KEYBOARD-NEW-/350587648329?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item51a0a6f949
