  1. I only get the disconnect when connecting to the USB-C port on my 2070. If I use the one on the MB it will not. BUT the sounds is stutters. It is more annoying in DCS because of the additional sounds of lock tones, rwr etc.
  2. I have a Ryzen 5600x with a gigabyte Aorus Pro AC MB and a 2070, I set the PCie port to Gen 3 and my system would boot right back into the Bios. It would never start the normal start up sequence. It made me think that the change was prevented boot up. I also saw that for my MB there was a newer BIOS version, F13d. I don’t think I tried with the new version. I wonder why system would not boot beyond Bios.
  3. I don’t use Steam so did not not know what Auto throttling was. As I said,I reset all my settings to default in the control panel as he recommends and works better. Last night I flew in MSFS2020 and it looked better and smoother. No benchmark but just flying it.
  4. Miles do you mean the regular mouse cursor when moving the mouse? If so yes
  5. I "watched" this video, meaning the first few minutes and then went to the conclusions. I have the link going to the conclusions. DCS: Nvidia Control Panel — effective or bogus? I followed his recommendations and see an improvement. I would say my stutter is less. It clearly did not hurt FPS, I have to do some more testing in other missions to compare.
  6. So spend time this weekend putting it all together. Had to find a spot where I could set it up permanently. here is my setup I am thinking about welding a frame for under the seat. It would require more welding skills than I currently have. I like a challenge
  7. I will check the next time but I believe so. landing does in general. I am usually so focused on landing that I simply don't know
  8. Recently, I decided to commence early. about 2 miles out I was still a little high on the glideslope and that saved me. All of sudden another F-18 flew right below me, if I had been on glideslope I would have been hit. Peter
  9. 2 questions, first I had to recalibrate my fcu’s as I went to one screen and I feel the mouse cursor is very jittery now. When point somewhere the cross is always moving a bit. More than it did before. Any idea? second, I love the function on the Quest2 where you can double tab the case to get the pass through view. This afternoon I transferred the Aux controllers to my Quest2 and the double tab does not work anymore. Anyone else seen this? EDIT: a restart has resolved this. It never happened to me before Thanks,
  10. Let me know if that helps. I currently use the USB-C port of my motherboard and the sound is still somewhat stuttering. Not too bad but noticeable
  11. That is what am going to do now. Later I might get some 80/20
  12. I thought about doing that too, cutting down the silver tube, I was not sure if I wanted to do that. secondly, setting it up as such would require more space. I have to figure out where to put it. thanks for your replay
  13. Question to the group. you see that I have a PlaySeat, it sits relatively low to the ground. When I set up my Wheel Stand Pro the Joystick is too high. So I need to raise my seat. Any suggestions what to use. I can build some wooden frame but that does not look good. I am going to check Ikea, the might have something. Thanks
  14. interesting you say that, I followed someone's suggestions and it set it to much higher values than I thought would be good. The image quality was much better than I had before. no more shimmers in the cockpit. It did push my system to its limits. After upgrading to the 5600X I am good again. Now I am fine if my FPS is 25 on the supercarrier while I start up and taxi to the cat. The moment I am of the deck I am back up to 35 - 40 fps. It used to be 17fps with my Ryzen 7 2700.
  15. Wow that is surprising. What CPU are you using? I just upgraded to a 5600X together with a RTX2070 and a Quest2 I can get 25 -45fps.
  16. As someone who bought his first airplane almost a year ago, I can say no it is not cheaper
  17. I use TM Warthog throttle. TM A-10 AND F-18 sticks on a warbird base. This gives me much better fine control. Finally using MFG Crosswind pedals. Love this setup
  18. you can't go wrong with the JetSeat. I have maybe flown 10 hours with it but if get into a plane and forgot to turn it on, I notice right away something is wrong. I don't feel the plane. Maybe that was that also added to my experience yesterday. I can say that the last minute felt intense, constantly adding or reducing power, looking for that small lighted runway. You touch down and hope you see/feel the deceleration. I am going to add the mirror view so that I can take screen shots of moments like that. On another note, I got the VR cover for the Quest2, reviewers said that it was good as it prevented light leakage. That is very true, landing at night it was dark! Secondly, I had the issue that the hot air I was breathing out of my nose would fog up my glasses. With the VR Cover it blocks this completely.
  19. Like you said Rex, the complexity is what makes this different. I have flown the F18 for 2 years on an off. Never did a case III before. I had to pause the flight several times to look at page of the manual I added to the kneeboard. When I started flying the Hornet I wanted to learn everything before doing a campaign. All landings, refueling, weapons. After a while I figured I never get to flying missions because I am still practicing. Started the Raven One campaign and in mission 2 I have to do a case III landing, so I had to learn. And one additional note, flying in VR adds so much. Doing a case III in VR, it is dark and not your room in daylight with a monitor in front of you.
  20. This week I upgraded my CPU to a 5600x and it helped with the frame rate of my Quest 2 I got a month ago. This afternoon I flew a Case III in the F-18 onto the Super Carrier. I was successful on the third try. First 2 ended with me hitting the end of the carrier. With Quest2 I now have the clarity and image quality to make it feel I am there. After I came to a stop, looked towards the superstructure, I saw the deck crew, the lights on the superstructure together with the parked planes. It was amazing, it was the closest I will ever come to experiencing being on a carrier. I know there are many problems that need to be resolved but it is great to fly DCS.
  21. Ok update, I found out that the VirtualLink port had/has stability problems so it just doesn’t work well. I got the sound to work better by re installing the sound drivers.
  22. OK i want to see if the combined brain power here has an idea of how to solve my problem. I have been using the USB-C port on my RTX2070 to connect to my Quest 2. Problem I have is that after 20 -25 minutes the connection gets interrupted. I can reestablish the link but the I don't get the view of DCS back in the headset. I "solved" it by connecting thru the USB-C port on my B450F motherboard. It worked although the connection thru the 2070 seems better. I changed a bunch of the link settings to see if that had an impact. Not that I can see. I got a new CPU this week (Ryzen 5 5600x) with a new motherboard. A GIGABYTE B550 AORUS PRO AC ATX. When connecting the USB-C to the MB gives me a really crackly Edited: stuttering sound in my headset. Secondly, I can hear the engine sounds but not the radio calls??? Connecting to my 2070 still causes the lost link problem, but good sound. Any ideas? I did update all of my drivers
  23. I did the same, just ordered it this afternoon. Should come in next week Wednesday - Friday. And just picked up a Ryzen 5 5600X. It is a good day
  24. That is a good point Phoenix. Question, can you move the arms laterally? Meaning wider apart? I use a warbird base so I might have to drill some more holes. And want add a different button box, I use the MFD now for non flying functions, like specific views, kneeboard. Etc.
