Will work fine, I have the 680 and love it, really stable and decent/high fps with all settings at max, obviously it will also depend on your CPU.

Thanks :smilewink:

Yep although, that story is not in my copy, it is mentioned in passing but not in so much detail. That is I think from the updated/later edition. There is also a story about speed checks over california and the story in the book although similar again doesn't go into so much detail.link below.:smilewink: http://wesclark.com/burbank/sr_71.html

It was listed as used, with shelf wear, nothing about writing or the signatures. It has a couple of lines of text that have been highlighted, again not listed, and I am not complaining lol. The dust jacket is really good condition and no folded pages etc. Photo of the signatures :)

As a massive habu fan, i have been itching to get hold of a copy of 'Sled Driver' by Brian Shul for ages. For those not in the Know Brian is a retired USAF Major and a Ex Blackbird Pilot, flying missions over Libya after the F-111 strikes.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Shul Also a founding member of the the first operational A-10 squadron, from wiki :- He wrote this book about his experiences of the SR71 and also took most of the stunning photos, he published it and only a few were printed. They go on amazon for stupid money. Far more than I am willing to pay. I check regularly on Amazon for it, and often see on sale for many £££££/$$$$. I checked in January and was very shocked to see a copy for 'just' £73 including shipping to the UK from Atlanta. So click and it was mine :) :) It took around 4 weeks to arrive and I was gobsmacked to find, on opening the book that it has been hand signed by some of the legends of lockheed and the blackbird program. I have signatures from Lou Schalk, Lockheed test pilot, sadly dead now.http://roadrunnersinternationale.com/schalk.html Ken Collins http://roadrunnersinternationale.com/collins.html another test pilot, Robert Galliland http://roadrunnersinternationale.com/gilliland.html And Jim Easthan another test pilot http://roadrunnersinternationale.com/eastham.html To put these guys in context they are contemporaries of pilots like Chuck Yeager, and will appear in any history of Area 51 (the ranch) or indeed Lockheed or the A12/blackbird development program. Just goes to show bargains are available :) If any of you have an interest in the A12/blackbird I urge you to try and get hold of a copy, it really is a great book, however it is very short ( read it in 2 days) but the photography is stunning. You can get the reprinted book from Brian Shul's website but is still I think $400 :cry: :(

Have a look at pcspecialist.co.uk I got my desktop from there and they also do laptops, good thing is you choose your own spec and it is very intuitive. A good forum as well, good advice from knowlegable people, as well being able to post the spec here & get some feedback. You can get a quote immediately and use this to see if you can get some better prices etc, maybe worth a look ?

Quite true, definatley not :) In my defense they were taken with my i phone whilst excited after unpacking.... :D

Nor in real life :)

Hahahahaha same with me, made a numberplate acrylic fit my monitor with velco, redid my lua to make the MFD's fit the inside of the cougars, attached the mfd's to the number plate & then the monitor, looked excellent. BUT........ Image was tiny, kept pushing my monitor out of position if, in the heat of battle I hit one of the keys tooo hard, was really pants. So.... I reattached the bases to the MFd's and they now sit on my desk and the MFD's on my monitor are lovely and big :)

:thumbup: Well done, I just kept doing the startup mission till I sort of knew where everything was and order of switching stuff on then made my own startup check list. I then modified it to suit, now it is just a reference and I start up with no probs. Will stand you in good stead :)

I just mapped the center to the + key on the keypad as I use a WH, and these keys are used for the throttle, which is not needed if you use a hotas. I configured this in the TIR program not DCS, but you could also assign it to you HOTAS as well...:thumbup:

Have you tried it with just one display for comparison? And I would try disable the Aero as well. With the spec below running 2 monitors( 1 as an output for the MFD's admittedely ) I am seeing around 30-40 on the ground with everything on, and depending on mission around 40-80 in the air, i don't suffer from stutters either like a lot of people with cluster munitions. With that rig I would expect a lot more as well.... HTH

Also make sure that FFB is not enabled in the options, think it screws with the trimming i.e. it won't work.

"hawg 1-1, what's your currant tasking?" "cable laying over" LMAO

Can I have dibs on the track IR please?
