Always learning something new in this forum. Thanks!

Just a question, why would you drop more than one LGB at a time? Thought it was one LGB/JDAM per target and if you want to release multiple bombs, you'd use dumb bombs/CBUs?

*Fist pump* Did my first full AAR without any disconnects just now!!! Was so happy I put my sidewinder up the tanker's ass!

You guys talking about track ir5? (Googled track i5 thinking it was some new hardcore tracking device but nuttin)... If so, I won't play any flight sims without it. It's a bit like trying to fly with a keyboard...

What you need is Track IR, arguably the second most important thing to purchase for flight sims after a joystick/HOTAS... http://www.naturalpoint.com/trackir/

Face palm moment! I just realised I've been using the 'realistic neck' mod which changes the POV with track IR... All I see when I'm connected is literally just the probe. No wonder why I've been having such a PITA time as I don't have any aircraft/wing to reference! :joystick: Ps awesome mate. I hope to AAR like that one day

Picture please!!!

In my view, ThrustMaster Warthog hands down. Re the X-52 Pro, I had mine for about 2 weeks before returning it for the TMWH which was absolutely night and day difference. I found the X-52 Pro to be too flimsy and toy'ish though my biggest issue was buying a dud which had electrical faults... Otherwise I probably would have kept it, but it being a dud gave me a 'reason' to upgrade! The TMWH is a fantastic investment if its within your price range.

I was just looking for this exact thing last night and found this: http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=72725 There's also a link to a mission planner in that thread though I havent had time to download/try it.

How long do you guys normally take from say near empty to full tank? I've been able to get a full tank about 4 times now since I started practicing a few days ago however it involves many disconnects and also take about 15 - 20 minutes which I think is far far too long. Also interesting to see that probes in RL AAR are usually never extended. You guys do the same?

Another silly question from me, I read that the MK82AIRs can be set to explode at x height above ground to maximise the damage. Is this modelled in DCS?

I think it was mentioned in "a10s over Kosovo" that the bullseye can change mid mission... Anyways I'm all new to bullseye references and was wondering if there's a quick method to immediately knowing the location of the bullseye call, or does one must enter it into the offset screen everytime? Is there a map where the cursor gives reference and distance from bullseye etc? How do you guys all do it? Thanks!

Woooooo attempted AAR today and successfully found the tanker AND refueled on my third attempt :smartass: .... After killing two KC-135s :doh: The THWH definitely helps, as does adding +12 curve on the X/Y axis. Thanks for all the great info on this thread guys! Now just gotta go and attempt it again and again and again and again then at night then some more...

Falcon 4 campaign engine on DCS = drool Maybe one day...

Slight hijacking: does DES TOF have any effect on the cbus? Changing the values between min and max doesn't seem to have any effect. Tia

Hi mate did you find an answer to this? Just got iControl and am having your exact same problems. Thanks

Update: kept my stick but swapped out the throttle unit. Every single button is clicks with a positive click including the flap. The right throttle had a tiny bit of play but I cranked the tension all the way down before even moving it. Fingers cross she'll be right for the next couple of yrs :-)

Hey guys, re autopilot chime... Is it just me or does it sound exactly like a windows chime? I keep thinking I've one of the sound files wrong and it's playing the old windows chime sound.

Thanks guys. I've just picked up a replacement throttle today which is firmer than what mine was. I did play around with the tension when I first got it though didn't notice much of a difference at either extremes. ... Ill just turn the tension down to its lowest when I get home I get home with my new unit I guess. Such a shame as the rest of the HOTAS is quite amazing. Cheers

64 bit at this very moment will not fix the CBU stutters. Mine drops to about 0.5FPS! Hopefully this will change in the next patch

I'm very new to the WH and have mapped the below without using target: - reset track ir: throttle slew nipple button (press it) - trim reset: paddle switch + trim down - gear up/down: paddle switch + left throttle button To set the reset, just open track ir outside of DCS and asign it there. I find with a good track ir profile, you almost never need to hit the reset.

Hi folks, Have had my WH for about two weeks now and the right throttle has suddenly developed a bit of free play, along both Y and X axis. The throttle unit also has some loose switches namely my flap switch and a few others. The stick had from day one, about 2 to 3mm of twist free play to the left from centre. While I have contacted the store for an exchange, I've googled a few others with the same problem though no noted fix. Just wanted to gauge the issue and what you guys have done about it, or simply did you just live with it? Cheers

A blast from the past! I've got the basics of CCRP down and can deliver guided munition 10/10 times but was struggling and quite frustrated with CCIP delivery... ... Until google brought me to this thread. The informative debate, a page or two back has cleared it up for me and now I can release 9/10 times though need to massively focus on my accuracy. Anyway, saw another thread with same query so no doubt this can help others :)

Clip works for me. 90% im using my speakers as well so never got the Clip Pro...

Totally agree and was a little disappointed to be honest. Have had my TMWH for about a week and I find slowing is difficult when you have a tiny 'nipple' to play with. Often you need to lift up your finger and push it again. Would've preferred if they made it exactly the same as the real one...
