  1. Have any of these gone out to youtubers to see some hands on opinions prior to release?
  2. I ended up updating the firmware on both devices and revisited the axis commands. Not sure if that fixed the issue, but both are working fine now.
  3. When assigning the HOCAS Controller X and Y axis, the Y works as normal but the X is inverted. When I tick the invert box for the X axis it also inverts the Y axis so there is no way to have both moving in the proper directions. I tested this with the Winwing Orion2 KA50 collective "LDG LIGHT" hat and with an Xbox controller analog stick with the same resulting bug both in the Pilot and CP/G seats.
  4. My orion2 came in two separate packages, orion base and F-16 throttle grip. The base was delivered three days before the grip arrived.
  5. What exactly are these things for? Future modules to add on?
  6. Got my base today. Somehow the throttle package got separated. Let's hope it lands tomorrow.
  7. Spoke with their support last night (their morning). From what they said, they have so many pre-orders that they took some payments a little earlier than normal. I'm guessing they anticipated a big restock. Got my shipment notification overnight
  8. Yeah, I am aware of the message. I sent a message to them on their main site.
  9. I got my payment request on the 22nd and paid that day. No sign of shipment yet. Sent them a message to see what the status was. I placed my order via the Fox2 website so I'm wondering if there was some sort of mix up because of that.
  10. Same for me this morning. Preordered the Orion Throttle F-16EX March 19th using their Fox2 store. Am I correct to assume that it will be the Orion2 version and it ships from China? Looking forward to receiving it.
  11. Hello, I seem to be having an issue were the my bombing mode randomly switches between CCRP/CCIP/Gun STRF and sometimes my counter measures begin to dispense on their own, even though I am set to manual mode. My guess is that button presses for the NWS A/R DISC MSL STEP Button and Countermeasures Management switch is occurring randomly. I've checked the bindings for these controls and they are only set to my joystick and keyboard and not on any of my other peripherals. I have not been able to figure out what is triggering the button presses, but I have noticed that sometimes the bombing mode changes whenever I do some extreme stick movements. as far as the countermeasures dispensing, I've noticed it happening a couple times while moving my throttles. I checked the bindings for the axis controls to confirm they are only bound for what they should be changing and nothing else. as a bonus bug I noticed when swapping to different pages within the MFD, the brightness would seem to default to dark and I'd have to manually adjust it each time I switched to a new page for the first time. edit: forgot to mention that I am using a warthog throttle with Gizzy's profile enabled and a VKB Gunfighter with the MCG stick.
  12. Just curious if there is any news on the desk mount.
  13. So how is it performing in DCS and what are your system specs? How are you liking the 49" size and after having some time with it, would you still pick this over a smaller UW screen?
  14. I sent you a PM with some feedback for the airbus part
  15. Did the old version not work because it needed some minor tweaking to it or was it just impractical to use with the warthog?
  16. Hello Debolestis, The airbus that I've been waiting for has finally gone into public release. I was getting ready to order the detent that we designed together but noticed that the original link shows "not for sale" https://www.shapeways.com/product/CQH36Z3EJ/warthog-throttle-part-airbus I've also noticed that you have a new airbus detent in your store. https://www.shapeways.com/product/WU5SDEN23/warthog-throttle-part-airbus?optionId=64806143 Could you please tell me why you created the new version? Did the original have any issues? Thanks
  17. Would anyone here happen to have a sound sample of the master warning chime for the F18?
  18. Looks good so far. I will be sharing your image and Shapeways store link to see if anyone that is part of the beta test is willing to pick one up and try it out. Other than that, I'll have to wait until the aircraft is released or I get lucky enough to get into the beta. Thanks for your help and I'll get back to you when there is some feedback to share.
  19. You work exceptionally quick Debolestis! I have made some modifications that I think would be better suited to match the real throttle's actions. Please forgive my crude editing skills! I have modified it so that detents marked in yellow are push through similar to how you have this one set up in the center: https://www.shapeways.com/product/8ZNMV2TQV/warthog-throttle-part-center-detent?optionId=63799378 Then in order to reach Reverse Idle you'll need to lift and do slight pull back. To get out of the Reverse thrust range, you simply push through forward. Here is a video showing the detents in action during all phases of flight: Do you think it is possible in this configuration?
  20. Sounds correct, 100% and 0% obviously not being detents and just topping/bottoming out the range of motion. I think push through for each detent would work fine. Maybe having to lift to reach Reverse Idle would be interesting as well, provided it is possible to fit that in. As soon as I can get a copy of the A/C I'll jump on it in order to confirm the numbers.
  21. If I did my math correctly the detents should be at approximately: REV 0% 16383 (Target Device Analyzer value) REV_IDLE 22% 12779 IDLE 31% 11304 CLB 69% 5079 MCT_FLX 85% 2457 TOGA 100% 0
  22. So this is the response I got from one of the devs for the A320. I have no idea how to decipher this info to come up with the % of travel on the warthog but I'll see what I can figure out. I'm assuming that those numbers are associated with X-Plane 11 only. If the numbers help you out, let me know. I've also received three detents from your store and all fit nice and snug and are working great: dual detent afterburner detent no detents
  23. Working in it. Unfortunately the airbus I'm interested in just entered closed beta but I am unable to join. I asked someone with a warthog and the beta to retrieve the percentages.
  24. Hello debolestis, I ordered three of your detents and look forward to testing them out when they arrive next week. In addition to DCS, I also enjoy flying airliners and I was wondering if it would be practical/possible to design a warthog detent to match that of an Airbus throttle quadrant. As you can see below, the airbus has four physical detent locations ( idle/0, CL, FLX/MCT, TOGA) with a range of movement below the idle detent. Do you think given the physical space available with the warthog detent, would four detents be possible to design and be practical for use?
