  1. Yeap saw those and I'm saving, no need to waste money on anything else.
  2. Lots of good info. Thanks. It looks like I need to dump my x52 pro (gladly) and go with the Virpil set up Toge posted about. I'm getting serious into the Apache so it's time to get some good stuff to run it. BTW: It's easier to auto rotate land in a real heli than in these sim heli's.
  3. Well looks like I need to replace my X52 pro if I want to set up any programs. So far it's been a real challenge without being able to see anyone else's example. All the examples are other types of Hotas. Suggestions on which one to get within $500.00. I have rudder pedals so no need to replace those.
  4. Don't know if you'd be interested in an Apache rookie, But I'd love to get with a group and fly. I do need to buy the additional maps over the next few weeks and I'm having a hell of a time trying to program my X52pro, rudder paddles are no brainer. I own and have flown several heli's on DCS and the Apache is quite the challenge compared to the others but I'm practicing regularly and getting the hang of the flight controls. A could of weeks ago, actually flew a real heli at a school. Wish I would have gotten my lic. 45 years ago when I was young enough for it to matter. At $35 and 4 years to get lic. and then age 66, it's just not practical.
  5. Have used DCS for years. Finally after 45 years, I flew a real Heli for an hour at a local Heli school. It's one of those things you wish you would have done long time ago when you could have...gotten a heli lic. But it would take 4 years and $35k. I'd be 66. Not practical. So, don't put off what you can do today. When you get too old to do the things you really wanted to do and can't, it really sucks.
