Hello Warlord, Two years late and a dollar short, I finally am back to say thank you for making my skin! I never received a notification of a reply, probably because I forgot to tick the "follow topic" button. The skin is beautiful and I really appreciate the effort! Chris PS- I dont suppose you have a version without the "XP-47N" on the tail, wold you? I have the "follow Topic" checked!!!

I support this message.

Honestly I would rather have jettisonable M10 rocket tubes and intrument lights I could actually adjust for brightness. And speaking of rocket tubes, let's put'em on all three variants like they historically were. Then you can have my vote for smokey start-ups .

Thank you Andrew-

Where is it possible to adjust the convergence?

Gents, Two quick questions, after having been stumped by the manual/ topic searches: 1. Is "breaking the wire" truly all one has to do to invoke water injection? There are two key bindings in the seetings, one for water injection enable and one for water injection disable. Not really what one would expect if all one has to do is firewall it- 2. I have bound a key to bring up the COMMS menu, but nothing happens when I use it. The COMMS menu does not show in the HUD, and the mic button on the throttle does not move. My radios are ON. Any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help-

Thanks guys- got it sorted. After a lengthy search using various keywords, I entered "outer" and a binding for the outer wing cannon was listed, RALT SPC. I was able to sequence this in the Warthog joystick and now all is good. Thanks for the tips-

Wow. So in the DCS key binding utility, what is the name of the key that can be used to bind the outer cannons to a button function of my choice? And no, on my install, they do NOT fire all at once. I have one binding that will fire my inner wing cannon and my rifle-caliber machine guns. Then I have a BUTTON on my stick that will fire the outer wing cannon. I want to fire ALL BARREL ARMAMENT with a single key press, but there isn't a key listed to do this, or a special, separate key (that I can find, anyway) that can be used to bind the outer wing cannon.

I am trying to bind inner and outer cannon + MG17s to a single key press using Thrustmaster TARGET software. (with Warthog Joystick). Has anyone achieved this? I can't seem to locate the key binding for the outer cannon, I can only fire them by pressing a proprietary stick button. I would like to bind all to the trigger. Any ideas if this is possible? Thanks! Chris

What about people using the stable version? Will Normandy 2.0 be available to us at some point? Thank you- It certainly looks beautiful!

My old wartie stick finally died and I replaced it with a new one. I want to get flying again right away, I may repair the old when I have time and sell it later, but for now my question is; How exactly do I safely and properly install the new stick? My old throttle is still hooked up, I use TARGET and it is still installed, and I have lots of saved profiles. Should my new stick have shipped with the latest firmware? Will the stick recognize my TARGET installation or vice versa? Anyone with experience on doing this? Thanks in advance for any help- Chris

Oh, My friend, I was probably "doomed" back in '82 when I first started simming. That is quite a rig you have there-mine uses the Logitech throttle quads for mixture, pitch, cowl flapss, etc.,and I have a Logitech Cessna Trim wheel for elevator trim. But you must tell me how you got the orange brake lever etc. I will reach out in a PM. PS, thank you for you help!

UPDATE: SUCCESS! Gents, After painstakingly binding each individual key, one at a time, to various buttons, switches and levers on my Warthog, and testing everything each step along the way, I now have a very flyable Mosquito! It would seem that there are some actuators on my equipment (Thrustmaster) that can be problematic in some applications. One was causing a "stuck key" event when paired with a modal (UMD) key, and another one seemed to be causing time compression to kick in inadvertently on a RCTL z command (still not 100% sure how that was happening). How this could happen with the Mosquito and not my other modules? Well, I checked and it appears I had not used those actuators on any of my other modules. Thus the apparent anomaly with the Mossie. However, I am now flying at 100% efficiency and my thanks to those who offered help and encouragement! Chris

Well, taking what some have said as a cue, I am building a new profile, but this time, instead of shoveling in all key bindings at once, I am adding them one at a time, and testing in betwixt. So far so good, I still have a great many bindings to add, but doing it this way will alert me immediately to a potential culprit. I believe I may be slowly sorting this.......................if I meet with success, I will report back here that it may help others- Thanks to all for your input, I will "endeavor to persevere"............................................................................................................. As an aside, the Mossie is such a dreamboat, no? Chris

so the syntax would look like this? /saved games/dcs/config/input/MosquitoFBMkVI/keyboard/keyboard.bak ? or this /saved games/dcs/config/input/MosquitoFBMkVI/keyboard.bak I renamed the keyboard folder to keyboard.bak, but it did not help- does this indicate something?
