  1. Was thinking of selling mine, but may hold on to it now I've read this. Did you find one Lenux?
  2. Any UK pit-builders interested in an armoured seat, believed to be from a Gazelle? Also 5 point harness complete with shoulder reel and remote locking lever. Seat is very heavy so pickup preferred, or shipping at buyers cost. Not sure whether I should post here or for sale section. Mods - please move if posted in the wrong forum.
  3. Looks like Amazon are only taking orders, for delivery 20th september. At £549, it's still cheaper direct.
  4. For me, the Warthog is a great stick but it's pretty bespoke for the A10-c and bought functionality rather than precision, and if you don't mount it rigidly, you may as well use a gamepad! I've just received my Monstertech Mount and it's a gamechanger! Get the Black Mamba base and you'll feel the two separate axis but the blending has never bothered me!
  5. Wow, real thing looks even better than the pics here - just takes a couple of minutes to fix the joystick mount and adjust the clamp and you're ready to go! Great service too - ordered last Tuesday and DHL tried to deliver this Tuesday (nobody home)! Just seen the black anodising, would have gone much better in my pit (office) :( And after first flight, can now say that any joystick is compromised unless it's properly mounted - having gone from X-55 to CH Fighterstick to Warthog and now to Black Mamba, the biggest stepchange was getting a solid mount like this!
  6. Thrustmaster Warthog stick for sale, with extension SOLD! Stick sold and shipped! Busted base still available.
  7. To clarify, I am selling:- 1 complete Warthog stick as-new in box 1 Warthog stick base with broken gimbal No throttle, the grip from the broken base is not available!
  8. Selling my TM Warthog stick with extension. Purchased new last year as a stopgap whilst I was trying to get my original Warthog gimbal repaired (which is still busted in the loft, open to offers ;)). Stick comes in original (tatty) box, with instructions etc, and will come with a stainless steel extension from wasy100 Would prefer UK buyer and local pickup/dropoff, but PM me if you're interested from further afield! Located in North Hertfordshire! £120, PM me with offers or post questions here!
  9. There are two different instructions, one for the "Vintage Mamba" which describes moving the button connector lead to the opposite PCB, and one for the "Mamba" which doesn't, but in the meantime, I answered my own question; the connector needs to be moved to the other PCB as described for the "Vintage Mamba"
  10. I assume the spring in the bag with the yellow dot is for the warthog pitch? Does the connector need to be switched on the MKIII or only on the vintage mamba? Vintage or Mamba
  11. Mine arrived today; had a quick look but haven't hooked it up yet. Any tips on fitting the Warthog adaptor?
  12. You'll get plenty of practice - you'll probably have to do it separately in every module you have in DCS; I haven't found a way of generic axis/button assignment yet.
  13. Great thanks Metalnwood. Clear now!
  14. So I'm thinking of taking the plunge with VR, but struggling with some of the jargon! First there was "Screen door", now there's "god rays", no idea what these mean!
  15. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tornado-Aircraft-Pilot-Throttle-Control-Box-TOS-/131773408733?hash=item1eae4ea5dd:g:EqwAAOSw5VZXBMhj http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RAF-Panavia-Tornado-Aircraft-Cockpit-Throttle-Box-Control-Quadrant/131734923284?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D35391%26meid%3D3c84f17c039f49a7a38b56fc80038b53%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D131773408733 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RAF-Panavia-Tornado-Aircraft-Cockpit-Throttle-Box-Control-Quadrant-/141943576603?hash=item210c7f181b:g:2ZUAAOSwZtJW-mqR Probably enough bits to build a complete aircraft here
  16. Radeon software is still telling me that mine is up to date with 15.###
  17. I think that may have been what killed the HDD; The old PSU cables looked better than the new ones, and saved rerouting them all. Fortunately the motherboard and CPU supplies were hard-wired to the old PSU so I had to swap them over, otherwise the whole PC might have been toast. Got just about everything running again now, but it's a fresh install of Windows and the DVD drive still isn't working, but that didn't lose me any data!
  18. Recently upgraded my graphics card and PSU. Noticed that the Graphics card remains powered after the PC has shutdown. Is this normal? PSU is Corsair RM850. Card is Asus R9 390X Strix.
  19. Been an expensive week. A 4k monitor led to a new GPU (R9 390x). All good until all the power went out whilst downstairs watching TV - PSU (750w) was fried, my fault for leaving it running even though I'd read the warnings/reviews........ Which led to a new PSU today - everything seems to work except the HDD, so can't get Windows to run and my Daughter's had to do her homework again...... So instead of a cheap 4k monitor, I've ended up with an expensive broken PC and the wrath of the family!
  20. Sorry if this has been asked/answered elsewhere. In 2.0alpha, I seem to have set my default cockpit view to a head-down position. Is there a way to reset it to the default view, which I was quite happy with? I've found how to set it to a new default with RALT+NUM0 but can't get it back to the original setting. Thanks
