HI. I have now flown the F86 a little more and I think it is ok I have to pull the stick a little less in turns, have a more gentle controlled pull and it is ok the airspeeds does not drop that much. I guess one just needs some practice after all.

Hi, Just returned to DCS after few years. Nice to be back with new powerful PC HW in 2025 and VR... WHen I fly the F86 Sabre it quckly slows down to 200kts as soon as I turn even if gentle turns. Then it takes long time to get up to speed. Is this normal? I know the Sabre has a slow aceleration then it gets fast again. It just looks not normal when flying against AI Mig 15s. I do my kills ok but it requires focus and lots of flaps in turns to keep it stable....

I have noticed with the Corsair that once one engage in a dogfight or action (2700RPM and throttle as required), in order to avoid the engine trip, I open the cowling flaps somehow half way or by monitoring the cylinder head temperature, then the oil cooler and intercooler open half way or even fully open. Less than that the engine will trip.

I confirm this has solved the problem, thanks a lot.

Hi. Thanks for the quick reply. I have now disabled HotPlug in Settings and I haven't had any issues so far. Tomorrow i will fly a bit more and let you know. By the way I do not use Trackir only TrackHat that is not an issue. I recommend TrackHat for those actively using a head tracking system. Again many thanks for the help. Hope this has solved the issue.

HI, II fly VR (Oculus 3), do not use TrackIR right now, I have also uninstalled the SW. But sometimes I use TrackHat which I have also unplugged it for troubleshooting purposes. While flying now and then (but rather often) I get "TrackIR disconnected" message, then "TrackIR connected". This will always deploy the landing gear of any airplane module. From the dcs.log i can see this event, below (and Attached the dcs.log file). Interesting if anyone has experienced this..... 2025-08-17 21:09:25.816 INFO APP (Main): Device plugged: [HID] HID-compliant device 2025-08-17 21:09:26.886 INFO INPUT (Main): created [TrackIR] 2025-08-17 21:09:27.773 INFO APP (Main): Device unplugged: [HID] HID-compliant device 2025-08-17 21:09:28.794 INFO APP (Main): Device plugged: [HID] HID-compliant device 2025-08-17 21:09:29.928 INFO INPUT (Main): created [TrackIR] 2025-08-17 21:09:32.874 INFO Dispatcher (Main): Stop 2025-08-17 21:09:33.903 INFO TERRAIN (Main): lSystem::CleanScenes() 2025-08-17 21:09:33.903 INFO WORLDGENERAL (Main): TerrainUtility:: updated in parallel: 29385, updated in the main thread: 0 2025-08-17 21:09:33.922 INFO VISUALIZER (4220): Stopped collection of statistic. 2025-08-17 21:01:40.000 ERROR_ONCE (): dcs.log

I have heard good thing about VD with Quest 3, need to try since I have learned it during my period with the Pico. I assume you use Quest 3 via WIFI?

I have not tried VD with the Quest 3 as I use a powered USB cable. Do not see the need so far...

Final update on the Pico Ultra... After one month testing it has been already sold to the next owner... To recap, the setup was easy, the Cons is that one needs to buy the Virtual Desktop from Pico store, cheap but still.... Nice quality, I was running all ta max resolution, the only Cons is the Pico lenses distort the image around their outer perimeter thus making the usable Field Of Vision much smaller. Unusable in warbirds where you need to clearly see controls to the left and right lower end of the cockpit (when you need to twist you body to the extreme to reach things). Still unable to read these tight areas of the cockpit. Otherwise nice visuals overall. I have not tested in jets where one has less body twist to reach and see things. Still A/B comparison with my Quest3, the Quest3 has larger FOV and it is lighter. The face interface it is much softer and comfortable, while the Pico Ultra is kind of hard face interface and hard on the top of the nose. To conclude, to date, the Quest 3 is still be best VR headset quality/price, but one need to master the Meta app and most of all the Oculus Diagnostic tool and best to register as Developer to open up other settings. Looking forward the next gen of Quest. I may give it a try to the Pimax even if the price it is hard to digest.

No still not fixed but solved in here. I posted the same question. You have to edit the LUA file Every time DCS update you have to re-edit the LUA file....

Auto-start/Stop Problem solved her

Very good module, now I have got control of the Corsair and systems. Landing on carrier ok. I which the aircraft carrier to have more activity as it is now it seems a ghost ship. Also the other war ships are of modern type vessels. It would be nice to have these ships matching the period.

For information only, a bit of an update after getting familiar with the Pico 4 Ultra and VD. These are my current setting in both DCS and VD where I am getting very good quality and 90fps steady. In VD under Streaming tab had to disable SSW. With SSW Always enabled or in Automatic I get smearing images on aircrafts a bit far away not clear. Best to keep it Disabled

See my reply to mrsylvestre above. Now all is ok…
