Many thanks Zabuzard. Very helpful. Happy landings, Talisman

Hi Folks, Please could some kind person explain what the new special options 'stick neutral position smoothing period' option is all about. I am afraid I do not understand the how, when, why of this feature or the potential positive or negative impact. Also, I use a force feedback joystick and would like to understand if this new feature is for non FFB sticks or just FFB sticks or any and all joysticks regardless. Moreover, is this feature something that creates more realism or is it some sort of crutch to provide general assistance for us PC sim pilots? Any information to help understanding regarding this new feature would be gratefully received. Thanks in anticipation. Happy landings, Talisman

Many thanks for getting back to me Zabuzard. Happy landings, Talisman

Hi Folks, Just a quick question. What would be a good reason for locking in the slats via the slat override switch? I am wondering why this option would be provided for. Sorry if this is a stupid question. Thanks. Happy landings, Talisman

Very much agree. Also, for troop transport missions, pilot visibility of troops in the back would immensely help immersion.

This year, I hope, lol.

Likely to be May/June by the time I take delivery in the UK and get a new PC rig set up. Do you have the Visionary Edition?

Ordered Visionary Edition today to replace my Pimax 5k+. Happy landings, Talisman

Many thanks for getting back to me MAXsenna. Happy landings, Talisman

Hi Folks, I use a MSFF2 joystick and would like to know if it would be worth me purchasing the Albatross, as I am a big fan of FFB. Confirmation regarding the availability of FFB for this ac from anyone kind enough to respond would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Happy landings, Talisman

I am retired and just a crazy old man coming towards the end of my free time. Have fun, it is later than you think. Happy landings, Talisman

More to come! Yes please. Fantastic!! Happy landings, Talisman

Great event. Many thanks for putting it on. Congratulations to Old Shatterhand for 1st place and to the Black Angels/Tiger Mercs team for a great event. Happy landings, Talisman

Hi folks, DCS race event starts today for this weekend. Details can be found in the link below: Event-Page - [TM] Black Angels - Air Race Looks like a lot of fun and a good skills challenge. Happy landings, Talisman

Got it now. Many thanks for your help. Happy landings, Talisman

Can't set the heading bug this way for me. Trying to use buttons on the left side of CDU after pressing FD, but no joy at all. Nothing happening. Happy landings, Talisman

I dont have any ETA yet, I hope we can share news soon, its going to be a big improvement. Sure hope us helicopter transport pilots can actually see them in the back of our helicopters when we transport them into combat. As a Huey and Chinook enthusiast that would be great news, at last. Happy landings, Talisman

Solved at last! Solution: In DCS Options Audio settings I turned down In-cockpit from 90% to 60 initially and finally settled on 75%. Can now hear ATC better and can understand sling load voice assistant at last. My earphones (win volume mixer) now set to level 58 and DCS Audio settings as per screen shot below. Thanks and happy landings all.

Will do. Many thanks. Happy landings, Talisman

Hi Folks, Having taken a break from the Chinook for a while, I have returned to find that I can no longer properly hear the voice assistant over the radio for sling loading. This is making sling loading rather difficult. My problem is that I cannot find a way of turning up the volume for the sling loading voice assistant. I have checked my audio settings and compared them with squad mates who can hear the voice assistant, but can see no significant difference between their audio settings and mine. So I am not sure where the problem may be. There was a time when I could hear the voice assistant fine, but no more for some reason. Any suggestions, thoughts and/or ideas to overcome this issue would be gratefully received. Happy landings, Talisman

Great shame. All that potential. Latest 2025 and beyond video left me cold. Happy landings, Talisman

Thanks John. Did not realise that. I always play MP with game chat turned off as I like a clear screen for VR immersion. So my game chat was turned off from when I was using a previous server. I will turn chat back on again next time I join this server and look to type in red or blue before turning it off again. Thanks. Happy landings, Talisman

Thanks, Joined blue coalition as per the new DCS log in select option for blue/red coalition, so did not type anything in anywhere. Will try again and look for a second option somewhere to type in to join blue. Happy landings, Talisman

Tried to join with a friend yesterday to fly helicopters, but could not select an aircraft or get into the cockpit. Perhaps we have both missed something, or there may be a bug. Might try again next week. Happy landings, Talisman
