I have them assigned as they would be (as close as possible) per the NATOPS in both DCS as well the VRS Superbug.

I'm using a combination of the TM Warthog Stick and Throttle with CH Products ProPedals, two CH Products MFPs as well one and a half, CH Products Throttle Quadrants. Obviously, not listed are the MFPs, Throttle Quadrants and ProPedals.

Finally got Control Manager to cooperate in Win7 compatibility mode, so, you never know ;)

CH Eclipse user on Windows 10 here. I've noticed this problem with Control Manager and I'm wondering if you've heard of it or know of a fix. The problem got so annoying that I stopped using the Control Manager software completely and now just fly it in non-programmable mode where it works perfect.
I used the Eclipse both with CMS scripting and straight 3 mode switch operation and have the same problem. Just about once every day the Eclipse seems to "lose focus", or in other words just goes dead at random times. When I look at the USB game devices it still shows up, but when I bring up Control Manager it doesn't "see" the Eclipse. Refreshing devices makes no difference. The only way to fix it is to completely reboot my laptop.
Since I stopped using Control Manager a couple weeks ago and have operated the Eclipse in standard configuration it hasn't lost focus a single time. I've read many people on the CH forum begging them to release a Windows 10 specific Control Manager.
Anyone else seeing this or know anything about this same problem?

Do not hate me for this Ghost.
There is an another Tutorial for the CH Products!
http://simhq.net/downloads/technology/CM_D3.zip
I only want to know everyone.
Use it or let it be :book:. It is for the "better" users all arround. I (?), for myself, have found other ways to use my CH Products! :smilewink:
Heh, who do you think wrote that one? ;)

The following seem to be unassignable with keys, or a combination of:
Flight Control
Engine Start Switch Toggle (joystick)
Flaps Down Detent (joystick)
Flaps Up Detent (joystick)
LP Fuel Cock Toggle (joystick)
Engine Start
Engine Ignition Toggle (joystick)
Fuel Pump On/Off (joystick)
I have plenty of buttons, switches and HATs to assign (more than enough actually). So I don't need a clickable cockpit. I've been trying to wrap my head around the starting sequence and what I've come up with based on the information out there as well in the .pdf installed with the Mod, I'm having to *cheat* with the LWIN KBHOME to get this aircraft started. Please, what am I missing...

Hi Ghost,
Curious, Why not just assign one button to the "Quick Start" command (LWIN + Home I think)? Save you a bunch of buttons on your TQ.
Still making your Franken-throttle?
Looks like I'm going to have to as the above, in that sequence, doesn't work. No worries, I've got plenty of Throttle Quadrants, buttons, switches... to assign LWIN KBHOME.
Haven't made a Fran-Potato in about a year. Can I still? Sure.

The assignments for start up look good. Without the CH stuff I can't verify for you though.
Thanks!

I currently have a couple (make it one and a half) CH Products Throttle Quadrants connected. I have come up with the following:

// TQ 1 BTN 3 (LIST MODE)
BATT-MASTER-1-ON HOLD RSHF 1

CANOPY-SAFETY-CATCH-CLOSE/OPEN LSHF c
// TQ 1 BTN 8 (LIST MODE)
LP-FUEL-COCK-ON HOLD LSHF d

// TQ 1 BTN 9
ENGINE-START-SWITCH-ON LSHF e
// TQ 1 BTN 11 (LIST MODE)
FUEL-PUMP-ON LSHF p
ENGINE-START-SWITCH-START
// PT SHIFTED ACTION BTN 4

HYDRAULIC-2-RESET HOLD LCTL CHARDLY LSHF p
// TQ 2 BTN 3
AHRS-SLAVE-MODE LCTL a
// TQ 2 BTN 5
ILS-ON LSHF 3
Can any of the rest of you flying the Hawk confirm what I've put together? TIA

Original text of Charge of the Light Brigade has Thiers
I stand corrected Sir. :doh:
-
It depends on the licencing agreement between Skyjet and BHTI then the agreement between Skyjet and BST. But since we are not privy to those agreements and like another poster stated that ED would not allow a 3rd party publisher to publish a module in DCS without the proper agreements, that the agreements are on the legal side of copyright law.
Thanks, again.
Gents believe it or not, this isn't my first rodeo. I actually get to work with (read play with) the UH1Y, AH1W, AH1Z and MH60S, in the real world. I played with the AH and UH at MCAS CPEN for 20 years. Now I get to play with the MH60S. I did contact BHTI on an unrelated project I was considering. BHTI wanted mucho dinero for any data they would have to provide as well permission to use any Bell related copyrighted material. I have the material I'd need to pull off the project IF PMA 276 were to grant me authorization to use (for personal use) the material I have available to me.
-
Textron owns bell as well as other aircraft companies.
Yes, I know. I'm in the business ;)
Bell Helicopter, Cessna Aircraft, Beechcraft
-
Common sense tells us we don't know half the story and they have a legal team and acquired all the propped licensing required. Eagle dynamics is not new at this and would not allow a third party to cause litigation due to improper licences.
"Ours is not to reason why, Ours is but to do or die." Lets just enjoy the module and not over think it.
Fixed :thumbup:
-
I think what Ghost is getting at Flagrum is that he is questioning the legality of the license of the Bell's IP for the UH-1 because the way BST has stated the copyright info (see below) it sounds like it's from a 3rd party company that Ghost has never heard of and not directly from Bell/Textron. In the manual in the table of contents page, there is a statement of:
"Bell, UH-1H Huey, emblems, logos, and body designs are trademarks of Textron Innovations Inc. and are used under license by Sky Jet International LLC (copyright symbol)"
From what I can find on the net, Skyjet International is a arcade simulator company that does arcade and mobile games and is from Belarus. Founder is Vasily Veka and Alexander Veka. They also founded Altwolf software development. Belsimtek is also from Belarus. So my guess is BST knows them and sub-licensing the IP from Skyjet or BST, Skyjet and Altwolf are all the same people. BST's page has no info about who the owners are.
DING DING DING! Thank you!
So, again I ask: How does one get a licence through one company that clearly does not represent BHTI?
-
Skyjet international looks to be a SIM arcade helicopter company. They have the game C.H.A.O.S.
Agreed, not hard to Google, and I did before I asked the question which led me to more questions and scratching my head saying to myself, hmmmmm
-
Speaking in riddles? Copyright as in © as in Bell as in, intellectual property OF Bell/BHTI, NOT Skyjet International LLC. How does one get a licence through one company that clearly does not represent BHTI?
-
Apparently Skyjet International LLC (per the packaging of the module) is whom the licence has been acquired through? Am I mistaken? Like I said, not trying to stir any pot, just trying to be clear. Also, like I've stated, I've worked with Bell and NAVAIR for over 20 years. Bell/BHTI is VERY protective of their intellectual property. They own all the simulator software (the real deal) for the AH and UH currently in the inventory. Oh, and then there's this:
-
BHTI = Bell Helicopters.
I've been working with them/NAVAIR for over 20 years.
-
The lack of replies with 70 (at this point) views, speaks volumes to the "licensing agreement" with BHTI.
-
I hope.
Who is Skyjet International LLC? Not trying to stir any pot here but I know that BHTI covets any and all of their intellectual property. i.e. images, data...
