MarcT-NL, There are 8 motors but only six channels. The leg and butt motors are connected in parallel. If you haven't done so, try swapping out motors to see if it is the motor that has failed or if the channel has gone bad. If your wiring appears good, examine the controller board. There are two 8 pin DIP MOSFETS (labeled IR P025H) driving 4 SMD resistors (labeled 2R2). Take a look at the picture of a portion of my control board (IMG_0610). I traced the dead channel to R34, which in the image looks fried. It should measure 2.2 ohms, but it measures 156 ohms. I have ordered some 2.2 ohms SMD resistors but haven't replaced R34 yet. The wiring in my JETSEAT had become brittle and the insulation had disintegrated in spots. I think the leads to the motor must have shorted out, frying R34. I do notice the motor on the dead channel twitches when I test the channel, so hopefully the MOSFET DIP isn't blown, because the PO25H appears to be made out of unobtainum. If the PO25 is okay, I am planning to totally rebuild my JETSEA, using higher quality wire, eliminating the secondary connector junction board and moving the controller board to a 3D printed enclosure that will be easier mount to the side of the chair. I plan to add memory foam cushioning, a cut out for a floor mounted center stick and a new cover made out olive drab military looking material. I have had mine JETSEAT about four years and it has undergone some hard use. Only two motors were working when I decided to try fixing it. Upon removing the innards from the JETSEAT cushion, I found all kind of problems: broken wires, bare wire, pulled out micro-connectors, bad solder joints wrapped with electrical tape rather than heat shrink, however all eight motors were still good. Attached are pictures of some of the problems I found. Yours appears be in much better condition. Good luck

@BIGNEWYI just realized a problem I might have created, but has gone undetected since I don't use voice chat. If you are running multiple instances of the server on the same computer, do you need to assign a unique port for each instances for VC? Or each instance of the server attempt to share port 10309?

My order arrived today and hoping to install it tonight.

Thanks Andre. I suppose if the only alternative is a new one, I might as well take the old one apart and look for broken wires and dead transducers. Anyone know of a source of replacement transducers?

Andre, I have had my Gametrix Jet Seat going on three years and I just don't like flying without. However; now 5 five of the 8 transducers have stopped working. I have tried "tapping" on them lightly without effect. Do you have any suggestions on how to diagnose and repair? Is there any software reset in the controller? Thanks Alan

Order #6268 just placed. The web site say expected dispatch is the week of May 17th.

Home Fries, Any chance of you doing a profile for the new T45 community mod? Alamo

I am seeing the same issues on my servers. One other problem, which I think maybe related, is that the RESUME ON functions often reverts to RESUME ON MANUAL even with the RESUME ON CLIENT set in the serverSetting.lua. The only way I have been able to change mission is to edit the [missionList] to have only one mission.

Had the same issue. You need to deselect the wrist watch looking icon (HISTORICAL LIST OF UNITS) to the right of the tank symbol at the bottom of the mission editor screen or choose a more recent date for the mission. I can't remember the date after which the A10C-II becomes available in the HISTORICAL LIST OF UNITS.

Seems to be working fine for me in CTS 2.5 HF2

what version of CTS are you running? It is working properly for me in CTS 2.5 HF 2.

That what I am doing. I have 3 servers running on one computer and manage them thru 2 separate accounts. Not a big issue, but I thought the 2 server per account restriction was a temporary measure the simplify troubleshooting in the early days when the dedicated server was introduced.

Is the limit of 2 servers per account still in effect?

Nealius, I had similar issues when we moved to a new house and changed ISPs. After moving none of my friends could see my servers. At my original location my router was behind a Comcast cable modem with all ports available to be exposed and for me to control. At the new location my router is behind the WIRELESS provider's router. I tried using the UPNP settings, but that didn't work. In order to expose my server to the internet, the ISP had to adjust some settings on their end. They basically set up a local IP address on the LAN side of their router to serve as a DMZ and had me assign my router to that specific address, giving full control over exposing any and all ports. So now I am able to host servers for DCS and SRS for my friends. Hopefully your ISP can do something similar for you.

You can do this from within DCS on the AUDIO OPTION PAGE. I have engine sounds going to my external speakers and cockpit communications going the VR Headset.

I have the same keyboard and it works great with DCS. You can program any keyboard key to generate any key code, series of 3 key codes or a macro. The software is pretty "klunkie" and it doesn't readily recognize the difference between LEFT and RIGHT shifts, controls, alts and windows keys, but you can input the ASC codes using a macro.

I did something similar for both my Virpil T50CM2 base with 200mm extension and my TM Warthog Base with 75mm extension. Sorry I couldn't figure out how to make pictures rotate the right way, but you get the idea.

If you’re not actually running TARGET, then it is not likely a problem of the MICROSOFT store from not deactivating the physical throttle and stick, when the TM Virtual Combo Controller.

https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=232737 This thread discusses the Microsoft store interference with TARGET and several different solutions. However, that doesn’t sound like your problem.

I love this utility and consider it a must have. I've noticed since the last update that the app seems to be taking 3 or 4 minutes to load. Is anyone else experiencing this? Alan

Great job on the Hawg! While working on building a HOTAS profile for the '47, I noticed three issues with keyboard commands not working. (1.) Horizon Cage/Uncage keyboard command "RShift + V" will only UNCAGE the artificial horizon. It will not CAGE it. (2.) Oxygen regulator Diluter lever Auto-Mix On-Off keyboard command "RShift + B" doesn't activate the lever. (3.) Oxygen Regulator Emergency By-Pass Value keyboard command "RCtrl + B" does not activate valve.

Temporary P-47D TARGET Profile I know Home Fries is or will be working on a new profile for the P-47D module, but if you are like me and your muscle memory is so tuned to the "buttonology" of his profiles, that it just doesn't feel right to fly without them.:huh::cry::( So, as a "stop gap measure", I have put together a "TARGET P47D kb v228.diff.lua" and "TARGET P47D wh v228.diff.lua" files for the P47D that will work with his P-51D TARGET profile. (Sorry no Cougar profile, since I don't have one.) Also included are JPEGS showing the mappings for the MFDs, Warthog Stick and Throttle. Installation is simple, just select Home Fries's TARGET P-51D profile and install the above mentioned lua input files for the P47D DSs keyboard and TM Virtual Controller. Since I had to adapt the mappings to work with the existing TARGET P51D profile, don't expect the normal level of sophistication with long tempo and short double presses, but all the basic function seem to work with un-shifted and shifted (i.e. +S3) buttons. I noticed some functions aren't working in the P47D module (it is early access) from the keyboard, like the artificial horizon toggle (you can "un-cage", but not "cage" it.) The O2 regulator key commands aren't working either, so I didn't include those in the profile. Thanks to Home Fries for creating this incredible tool for DCS that some of us have become so dependent on.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup: I hope these work for you until the genuine Home Fries P47D profile becomes available. Don't complain or ask for help from Home Fries if you have problems with this. It is a monster of my own creation and he had nothing to do with it, but PM me and I'll try to help you out.

Lorthirk, Excellent! I like your solution. I find it annoying to have to re-install the Windows Store when I am forced to get an App there.
