Thanks @pierscockey strange the trim doesn’t affect the stick as the trim tabs change the angle of the elevator, unlike a 109/190 where the whole stabiliser angle is changed. Still, as you say still a whole lot better than a spring loaded stick and the software improves all the time. cheers

Thanks for replying, I’m not sure how to take your “it’s OK”, is that a positive or negative it’s OK? does it differ much then compared to DCS? cheers

Excellent news, thanks for the reply, sounds as it should be now to check if it works in IL-2 yet, from the Moza website FAQ’s. Q: No force feedback when playing games? (Supported game list) A: As of early September 2024, the MOZA Flight products support games including (but not limited to) DCS World, X-Plane 11, X-Plane 12, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, Star Citizen, War Thunder, and IL-2 Sturmovik: Great Battles.

As it (Spitfire) has no “powered” flight controls, as in jets, I’m hoping that warbirds will be the best for FFB. can you describe if there’s any difference in wwii warbirds and jets.

When flying as the Navigator/Wireless-Operator in the Mosquito there are instruments that do not work, the fuel gauges for instance, do not show the fuel levels on any of the fuel gauges. The readings on some of the front panel instruments show different info' to what the pilot see's and often the propeller blades are not turning until the Mosquito is in the air. Most of the controls on the left side of the cockpit cannot be changed by the Navigator either. Cheers

In VR it's fine, 3D effect

Here is a link to the RAF weather reports for early 1944. https://digital.nmla.metoffice.gov.uk/io_6e544f21-c932-40bd-a640-d065701b351e/ For the 18 February got to page 77.

Nicely done Fenrir, I have also been planning this mission for a couple of days in the Mission Builder and actually found the RAF weather report for 18 Feb' 1944. I'll post a link to it up here later when I get on my main PC. Now I've got to work out whether to use Static or Dynamic weather to get it right, it's a shame the Channel map doesn't cover the whole route so I intend to use Biggin Hill for the start/end point, also, it didn't help that there are 4 TOCQUEVILLE'S in upper normandy but I like the one you've chosen. Now all we need is for a winter version of the Channel map to get it as authentic as possible.

Me and my buddy have seen this too.

Thanks for the help, all sorted now, I just have to learn a new app, Updater tool :thumbup:

Hi, I interrupted a patch/update this morning, so I could restart it and click the link to the changelog, but now it won't update and I'm "stuck" in version 41318. Thanks in advance

The LF IX, with Merlin 66 came out in mid '43, the K-4 was late '44, so a year and a half then :) Witch

Can we expect a 1944 version of the Spitfire at some stage? With the E wing, and a "clipped" option, drop-tanks and bombs, it will be able to carry out more historically accurate types of missions for the D-Day period, and onwards. It will also be able to fight against the current axis aircraft and ground targets as a contemporary, rather than being "1 to 1 1/2 years older" by comparison. E wing = 120 rounds of 20mm per gun + 250 rounds of .50" per gun. Cheers Witch

I just got these for the Vive and they're a GREAT improvement, slightly bigger FOV but as they are closer to your eyes it makes everything clearer further out to the edges of the lens https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/r.html?C=CR243XOHCVNM&K=A2HI3LXC2RIP0X&R=1R09AWZPODSBX&T=C&U=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fdp%2FB01HM4QB0Y%2Fref%3Dpe_1909131_77697121_tnp_email_TE_AMZLdp_1&A=KRLPSLQQKSROKNHSZJEAE8JVY14A&H=SFITA7AABQ1XDZL4ERYSUNTC4FQA&ref_=pe_1909131_77697121_tnp_email_TE_AMZLdp_1 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Or getting some fuel in the rear fuselage tank? Witch
