  1. I tried to find them, but I think they may be rare, or I suck at use search engines. However, take a look at this site, it's given me all kinds of ideas on switches... http://mechanical-components.globalspec.com/Industrial-Directory/switch_guard_toggle How about an emergency off button for a chaff/flare dispenser?? what an easy rig to build, it gives me an idea! http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Telemecanique-Mushroom-N-O-Push-Button-Switch-XB2A_W0QQitemZ320224095620QQihZ011QQcategoryZ58169QQtcZphotoQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1742.m153.l1262 what about buying long toggles and drilling your own hole in the guard?
  2. Great looking pit Tango!! The fuel shutoff handles look properly worn! What program do you use to paint the new textures?
  3. Have you tried (or can you use) the newest Xvid codec? I know I use it to compress my Fraps vids when using V-Dub...although it doesnt compress THAT much.
  4. While in the Real World, when a conversation turns to helicopters you immediately sieze the podium and begin informing everyone of the dangers of mast bumping, VRS, and dont forget the autorotation..............while eyes glance from side to side... but you dont let up and start lecturing on ground attack tactics, entering a quick hover and how to use the trim button, then taking a detour and marveling the crowd with the benefits of Kamov's contra-rotating blades. (and the danger of a rotor strike!) The lecture comes to a halt when one in the crowd asks "how do you know so much about Russian attack helicopters, anyway?" You respond, "oh I'm just a beginner..."
  5. Heh, I think i spent more time wondering what secrets those shortcuts on GA's desktop had in them! @ Skydoc, is that a 27' Cat? @ Sharkster, good job, mind if i use that....course my wife wouldn't miss the busted beauty if i put it on a pinhead!
  6. Still nothing in Abby/Chilliwack area.... London Drugs shows up as 'Back-ordered at warehouse'...nothing at Future Shop, mind you getting an answer from somebody there is ....
  7. Good flying Frazer!
  8. Because that would be too simple for everyone, and Saitek knows that nobody likes simple software.... ...and no word of a lie, i just fired up my saitek programming to see if i could copy my profile to post it up for the OP, and i got a BSOFD for my troubles.... my profile wont do you much good anyway, because I have remapped my ingame key bindings as well.
  9. Nice job Flatlander!! I've got an AV8R just waiting to be flanged into something else!
  10. Yes, the X52 throttle has mouse functions mapped, 2 buttons and mouse wheel. This allows you to click buttons and turn dials and knobs with the scroll wheel built in. If you want, you can also map mouse click to a button on the joystick.
  11. I had this same problem because i was running Vista and a Realtek audio card....I had to install the drivers to get my 3D sound back. If you are using vista, google the brand of your audio hardware, vista, and 3D sound, and you will most likely come across patches or drivers to help you.
  12. Thanks, I'll have to check in there from time to time!
  13. I've never encountered that error, sorry.
  14. Wow, nicely put together man!! That will machine some great parts...cant wait to see!
  15. sorry for offending anyone, i see now the comment was rude... I do not think the situation is funny whatsoever, like i said in my previous post, i was very close to sending my money as well...again, sorry for the rude post.
  16. I was very nearly out of pocket, so it seems.... but I guess since I didn't lose any cash, I am just a latin spouting muppet with 20/20 hindsight; albeit one that is still holding his cash!
  17. I have 3 LondonDrug stores within 1hour of where i live, and they all sell software. http://www.londondrugs.com/Cultures/en-US/Categories/Electronics/default.htm?BreadCrumbs=Electronics;Electronics&Catalog=Electronics&Sort=0&Page=1 Will check for myself if they are getting any stock; tomorrow.
  18. Thanks Matt! I will be checking out LondonDrugs then, and buying two copies thank you very much!
  19. Oh Oh oh Oh!!! nice throttle!! Also was thinking of doing FFB pedals for myself...do you know if its supported in game!!
  20. +1 Deadsmell... I've never used my 360 controller for a pc game yet, might be the one!
  21. It doesn't bother mine either, but it would slam an 8500's FPS through the ground!
  22. Thanks Jim! I have a feeling it may be going through a thorough testing by the ESA!
  23. I searched the internet high and low for weeks on a fix to make this mod run in fullscreen and could not find anything...
  24. In the options menu make sure you are not running in windowed mode, that may help to raise your FPS.
