  1. They even started on it, but back tracked. No idea why. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  2. Not sure what that means, but whatever works for you! The FFB2 is as precise as it gets. Less resolution than newer ones of course. It's easily observable in the controls indicator, DBview, VPC control panel or whatever. The stick has a few mm in the centre where it doesn't register any input. I use an extension so it's even more observable for me. One gets used to it, mostly in AAR, and in helicopters it doesn't matters as much, as one is not trimmed in the centre. Cheers!
  3. I know! [emoji1] Thanks! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  4. It only means that if effects are not simulated in DirectX, you will not get them. That's were telemetry shines, you can pick and choose the effects and their force to your liking. I'm sure if someone put their mind to it, they could rip and modify the firmware, make new drivers and add telemetry support. That said it's probably better to get a more modern one with "TM+" grip support and stronger motors. My main issue is the FFB2, is the hardware defined deadzone, hence the sloppiness in the centre. You probably haven't noticed since you haven't taped over the sensor. Cheers! No idea. My PC died, and I haven't bothered to fix it, so I've passed on the latest modules. (FFS haven't been to Iraq and Germany yet and none of the new map updates ) Just try to tape it over. You should have done that a long time ago in any case.
  5. That's to prevent it from wacking your cat. Just tape over or fill the holes with silicon. Or do as I did. Open the grip and remove the sensor. If you don't want to cut the cables, you must open the base as well. I have five of them, and none of them has broken. None of them are the "red" version. So no sticky rubber too. Which happened to my MS mouse, which is going on 27 years and still strong apart from the rubber issue, which was fixed with Autoglym rubber fix.
  6. Click in tbe Airfield icon. Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  7. Never heard about Grease Lightning?
  8. Hopefully some Rhino users can help you out. The MS SW FFB2 doesn't use telemetry, only what DCS feeds it, so it's much simpler. Let's pretend you're not using telemetry for a second. The answer is yes. By default DCS is incorrectly programmed, at least for the MS. The FFB axis are swapped. Meaning X is Y. It has nothing to do with other axis. So, if I don't swap. When I trim the stick will go left or right. Instead of back and forth. Seems Mag3 got it partially right. Except that Y is reversed. That means I just go into the FFB tune, (button) for the MS in the Controls Settings, and I check invert for the Y axis, and I'm done. But it seems all FFB devices behave differently, so hopefully, like I wrote above. Someone with a Rhino can help you out. @Hiob Maybe? Cheers!
  9. Six maps had updates. What do you expect? Uninstall some of the maps, perform a full repair. Update. Then install the maps one by one. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  10. Nah, that just switches between windows. The keybind for TM is LCtrl+LShft+Esc. While that might not work inside DCS, and defo not if SRS is installed, as that has the same default hot key, for some reason. [emoji2373] Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  11. Ah, so in the real aircraft the stick doesn't move during the test? No wonder why it fails then. [emoji1303] Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  12. Totally agree! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  13. To be honest I believe he had a lot on his dance card. There were also rumors of Blackhawks and Eurocopters. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  14. Have you set the correct FFB axis? It seems that's an issue for some. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  15. Some said PC. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  16. Can't believe how much time I spent the first time setting things up until I started using Helios. Then it kind of dawned on me because you get the visual representation. [emoji4] Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  17. For my MS SW FFB2 I have to swap axis in all modules. Open control settings. Click on the FFB2 column, click the FFB tune button on the bottom. Then click swap axis. Cheers! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  18. I want this so bad! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  19. @Hawkeye_UK You said "rivet counters" you bad bad boy! [emoji6] Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  20. One learns something new every day! Thanks! Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  21. Right! Then I saw it somewhere else. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  22. They did mention it in the changelog, didn't they? Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  23. There's nothing special about the cables. It's easy make at home if you got rudimentary skills. EDIT: So yes, any TM compatible extension/cable should work fine with the grip. Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
  24. Great! I usually recommend renaming the folder instead of deleting it. Backups are great though!
  25. Ah, I see. Thought you to were using OpenTrack. Thanks anyway! [emoji1303] Sent from my SM-A536B using Tapatalk
