Ohhhh Project cars AND ETS2/ATS, now that I will be very very interested in, funnily enough was playing both just last night and found myself wishing I could use my jetseat for it. :) Just requested to join group on FB, is that all I need to do, to help test the software Andre? Certainly will be a first day purchase. Cowboy10uk

+1 I used to live on Subsim when I was living silent hunter, really really happy to see its still about. Cowboy10uk

:O Count me in, I love Silent hunter. Still using 3 and GWX like many. 5 was fun with the fully walkable interior but I felt something was missing. Maybe I should take another look and see what the latest mods are. This looks great fun mind you. Cowboy10uk

Sadly back to work for another 6 days on Sat mate. Shifts are great in one respect but a pain in the behind if I want to arrange anything social. Will give you a shout next week and try and sort something out bud. Cowboy10uk
-
Yes mate. 1.5.3. Not sure when it came out. Been stuck at work last 6 days, so been a good week since I turned it on. Cowboy10uk

Installed an update today on 1.5 open beta. Coordinated turns were no longer a problem, seemed to work perfectly, so I'm guessing there's a FM update in it. Cowboy10uk
-
I'm assuming the patch that I installed today included the new FM changes, if so great job. No sliding forward and damn I could even lift her into the hover and do coordinated turns without diving out of the sky. :) Granted still ended up a flaming wreck, but that was down to myself having no skills whatsoever. ;) The gazelle was a joy to fly. Whatever updated today, made a huge difference. Cowboy10uk

Fuel cutoff lever and brake - Axis working?
Cowboy10uk replied to Ratcatcher's topic in SA-342M Gazelle
Using the thrust master warthog throttle for rotor brake and throttle with no issues here. Axes works fine. Cowboy10uk -
That is fantastic news Thankyou, not that I had any doubt. Only problem now is, I can't blame the model for my bad flying. ;) Cowboy10uk

Now that's some proper testing. Just wondering if you can tell us, how he found it? I'm absolutely loving the challenge, and damn it has certainly improved my flying of the Huey, as I'm now used to making smaller inputs. Beautiful aircraft and module. Cowboy10uk

Hi guys, used this with the Hawk for the first time last night. However I seem to have an issue, that I get no effects while on the ground. No engine or taxing vibration whatsoever. When I'm flying, the I can feel all G effects and wing shudder, Stalls with no issues whatsoever. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue or any idea what setting I need to change to solve this. All other aircraft that I've tried, Huey, Gazelle, Mirage seem to work fine. Cowboy10uk

Well that's her purchased ready. :) now just to sit back and wait. Cowboy10uk

Well just did another 30 mins flying in the Gazelle, trying to get in 30 mins everyday, and damn my flying is coming on leaps and bounds, started on enclosed LZs today, still not overly pretty as I tend to over correct as I transition from forward flight into a hover, but still managed to get in and out of them ok and no hard landings today at all. I then switched back over to my beloved Huey, so I didn't start to get skill fade. I was very presently surprised to find her smooth to handle, she seemed so placid compared tomlastvtime I flew her, I'm guessing as the Gazelle is such a sensitive young lady, the delicate muscle memory that is being imprinted so I can control her is being transferred over to when I fly the Huey. It now makes perfect sense why the Brits used Gazelles to train pilots, once you get used to the sensitivity needed to fly the Gazelle, you have the skills for good smooth flight for any other helo. I think it's fair to say that if you want to learn how to fly Helos and certainly in DCS, then start with the Gazelle, put the hours in learning her, controlling her, navigation, night flying, landings, confined landings, hovering and then and only then the weapon systems. When you then move up a level to the Huey and then again to the MI8, you will find it so so much easier. Polychop, I've said it before and I'll say it again, well done, THANKYOU this helo is amazing. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the FM in any shape way or form, it's purely down to getting used to the sensitivity needed to fly her, basically if you see the cyclic moving, you're being too heavy handed.

Out of interest, how much clearer is the CV1, I love the DK2, but the resolution just isn't there. Is it possible to finally read the dials and switches, spot targets etc or is it still blurry? That's a great idea though, 2 players in VR operating a Gazelle, damn what an exciting prospect. Cowboy10uk

Hi guys, I know no ones Intrested, but I'm over the moon, I've just spent an hr flying this magnificent helo and it didn't kill me, granted she made need a wee bit of work in the hanger tonight, but hey what's a few rotor blades between friends. ;) luckily I was only at 5ft when I flew backwards into a aircraft burn, but hey, I still landed it. :) After days of not even being able to take off, it started coming together today, sure the first few take offs were not pretty, but slowly I started to take off constantly and in the direction I wanted to go. ;). My landings again were not pretty but I was again starting to get used to her, and managing to get her on the ground in one piece every time, apart from the last one. :) Granted I wasn't landing where I was planning to, but that's not the gazelles fault, I have never been able to work out the correct approach in ANY helo I'm flying, I always without fail, either end up hovering at 50ft, or under or overshoot where I was aiming to land. I don't think I've once managed to land where I first planned to. Anyhow, just wanted to say Thankyou Polychop, she is a wonderful aircraft, think I need a good few hours yet, before I can even think about moving onto the weapon systems, but damn what a challenge. I thought the Huey was hard to learn. :D Cowboy10uk
-
Thanks for that, wow Solo in the first 11 hrs. :O I've not even managed a successful landing in that. :helpsmilie: So then, as today is house cleaning day, daughters in Nursury, wife's at work. I feel it is my duty to abandon the house cleaning, and get some practice in instead, I'm obviously behind the curve. ;) Think she will buy it. :pilotfly: Cowboy10uk

Capt Zeen UH-1H Helios profile ! !
Cowboy10uk replied to Capt Zeen's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Just setup this profile, it's downright stunning, Thankyou very very much Capt Zeen. I do have one slight issue with mine, and wondering if others can check their profiles, but my radar alt switch on the top panel doesn't appear to be working, can I just check if it's working for others or not.

Cowboy10uk replied to Capt Zeen's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
Did you add any lines into export.lua to get the Saitek panel to work initially. I know I had to copy and past my simshacker.lua into the new export.lua to get it working again. Check both export Luas, and see if there's anything different, apart from the UH1 lines of course. Cowboy10uk -

:O just stunning sir, absolutely fantastic. Sadly I just finished my Huey flight for the day, before I spotted this, but rest assured, she will be installed before takeoff tomorrow. Thankyou yet again. Cowboy10uk -
Wasn't getting any response through the jetseat at all through the war thunder client, will have another look later today. It may just be a setting I've missed. Cheers Bignewy I'll get that downloaded as well asap. Cowboy10uk

out of intrest, I'm just about to try warthunder and I see the jetseat is supported, however whenever I go into jetseat control panel, its not saying the seat is disconnected and I'm getting a access violation error? sadly as everything is in Russian regarding this seat I cant troubleshoot, can anyone help please. I'm using control panel version 1.3.1.1 but have no idea if there is another version out there. many thanks Cowboy10uk
