  1. Never used CH software. Just plug and play, calibrate with windows works great in Win10. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. Tried the Gazelle Mini-gun for the first time last night in multiplayer and had a few issues. The helicopter was fully started before the co-pilot/gunner entered so there shouldn't be a sync issue. The first couple of times flying a clunk sound was heard from the engine and the helo lost rpm and crashed. This only happened two time and we were able to finally fly on the third try. The other problem was that neither of us could get the min-gun to fire in MP. No problems firing when the co-pilot exited and the pilot switched seat position to the mini-gun. Unrelated side note: Would love to see the TV/camera put back in the mini-gun version so it can be used as an effective scout helo with the ability to see targets from a distance while obtaining range and bearing so target coordinates can be passed to strikers.
  3. Happened last night while I was hovering quite high over a friendly airfield to spot incoming tanks in the distance. Interesting about taking off after auto-start, that's a possibility. It's happened so many times that I really can't pinpoint the reason. Repeatedly landing and taking off while sling loading can cause the auto pilot channels to go out too. Most often it is while trying to engage moving vehicles. Recently I have spoken to two others that have experienced the auto pilot channels suddenly going off so I don't think it will be a HOTAS issue but will definitely check over my controls to make sure. Thanks for the reply and suggestions.
  4. thanks thrustvector, sounds similar. I too think it may have to do with the range finding and slewing the shkval. Now that I think more about it, it seems to happen more when engaging a moving target while slewing and attempting to get a lock.
  5. I am having the same problem. All of a sudden while in a stable hover acquiring targets in the shkval, the auto pilot channels all go out and the helicopter is yawing all over the place out of control. Completely unpredictable. I thought that maybe auto hover might be the cause but it happened last night with auto hover off. Turn on TGT and Ground Moving Target are on and the Shkval is locked on a point or target when this happens usually. I've also had the auto pilot channels go out like this when flying and sling loading but mainly when working targets in the shkval. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening? Thanks!
  6. Go to the UI Layer at the bottom of the control selection list for each aircraft. Map the VR Center. You'll just have to move your head around to where you want it and center to get it to stay. UI Layer also has VR Zoom and Chat off/On which I find handy to quickly see the chat then get it off the screen.
  7. I just checked my axis tune on the A-10C and Viggen for the mini-stick and all I have set is the deadzone of 20 with default curve and saturation. The Ka-50 though was really a fast slew with the mini-stick (I think its related to just that module because the others are fine). I tired some various saturations and curves but could never find the right mix of quick but fine tuned so I use the mini-stick for a faster slew and then mapped the keyboard slew commands for a fine tuned approach.
  8. I have a full CH controller setup and the mini-stick on the throttle works great for slewing the TGP or any type of cursor. I don't use the CH software and just assign the axis in DCS. Just add a dead zone of about 20 to the mini-stick so it stops any minor jitter. I calibrated mine about eight months ago when I got them and haven't had to recalibrate yet. Nice products for the price too. I would highly recommend them.
  9. I'm in VR and just started using the DCS KneeBoardBuilder. Awesome utility! Totally changed my VR experience. No more peeking through the nose hole to look at reference material. It crashed on me too at first when opening the exe normally. Try right clicking on it and run as administrator. Worked for me. So far I've just added my HOTAS mappings for each aircraft and in the general group have added threat and Nav/Beacon lists found on the internet. A nice feature is being able to omit all of the default airport maps. Maybe I haven't figured it out yet but it doesn't seem to like landscape PDF files/pictures which will cut them off or warp them a bit.
  10. Hi, L-39 by leaps and bounds! Check this link out to a previous post I remembered seeing. I couldn't say it better than that : ) https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=176031
