  1. I do have a 115mm curved I got from Ebay like your first pic. I like messing around with different setups for heli flying, so 3d printing is the way to go to test stuff out.
  2. I'm 50% through printing this and just noticed it as well. Wish I'd seen your post before printing, I could have edited the file. Just hope some glue will fix it up. Did a quick import into Tinkercad, can easily see what the problem is.
  3. Thank you for posting this. Printed today, and it worked great. You did a really good job with the drawings. I added a 50mm extension, works just fine with the TM Ava base.
  4. Same as when I boresight from the pilots seat, nothing to see there. It's simply bugged and needs to be fixed. Sure, you can get it close, but nowhere near close enough. I can boresight dead on in about 10 seconds in the Pilots seat, front seat should be the same, yet it's a mess. And no amount of moving your eye point, viewpoint, fixes it. It's simply broken. No sense discussing it any further, enough people have reported the issue, it just needs addressing. Pilot seat Boresighting is a non issue, works as it should, very accurate, front seat is a totally different story, that isn't fixed by moving your eye/body position, period. The fact it's so easy to do in the Pilot's seat, yet is far off when in the front seat, should tell you something is wrong with the front seat Boresighting mechanics. The fix is a hot start, move to the front seat, and leave the boresight untouched. Then it's as accurate as the pilots seat after manually boresighting.
  5. Works fine hot start, without boresighting. The guns as accurate as when I boresight in the Pilots seat. Anything to do with a cold start, and it's impossible to boresight in that front seat. Moving to the front seat after a hot start, and boresighting after George has done it, is also a no go, you'll never get it lined up again.
  6. I can't hit a barn door 100' straight in front of me with the gun. In the pilots seat I can hit a fly from 1000', no issues at all. I only play in vr, headset is a Quest 2. I'm left eye dominant, and have tried setting HMD Eye Renderer to all three settings with no difference. One issue I do notice is that everything in the front seat is double if I use Both Eyes as Eye Renderer when trying to Boresight, although looking outside the cockpit is fine. I've adjusted the seat position untill I'm blue in the face, also makes no difference. Aim is still way off. How are you guys in vr aligning the Boresight from the front seat, I'm at a loss, and have spnet hours trying to get it sorted. Again, Boresighting in the Pilots seat works great, have no trouble at all hitting stuff with the gun, front seat, forget it. I see this post was moved. I posted this in Bugs and Problems, because something is wrong with front seat Boresighting in vr. Boresighting works perfectly fine from the pilots seat, and not in the front seat, thats a "Bug/Problem". The issue may be vr headset specific, which I'm thinking it is, but even that is a "Problem".
  7. Hey guys. I've downloaded the BS2 Trial, and I'm playing around with the PVI-800, trying to fly to an "Airfield". I've gone through the Training, and all works fine. I'm now using a mission I created in the Nevada map. I've created waypoints in the mission editor, and have no issues flying on autopilot to any waypoint, 1 through 4. Problem is with an "Airfield". I have the proper coordinates for Nellis, and I've entered them in the PVI-800 for Airfield 2, correctly. While enroute to say WP 2, I'm selecting "Airfield" then 2 on the PVI-800, issue is the aircraft is not turning to the chosen "Airfield", it just keeps heading to the current "Waypoint". It's one of the steps in the navigation training and it works fine, I've no idea why it isn't working now, thoughts? I'm sure it's a step I've missed, but I've no idea what it might be. If I call up "Airfield" 2 on the PVI-800, the correct coordinates are displayed, 36 14.1 115 01.9, if that helps. I've also changed the "Units" for lat lon in the PVI-800. Reading the manual it looks like it might be a Mission Editor thing? I have to put a landing airport in the mission editor? To get to Nellis I guess I need to enter it as a waypoint in the PVI-800 , I'm assuming. Ok, still not working. I've entered Nellis as WP5, but the aircraft will not fly there. I see all my other waypoints have a red dot beside the longitude, the ones that were set in the mission editor, but wp5, the one I manually entered does not have the red dot lit up beside the longitude. Must be the problem but I'm unsure how to fix it. Edit: Sorted out. When entering the latitude I need to hit "0+", when entering the longitude I need to hit "1-", that's what I was missing, east west setting. It all works out fine, and the aircraft correctly flies to the manually entered waypoint.
  8. This is my system of course. Find your saved games, and put the folder with the 2 files in the Missions folder. The 2 files are inside Winter_Bridgehead on my system. C:\Users\musko\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Missions\Winter_Bridgehead
  9. Your points are also valid, but I disagree with one thing you said. The political weaponization of social media sites "does matter", and needs to end today, especially on Facebook. Everywhere you go on the internet someone is collecting data about you, it's how it's used that matters. It's too late to worry about whether it's being done or not, we're long past being able to do anything about it. But we can sure raise our voices about how that information is used.
  10. Well said, and I agree with everything stated. People need to understand the motives behind this move by Facebook, and what they stand for. If political discussion isn't allowed here, then perhaps you should remove any post where Facebook is mentioned, including this whole thread. Look at the anger, and backlash this move has received. It's not just a general dislike of Facebook, it's a hatred of what they stand for politically.
  11. Thank you.
  12. I've had a few crashes as well in the A10C in simple missions I created. Sent logs in.
  13. All sounds good to me, wallet will be ready.
  14. My control profiles were "changed/different" after this update as well. Didn't notice until I took off of course, but I did have to reassign a bunch of things.
