Because my playing space is limited (live in a caravan) I decided pedals were not practical. So I spent the whole afternoon practising, and after dozens of takeoffs I am happy I have takeoffs to an acceptable level. Not perfectly smooth, but not too bad. Now all I have to do is get the landing correct :)

I have managed to takeoff reasonably often without dying (in full simulation, no assist) using the joystick twist on my x55 for rudder control, but they are pretty ugly takeoffs no matter how much I pulse the rudder inputs and adjust the rudder control curves Has anyone managed to use the same sort of rudder control (joystick twist) to achieve graceful takeoffs or is it just impossible to do it well without pedals? Why could they not have increased the toe-in on the undercarriage :)

Thanks for the help everyone, much appreciated :)

I do not understand, I thought by having pixel density set at 1.0 that would turn off in-game Supersampling and I could therefore run the Steam VR SS at 1.5?

I have a reasonable PC running a Vive VR headset: GTX1080, 12GB RAM, i7-6700HG CPU @ 2.6 GHz , Windows 10. I have run lots of VR games including Elite Dangerous without problem. I tried DCS world on 1.5 in VR , it ran well and I liked it so decided to buy DCS 2 Normandy/WW2 objects/Spitfire from the Eagle store. I can run Normandy on the 'Low' preset in VR, with pixel density at 1.0 and the Steam VR Supersampling at 1.5 - it runs ok and looks reasonable. As soon as I use any other preset such as Medium or Virtual, the game crashes with a mix of out of memory messages or 'DCS.exe has stopped working' when I load any plane up for free flight. I opened a ticket with Eagle support, and after checking the crash logs and my DxDiag log they are unable to help me and said I should post here. Is this normal? Does anyone have any suggestions? In other games when I load the graphics up too much they slow down and get jerky, not crash. I have turned off anything dragging on PC resources such as Vipre antivirus and the WD backup engine.
