  1. I have to admit it´s tempting, despite me being completely happy with my upgraded Cougar throttle!
  2. I use the tacan bug. It's moving counter clockwise as I fly downwind. When it reaches my "west" position, I wait for the next dot, and then begin my turn.
  3. Just read the carrier positions herself as to the wind faces the angle deck. So the wind bearing should be BRC minus 9 degrees
  4. Watch out for a overheating amp, apparently it's a redundant issue with bk Also you could improve the isolation between the chair and floor, so the energy remains in the chair frame and eventually, your ass
  5. yes I do customize effects for every airframe. I don´t think you need simultaneous output, that´s for jetseat + shakers Booster could help if your amp is providing less power than it should, but it might reduce lifespan. Bear in mind every rig, chair/cockpit/amps/shaker is different so we can share settings but they don´t replicate the same feeling.
  6. You simply could edit the mission weather, add wind coming from north to south so the wind faces your aircraft.
  7. I would take what you see in the trailer with a pinch of salt, check the comments where they credit other company for the engine nozzles. The very same the pilot looks real to me, not the intended 3d pilot model like some assume.
  8. just saying that´s not a bad PC to run VR
  9. looks fantastic
  10. Another option is buying hall sensor upgrade kits for your current pedals. That opinion you quoted sounds lue me lol. I would add VKB only cheap part is the pricetage. Amazing quality and building and engineering.
  11. Appreciated your work, thx
  12. I guess 3rd party devs need some time to catch up
  13. Does Leap motion work with all DCS modules?
  14. I bought a Virpil desk mount, which I place centered. Joy base at the botton, then handcrafted some L-shaped brackets for left and right MFD. The desk mount has drilled holes all long the vertical side, so it´s easy to place the MFDs at the right height. The icing on the cake is applying a small rounded adhesive silicone pad to each center button of each column and row. So orientating myself by touch is quite easy Then I handcrafted a U-shape bracket at the top of the mount, inverted. That´s where I placed the BuddyFox A-10 UFC, a great piece of hardware. Yesterday I received a F-16 ICP unit I bought from an Italian user, I need to figure it out how to place the device. And finally by Xmas I bought a programmable keyboard to replicate Hornet/Harrier UFC. It´s just 24 keys, I will print some covers and add again the silicone pads on certain keys for orientation purposes as well. If you are on Facebook, I have posted several times my rig over there across different DCS groups, let me know by private message if you are interested.
  15. sheet metal worker here for a few years, congrats on your work.
  16. For me, yes it does indeed. I fly a lot of traffic patterns with my modules, and find the gear lever a massive inmersion booster. Much more than pressing a button from Warthog throttle or clicking one of the small buttons from the PointCtrl finger unit. What´s more, the lever allows me to operate the gear while keeping my eyes out of the cockpit, with muscle memory I find the lever easily. Tomorrow it will arrive a F-16 ICP. And by xmas I bought a programmable keyboard for Hornet/Harrier UFC. I like the best of two worlds, physical devices and VR.
  17. As usual you only read issues on forums, none starts a thread saying "I'm happy with this stick". I like the stick, it's also the replica for Harrier, F15C and f15e. It also fits quite well the f14.
  18. I understand your frustration but it's what it is. It's also worthy mentioning the stated delivery time is a goal, not a fact.
  19. Some times DCS has a hard time understanding which MFD is which. Or maybe you change the ID via TARGET, and the default MFD 1 and MFD 2 assignments got updated and overrode your settings.
  20. As far as I know, each sim interacts with the mouse in VR in a particular way. DCS is the sim the device is tuned for especifically.
  21. what´s exactly the issue?
  22. I got a takeoff panel. Could I assign more than one axis ingame for the same pot, pnl light?
  23. What about placing a small wired/wireless NumPad only keyboard close to your throttle and assign thing there. It could be a cheap solution.
