Yes! I am in for a full fidelity su-25a! There are those magic years from the mid 60s to mid 90s where everything was more interesting in aviation and motor racing.

Make it a server option as everything else so if you fly daily on a given server, your fatigue gets better till some cap and if somebody only flies twice a week he got the handicap. With that option the different communities can decide which route they go. It wouldn't make much sense to force it on everybody, if you only do 2hrs a week dogfighting while other squadrons fly daily 3hr sorties.

Please keep us informed. I'm thinking since a couple of months to upgrade my stick on the msffb2, but i have to get a second one before i make an attempt in case i break something. I cannot go back to a dead stick. If you can manage to keep the costs below 1k i will start saving for one.

Unplug your controller or deactivate the usb device in the device manager. I have to unplug or deactivate every controller for any game that runs on unity engine just to be able to play the damn game with the gamepad. If it's to much trouble to unplug that thing everytime, invest in a proper controller with a driver. There are enough people using dcs with a gamepad in some way.

Aruco Marker and Opentrack software.

I already stole the A10C with combined arms on an amazon deal for 15 euro! Seems like i am setting sail on a 10euro upgrade! :D

Currently i am using a Delanclip Fusion, wireless with a ps3 eye cam bought also pre modified and it works like a charm with opentrack. I also had a trackhat wireless clip but the battery is much better on the delanclip. I also used a 3dof edtracker wireless but it didn't worked that well in my case.

My personal 2 cents: There were a lot of mistakes made which are all about communication. Nobody knew that the module get a rewrite with a different texture file, which is really great if it performs as described. Then the whole thing gets out of early access a week before the new patch drops without an announcement at all. And my personal biggest disappointment is the fact, that there is no sorry at all. I'm maybe a bit oldschool, but i like to here a sorry if somebody ****s something up and if an adult is not able to say sorry, for a mistake he made, i'm simply done with that person. No honesty no trust. I am happy if the 3 modules i bought get better over time, but i will not buy anything till there are a lot of praising threads and good reviews about a new module out of EA. @Nineline and Bignewy: You 2 guys do a really fantastic job in these forums! I appreciate your work and effort to keep the ship sailing! Thank you guys you are great!

Another thing to add from my point of view at the harrier and mig19 is the lack of ffb. I know we ffb users are a minority, but why is it possible that the mb339 and the community a4 have it implemented without a sdk and razbam is not able to do it, while every other module i purchased has it implemented?

from wikipedia: The Igla–1M missile consists of a Ground Power Supply Source (GPSS), Launching Tube, Launching Mechanism & Missile (9M313–1). The wiring is already at the pylons so no need for an extra wire directly to the igla itself. And its an igla, i mean except for the missile itself and the ir seeker and all that technology in the missile itself, its not much different to an s8.

I used 4 different headtrackers sofar, my first one was a diy solution with a normal webcam which didn't worked that well. Then i bought an edtracker (http://edtracker.org.uk/) which was the wireless version but i had a lot of interference with the signal and to many wlan signals around my place. After that i went for a trackhat (https://www.trackhat.org/), also the wireless solution which served me quite some time but the battery was a bit of a let down which lasted on my device only 3-3,5 hours. Then i went for the delanclip fusion (https://delanengineering.com/) which is sofar the best device i bought. So my recommendation is buy a complete package of the delanclip / delanclip fusion (for wireless). For me its the best bang for buck and still a lot cheaper than track ir. I just saw pictures of the tir clips but they don't look like a quality build for that amount of money. If you own a throttle with a minijoystick you could also use that, but if you got used to headtracking there is nothing that comes close to the experience. There are also some solutions where you put your phone on your head and use the gyro sensor so it tracks your headmovement. Or if you own a good webcam you could print a piece of paper with some code on it and use it as a tracking device. Its called Aruco Marker. And than there is also Facetracknoir, which is a program you can use that tracks your face instead of ir lights or a paper marker. Just some ideas ;)

You could tweak the spring on the t-16000 with 2 zipties from a mod i found on youtube. First vid shows the difference, second vid shows how to do it. Did it on mine before i got my old ffb2 going again, even choppers were much better to handle with the softer spring.

Just did a bit of free flight but i wasn't able to get anywhere near a blackout with pulling positive gs in all sorts of maneuvers. While on the other hand there was an instant blackout when i rapidly pulled negative gs.

This gentleman seems able to build all sorts of different throttles and boxes. https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145129 I i like his creations but haven't got the change to buy one for myself yet. [url=https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=145129][/url]

yeah check the slider or else dcs thinks its an regular joystick axis with a center. Maybe try to reassign the axis again.

Hello VKB i have a quick question, will the grip work without being attached to the base? I have a ms ffb2 and i wanna mod a different grip to it and it would be the best solution for me if i could plug in the base and use the buttons and encoders as an extra box but would have attached the grip on to my ffb2 with working buttons and without a lot of tinkering.

Forcefeedback works for me in every module except the av8b and mig19 from razbam. The fbw modules don't move the stick when you trim but still have ffb and you can feel the plane too. av8b and mig19 feel like a dead centered spring. But trimming with the stick keeping in place works on every module for me which have that function also visually modeled. Even the FC3 planes and some free mods like the mentioned mb339 and a4c. And it doesn't matter if you don't get realistic forces you just have to adapt to the force range of your ffb device.

As you already own the l-39 maybe you should get the kursant campaign for it, its basically a training campaign. https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/shop/campaigns/l-39_albatros_kursant/

You could also program your modifier button on the stick to function like a toggle(on/off) button and still use the ingame modifier solution to bind it. The difference would be that through your joystick software the button is setup as an on/off toggle, so the modifier would be pressed until you press it again. At least its possible with my target software from thrustmaster so i think it should be possible also with the vkb software. When you set the modifier in DCS it doesn't care on which device the button is located. I use my 3 buttons on the twcs throttle as modifiers for the throttle hats and also on buttons and the hat on my ms ffb2 stick. But i have to press 2, 3 or 4 buttons at the same time :)

There are default profiles for all your controls when you start the first time. I would recommend you look at chucks guides for the module you wanna fly and use his recommendations on the hotas layout for the chosen module. You can find them here: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=135765

I think it will be handled in a similar way like the black shark. Users who already own the module will get a discount on the new upgrade, while new users are only able to buy the new version. The only difference i can see would be that the old model still gets a visual upgrade and is usable if you don't purchase the upgrade to the new module, while in black shark you were kinda forced to buy the upgrade to keep the ka50 playable within dcs world.

Just a heads up, if you trim with your software you have to make sure every time you start the aircraft your stick has to be in the same position as the virtual stick. For example on the f14 hot start campaign you start on the catapult ready for take off with the stick trimmed forward.

Because all other modules got it, they managed to get it to work on their mirage (i was just a bit confused since i forgot the stick won't trim on fbw aircrafts) and believe it or not ffb is the same as vr, you can't go back to a dead stick. Harrier and mig-19 miss both the trim function of the stick. if you trim both planes you can see the stick move forward and staying in position. while my stick keeps being centered and feeling the same regardless of movements. In other modules it doesn't feel like a simulated centered spring. The m2000c seems totally ok i forgot that the stick doesn't move because it's a fbw jet like the hornet. But harrier and mig-19 are completely lifeless on my end, maybe i have to do a repair/reinstall.

So i guess no answer in 3 weeks is also some kind of answer. A shame as i really wanted that 23, seems like i have to rely on user made mods at least those are able to implement ffb right away. Maybe you should put a note into the module description in the shop that there is no ffb support, just to avoid future customers complaining about it.
