  1. After some training, I managed to smoothly takeoff in the P51, FW190, Bf109, I16, but the Spitfire remains impossible to takeoff :( I tried all the techniques I used for the other planes: stick completely aft, stick on the right to avoid rolling left, small amount of right brakes, dancing on the rudder, whether applying them all or just combinations of some... nothing works. The Spitfire keeps turning left like crazy at start. Does somebody have any advice? Is there one of the other planes I could related to?
  2. Do you mean that for FW190 you need your stick fully back to lock the tailwheel? I thought I read from the manual that just a little stick backwards was enough. Maybe I haven't understood properly. I also read from the FW190 manual that you didn't need to let the stick move forward during the takeoff roll, that it was doing a 3-point takeoff. Once again, maybe I completely misunderstood.
  3. Now that I can taxi, takeoff and land the P51D almost with ease, which next WWII plane should I try? I'd like to go from easiest (I supposed this was the P51D) to hardest for taxi, takeoff and landing. These are the plane I have: FW190 Anton and Dora, Bf109, Spitfire and I16.
  4. A big thanks to both of you: yes my brake axis had to be inverted and I managed to finally land this P51!
  5. I'm new at trying to land the P51. I read several guides, watched several videos, but still can't land this plane. When hitting the ground, my speed is lower than 100 mph and my descent rate close to 0. I don't bounce, it seems almost like a perfect landing to me and then the nose decides to go down and hit the ground :( I don't break at all so it's not because I'm breaking too hard. I also tried to pull the stick fully aft, but whether I do it or not doesn't change anything. Does anybody have any clue what I'm doing wrong or what I should do to avoid this problem?
  6. I reinstalled CTS from scratch, redownloaded everything (full update), but still gets this issue. The profile starts indeed and let me switch planes, but my warthog throttle is not recognized in DCS. So I checked further and this ID for which there's an error corresponds to my Warthog throttle. It's no longer integrated into the virtual controller, but stays separate.
  7. When I launch the profile, I get the following error Error: (internal) cannot associate a filter with the selected USB HID device "VID_044F&PID_0404" I did a full update and retried, but same error... Is there something I could try before reinstalling CTS from scratch? my config: Warthog stick+throttle, MFG rudder, 2 MFDs
  8. I just bought the CEII and the Yak52, which are not yet supported. In the documentation, I read that you can use the generic DirectX profile, but if you want to use it for different airplanes, with different number of engines, landing gear behavior, etc... do you have to duplicate this profile? And if yes, how would you do?
  9. There are obvious bugs, like the missing kneeboard, that haven't been fixed for months. And this forum seems very quiet. Is the development team still active? Do they have another forum where they want you to register bugs?
  10. As always, you’re very reactive and helpful. Thanks a lot !!!
  11. Since I tried the I16 right after loading DCS, I switched from the default A10-C profile (the one from CTS)
  12. any news on this issue? We're in March 2020 and kneeboard still doesn't display, neither with K or right-shift-K (and yes, these keys are associated with kneeboard display commands in my settings and they're recognized in the settings)
  13. Selecting I16 profile returns following error: "Runtime Error: Divide by zero in AirBrakeProc ( line 1704 in DCS/DCS_Global_Subs.tmc )Aborting script (check output above for reason)... Script stopped!" My config: Warthog stick & throttle, MFG rudder pedals, 2 thrustmaster MFCDs
  14. SU25T doesn't have any bindings for the sensors (e.g. E/O, LLTV). They should be assigned to the Left MFD OSB 2-4 according to the doc. I reinstalled CTS from scratch, reloaded the bindings from the profiles, but they're still not there. My setup: Warthog stick and throttle, TrackIR, 2 MFDs
  15. Thanks for your links! #1 and #2 are Chuck's guides, which I already have. They're great for quick reference, but they're not as deep as an actual manual #3 is an actual manual. However, it says its distribution is not authorised "outside of US Government agencies and their contractors". So I'm not sure if it's safe to download it. Razbam managed to create good manuals for the MiG 19 and the Mirage 2000, which I both have. So why not for the AV8?
  16. Thanks. Here are the additional parameters you requested: I use warthog and trackir
  17. Are we ever going to get a full blown manual for the AV8, like the manual of the A10C? For now, it looks like to be a pocket manual and even so, it's not even complete.
  18. I can no longer select MiG 21 profile. I get a "syntax error" issue. I rebuilt the script, but still same error
  19. The encoders I used are just plain KY-40 encoders I found on Amazon (like here). They're probably not as good as the ones from LeoBodnar, but so far they work fine. I didn't notice any reverse direction issue.
  20. I created this button box to accommodate most if not all of the modern jets UFCs. If anybody is interested, I left the instructions on how to build it here: https://www.instructables.com/id/Universal-UFC-for-Plane-Simulators-for-Less-Than-1/
  21. Maybe I did something wrong, but on the C101CC, there's no binding for: - unlock of the gun trigger - unlock of the release button I tried to import both the C101 and DX_C101 keyboard and virtual thrustmaster profiles but the weapons binding don't initialize properly
