I can't remember exactly which type this is, as I purchased it more than 5 years ago for my Baur F series pedals. The one below looks similar, and would probably work fine: Amazon.com: Krace CNC Motorcycle Steering Damper Stabilizer Linear Fit Yamaha YZF R1／R3／R6／R15／R125／R25 FZ1 FZ8 FZ09 MT09 GSXR 600 750 1000 GSX1300R CBR600RR 1000RR CB400 CB1000 ZX6R ZX14R : Automotive As far as the mount, it's just a pipe hangar clamp from the hardware store, and some flat washers for stand off from my Monstertech setup.

Can confirm. Just flew the Ka-50 Deployment campaign mission 10, and flew back under NVGs to the FARP post mission. Worse than the most terrifying illumination I've seen under NVGs IRL. (Just realized this is under 2D video bugs, but I was using VR, same issue).

Hey Chuls, any chance of having spring force hold the stick centered, unless you have an aircraft model loaded? Since I use an extension, mine always falls to the side after I connect CLS2.

Thanks, sure thing! It's a split-ring hangar from the plumbing section of Lowe's. I've had it awhile, as I used it on a previous collective before I got the Virpil. I can't remember the exact size, or brand.

Just added this to my Rotor TCS Plus. So far, I like it.

Does the PVI-800 draw a new track line from your present position every time you select a waypoint, or is it always going to use the track from the flight plan?

Ok, thanks. Sounds like basic instrument stuff (push the head of the needle, pull the tail of the needle). I think I probably haven't had the DH-DT switch in the right position, so it wasn't behaving like I thought it should.

I've been trying to understand this. My brain doesn't really think in Russian, I guess. Manual mode for heading and track on the HSI are self-explanatory I guess, but for the life of me, what are the desired heading/track indicators telling me on the HSI in the auto mode? The heading bug seems to point to whatever point I select on the PVI-800, but I can't tell what the track indicator is telling me. Sometimes it seems to be telling me which way to turn to get back on course, and other times, it looks like if I followed it, I would move further off the flight-plan course.

I know in the original post, he says no way to change the color, but I'm wondering if since then, anyone has found a way. As an example, the Ka-50 has white phosphorous, and the UH-1 has green. Would be nice to be able to change other A/C NVGs to white and vice versa to simulate wearing different types in different airframes.

I mentioned this because it’s impossible to have NVGs focused for flying (outside), and inside. They can only be focused for one distance at a time. Also, they only give about 20/40 visual acuity, if you know what you’re doing, so aren’t ideal for reading anything, if you were foolish enough to choose inside vs outside. Pilots look under the NVGs with their naked eye to read instruments. Again, mentioning this as an example of something unrealistic that people have asked for in the past to compare.

Not sure what to think of this. Seems presumptuous.

That’s very similar to the argument that some make about reading instruments through NVGs. In my opinion, it’s a realistic constraint. I imagine 64 pilots find the obscuration annoying, but deal/get used to it. if it becomes an option, I’d say make it server controlled. I believe it should be able to be stowed as well, much like the Ka-50 HMS.

Thanks man. I find the Ka-50 to be a bit unstable longitudinally with the gun fixed forward, but being able to flex to this is a great option when you have a sight failure.

Awesome, thanks. I knew there was a way, I just forgot how over the years.

I just played through this mission after an update, and did not apply this mod. No issues noted.

Is there a way to lock the Shkval view forward? I recently lost my hud due to ground fire on a mission, and wondered after the fact if I could have used the Shkval as a makeshift gunsight if it had been locked forward. I can't seem to find a function in the manual that does this.

It only stops while reducing the throttle, as every turbine helo with a throttle on the collective that I've touched IRL works. Seems reasonable that, of the myriad of control setup possibilities, the one option to allow it to work as in real life would be possible in the sim, as someone is bound to make a controller that simulates realistic operation. And, here we are.

The stop button is activated only when you press it. Basically, it's a physical stop, but when you press the button as you would to decrease the throttle below idle, it also sends a button signal to the computer.

1. Traceless minigun ammo 2. Full range throttle axis. 3. Draw grease mark on the window.

I’d like to add a greasepencil mark for shooting to the Huey. Where do I start?

Can we get an option for traceless minigun ammo?

Well then, you could just not listen to him if you’re so unsure.

If it’s for vehicle interdiction, then that’s a mission task, and a commander has probably blessed off on its conduct and accepted the risk. That doesn’t mean it becomes the norm for regular approaches to landing. I guess, all I’m saying is that there’s a time and place. I was speaking as though this were a normal approach and landing sequence.

True story.

A circuit like that is fine, until you lose an engine during the decel at low altitude. Fine in DCS, but in real life, that kind of hot dogging would get you kicked out of flight school, at least in the US. On the line, though, depends on the commander...
