Lefuneste. All is working great. I tried three levels of zoom in a spit on the Caucusus map. I will try Normandy and fly the 109 and P51 later to test. Cockpit sharpen is very nice as well. Great work on how to make the adjustments! So very easy now!

Hey, Lefuneste. I tried on low and normal FOV, Pimax 5k+. Spitfire. Caucasus. The trees along the horizon jump up and down. See the track.

Hey. I use it. Works well enough for my needs. Mostly just practice flying. Keep up the good work!

Trk file Lefuneste. I realize I originally only gave you the single .trk file for IL2 in the other thread because in DCS it is a single file. Anyway, here is me sitting on a runway in the Spit with trees jumping around. Let me know if you need anything else. spitfire.trk

Lefuneste. Okay. I will try to do that in the next few days when I have some time.

Aeria I wasn't aware of that phenomenon. I am so accustomed to how the stick handles in Il2, which has no odd movement in either direction. This isn't like a wobble or sensitivity at neutral. If I let go of the stick, the Ctrl + Enter sensor shows the neutral point hanging just below center. Are you saying this is normal for the stick and you fly with it like this? Another reason it makes me think it has to be a problem is that the other two non-FF sticks I tried fly perfectly. Lastly, the Mustang is known for how stable it is with the ability to trim all flight controls. But, even its nose lifts if I let go of the stick. To me, this is not acceptable and is indicative of a critical problem. Again, it is so annoying I have never engaged DCS with any real focus. I and would like to. Also, I am not hoping for a stick that snaps to the center. In fact, the Sidewinder doesn't do this. But, if I leave the stick in center after trimming, it should stay there. It doesn't

Hazzer. Yes, FF is checked. Foxmike, what you go through seems like a nightmare to me. That sort of thing is what I want to avoid because I usually have a small window to even fly. I actually spend most time in Il2. I bought the Spit in DCS, which is unflyable with the FF problem. (The Spit has a super sensitive elevator.) I emailed the devs, and they said they couldn't reproduce it. I even said I would buy all the WW2 warbirds if they fixed it. Nope. I now use my Thrustmater. It works well enough but doesn't feel the same as a working Sidewinder with FF (the extension sounds insanely awesome). Anyway, I keep coming back here hoping someone will offer steps to make it work consistently. Thanks, though!

Lefuneste. I thought I would try out the DCS Spit and your mod, while waiting on Il2. I was able to get the three zooms working. Are you tweaking this for the WW2 warbirds? I wasn't able to get the label masking to work in the Spit or Mustang, and when I zoom and look up and down, a long horizontal shadow appears. (I am using a Pimax 5k+ with Low FOV.) That's when I began to think you haven't tweaked these shaders. If not, no worries. I noticed a few others things if you are interested to hear (only for Spit and Mustang). Let me know. Great work!

I tried with the Mustang. Same problem. Still happens after disconnecting and reconnecting devices.

Andrew, increasing the dead zone really destroys the stick's benefits, IMO. And Hazzer, I can trim the Spit perfectly with my Thrustmaster. Ctrl + Enter proves the neutral point is dead center with the TM. With my Sidewinder, the neutral point is a few degrees below center, pulling the nose up. Even if I trim down fully it still pulls up. I have recalibrated the device, as well. I must be doing something wrong, but I can't find any advice other than Swap Access and don't set curves.

Hey, guys. Been almost a year since I last posted something about this. But I only fly a Spitfire, and my Sidewinder FFB2 is always off center in the neutral position. This pulls the nose up. I have selected Swap Axis. I have made sure to not adjust the curves. I have cleared all other key bindings. And ... I even put in a request with tech support. But they said they couldn't reproduce it, and that I should seek help in the forums. My FFB2 works flawlessly in Il2, which I have been mostly playing. Anyway, I tried a Thrustmaster in DLC and the stick flies perfectly with pitch and roll set dead center. I again tried my FFB2 and the dern thing pulls up, no matter if I full trim down. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks! Oh, and I realized I posted this here because I use a Pimax 5k+, but the problem persists even when playing in 2D. I realized I should have put this elsewhere. I am not sure how to move it. Correction: Sidewinder

Hey Ross. Thanks but I can trim nose down fully and it still rises. I think this is something else entirely.

Macka. Thanks for looking into it. Today it happened once. I restarted. Then all was well. I am confounded!

Hello all I am new to DCS. I bought the Spitfire, and I am an Il2 and War Thunder guy who is interested in the challenges of DCS. I have been reading the forums as I learn the ins and outs of everything. I use a Sidewinder FFB2 joystick. I read the sticky, and I understand to swap the axis, as well as to not set any curves. I am experiencing an intermittent odd nose up as if the aircraft is overly trimmed for pitch up. I can't find the pattern of why it happens and why not. I have fully cleared the settings for all controllers, twice, and built them back from the ground up. When the joystick works, I can fully trim the Spit for level flight, and all is superb. Ideas on how to troubleshoot or fix this? Thanks!
