  1. I’d love to see DCS offer native support for haptic feedback such as Buttkickers. I find the current methods inconsistent (external apps etc).
  2. Just flew the Mirage 2000 over the Falklands. Truly excellent aircraft to fly. I can’t wait to get to know it better. Well done RAZBAM on a terrific update.
  3. Just want to say thank you for this. It took me less than an hour, after a clean install of DCS beta to get this working. My VR experience in DCS has improved significantly and I’m still tweaking it.
  4. I have the Channel map which I like but it does seem it will be engulfed by an expanded Normandy map so wonder that that will play out. Improving the Normandy map is good news.
  5. I am very, very satisfied with my VR experience in the Mosquito. It is a work of art. I don’t have a Reverb G2 so can’t advise on that but my Valve Index and RTX 3070 do it for me.
  6. This works a treat! I’ve copied them into my Viacom for DCS profile. Thank you very much Terry Dactil!
  7. I’ve partially set it up and I think it is going to be a winner but time will tell obviously. It’s been well thought out for the MSFS2020 and similar target sims but will suit warbirds rather well I think. I have a simple hand made button box to fill in any gaps there might be. For some reason I can’t explain my Virpil throttle was hyper sensitive for the axis in the Mossie but the Honeycomb is just right for it. My take offs and landings have improved significantly as I now have finer control of the throttle and RPM. Having dedicated flap and gear levers is very nice. I’ll use the Virpil for jets I think and the Honeycomb for props. It looks like the trim wheel, being a rotary encoder, will be difficult to set up. I might just keep that for MSFS for which it works beautifully out of the box. That’s not really a problem as I have the trim controls set on my joystick anyway. For the asking price it is rather magnificent, based on a day or two’s experience with it.
  8. Thanks Helles Belle for checking with Honeycomb and reporting their response. I was wondering about those images. I’m in the process of setting up my new Bravo for the Mosquito. So far so good.
  9. Thank you Terry Dactil. An excellent solution. Thanks also for the mossie profile.
  10. Of the three flight sims I use (DCS, IL-2 and MSFS) IL-2 needs far less fiddling to get very good frame rates and maxed visuals but the ground textures don’t look as good as the DCS Channel map for instance. DCS requires a lot more fiddling with settings but that brings rewards. Once the map gets busy my frame rates can drop rather quickly however. I look forward to Vulkan and what that should bring to VR in DCS. MSFS is still new so I’ll give it time but it is a bit of a pain to get looking good while maintaining reasonable frame rates. I’ve been flying the DCS Spitfire on the Channel map lately and am seriously impressed with the quality of that map and with the Spitfire.
  11. I would like to see for WWII North Africa, Mediterranean, Sicily, Italy. Korea for Korean War era aircraft. Vietnam for that conflict era aircraft please.
  12. I’ll be taking out prison walls and Gestapo headquarters whereever they can be found.
  13. This looks like a fantastic module. I’ve downloaded and copied the folder to the mods directory but on loading DCS says it is unauthorised and will be disabled. I would be happy to pay for the Goshawk if that is required but didn’t think that was necessary. Any help will be appreciated.
  14. It seems to me the only way to get one in the UK is option 3, i.e buy a pre-built PC system. My son in Australian finally got a 3080 recently after ordering one months ago.
  15. I would be up for buying a dual seat Hornet
  16. I have my PayPal account ready for the Mossie. Standing by...
  17. I have pre-ordered mine just now. I know it is developed for DCS, which is great but would love to be able to use it in IL-2 as well, even in a limited way as that doesn’t have clickable cockpits.
  18. Excellent news! I have been hoping the A6-E might come along.
  19. I’ve had a Valve Index for several months now and love it. It is so well designed and the side field of view is not to be underrated, nor is the soundscape generated by the off-ear speakers. I find I am able to spot and identify other aircraft in multiplayer and solo without any more difficulty than I had with head tracking. I have no experience with the Reverb so can’t comment on that.
  20. You brought both, good decision and problem solved. I prefer the F/A 18 mainly because the RAAF have it.
