Ich kann nur über Steam sprechen und da ist außer der Viper nichts reduziert. Zumindest nicht für mich. Daher interpretiere ich den Newsletter so. Wenn alle Module über den gesamten Zeitraum im sale sind, wär natürlich richtig klasse.

Die Aktion geht bis 18. April und alle teilnehmenden Module sind für jeweils 2 Tage kostenlos ausprobierbar und gleichzeitig reduziert. Heute und morgen die Viper, Freitag und Samstag die Hornet (auch 50%), Sonntag und Montag die Tomcat (leider nur 20%) usw. Zumindest stehts so im Newsletter auf Steam... edit: Bemerkenswert ist vllt. noch, dass die Persian Gulf map bei der Aktion das erste mal seit release um 50% reduziert ist. Vom 9.-10. April

Klasse, danke für die Antworten Wenn alle Stricke reißen werd ich mich an MT wenden, denke aber nicht dass das nötig sein wird. Wenn Du sagst, dass das Profil 40x80mm hat sind das fast alle infos die ich brauche. Ich kann das Zeug über meinen Chef beim Großhändler bestellen, ich brauch lediglich die richtigen Maße. Nur zu den MFD Haltern von MT hätte ich noch eine Frage. Und zwar, ob die mit Befestigungsmaterial, sprich Nutstein/Hammernuss, geliefert werden um sie im Profil zu verankern? Grüße

Hallo alle zusammen, Ich will schon ziemlich lang 3 TM Cougar MFDs installieren, steh aber vor dem Problem, dass meine rig keinen Rahmen o.ä. hat an dem ich sie vor mir befestigen kann. Also bleibt nur eine DIY Lösung. Orientieren will ich mich an Monstertech, nicht zuletzt wegen ihren MFD/Tablet Haltern (die auch verbaut werden sollen). Plan ist, eine Aluprofilstrebe mit Fundamentwinkeln o.ä. auf der Bodenplatte meiner rig zu montieren und dann mit den MFD/Tablet Haltern von Monstertech zu besetzen. Bevor ich alles bestelle wollte ich aber noch ein paar Dinge über das System wissen. Und zwar als erstes, welches System Monstertech mit welcher Nutbreite (6,8, oder 10mm) verwendet. Bosch-Rexroth oder Item? Außerdem will ich den Halter für das mittlere MFD nicht mit Klebepads befestigen, sondern über die beiden dafür vorgesehenen Löcher am Profil verschrauben, weswegen mich die Profilbreite (z.B. der Monstertech Tischhalterungen) und der Abstand zwischen den beiden Nuten interessiert. Alternativ wäre der Kernabstand zwischen den beiden Befestigungslöchern am MFD Halter interessant. Ebenso der Durchmesser der Bohrungen am MFD Halter, um Nutsteine mit passendem Gewinde kaufen zu können. Am rechten und linken MFD Halter ist das Gewinde (Ich vermute M6, bin mir aber nicht sicher) am optionalen Gelenk für mich interessant, ebenfalls um Nutsteine mit passendem Gewinde kaufen zu können. Ich hoffe, dass mir jemand weiterhelfen kann, auch wenn es schon ziemlich viele Fragen sind. Danke schonmal im Vorraus. Grüße

1. Because DCS has close to 10.000 reviews yet alone on Steam. So if you could do the math... 2. Most sources say the SD-10/PL-12 having a max range of roughly 45nm, the 120B about the same and the 120C, depending on source about 55-65nm. So what? Truth hurts, huh? Sorry, didn´t want to burst your bubble.

Most of the online servers are empty 24/7 and only a few are populated. My server browser shows round about 500 servers and 700-1000 players worldwide. Including one Admin bot on each server, so there are roughly about 300-500 real players online. I highly doubt that this is the majority of DCS customers. And for aircrafts from the same era on both sides... red has the JF-17 wich is very versatile and pretty much equal to the F-16/F-18 (well, as long as the 120C is still underpowered compared to it´s real life performance), so what´s the point?

This is only a part of the truth. Fact is, that the details of the MSFS 2020 world map is related to your internet connection. The slower your connection is, the less details you will have. Not everyone has a 1000 Mbit/s connection to enjoy FS 2020 in full details, while i doubt a 1000 Mbit/s connection will be enough for that. Not to talk about the CPU/GPU you will need to run this with more than 15 fps. Even the raindrops on the windscreen are A.I. controlled as well as multiple shadow layers on 32 layer cloud systems. The PC (and internet connection) that runs FS 2020 with 60+ fps on full details is not developed yet.

No problem. Yes the WarBRD is a bit more than the TM base, but worth every penny.

That is correct. If you want to have all switch positions beeing mapped functional, target is the best way to achieve this without having to mod any .lua files. For example you can map the China Hat forward, backward and middle position as 3 separate inputs.

Gibt es in der echten Hornet auch nicht und wird daher wohl auch nicht in DCS "dazu-erfunden". Man kann das aber auf der SA-Page sehen wohin der TGP ausgerichtet ist.

Not sure if this would work, but you could try following: Use one TM base free and ingame mapped and the second one with a TARGET profile, as TARGET will morph your controllers included in the profile to a separate virtual controller. This should work, also for the throttle. Besides that, i would rather purchase a VPC WarBRD base instead of a second TM base. It´s a bit more expensive, but you´ll get what you´ll pay for. I got a similar setup as you are planning to get. TM base with extension and TM F/A-18 grip on top center mounted, VPC WarBRD base with TM A-10/F-16 grip as sidestick. Absolutely happy with the WarBRD base and i would never exchange it for a second TM base. Cheers

Peanuts. Where to place the order? :D

The problem with SARS-CoV-2 is not that it´s got a high mortality (infact it hasn´t, compared to Ebola or similar), the problem is that there is very little knowledge about the virus and that it has such a long incubation time (2-3 weeks) before there are signs of an infection, wich is absolute remarkable for a potentially short term deadly disease. Ebola for example will kill you within a few days after infection and has very little chance to travel from africa to america or europe. This (and the lack of knowledge about it) is what makes SARS-CoV-2 dangerous and supports spreading over the whole world. The best advise is to clean your hands regulary and don´t panic.

Using the keyboard isn´t realy practical, as you would have to take your hand off the HOTAS. On coop missions with some real life friends i´m using voice activation (don´t know if discord provides that type of transmission) instead of permanent transmission or push-to-talk in Teamspeak 3, as we´re never more than 4 and mostly only 2 ppl and no one is talking over others. When playing public ArmA with 8-12 ppl in the squad, p2t is the way to go in TS3. As for SRS, there is the option "Radio switch works as push to talk" wich i use. For the Warthog throttle, i have the CHB switch mapped as radio 2 and CHF as radio 1. Works great for me.

My words. Also there are a lot of nice plugins to customize your client. Overwolf has been mentioned and i got one installed adding radio clutter. Can´t remember the name right now, but it´s realy great to have. The DCS ingame voice chat works suprisingly well. The only problem is that there is either no one using it, or ppl don´t realise to activate push to talk and have perm transmission activated. I tested this a few days ago and had a russian guy singing polka all the time while his wife was freaking out and screaming in the background. Pretty annoying though...But besides that, it looks (or sounds) promising. Haha, yeah JF2 was fun. DOSBox is also installed on my comp to satisfy my nostalgia and i do sometimes have a few sorties in Eurofighter 2000 (got the WIN95 version as well) and Strike Commander... Those were the days back when flight sims sold better than any other game genre. So sad that they have become a niche product...

Realy? A 1080Ti is too weak?

Still a kickstarter project, but it looks promising. They said, that they will offer a mount to attach it vertically. https://totalcontrols.eu/

This is a nice construction indeed, well planned and executed. I´m still looking for a DIY MFD/display solution for my rig as it has no frame to mount them w/o modification. I will definately take a look on the displays you choosed, as these almost perfectly fit behind the TM MFDs. Thanks a lot for that hint. Just wondering what you are going to display on the third screen in the F-16. Or is this just a preparation for future Hornet usage?

+1 for that

AFAIK In RL, the curvature of the earth starts to get visible for human eyes at roughly 25.000ft. If DCS maps would have realistic curvature, there would be no need to go up to 90.000ft....

I assume left and right MFD will be placed at the same spots seen on pics 1-3. But where is the 3rd MFD case supposed to be placed in the finished pit? And are you going to mount them (spotted possible screwholes in the bottom of the cases), or are they heavy enough not to sslide around? Looks great btw.

Won´t these two modules getting uninstalled automatically after the "free-to-fly" weekend is over?

Look, i´m not a professional on that. All my knowledge is from 10-15 years ago when we sometimes painted parts for our cars back in younger days. Since the WH grip is made from metal, i would simply treat it like a car part. If you want to have it look like almost new, i would assume that there is no way around disassembling it and do the following: 1. Remove the old paint with sand paper 2. clean the surface with thinner. Must be perfectly clean 3. airbrush it with ground coating and let this dry for at least 24h 4. airbrush it with car paint of the same RAL code and let this dry for several days (3-4). 5. repeat step 4. Otherwise i doubt it would look much better than it does now and you could save your time and effort instead and just use it as it is. If you do not own an airbrush system and an air conditioning compressor, you could also use aerosol can paint, but the quality won´t be a blast with these.

I´m not an expert, but i think something is broken with vsync. Prior to 2.5.6 i had solid 60 fps in SP as well as in MP and after the update my fps dropped to 25-35 in average. I read something about vsync and that it sometimes doesen´t perfectly work and then can cause fps drops in games, so i wanted to give that a try and turned it off yesterday. Now in rare cases i still have fps drops, but not down to 25-30 and my average fps went up to 60-80 i´d say. And it looks the same, means no typical non-vsync issues... wtf? 2 days ago i would have stated that the game has become almost unplayble for me, but now i´d say the total opposite. Without vsync, it "feels" even better than before the update...

Start SRS-ClientRadio and click on "audio preview", there you can test your mic and headphones to see if they work and how other ppl will hear you. Teamspeak also has audio test functions and i´m sure discord has as well.
