  1. Does 5k include the 3 projectors? My eyes are watering!!
  2. Nice, can I ask (I need a touch screen) that are they bullet proof? With say helios you push the button and all works as expected?
  3. Sounds like i would be better upgrading the GPU before the rest of the system, however, if I am going to wait and see what AMD do, I may as well wait for the GPU as inevitably it will come down in price?
  4. Only 3 touch screens?
  5. There is always something to wait for, damn you for mentioning Ryzen3000 but thank you as I hadnt heard of it! I can wait, its been a couple of Gen since I tried AMD and that looks pretty good. Banished isnt taking up too much processing capacity and the F/A-18C doesnt have a dynamic campaign yet! :thumbup:
  6. I am still rocking the old Sandy i7 2600k with a Radeon R9 200 and with my settings I can fly happily >30fps (I am happy, I know no difference)! The Sandy is stable at 4.2ghz, the machine has been solid for a number of years. I am now ready for the upgrade, it runs everything but its time. Its a stupid question but I dont understand.... the Intel Core i7 8700K 3.70 GHz Unlocked CPU Processor - 6 Cores - 12 Threads - Frequency: 3.70 GHz - Turbo Boost: 4.70 GHz - L2 Cache 1.5 MB (256 KB per Core) - L3 Cache 12 MB....... I could push the 2600k to 4.7, its base clock is 3.6 (I think) so similar to the 8700k in both base and "turbo"...so why do we upgrade, is there more to a CPU than the GHz? I know with my MOBO there are limits to PCIe, USB and Memory speed but could someone explain what the difference is between 4.2GHz Sandy (i7 2600k) and say 4.2GHz i7 8700k?? Thanks!
  7. Thanks, I will keep looking for something more like an ipad or android :-)
  8. I think this must be a simple 'user' issue, I cannot get Mk82 (82XT) to drop without going below the pull up point. CCIP NOSE OFF RET I cannot get an impact point at all!!
  9. I wonder if TM would be open to making replacement Hotas Throttle 'Panels' for the Warthog to ship with the Stick Top? I took mine off the other day to replace them with a DIY printed version but I wondered if they could try and design one for the critical buttons that uses the LEDs to back light it? Thoughts?
  10. I also saw these: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/10-1-Inch-IPS-Touch-Screen-Ultra-Thin-FHD-1280-800-Video-PC-Monitor-Display-AU/152900703159?hash=item23999793b7:g:tfwAAOSw8W5afVIC:rk:8:pf:0 Do you think they would work without the stylus? I will send them a question in anycase but I thought I would ask here.
  11. Hi, I am looking for a touchscreen to use as my F/A-18 UFC as I have failed miserably at making one!! Ebay is selling things called touch button screen, which I would imagine are not touch screens at all?! Has anyone bought, or dealt with push button screens? https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12-Inch-Touch-Button-IPS-PC-Ultra-Thin-1920x1080-Monitor-Speaker-Remote-Control/152900757341?_trkparms=aid%3D555018%26algo%3DPL.SIM%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20140106155344%26meid%3D872428918ea244a5902b21a0b7c1d6bd%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D3%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D123010437032%26itm%3D152900757341&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 Ideally I didnt want to spend more than $150AUD on a 12 inch touch screen, there is a point of sale screen but as its industrial its too bulky for the pit. Any other ideas on budget touch screens?? Thanks
  12. Sorted thanks! I know have them in a different folder and backed up in another!
  13. Its just happened again, all my different control profiles have been screwed up! Can I ask, are people using target or in game assignments for their Thrustmaster HOTAS? I have never used TARGET am I missing out?
  14. Yes, with that kind of approach you wouldn’t have a supported product at all, there wouldn’t be an ED and you would still be moaning for another suite upgrade in a year or so. No pleasing some people.
  15. We don’t want ED to spend time and resources on updating legacy products that are already best in class. We bought a product that delivers what it said to a much higher standard than many AAA titles ever do, if they spend any time updating the suite it’s taking time away from new aircraft and simulator functionality such as new maps, improved AI, Dynamic Campaign, underwater environment, performance tweaks.......
  16. I might add that try and stay away from car seats, they are very very heavy! I have one but to mount it you need some seriously sturdy wood and all in, it’s nit very portable and takes up a lot of space.
  17. What type of laser is it? I see some Chinese 40w ones on eBay for $500aud?
  18. Merry Christmas to all in the community!
  19. Stunning, hope you enjoy flying it now!
  20. Nice, how do you adapt the raspberry pi screen to run off DCS?
  21. This just popped up on a forum I use: https://www.talosavionics.com/product/flysense-hud/ I thought initially it was for flight sims but seems it’s for real flight. Do you think it’s any use for rich simmers or not even worth the sum of the parts needed to make your own. Obviously VR makes it even more pointless! $2.5k by the way!!!!
  22. Mind blowing!!
  23. Mate that’s perfect! Ps I preferred that Hotas to my warthog, don’t mind the warthog at all but I loved my Saitek!! The Throttle slew is better than the hog any day!
