@eFirehawk You can look at this video to understand the effect of the dampers with an héli (dampers make the joystick stay in the last position you left it):

Thanks, but I take it from your answer that flying planes with a joystick without a spring is to be avoided.

I mostly fly helicopters and I'm thinking of getting the kit with the dampers if I buy a winwing joystick. However, I also fly airplanes from time to time, and I can't imagine dismantling the dampers every time I change aircraft. I'm wondering whether, in terms of feel, flying a plane with dampers and without springs is going to be awkward. At the moment I'm using a microsoft sidewinder force feedback 2 joystick. Despite the lack of buttons, I'm afraid I'll regret buying a joystick without force feedback. If you have any info, I'd like to hear from you. Thanks

Hello, This doesn't happen systematically, but the operating system crashes when I use the F10 keyboard shortcut while flying the F14 tomcat and F16 viper. It appen one time without having to use the F10 keyboard shortcut, so maybe the suspicion of the keyboard shortcut problem is irrelevant, but the problem has most often arisen during its use. Specifically, the screen goes black, a fan (gpu or cpu, I haven't checked) accelerates and I'm forced to reboot. I have tried a repair of DCS (using MT in single player), my OS and GPU drivers are up to date (GPU: ATI radeon RX 580 serie). I don't have crash log, just a dcs.log thanks dcs.log

If we're talking about improvements, perhaps you could also make the NVG keys increase or decrease intensity by holding down the key, and make the flashlight mouse-sensitive rather than head-sensitive, as in other modules. Thanks

We can see in this video the capacity of the gazelle:

To be fair, a stall turn is manageable when you turn to the right and don't try to put the chopper's horizontal axis perpendicular to the ground (something like 75° max).

I was just coming to the forum to ask if anyone had ever made a successful stall turn with the gazelle I haven't managed to make anything clean yet, and this is not a problem with ah-64, mi8 or huey (the helos are more stable). Maybe it's in relation with the Transverse flow effect, but I don't really thing so. Or maybe I just very bad...

I have the same thing when accelerating and just before get to a hover, I have to compensate by tilting the stick to the right for a brief moment to prevent the helicopter from rolling to the left.

The fix concerning the FFb trim is welcome. Concerning the slingloading option, it can be good to have the call for charge in the F6 comm menu, like others helos.

It seems that adding dead zone on the axes have an effect on this issue. It's worth with it.

I have the same problem with twcs throttle. And, same as you, this is worth horizontaly. I thought it had something to do with the poor quality of my throttle, but apparently that's not all.

For now, advancing the throttle slowly or very quickly don't break the engine.

Another thing about the flashlight slaved to the head is that when night vision is active, the flashlight and night vision are superimposed. This means that night vision must be switched off in order to use the flashlight.

I add my vote for this. Thanks

With "sa342 viviane normal/IR view toogle/Periscope stabilization toggle" mapped to my joystick, the virtual button of the cockpit go down but don't go up when pressed again. We have to use the mouse to click on the virtual button to make it go up. (bug already describe here): Also when pressing the virtual button "symbologie augmenter la luminosité" it's also press the "bouton symbologie normale/inversée" in the virtual cockpit. I haven't found any conflict in my configuration.

Reading some topics in the forum, I already change the way to increase or decrease intensity by modifying the lua file. But concerning the flashlight slaved to the head movement, I don't know which file I have to look for (and if this is possible to modifying it). Does someone can help me to find it? thanks

Thanks for alls those inprovement, but can we expect somes news about FFB issues with ACLS ?

Hello, Edit: I have edited the tittle of this topic. When adjusting NVG to increase or decrease the intensity, we have to press a key for each modification, if we maintain the key press there is no effect. I would like that maintain the key press increase or decrease the intensity. Thanks Edit 2: Concerning the flashlight, I think this is more intuitive to slave it to the mouse movement than to the head movement.

No. It's OK for me too. Thanks

Thanks, A repair do the job. It seem that my first updating was missing somes files.

Hi, Since the update I have only try the s342 (no need to explain why I think) and I have experiencing multiples crachs of DCS. I don't know if this is related to the s342 module but in case, here my logs.

Hi, Using a ffb joystick, I can't say the FM is improved for me. To reduce the sensivity of the joystick, we usualy modify axis saturation or curves. But with a ffb joystick, this option desynchronize the real position of the stick with the ffb motor of the joystick (and this this the same with others modules, we can feel it with UH-1 or MI8 when using trim button for example). What can really help ffb joystick users can be an option that make believe to the joystick that the setting of saturation is 100% when in reality this is something else. I don't know how difficult this is to implement, but because this is concerning multiple modules, I think this can be interesting. Thanks

Thank for the answer, but this option only work (at start) if I keep historic and record password in the parameter of firefox, what I avoid on the internet. Also I use this extention on others webs site which don't have daker option.

Hi, I use a firefox extention to make web site darken (dark backgroud and light text). When I use it on DCS-world forum, by default the forum appear like in the left side of the image. I have to switch to Simple CSS option in the extention to make the forum appear darken (right side of the image). This issue don't appear on the others webs sites I visit. I wonder if you can do somes changes to make the forum appear darken by default ? (my eyes will be very grateful). thanks.
