LOL.. Ground crew is prob wondering why this pilot keeps coming back for rearms over and over..

I haven't ventured into MP yet but I am surprised there is no FF option like BF2 and other online games have. Would take care of the FF short of ramming.

Seems someone in front of you both above and below has enough of a laser signal to say hello with explosives. I had a tank shell flyby once and it took my wind sensor with it. Talk about a close call.

I'm really close to uninstalling and looking for another way to get my flight combat fix.. My game started crashing every single time I finished a mission with the same two errors filling up my temp folder. I've had to redo so many missions cause my progress was lost unless I kept playing new missions till I was able to quit without a crash.. I decided to reinstall the game and start over without success. What's needed to monitor the crashes so I can start collecting data and posting it.

True.. AI can do amazing feats of aeronautics! AI script vs computer power. You can see the dif when flying with wing man.. Go to outside view and look at your lower rotor and see the load flex on the right then look at your wing man. No load showing.. Damn fun mission. FPS seemed fine on Vista 64, 4800 1G

Issue synopsis: At the end of a SP mission DCS BS will freeze. I need to CTRL-ALT-DEL to access the close program screen and then DCS loads the after mission screen then I can go on. Side note. I will randomly be sent back a mission if I do not fly the next mission. If I close BS after a successful mission and with a crash and with the next mission able to fly I will not have been given credit. It shows up in my pilot stats but my campaign is not tracking true.

Ok so I will bring this back from the dead.. Why remove them? I understand they can get in the way but so far I have found the upper detent is in the perfect position to avoid eng over-speed warnings. I do go into the upper range when needed but I have found if I stay there to long I have a prob with keeping my helicopter in the air for very long :-) Now the lower one I can see does get in the way so I can see removing that one... So maybe my time in sim is still low working with power settings.. Are there settings I can change to allow more collective power which do not result in over speed warnings allowing me to go into the upper range of the x52 throttle on a regular basis thus making the upper detent an anyoing feature?

Works perfect!! Both the track clip and clip pro work very well. The clip pro does a better job on the zoom and side to side. I was moving out of range with the hat clip but not with the pro..

It's set to precision slide in SST and zoom within BS but I can see from windows, game controllers, properties that the slider is shaking there and in the dead zone section it shakes in random places along the notch marks. I can stop the shake most of the time but it takes a few secs to find the right spot and in game I can just let it shake a bit while I am at the zoom or take the time and lose track of something trying to kill me dead... I had banded the zones and did the old zoom in out and stop in the center but it's just not becoming 2nd nature to me when I fly. I fig maybe someone fig out how to fix this sucker with a band aid, 2 paper clips and a rubber band by now..LOL I just noticed that my rotary nobs do the same thing but not as bad. Humm

X52 Pro precision slide First I thought it was DCS Black shark but now I see that the precision slide on my 52pro shakes in multiple positions across the slider band. Is there a sensitivity fix or is this normal for the controller? I would like to use it as a zoom but the screen shakes to much at different times. I can make it not shake when in certain positions but it can sometimes take a few changes with the slider to get there and that really takes the fun out of the game.

So check this out... AXIS Commands was not in the drop down menu under real or any other setting. It went ALL then General on down the list.. I uninst/reinst the whole game and now it goes All axis cheat and so on. I can now adjust what is needed.. Thought I was going nuts.. It's much ezr to setup controls when the option is there..LOL Thanks Panz. Axis commands was the hint I needed to make it all fall into place.

SO far I cannot get the throttle on my x52 pro to work.. All buttons work but I cannot map the throttle in game or so far in the SST. Works with FSX and in the calibration screen but nothing in BS. Running the newest SST software and drivers on a Vista 64 machine. Seems collective control is being picked up on the thumb slider. I cant seem to find a way to get BS to set collective control to the Z axis throttle and not this tiny slider.. HELP After some reading I guess I want my Hotas set to collective up and down and not the thumb slider.
