  1. Thanks Sarge, I should have mentioned, I tested it on my laptop using TARGET not using A10C, so assigned settings shouldn't be a factor...?
  2. I guess my only other option is to take it home and order a new trim switch?
  3. So I am about to head home from the States and thought I'd pick up a WH last minute before I left. Unoftunately it arrived today and it appears the NU trim isnt working. Before I send this back, get a refund and leave with no WH, has anyone else run into this problem and solved it any other way rather than returning it? Thanks
  4. Nice one! The first shot after takeoff in the mountains was cool.
  5. Estimated delivery Apr 13, 2011 by 4:30 PM Weight 24.0 lbs/10.9 kg :shocking:
  6. I like it- very cool. Being able to do this/ take control of the aircraft would be fantastic for multiplayer. You could have guys up lasing gbu12s in no time.
  7. I just pulled the trigger on a second hand one from amazon 410 shipped. Couldn't bring myself to pay the extra 90. I'll be taking it home to New Zealand with me so warranty would be a nightmare either way.
  8. Does anyone know whether thrustmaster honors the warranty for second hand items? Thanks
  9. Thanks, was more thinking along the lines of the stores that don't pop up in google. Eg I thought SC Simulations was doing them for a while? They aren't listed on the site however, so I guess not. Are people just buying based on google shopping prices? Thanks
  10. Hey all, sorry to bring this up again, as I know there was a thread about it a while ago, but I cant find it. To those that have already done the research- what is the best price around for a TM Warthog in the US at the mo? Cheers
  11. Wow, huge change log for such a short release time, nice one ED. Interesting to see so many bugs I have never heard anyone complain about. Great work.
  12. Hhaha, appears you are right. Seems strange they would include random stuff like this.
  13. Thanks guys. I finally pulled the trigger on the ASUS TC II TOP 900Mhz model. I'll see how she runs with that and then reassess the requirement to o/c. Thanks for all the help.
  14. +1, this would be great
  15. Cool, sold on the 560, just making my mind up on which model.
  16. EtherealN- are you happy with your ASUS 560? I am thinking of going with the same model, or perhaps the EVGA.
  17. Concur, you can see and avoid birds even up to 300 kts.
  18. LMFAO nice work that man, + 1 rep!
  19. Concur, but if this is the case, the VSI should still function, which it sound like it does not. If the OP is correct I believe the VSI is incorrectly modelled
  20. I apologise if you already know this but, IAS is derived by comparing both pitot and static pressure to each other. If static pressure was not used in the equation then airpseed would decrease as the aircraft gets higher as environmental pressure decreases. By using static pressure the system measures the pressure created by the forward movement of the aircraft relative to the outside static pressure. This is why if you have a pitot port blocked the airspeed changes. The pitot pressure remains constant (due to being blocked) but the static pressure changes. The system is still comparing static and pitot so if you climb with high pressure that got stuck down at sea level, the system will compare it to the lower pressure outside the aircraft as you climb, causing the airspeed to over read, and vice versa decending. If the A-10 uses the third design then a blocked pitot static port would cause a total blockage of the pitot static system. The VSI to remain still (as it sounds it does from the OP) but the airspeed would not change as the comparison between pitot and static remains constant as it is recieving no input. The phenomenon of airspeed increasing with altitude is caused by a blocked pitot port but open static port in aircraft that have seperate static ports. Poor explanation, I know, but hopefully you understand what I am getting at.
  21. Very cool, pitot icing is modelled. However, shouldnt the VSI have I kept working as that is purely static? If the airspeed was changing it would suggest the static was not iced, just the pitot. I am not sure as I dont know where the static ports are on an A-10.
  22. 560Ti it is then, thanks guys. Will have a bit of a think about this CPU. In peoples opinion will I be bottlenecking my sys if I get a 560Ti without o/cing?
  23. I thought this was already implemented (I havent tried it however)
  24. My guess: as you will find with all aircraft with a some form of autopilot, there is a requirement for a disconnect in case the system fails. Even though it is dual channel, things can go bad. Imagine engaging PAC, letting go of the trigger, but it remains engaged, or half way through a turn the SAS faults and engages full rudder for your turn coordination. There always needs to be a quick disconnect ready at hand for safety, as things will go very bad, very quickly.
