Heli Shed

Very happy to help here Memphis! I've just completed the 5 part series for the Gazelle which includes 'quick fix' tutorials. Youtube channel has the quick fix tutorials too. Rendering Part 5 now but, Full playlist here:

start from 16 minutes. There is nothing wrong with the auto hover feature chaps. @faviou2 Magnetos? What magnetos - it doesn't have any mate. You mean the Mag Break? All the SA342 needs for an auto hover is Gyro on, AP on, Dampers on, less than 18kph - preferably in a manual hover, no pre defined trim - trim, activate - badda bing.

Added 'Quick Fix' videos for Startup, HOT3 & Mistral

Hi DCS Legends! This is our new showcase video put together by 'Pilgrim' who I know has spent many, many hours on this. It is his first attempt at a DCS world video and although he spent a good 5 minutes telling me afterwards what he wanted to do differently next time, I really couldn't understand what he was saying or to what he was referring to (might as well spoke with clicks n whistles of a dolphin) I absolutely love it and I know the other chaps at Wing Flex do too. I'd be very grateful if you would consider watching it and giving some words of encouragement for Pilgrim on the Wing Flex Youtube channel. Thank you very much. Wishing you well, T

Hello DCS Legends, Introducing the new 'Wing Flex' group, we're really super excited to be back more regularly with DCS World. A lot of us could be considered i suppose as the 'old guard' - some former senior and indeed current members of VFSs, ED testers, modders, developers and many others. We're a casual 'DCS World Interest' group and currently don't have any agendas except to share our content, our knowledge, get together every now 'n then for some mission running, live streams, tutorial videos, etc. We've got RL Soldiers, Airmen Veterans, Pilots, Ground-crew and many other specialists! We're all experienced in running VFSs, training academy's, writing missions and events and, know only too well how exhausting that can be so we're not broaching that area to create a formalised vfs group, per se - recruiting therefore is currently not what we're about but of course, we do invite you to come along and join the group - no training required, no exams to pass, to tracks to submit, no proof to give. As a new 'DCS World interest' group, we're looking to gather like minded people who can leave toxicity at the door and enjoy the content and opportunities 'Wing Flex' offers, when it offers it. We all have in common is the love for DCS World - some of us have many years invested in this wonderful sim and 'Wing Flex', aims at creating the space for some old mates and buddies of DCS world to once again, create some wonderful memories. We're inviting you too. We have a youtube channel, link through the showcase film below. We'd be super grateful if you would subscribe - we're going to bring regular content for you. We also have a facebook group - it is public and the link is on the YouTube page. Here is our Showcase film. This was put together by 'Pilgrim' who is my son. I'm super proud of him for this, many many hours and the first time he has dabbled with anything like this. He is absolutely grabbed with DCS world of course and so really gave this a lot of time and effort. Again I'd be very grateful if you left him a comment on the film on YT. Wishing you all well, best wishes. T

Part 4 - Mistral A2A Missile posted

Part 4 - Mistral A2A Missile

As long as it's a multiplier ie, the VR refresh rate divided equally by debug refresh rate, then it will work fine without ASW. Use oculus tray tool or better still the debug tool to ensure that the FPS is fixed - by setting 30hz in Debug or tray tool you are essentially fixing the frame rate - works fine mate. I have just added timelines for easier navigation of this 17 minute demo video.

Trust me on this.......... this will make a huge difference for you if you are struggling to find what is right for you. Like many of you, I've been around this community for many, many years and one thing we all have in common is the constant drive for max performance from our systems so that this great sim looks the best it can be. We do likewise for VR! But...................... is there a 'best set of parameters?'. Horses for courses perhaps. This is my view. If it doesn't help you, I'm very happy to work 1:1 to get it the best you can. Good luck!

This may help you. Sounds as though you have the sight picture over 3 degrees from the azimuth - you need to align the heli. Try also checking the cover on the missile fire button. This will need to be removed. My video below will square you away mate - fear not.

Part 3 - HOT3 Missile

Top Job!! Certainly more greener than i remember!

Thumbs up from me - awesome mate!

Yes, I'd agree with this completely although the same track on the same monitor and the same settings - one done before the card came out and one with the 3080ti in. Would we 'expect' to see a difference in colour and sharpness? I'm genuinely not sure - I don't think so. Thanks for your comment m8.

Hi Buddy. 3080ti is at the bottom. This video was 5120x1440 sampled to 2560x720 and then doubled up for 2560x1440 so it may be hard to see but it is on the Stat overlay. Apologies.

Part 1 - Startup:

Hi legends, I won't double post here but would like to inform of the series post I've made in the main Videos and Screenshots forum section here: Mods - hope this is ok to inform the SA342 Community here - if not, please delete. Kind regards all, T

Hi there, I'll add to this post as I complete each video. There will be 5 parts in total, not including this first video - the Introduction. The aim of this short series is to give a non nonsense approach to enjoying the hell out of this beauty - I hope it may be of some use to some of you who are new to this bird and a nice reflective series for those of you who may have put her down previously but want a quick revision. Look out for the 1 minute 'Quick-Ref' videos on each of the 5 parts once the series is complete. All videos will be on our new channel - grateful if you would subscribe to us on YouTube. Timelines have been added to videos for you. Kind regards, T Video 1 - Introduction:

Hi Legends! The purpose of this short flight was to compare the GTX 1080ti to the RTX3080ti - both from Gigabyte and both their 'Gaming' OC variant (yawn). The Resolution is pretty high at 5120x1440 and some of the most common settings ramped up pretty high in DCS World except Supersampling - that would've brought the 1080ti to a standstill - i tried it first! The short flight was actually on reflection, well suited for this video. Lots of trees, different lighting conditions, long and far distance rendering, smoke, flairs, rockets and tracer, on a mission which is one of the infamous but enormous Dynamic Campaigns (credit: 'Through the Inferno' IIRC - very nice indeed - go check it out), with scripts galore and hundreds of units active fighting 'their own war'. The results are............. well...... to be expected but still a very worthwhile examination of how the GTX 1080ti (a very capable card even in 2021), is trounced by the much more capable RTX 3080ti in DCS World 2.7, how the CPU is utilised much better, how the temperatures are lower on the 3080ti yet drawing more power, yadda yadda. A very interesting and worthy comparison. Please take from it what you will. FWIW, if it wasn't a necessity for me to upgrade to the 3080ti due to work etc, I absolutely wouldn't have done - the upgrade is certainly not worth £1400 ! However and with that said, it was a perfect time to pit these two cards against each other - Fight! Thanks to 'Pilgrim' for allowing me to capture the flight. Kind regards & best wishes, T <edit> Timestamps placed in the first comment and please watch in 1440p for full HD of video.

Thanks @algerad3 but the link in not working. I too am using spacedesk but no matter what i try i cannot get the views i need on them.
