  1. Thanks. Yes and no, The curve helps a lot but the pedals are worn. They are not spiking and I been away from the dancefloor for years . It was a "Phil Style" video on the spitfire and curves, that got looking deeper into that
  2. Hi all. For the start, like many others, had a hard time controlling the bird. What helped me was, acquire knowledge and keep trying. First for me was my actual controls, check for center play and make deadzones (my Warthog is from day one and rudder pedals are the saitek/now logitech.) My rudders pedals were bad, so 6 million screws later, cleaned and lubed. They are not super smooth but better after cleaning. Biggest thing was to put 25 curve on them. Tral and error, it is a grind but those hours pays of in spades. Will there come a day for me when I don't fly with the control window up ? I have 12 hours and so far no. I could have a hotas command for on and off, if I get a Casmo moment ;), but for know it stays on. Flying wise, slowing down demanded a lot more input and attention to detail, So practice and anticipate like you have never done before. Systems, still working on my cp/g setup, watching a lot of videos. Frustration: yes there are bugs, but 80% is just bad handeling. Flying a helicopter is hard. Night, I'm not even close to doing nights but it will come if I put in the effort. Fun and tough so far for me. Thanks for the opportunity DCS
  3. I spent 10 minutes in mp, reporting a strange sound in my viper, I was in dogfight mode....sigh
  4. I'm on my second tir 5. Flawless for me. First one just died of age.
  5. Voice control on actual intercom, like you would with a human co operator
  6. Same here today. Danish troops do not have enough ammo for training. What about the last second, you feeling generous ??
  7. I use the hat to control George menu and when George menu is not shown then the hat functions for something else ? Is that possible. ?
  8. 1. Warthog hotas. working a lot on center killing my vrist. Was strigling with the trim . To be hornets, was trying too much too soon. 2. My rudder pedals (saitek) are not smooth no more. 3. Do I have the skill ? Having crappy controls doesn't help . long story short, there is a lot of self before the flame of the creator if you ask me

  10. OK OK OK .... Me thinks we need to learn this bird, it is not like the others. The trim were you press and let go and it stays at that position, there might be a small thing to correct there. But if this bird does not have a "reset to zero" magic button ....deal with it. Real world: if dcs sales plummet then hmm tough. Do I have to trim more than other times .. yes ..so be it. You flying with a cp/g that can not take controls while you work your magic skills .... Get better, so sorry but like me you have just enterred the most realistic way of a combat helicopter (Western). If after 6 moths...then you are not good enough or you are You wanted real ... you got it AGAIN ..Cope or Choke .
  11. I thought I was seeing weird stuff. Now educated
  12. The Bronco kicked back....I'm getting right back on. Humble but not defeated. We will become one..... Do I have the skill to tame the Bronco ?..I will try ..
