I’m in the process of making a CH47 CDU, the issue I’m having is the proper dimensions.

Thanks for responding! I’ve got it sorted out. Just need to get it working through oculus virtual desktop now…….

Hey all, Just wondering if anyone happens to have or know where I could get the dimensions of the CDU? I’m on the process of making one with my 3D printer, just need the proper dimensions if possible. thanks much

LorenLuke, thanks for explaining that, suffice to say, I have it working for me now…… Well, I did, until I hooked up the Moza AB9 FFB base. Now, I’m completely lost. That’s gonna be another steep learning curve, lol

Hi all, back again with yet another issue I’m having. Here is my setup today, I’m waiting for my 9800X3D to arrive so I can install the new PC. But until that arrives I’m having a massive issue. Oh yeah, my setup, I7 11700K 64GB Ram, RTX308-Ti FTW3, with 3 x M.2 SSDs. Issue; when in DCs and flying the Apache the monocle is way too high in my view, the heading take can barely be read, even with the headset set to all different angles, same results. Then I try to use George AI and the AI pop ups are set to victimless, not horizontal. The second pop up is so high 1/2 isn’t even in my view. I’m assuming it’s some setting I have in either DCS or Oculus software. someone with the Quest 3 that’s not having theses issues, can you post your settings, so I can compare and hopefully resolve the issue? I have a ticket in with ED, but they’re asking for photos or video of the issue. When I try to do that. I press the oculus button and pull the trigger, just like the manual says, in my case I get the DCS folder in VR pop up and it asks me if I want to recenter the view or quit DCS. When I try to take a photo or video, I pull my headset off and the eye pieces immediately turn off, so I can’t take a screen shot, photo or video. i asked ED if they could add something so we can adjust the monocle, they said they were currently discussing the issue; however, not enough people are complaining about it, so they’re not inclined to make a change. They’d look at my issue for sure but I need to supply evidence, which I can’t!

There has to be some setting in the Q3 that can fix this issue! Now when I use George AI, the AI pop ups are vertical vice horizontal. I’ve got a ticket submitted with ED; however, I can’t even take a screen shot in the Q3. When I hit the oculus button and pull the trigger, all I get is the DCS folder pop up and it asks me to readjust the view or do you want to quit DCS. I can’t even take a video of this as the second I remove the headset the eye pieces shut off. I’m so confused now!

Got it sorted out, lol.. my fault, as usual…… So I thought that it was simple trigger issue. I didn’t realize that you need both left and right triggers to work to shoot. I now have it working. thanks everyone for your help, greatly appreciated!

Yes, that’s what I’m doing. I’ll try to setup like another poster below yours. See if that works first. There is a 3 position trigger on the Alpha. The guard is 1, then the trigger itself has 2. But, it was suggested that I use the trigger guard as the laser then use the trigger itself as just that. I think that’s what he said. I will give this a shot 100% tomorrow, thanks much!

I have a Quest 3 and this is a massive problem for me! I’ve tried literally everything to adjust the headset itself, nothing has worked. It actually hurts my neck when I adjust the headset so I can sort of see the heading tape. please DCS adjust the ability for users to move the HDU itself, just like in real life! That monocle can be adjusted for each persons head.

Hi all, starting to learn the Apache, love it so far. I’m going through the DCS training modules and when I try to fire the hellfire it just won’t fire. i get to the point in the training module where I pull the trigger to the second detent but nothing happens. Here is what I do. Find the tank in the scenario, zoom in, pull the trigger on the Virpil Alpha stick to the first detent. The laser gives me the 1500m range and the large box is illuminated. Then I pull the trigger to the second detent, but nothing happens fire and the large box turns to a small box with hash/dashed marks. I also noticed that the hellfire shows AT and then AR I believe when I pull the second detent on the trigger. Does this make sense? I have the keys bound to detent 1 the first trigger position, then second detent for the same, second. help please…..

Has anyone tried this combination yet? I haven’t seen one the H3 with Virpil throttle, base and grip. Also a Virpil Collective. I just ordered the Moza AB9, hopefully it doesn’t overwork the H3, has anyone tried this combo before? I reached out to DOF but they don’t have anything for me on this issue. All they said is they don’t have any compatibility issues for it…….. if no one else has tried this, I guess I’ll be the first to report on it. I was to.d that the base will take approx 4-6 weeks to ship to me.

I have an H3 with motion compensation and fly in VR. I have MFG crosswind pedals, Virpil T50-CM2 throttle and Apache Collective, and constellation Al-ha stick and base. All work amazingly well with the H3. I’m in the process of fitting both throttle and collective on the left side as I find it a pain in the butt to unscrew the throttle from the frame.. I have some 2020 and 2040 extrusions, I’ll make it work somehow. You must get your own seat though. I bought a used automotive (car) seat. I’ve tried other seats but the car seat for me works the best. Also only cost me $40 on Facebook marketplace.

Have you considered making a video on how to do this? I just started using the A-10Cii after a while and can’t for the life of me get SRS to work anymore. I had it working last year without issue. Now, I’m pulling whatever hair I have left out.

I’m able to transmit on the radio, but, not hearing anything in return. I press to talk ptt and no one answers. I tried to test the quest 3 microphone, but not able to get it working. I’ll chat with meta tomorrow about it.

I’m sure I posted this earlier; however, I’m not able to find it. i play in multiplayer in the Chinook. I’ve added SRS and followed the instructions, I can hear others but when I select the transmit button, it just shows as being transmitted on the intercom. I’ve set the radio to 30.00FM but same results. I’ve programmed 3 buttons and the same thing, doesn’t matter what I do. i looked at the manual, it’s a little confusing to me……. Brain damage tends to do that… any pointers would be greatly appreciated! I’m sure it’s something very small to sort out too!

Been down that rabbit hole! Intel and Microsoft requested those files, all they show is it’s Nvidia and the GPU. I had the GPU RMA’d and the exact same results. We shall see when the new hardware arrives. RAM arrives today, MB tomorrow and the CPU, we’ll, as I said before, that was scheduled to arrive later in the week until Canada Computers said sorry the item is now on back order…. if the issues continues after the new hardware, then it has to be the GPU and I’ll get a new one, maybe AMD this time….

Praying, and I don’t pray that I don’t have the blue screen of death ever again! I’m also not 1 for over clocking, I don’t want to kill the warranty.

I’ve got an EVGA RTX 3080Ti FTW3, right now….. waiting on Black Friday sales or the new release of the newest GPUs. I looked at that RAM and in Canada it’s $416, vice the $304 for the CORSAIR Vengeance DDR5 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 6000MHz CL30 AMD Expo Intel XMP iCUE Compatible Computer Memory.

Flying on the rotorheads server. Just got some info from the discord channel. Need to pack check for crates at the farp, then pack crates and then deliver them and unpack the crates. I’ll test tomorrow…

In the multiplayer menu doesn’t have anything like that. What I found today under the f10 menu is other, CTLD, then there are a ton of options in there. I’ve been able to move troops without issues. But for the life of me I can figure out how to transport things like tanks, radar, etc. says something about from a logistics transport hub. I found 1 of those on the map; however, that was about 50 miles away from where I am and the action.

Hi all, I just started flying the Chinook in multiplayer mode but am stumped when it comes to slinging loads or internal loads, etc. someone helped me with CSAR, now I’d like to delve into internal and external loads. is there a YouTube video on how this operation works? all I’ve done so far is hook up a slinger load but I have no idea where to take that load to. How does the system work? thanks much Loadie

Hi all, Just curious if anyone or any group are working on more missions or campaigns for the venerable Chinook? I’ve only found 3 that I can use in the user download area. I don’t have the Afghanistan map so the 4th isn’t gonna work for me. Thanks much.

Thanks everyone for the advice! I can now play multiplayer with a few hiccups. For some odd reason I sometimes get the blue screen of death. Windows error memory issues. So I run the diagnostic on my RAM and 0 issues. Hop back on and play for a while. Other than that, not to bad! I really wish I could turn up the graphics more on multi though. Sucks with medium settings, vice the high, or extreme settings, lol

Hi there, ‘’I just started trying to use multiplayer in DCS; However, it sucks for me! This is my system. Aorus Z490MB intel I7-11700K 64GBRam 3 x M.2 SSDs RTX3080Ti video card. Oculus Rift S internet is fibre optic getting on average 800mbps. I haven’t tried anything higher than 100 ping rate. when I try to fly, we’ll it all of a sudden gets unusable. Stupidly choppy, I lose the back half of the VR view. It’s worse than trying to wait for dial-up to connect, for those that remember dial-up. any help would be greatly appreciated. I asked on one of the many the Facebook pages. The basic answer I got was DCS sucks in VR on MP.

Great news, I was starting to get a little miffed, I’ve had the campaign for about a year now, can’t recall what I paid but was like WTH, I paid for something but not getting it. Glad your updating it to work as it should and hopefully even better! Keep up the great work. as for this mission, I’ve gone upto mission 12 I believe in the past but my computer crapped out in one instance in another software issues. Needless to say I’ve built a new computer that shouldn’t have issues anymore. I’ve made it past mission 7 without issue. Could it be an issue with saving it if I’ve gone into mission planner and changed the weapons used?
