Ells228 Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 Morning guys, We'd like to say a big thank you to "Fudge" who is at the FSC Weston flight simulation convention this weekend and will have the latest Hawk module loaded up if anyone fancies popping down there to have a go. Details of the convention can be found here: http://fscweston.com/ Many thanks again to Fudge. Chris

jib Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) Yes, I thought this was next weekend and I couldn't make it. It is only 30 mins from my house. Im definitely going to go now! Edit: the only trouble is the traffic could be bad getting into Weston on a day like to day with 1000's of people headed to Weston beach Edited May 17, 2014 by jib Mods I use: KA-50 JTAC - Better Fire and Smoke - Unchain Rudder from trim KA50 - Sim FFB for G940 - Beczl Rocket Pods Updated!

jib Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 I made it to the Flight sim convention! I have just played war thunder on the oculas rift DK1 , God I feel sick! You only feel sick when you try to move your head sideways or up to see over the dashboard and it doesn't follow your movements.

jib Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 (edited) I want to says thanks to Fudge for setting up his 2 rigs with the Hawk and to VEAO Simulations for making it! Some people managed to fly some good 2 plane formations. I test fly the Hawk and I like what I saw, the external model is looking fantastic and the Cockpit is definatly DCS standard. Me had Fudge had a quick dogfight in the Huey right at the end of the day. It is so cool to be flying DCS and then look around and see all these real Aircraft around you. Hind Cockpit The Mi-8 is huge! this panaromic photo doesnt do it justice.

HansRoaming Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 Thanks to Fudge for letting me fly on the Hawk and then we did some formation flying messing about. All I can say is what a great jet for DCS!!! BTW Hind, it needs to be in DCS, sure you can fly the Nemeth Designs Hind in FSX or Take on Helicopters Hinds but really, needs to be in DCS, one of the most iconic helicopters of all time let alone just Soviet helos. DCS will do it justice.
jib Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 Yeah we definatly need the Hind it is a beast! I guess they are waiting to get multiplayer cockpit sharing implemented before they think about doing the Hind.

joey45 Posted May 17, 2014 Posted May 17, 2014 Awesome. The only way to make sense out of change is to plunge into it, move with it, and join the dance. "Me, the 13th Duke of Wybourne, here on the ED forums at 3 'o' clock in the morning, with my reputation. Are they mad.." https://ko-fi.com/joey45

Fudge Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Thanks for giving me a chance to show off your great Hawk module. Network permitting we should have two machines running the Hawk side by side. So far all but one person has been blown away by the Hawk (One guy insisted Helos are more interesting). One comment I've heard a few times is that the screen shots don't do the Hawk justice, so if you miss Weston it's certainly worth a trip to Duxford next week :)
HansRoaming Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 DCS so needed a small fast mover just for the fun of it, but any it also needs a HIND, as one can see the HIND is badass and also begins with H which means that both the HAWK and HIND are needed in DCS ASAP to make it more HOLY SH*T which also begins with H, so it is written. Ok that was a load of rubbish but yeah release the Hawk ASAP and someone make a Hind :)

Chris89 Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 Some lovely photo's from the helicopter Museum. As others have said i agree about the Hind, that would be great to have. Although so would a Lynx (Of course, made not to far from Weston Super Mare, being in Yeovil)
jib Posted May 19, 2014 Posted May 19, 2014 May be next year I will ask to take my setup along. I just need a new computer that meets the DCS minimum requirements for RAM which causes it to crash every 45 mins. 1 Mods I use: KA-50 JTAC - Better Fire and Smoke - Unchain Rudder from trim KA50 - Sim FFB for G940 - Beczl Rocket Pods Updated!
