evilivan Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Hi Not sure if this is a bug or intentional (or even if I'm doing something wrong), but it is only possible to map the Intercom radio volume controls to keyboard keys, and not to other controllers... Any chance this can be changed? Thanks evilivan [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowTiger Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 If there is a Keyboard Command for the function, then you should be able to map it to your controller (hotas) but you may well have to do this using your controller's/hotas's profile software. Aircraft tuning dials etc that you want to affect using your controller may require that you set up Bands or something like that in your controller's software. You can't just map your controller to every function from directly within or solely within DCS's Profiler. But keep in mind that "some" hotas profile software may interfere with DCS's profiles.

evilivan Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Thanks SnowTiger My controller does not come with its own software, so my only option is through the DCS control mapping. All other aircraft allow me to map controls to my (several) controllers, apart from the Gazelle - therefore seems like a bug (or or missing functionality) to me... evilivan [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowTiger Posted November 8, 2017 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Interesting. What is your controller ? What buttons/dials/rotary/slider etc (on your controller) are you trying to set up ? The answer to those questions may well get you the help you need by someone who also uses the same equipment. Best of Luck SnowTiger:joystick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigen Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Having trouble with Auto hover. Sometimes when you engage it it will just level and the just start moving forward faster and faster. Happens in 2.1 and 1.5 latest versions I cant really replicate it but it seems to happen when i take off, put it into auto hover (works fine then) and engage the tv monitor, turn on power turn the key one right and eventually put master arm on and fly to the enemy. 1080 ti, i7700k 5ghz, 16gb 3600 cl14 ddr4 oc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowTiger Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Hi trigen. Can you confirm that you are Trimmed optimally for Hover ? I'm just curious if being trimmed for forward flight might "knock it" out of Hover Mode (so-to-speak). SnowTiger:joystick: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowTiger Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 I think that confirms my point. When hovering from a take-off, "I" trim the cyclic to aft of center (others I know will add a bit of right trim to that) making the hover more stable. Then engage Auto Hover. If not trimmed aft of center (or the cyclic is actually centered) then the Gazelle naturally wants to nose down and move you forward. That's why I'm wondering IF this makes it impossible to hold in auto-hover ? To be honest, I have NO IDEA if that is how it works or if it is supposed to be how it works ?? On the other hand, if what you are experiencing is something that is new since a recent DCS Update(s) then that's another story. In which case, sorry I'm unable to help.

trigen Posted November 15, 2017 Share Posted November 15, 2017 Went flying again. I took off, went into a hover. Then i turned everything on and set the switch to ass on the copilot panel, i did not switch the key and master arm. I flew for about 10 minutes turned on the key and master arm, then i i engaged the auto hover and it worked fine behind a hill. Then i turned it off flew for about 4 minutes, tried to engage it and it just flies forward when it says its engaged. Does it somehow overheat? or am i making some mistake? IF not its essentially unflyable. 1080 ti, i7700k 5ghz, 16gb 3600 cl14 ddr4 oc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I'm wondering IF this makes it impossible to hold in auto-hover ? To be honest, I have NO IDEA if that is how it works or if it is supposed to be how it works ?? This is due to dissymetry of lift and gyroscopic precession, in which the blades going forward generate more lift than the blades going aft. In the Huey you move the stick slightly aft and to the left to hover, but since the Gazelle rotor rotates clockwise (opposite the Huey) aft right is the way to counter this phenomenon. So you're absolutely right, and this has apparently been added or amplified in the Gazelle FM. -Home Fries My DCS Files and Skins My DCS TARGET Profile for Cougar or Warthog and MFDs F-14B LANTIRN Guide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Not sure how the Gazelle is modelled but, DOL is not a factor in a hover without wind. Cyclic positioning while hovering is typically countering translational tendencies induced by tail rotor.

trigen Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Will mention this one last time. Went out, flew for 2 minutes. Put Autohover on and enabled weapon systems. Engaged auto hover at around 50m and it just kept drifting forward. Then i tried going lower and auto hover worked as it should, looked around with the camera for a bit and it started to drift to the left. After this i could not get it to slave to the camera. for my part i cant trust this to work when i need it. Hope you can find out what this error is quickly. 1080 ti, i7700k 5ghz, 16gb 3600 cl14 ddr4 oc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gizzy Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 What is the mission? Create a hot start from RAMP at any airfield or FARP and all should be good...

Jacks Posted February 18, 2018 Share Posted February 18, 2018 In multiplayer (VR) the frames half as soon as the battery is turned on and return back to 45 once turned off. With inly 22 FPS it can only be flown for a few minutes due to nausea This happens in no other aircraft and makes the gazelle unplayable in multiplayer. I can maintain a solid 45 FPS (ASW) with every aircraft in DCS except the gazelle.
