Aries101 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Hello all! I am about to get Mi 8 so i wanted to ask couple of things. first is my T flight HOTAS X nuff to fly it? And second, my handmade clip stopped to work propperly from when I installed latest version of Opentrack and is now just plain horrible, so is it possible to use pow hat and still have decent experience? Beginner here. Thank you [sIGPIC]https://discord.gg/sWnHcRy[/sIGPIC] https://discord.gg/sWnHcRy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paganus Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 You can fly it with a twist stick. Many people do. It's nice to have pedals though. I feel they improve the experience. Likewise, the hat works fine for view changing. There is both a scaled mode and a snap, so you can choose what works best for you. I think most people would say a tracker improves the experience, and full VR takes it up to another level, but neither are required to enjoy it.

Weta43 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 ^^ Yes, I flew it with a twist stick until the stick's twist started spiking. It's fine... Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dresoccer4 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 ive been flying helos with a ms sidewinder ffb 2 for years now and have to say i've gotten very good at using the twist stick to control the yaw. it become second nature after a while.

Aries101 Posted March 30, 2018 Author Share Posted March 30, 2018 THanks, then my Hotax X will suffice I think. I exclusively use rocker (Extra axis) on front of throttle lever as substitue for pedals. I will also try then to get older opentrack version which was working fine with my clip.
