Stringer52 Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 DCS.jpg Well, got everything working. Helios looks good; Cougar sits nicely at upper left (will put right one in later). Saitek switch panels at left work well using DCSFlightPanels software. I have lots of buttons set up. VoiceAttack handles comms. The only thing is, the indicators are a little jerky; not as smooth as in the sim. The nice thing is, it allows me to sit a little closer to the HUD, and I can set my TrackIR profile so I don't look down, just left, right, above, etc. However, can't decide if I like coming "out of the sim" like this. I suppose I'd get used to it, but it seems a shame to waste those beautiful cockpits. What do you think? John in Indiana
Kang Posted March 26, 2020 Posted March 26, 2020 I think that looks nice. One thing I wonder, though: do you mind that the 'instrument' screen overlaps a bit with the actual view screen? I could imagine it doesn't matter much in the end and the pros much outweigh the cons, but looking at it would make me a little uneasy somehow.
Stringer52 Posted March 26, 2020 Author Posted March 26, 2020 Yeah, I don't like that, either. What I do is zoom in on the HUD, eliminating most of the panel. I'll probably go back to one monitor till I get to the point of really getting into combat, then Ill revisit it.
RustBelt Posted March 27, 2020 Posted March 27, 2020 I like helios for F-14 Rio, But otherwise I just pull out the MFD's to see them better when I'm flying using the Virtual Cockpit. And Kneeboard, that thing needs to be out of my darn way.
