X-31_VECTOR Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 This weekend I swapped out the "two-dot" soft-center cams that come packaged with the WarBrD base for a set of CosmoSim cams. These are the centerless cams with a more linear force progression (see chart here). WOW. Instant improvement in my hovering (I fly mainly UH-1 on the rotary wing side). It's a poor craftsman who blames his tools, but the difference in my ability to hold solidly over one spot on the ground -- within a foot or two -- is just night and day. (My landings still suck but no hardware in the world is gonna change that). Before trying this, I would have said that the center "bump" of the softer standard cams really had no effect on my hovering. But with the cosmosims, I've noticed that all the micro-movements your hand makes while hovering are just smaller and smoother, hence you can correct drift more instantaneously without over-correcting. I also find the feel better for fixed wing, especially in WWII aircraft. If you're into helos, I highly recommend giving these a try. Plus they are one of the few things Virpil actually has in stock right now...
HC_Official Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 I use the cosmosim no centre CAM's on my CM2 base along with an extansion and it makes heli stuff lovely No more pre-orders Click here for tutorials for using Virpil Hardware and Software Click here for Virpil Flight equipment dimensions and pictures. .
