Steel Jaw Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 So how is everyone fairing with these warbirds and a stiff stick like the Warthog? I understand trimming and doso constantly (what a hassle) but still wind up sore. This opposed to flying the Hornet which is self-trimming. Discuss.

javelina1 Posted June 27, 2021 Posted June 27, 2021 (edited) this helped me quite a bit for the trimming. The Jug is a constant trim beast. But having more granular trimming has made it much more manageable (and enjoyable) for me. I feel like I can get it dialed in pretty good.

grafspee Posted September 2, 2021 Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Using rudder pedals lifts a lot from trim work load. Edited September 2, 2021 by grafspee System specs: I7 14700KF, Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite, 64GB DDR4 3600MHz, Gigabyte RTX 4090,Win 11, 48" OLED LG TV + 42" LG LED monitor
Mogster Posted September 3, 2021 Posted September 3, 2021 A short stick extension helps a lot. 10cm on my WH has aided precision and reduced the centre force so you can hold the stick off centre without getting cramp.
grafspee Posted September 3, 2021 Posted September 3, 2021 (edited) FFB stick from thrustmaster would buy 1000%, this would be only solution for ww2 planes.

Ala13_ManOWar Posted September 14, 2021 Posted September 14, 2021 No problem at all, here or anywhere. 25cm extension on my Warthog, works flawlessly .

Yeah, well, the F/A-18 has four R/P/Y computers running all sync'd up. Poor old P-47 only has the Mk.1 human arm and legs... LOL Cheers Hoss Sempre Fortis
