Amraam Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 Great forum! The FAQ is saving my ass right now! Every time I have a new question, it's been covered in there. It took me ages to understand the KA50 Trim principle - once my mate had explained it and I had read that FAQ, it suddenly became clear! :) I can see this sim is going to take a long time to learn, but I feel like I am making progress now that I can control the heli rather than letting it control me. I can ramp start it off memory more or less now (well, I can get the blades up to full speed and fiddle with the ABRIS) - even just flicking switches and seeing what they do is progress :) BTW, just out of curiousity. I am a Falcon flyer, and never enjoyed LOMAC. I don't know how many of you are previos LOMAC flyers so I'm curious how many of you are clicking the pit, and how many are remembering keystrokes? Thanks all!

Zorrin Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 I'm a LOMAC/FCer at heart. Briefly dabbled with Falcon but couldn't get on with because of the graphics. I'm a real whore when it comes to eye candy... And I'm clicking. A couple of keystrokes have been commited to memory so far... Turn to Target and reset targeting systems. I haven't even bothered mapping anything to my stick yet either. Although I dare say when the Fast Movers from DCS come out I won't have that luxury and will have to map to stick due to the reduced thinking time you get...

Amraam Posted November 20, 2008 Author Posted November 20, 2008 I've got a Cougar so it would be a waste to not use all the buttons :D I downloaded Legolasindar's cougar profile, and I've edited a bit to suit my needs (Microstick axis etc).

Zorrin Posted November 20, 2008 Posted November 20, 2008 I've got a Cougar but no pedals and am currently using my crappy non-FFB Sidewinder... Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
