markturner1960 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Hi several times I have had real issues ( nearly crashing) when swapping between seats due to mismatch of presumably what george is doing and my physical controls..... Anyone got any tips on how to minimise this? System specs: PC1 :Scan 3XS Ryzen 5900X, 64GB Corsair veng DDR4 3600, EVGA GTX 3090 Win 10, Quest Pro, Samsung Odyssey G9 Neo monitor. Tir5.

Bearfoot Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 I have my CPG flight control axes mapped/mirrored to my pilot's. Cyclic, collective, and pedals. When in the CPG seat, I request controls from pilot (as CPG), start moving the helo to where I want to go and only *then* switch to pilot seat. It's then a seamless transition. All this is before the SAS saturation thing, so no idea how it's going to hold up with trim etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markturner1960 Posted June 8, 2022 Author Share Posted June 8, 2022 Cool, was not aware you "request controls", that will obviously be a huge help.....( I do have my controls mirrored already) thanks!

Kharrn Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 press "C" to request controls. An other idea is to mimic roughly the correct axis movement George has, by looking at the "axis overlay" (right ctrl + enter) and then switch seat. Though i think the "request control" variant is the smoother one. K Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearfoot Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 As far as I can tell, and if you don't care about the LARP-ing "realism" of it, there is also no functional need to switch out of the CPG seat once the bird is started. At least in DCS it seems you can fly it as adequately (or adequately enough, anyway) from the CPG seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
