Refueling - precision flying

[firewings]

hi ;

 

any one have a settings sensitivity for Saitek X-52 ; i can't refuel it's very sensitive

[Frostiken]

PeterP, I know you're proud of your creation there, but not everyone has the engineering know-how or even the resources to do what you've done, and since this is like the fifth thread in a week I've seen it in, unless you plan on selling those things, please stop suggesting to everyone to use a center-stick chair with throttle mount and double-FFB TM Warthog.

 

 

 

 

It's really annoying.

[PeterP]

I really don't care if you find this annoying ...- every time (really? five threads !?) I was just answering the topic .

And why should I also not share my experience with others ?

 

Just send me please a PM the next time I annoy you - instead of de-cluttering a thread. Or simply put me on your "ignore list" and no more of my postings show up .

 

What would be your alternative answer ?!

something like this?: "Using deadzones and curves if fine - and getting a tendonitis is absolute normal ! - we just have to life with it!":P

No- ? So please don't act like I'm littering your playground.

 

 

@firewings

Try a curve setting of 30 as a start - and think to trim properly according the speed of the tanker before making contact.

And also keep in mind you will have to re-trim as you getting heavier while refuelling.

 

keep in mind this setting is only a example (and I admit that it is really extreme) -and you have to find your own "sweet spot" This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 1024x912.

Because 'helping' people by telling them to use a "product" that is, literally, the only one in the world, is in fact completely useless. I wouldn't even try to pretend telling someone to buy a $500 TM Warthog is helpful either, because that alone is an immense expense for a minor luxury for most people.

Really Frosty? You're busting the chops of one of the most helpful guys on this forum. Sheesh...

[Wolf Rider]

take into account, to trim with the refuelling flap open :joystick:

Frostiken- you have won ! and you also opened my eyes again!

 

... I kinda feel silly and small now... How could I overlook this!..

 

When I'm back home I will search for my old X45 and use only a old one CTR-Monitor. _ and I will happily use the CTRL-Indicator in DCS to see how the A-10 is trimmed. -

Just to make sure I will censoring myself and that I don't give such silly advises any more. (and I have to admit : most of them are one step away from evil witchery)

 

So would you maybe like to help me to purify..?

And send me a list which of my postings are not suitable for everyone - preferable with a note what to delete/edit

(because I think I don't know any more what's right/wrong - and I sure need some help)

- so the people that can't afford/don't have the skills to build such luxury toys don't feel so bad any-more.

 

BTW: I have a good Idea!:D - maybe there should be a password protected "Only for rich-people Input/output DCS forum" - and you get access only if you are earning more then 120.000 a year.

 

Thanks in advance!

 

...

Otherwise:

 

 

Sorry for causing confusion - I didn't intend this at all.
