F-18 grip, WARTHOG compatible

[hegykc]

That CDU looks very nice. Only the display is upside down, but I guess you noticed.

 

That's just to show my engineering skillz :) I also managed to loose a single button cap and placed all the dual rocker buttons upside down.

I'll gladly apologize with my orders of your products on day one. I'll also positively review them if they're worthy! Until then...

"Food for thought": All Cougar mods (EvenStrain, NN_DAM, UberNXT) use 4 springs, in the two first opposite in "X" and in the third in opposite in "V", 2 per axis, like in this "low tech" UberNXT based gimbal:

As it's a more "costly" system, 4 x 2 springs... was not used by joystick industry, but used in "joystick" for military simulators (High Rev Sim, now Bugeye):

How good this system really is? :huh:

 

 

In this DIY looks - ans seems work good: :thumbup:

 

Gives a impression that center is "soft".

How is the F-18 Hornet grip coming along is this still a topic for discussion. I would like to know cause I wanna buy it if and when it makes it to the market...Thanks in advance for any info

 

I second this question.

I think its ok to ask in a " F-18 grip" thread ^^

[Nash]

So what happened to the Track Clip product?

 

Yeah Mate ...

Been waiting for that for too long ... :)

Hope to see it in October '16 atleast ... :P

Do you have pictures of the F/A-18 HOTAS?? I'm sooooo expecting and wanting that one...

[hansangb]

But we there are no plans to release F18 module from ED (partners) anytime soon. So are people just wanting it for skin/mod use?

ED has very consistently, and rather recently stated that they still plan on releasing the F-18 in 2016. So seeing as the year is slowly coming to a close, that puts it's prospective release soon.

 

Sure, you might not believe that they'll come through on that, but there are indeed plans to release it soon. And I'm sure a lot of people want the hotas prior to the module being released for day one enjoyment.

No I get it. It'll get here when it will get here. Edge was delayed, Normandy is delayed, and they still have plans to update 2.0 etc. So they have their hands full. I guess I would wait until beta comes out. But I get it.

 

I was just curious.

[sniperpr1]

Well, I still need an F/A-18 HOTAS for the VRS Superbug, so, so I do want it... ;)

DCS is not the only flight sim, Sir!

:shocking: burn him!

That is correct!!!

LOL. I got you. I have Prepar3D as well, and MS Flight sim. But I never seem to have time to fire those up

 

:joystick::pilotfly:

[Myst]

I thought BMS was the only sim?

Man, this looks DOPE!

Well, that is one explanation for the upside down display. :megalol:

[98abaile]

Looking good, really good. The CDU (and also the UFC) is a must have for me.

AHAHAH

[twistking]

i searched the thread, but couldn't find out, if the tracker is going to be a full tracking solution, or just a IR tracking clip for use with a webcam.

 

could someone enlighten me? :)

[mr_mojo97]

Just a replacement for the flimsy NP tracking clip as far as I know.

Nope, the whole thing: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=156362

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that tv camera mount! Actually I'll probably still buy one seen as they're so cheap just to see how crap dcs plays compared to the CV1. But for those who can't afford VR one, this'll be a far better purchase than TrackIR. At least price wise, and hopefully perfomance wise too.

Maybe there are peoples that don't want any VR set...

[mr_mojo97]

Of course there is that too. Especially if they have a full sim pit and multiple screens, I can see that - there's nothing like the actual touchy freely of switches. I know from my own experience with an almost full kinda replica A-10C pit which was my pride and joy for years. And Hegy will be doing full pits as well to satisfy those people which is excellent news too. There'll soon be something for everyone's needs.

Anyway, I'm not hijacking this thread with my own justification of my instant conversion to vr though so I'll leave it there.
