Output cockpit dials to 2nd screen?

[Raven_Morpheus]

Hello

 

Just wondering if it's possible to output some or all of the UH-1H cockpit dials to a 2nd monitor in the same way we can with the MFCD's of the Black Shark, A-10, Su-25 etc.

 

I only have a 21" monitor as my primary, but I have a portrait 19" alongside it, and I find it difficult to read dials in cockpits at times so using the 19" for them would be ideal.

 

It's not such a problem with the Black Shark because the HUD shows your altitude and air speed (the 2 things I really would like to know), but there is no HUD on the Huey so I have to look for the dials, not that I even know where the altimeter or air speed indicator actually are without looking properly...

 

TIA

No there is no way that I know of and the question has been asked before of Gadroc (the maker of Helios)

What you could do is place your monitors one on top of the other and put the resulting combined resolution in the Graphics setup.

This should allow you to see the flight instruments in the lower screen.

A bit like here except he is using a wide screen monitor on top.

Ah OK thanks, I think I might have asked it before also.

 

Unfortunately I can't move my monitors around because I don't have the space to do so.

 

I'm thinking of going back to a single screen for the UH-1H anyhow because I can't use the 2nd monitor for anything really.

Raven,

Get one more monitor and you can fly it with three monitors! I just got mine going over the weekend and it's a game changer! You can see so much more.

 

And I'm going to try out the Oculus Rift this coming weekend.
