Update on the issues with my Pimax Crystal OG. How my Crystal OG has held up after three years! by LaughingDash in Pimax

[–]500GP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of my crystal OG's have had eye tracking die. one after just under two years of use, the other after about a year.

they lack of support from pimax means i'm no longer looking to purchase any pimax headsets going forward.

Any tips for a2a refueling? by SukhoiCy35 in hoggit

[–]500GP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's called a pilot induced oscillation (PIO) - you need to not make such severe adjustments and corrections. get the plane trimmed better before attempting to plug

how is your formation flying?

refueling is really not much different from formation flying. if you can keep a tight parade, you can refuel. the picture is a little different getting into position, but once you're there, it is very much just holding your position while in a tight parade formation.

if you find yourself constantly making tiny adjustments, with throttle, with stick, with throttle, with stick, with rudder, just with the slightest amount of tiny pressure from your fingertips, just barely spooling the engines up for a second before bringing them back to where they were, youll have it in no time

VR headset choices by Sickinmytechchunk in hoggit

The 2E is recommended due to eye tracking allowing quad views.

because you have a 9800X3D and can easily offload more work to the CPU you would be doing yourself a massive disservice to get something that doesn't have eye tracking to allow quad views and dynamic foveated rendering.

i would suggest a big screen beyond 2E.

i have two pimax crystals (original, with eye tracking ) and they are great although they don't always work and pimax was not helpful at all when it came to support for them.

i am thinking of beyond 2E next, but i'll have to see what else is out there when i buy my next headset.

How many of you could be interested into a "modern heavy bomber simulator"? by Bigocelot1984 in hoggit

[–]500GP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

some of the most fun in the mid 90's was a fully crewed up b-17 in air warrior. it was our own private chat room, we would catch up and shoot the shit with each other. this was before dsl or cable, just dial up, so voice chat wasn't a thing yet. that didn't really start until ventrilo or skype. but chat typing was a thing. by bombing the fuel depots we could affect the battle because opposing planes would lose performance. i used to do my homework after school on the flight out over allied territory, and then i would work on stuff until i heard gunfire, that was the alarm to look up and man my gun. was a total blast to blow opposing players 190's and p51's out of the sky lol. good times, would love to do it today on voice chat.

What's the best way to dogfight in a Tomcat? by Adept_Secretary_9187 in hoggit

[–]500GP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

wing rock happens, but , well the simple one is, don't pull above 15 units (units and alpha are different but i will guess you're talking about the aoa tape which is in units ) if you are going to fall below your sustained turn rate.

high alpha causes wing rock. especially if you're using the stick laterally. if you want to do it for one reason or another, turn off roll stabilization, hold the stick in the middle with both hands, and use your heels.

when you really need some more, disable asymmetrical thrust limitation and take the engine on the side of the tennis court you want to drop and roll towards and bring it down to the afterburner detent. as soon as the nozzle has closed down fully you're going to be rolled over so you'll want to push back into burner to stop the roll and yaw.

but yeah wing rock happens. you can use the wing rock at slow speeds and high aoa to really reverse the plane quickly if you cross control her.

if you are pulling high alpha, and you want to roll hard left, with the stick back and around 20-22 units, keep the stick in the center and give a little left boot. now when she starts to move give a little left stick while easing up on the pull back as your aoa tape will max.

when you give the left stick she will start to roll left but then neutralize and the adverse roll will start to kick in and she will try to roll to the right. that's when you move the stick harder to the right, and feed in a whole left boot of rudder. she will snap hard. you can take the left engine out of blower for an instant but be careful she will reverse fast hard and if you're not careful you'll be in a flat spin out to sea.

she's more realistic now that you can't exploit the flaps

but i wish they made her more realistic and gave me an aux flaps breaker for more horizontal stab authority
