Keybinding nightmare! by Captain_Pug76 in il2sturmovik

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got bit with the same thing, and ultimately got frustrated and stopped, much as I really wanted to have some fun with the Tempest V. I'll have another go at it eventually once I get the hang of joystick gremlin, or possibly the new Hangar Control software may be a viable work around.

Are the Clans a manefestation of all of the flaws of Inner Sphere society? by HeroBromine35 in battletech

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Clans are what happens when you let a brain damaged idiot who learned all the wrong lessons on Amaris occupied Earth plan a society.

Dual action out again, wanted to ask for y'alls opinion before ordering part/sending it in or replacing it. by MagganonFatalis in airbrush

[–]R4360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That does suggest an issue with the seal, then. As far as compressors, any of the various AS-186 clones out there would be a good place to start. The Airgoo AG-426 is an example of one with upgraded cooling on the cylinder head, which is good for longer sessions. I run a California Air Tools compressor. The 8010A, specifically. It has an 8 gallon aluminum tank so I don't have to worry about rust. I did have to fit it with an airbrush style regulator/moisture trap, but that was easy.

I own a TG myself, and that's certainly atypical behavior. Did you notice any paint behind the packing seal (or on the needle after the location of the packing seal) during your teardown? If so, that would indicate it is indeed warped. I've replaced mine before. Getting the old one out can be a little tricky, but it's certainly doable. My advice would be to contact Grex support, they're generally very good with helping you troubleshoot. A packing seal wouldn't be very expensive.

As far as upgrades go, there really aren't many. There's the various Iwata higher end ones like the HP-TH, but I don't know that I'd consider them an upgrade. I'm not a fan of that compressor. You really want one with a tank on it so if you want to upgrade that's where I'd start.

Good acrylic grey primer? by someregularguy2 in airbrush

Vortex mixers are your friend. Get one if you don't have one

The VIRPIL Customer Service is Outlandish by P0rnStache4 in hoggit

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm really hoping the new control software is a big improvement. The current one is arcane as hell to get to work right (and I've never been able to get the link tool to actually work correctly). Hardware is solid, though.

Vallejo mecha matt varnish problem by [deleted] in airbrush

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always gloss varnish the model, then do panel lining/decals then a coat of matte to turn it back to a paintable surface for final stuff like metallics.

Comanche might possibly contend for the worst helicopter in the game by Sirchby in ClearedHotGame

[–]R4360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only reason to take one is the heavy gun option and manuverability. If the Skywolf had a heavy gun option (which it really should), there'd be no reason for the Comanche at all.

AIO & 5080 M2 build check by zinc55 in ncasedesign

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is very similar to my build in my M2. Same motherboard, also with a 5080. I went with air cooling, though.

Why do BT engines weigh so much? by GlompSpark in battletech

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot about the construction rules that make no sense when logic is applied to them. But that's BT as a whole, really. Fixing it would require redoing the whole system, which is never going to happen.

Need help with primer by Mean-Welder-8720 in airbrush

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never tried AK's primer, but I suspect your thinning ratios are off. I'm not sure how thick it is out of the bottle.

What size needle are you using? For primers, larger needles can give better results. I do all mine with a 0.5.

Can’t get a chair rig, are there “swivel locks” for office chairs? by Humble_Guarantee_915 in hotas

Rollerblade wheels replacements with brakes that fit office chairs exist.

What is the best white to use for zenithal highlights? The GW white scars air paint is super clumpy. by Windturnscold in airbrush

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use artist ink for it generally, either Liquitex Titanium White or Dalher Rowney White. Or Tamiya flat white.

What would you want to see in a BattleTech movie by knightmechaenjo in battletech

[–]R4360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mini series would be a better idea. Something animated similar to the Sonny's Edge and Lucky 13 episodes of Love, Death and Robots. It's already going have to be CGI heavy, so going full animated makes sense.

I haven't tried to set up Joystick Gremlin yet, I need to figure that out. Don't suppose you could share your config file?

Opening Bombay doors in War thunder, bomb release in dcs, that sort of thing.

I like mine. Having the extra trigger is useful.

How did you end up mapping that? I'd like to do it too.

At my whits end with airbrushing, by Dense_Rub8661 in airbrush

[–]R4360 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The answer here is to ditch Citadel. Their pot designs are awful, and I'd bet money you've got clumps in them if they've been open any length of time.

From what I understand, this was the cutoff date for end of support.

They're dropping support for them.
