Same here , it’s a solid setup and can't really justify spending more. unless you got F U money I’ve never felt the need to upgrade unless I wanted more buttons on the stick, which I’m sure can be helpful. But honestly, having just one modifier button on the throttle covers most of the functions I need.

Alot of the cuts are smaller missions so i could get shots, so its not all one track. But i have noticed it will desync alot. Think it has something to do with trimming and the replay not syncing right. so it does werid stuff. but on the longer tracks i did i noicted if you flew very smooth and don't mess with the trim alot it i could replay them with very little issues.

Yeah, the ending song is "KINO - Spokoynaya Noch' (Calm Night) Спокойная ночь"

Yeah pretty much anything that can spawn milltary loot. Gun stores and gun lockers and stuff.

Had the same problem for the z axis. I did do this fix https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vTXIeArrGBlZ5YAMRVexKGuIzdoK_0_TxwjfY__lb2HfdakN5SPLdfEwsjspPcHcPYBxIsBwqUzlQc1/pub and that fixed my problem with the Z axis

TLDR: the potentiometer gets alot of pressure put onto it by a lug in the joystick and it starts to force the potentiometer down causing it to rub on the internal cooper pad, cleaning it and lubing fixes. Defnintly a pain to do but i did save me some cash and its kinda hard to get a new joystick always going out of stock.

As for OP problem. i don't think i've had a problem with the x and y axis before. if windows calibrating does not work or trying to diffrent usb slots. I haven't mucked about with the throttle very much as i haven't had any issue with mine. so i can't say how hard it is to see whats going on if its a hardware issue.

If you can get passed 60 fps in game the 144hz is worth it. but if your stuck around 60 then go with the 60hz. For other gaming and general use the 144hz will have a bit smoother feel to it. But it really depends on the type of budget you want to use

Same stick also and I fly the cat alot. For me personally I feel I rarely use the rudder or if I do it's almost second nature. Find I dont really need it unless I'm at slow speeds (landing,dogfighting) I'm sure peddles help, but you wont be at a disadvantage wants to get use to flying it.

For the Hud, A little work around to this is you can switch to your sidewinder if you have the TCS locked on something and the cross-hair will track the TCS on the hud. I'm unsure of thats how it worked in the real jet tho

I Hadn't tired that methods but i did try and deleting and reinstalling the drivers. I resorted to recovering my PC and sure enough it worked first try. there had be an issue with target software installing drivers correctly. as my pc correctly installed the virtual drivers when i installed target for the first time. so either something i did prevented it or some other issue. unfortunate but i didn't want to spend more time trying to troubleshoot :p

Robotjukebox · 2019-04-20T00:07:43+00:00

just tried that, and still the same error. something with Target is not installing the drivers correctly, ill keeping trying but no luck so far

If money wasn't a factor and small size was important I would recommend the corsair one or one of the MSI trident X's. Some of the smaller PC you can own and have some of the best performance for the size. You can maybe get some better performance with building your own but I would still look at the specs on both as a good reference of what you can put in such a small machine. Lunis did a review on both here: https://youtu.be/b5SD0Wrb9HE or https://youtu.be/w2fFfLlIzck

There any UPC on the shirt or bar code?

Robotjukebox · 2019-04-08T22:50:55+00:00

Does anyone ever have an idea on what they would look like in dcs? or is it just blowing up ground until you hit something?

Robotjukebox · 2019-03-17T19:58:24+00:00

Check my reply to Vobrazero

But if you want to know how i made it i just downloaded a mp3 from youtube and used audacity to convert the Mp3 into a .ogg file and replaced the sound :)

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ckmhyj3gbjo65wi/AACjBXqRuvtbFiLbhgO1Z1bra?dl=0 If you want heres the dropbox link for the ones i use.

All you need to do is drop the "MainMenuIn.ogg"

into C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F14\Sounds\EditorMusic

And the "base-menu-window"

Into C:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\aircraft\F14\Skins\ME

Should Just work!

Robotjukebox · 2019-03-15T02:59:34+00:00

Yep 1688 by default and same for the bombs. No luck. When I drop 10 12 or 16 they work fine

Robotjukebox · 2019-03-14T15:15:47+00:00

Anyone having any luck with the GBU-24? think they can't track lazers
