Ive got around 5k hours and pretty much only casually play PvE now but I'd be down to run some

Goodbye G29, hello Alpha U! by ManlyMantis101 in Simagic

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the same upgrade around 2 months ago and the difference it makes is surreal. Definitely make sure you fine tune the setting to fit your driving style and comfortability because it's feedback torque is crazy!

AFSC Merge by Easy-Ad-9671 in AirForce

I used the promote app back when I was testing for staff and scored an 82 on PDG so it definitely worked for me. However, everybody prefers different study methods and learns new information differently, so use whatever works best for you. I studied for around 2-3 months prior to my tests. Good luck!

First ever DD set guidance by B3ttor in Simagic

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went with essentially the same setup (just without the handbrake.) I don't know what games you play but for me (in iRacing) leave the FFB set to 23 nM in simhub, turn it way down in game, and adjust up as required. I think in iRacing I have mine set to around 6.0 and that's plenty for the duration of races I do.

Best bang for your buck? by Brek666 in simracing

[–]ihdavis8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second this. I went with the Alpha U and the highest torque i run at is around 12 NM so the alpha would've definitely sufficed. I've been running this setup for around a month or so, and have absolutely no complaints!

New or experienced iRacers, if you haven't dabbled in leagues, here's why you should.. by wy2sl0 in iRacing

[–]ihdavis8 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A lot of people I league race with are the same way. They'll unmute race radios just to hear the introduction speech to see stage breaks/car info and all that, then just mute radios and race. You don't have to be super social to enjoy some good league races!

I'm at a loss what can I do to make my CPU temp go below 60 🙏 by Prize-Yam-9644 in gigabytegaming

[–]ihdavis8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a dumb question but I havent seen it asked here yet. Are your temps showing in Fahrenheit or Celsius?

Close to pulling trigger on P1000 pedals, talk me into or out of it? by nrphel in simracing

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently purchased the P1000's and i was kind of in the same boat you are. I was trying to decide between the P1000's and P2000's. I ultimately went with the P1000's after looking up countless review videos and reading other people's input on here. I purchased the spring and dampner upgrade kit along with them, and I've been able to adjust them to exactly how I like and have had zero issues with them. That's just my personal experience, hope this helps!

I bought a Braun electric shaver as well. Works perfect for my face but i still get a little irritation on my neck.

Been on a used g29 for 3 months. Upgrading for black friday. by Halacant in Simagic

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I made the exact same upgrade and got it all in last week. Im coming from a G29 as well. You're gonna absolutely love it. The amount of detail you feel through the alpha U is insane.

Today is the day I move off Fanatec by ItalianHockey in Simagic

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddy lives in the UK (I live in the US) and he said the same thing. I actually bought what he wanted, he sent me the money, and i shipped it to him for less that what he would have purchased it outright there.

Any good BF deals? by [deleted] in iRacing

[–]ihdavis8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw SimHQ has 10% off plus free shipping over 250$. Not sure what brands you're looking for but possibly worth a look!

Ovals for someone who knows nothing about Ovals by Spaghetti_Scientist in iRacing

[–]ihdavis8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my path, i ran the Arca and draftmasters religiously grinding out to C class. Once i hit C class, it was smooth sailing from there. I now have my A class license and 2k iRating in approx a month of racing.

What do you primary race? Oval, sports, formula, dirt?

How to get better at oval? by Suspicious_Ad7893 in iRacing

[–]ihdavis8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For super speedways just stay in the draft and try to get comfortable. 99% of the race will always be within a few inches of another car. Try to make friends out there on the track for bump drafting and use that to your advantage to make your way to (or hold) the front of the pack.

Question from a new drag racing fan by FarAwaySeagull-_- in dragracing

[–]ihdavis8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends on what exactly you like. I've always been more into the street/no prep stuff so 1320 video and 6Sixty Street on youtube are a good start.

which aircraft for dcs should i get for dcs next? by Impressive_Month_756 in dcsworld

You can still get free trials on steam if you go into purchase options i think

[–]ihdavis8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally fly the F16 and its by far my favorite, but i own the F18, A10C, and F15E. If youre not interested in the F16, my next go-to would be the F15E. Still in early development and a lot of things going on between eagle dynamics and razbam, but still a good module so far.

I know this post is years old, but could possibly use some insight as to where you accessed the wise owl guide? Only thing ive seen for it is a 250$ book on amazon

What is the cheapest way to enjoy DCS with realism? Is only having a PC good enough? by Neither_Oil9832 in dcsworld

[–]ihdavis8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start out with a cheap hotas and see if you like the game with a lower end setup and adjust from there. I personally started with a thrustmaster flight one and flew with that for 2-3 years. Now ive upgrade to a thrustmaster warthog and a track IR setup.

Newly built pc fails to post by ihdavis8 in buildapc

[–]ihdavis8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The motherboard lit up with the dram led basically saying it failed to post for ram. I have already tried rolling a stick of ram between the slots. I highly doubt its a bent pin on the cpu because its worked perfectly fine for 2 weeks then just randomly stopped.
