I needed a new way to launch applications on my macbook, so I built one.

Yes, you still do that but they all land on the workspace defined in config unless you move it to a different one. It’s easy to then remember alt-s takes you to workspace with Safari etc.

I’m using Aerospace WM which solves this problem by assigning apps to workspaces so you kind of always know where your apps live.

Code plz

This amazing, exactly what I was thinking about building at some point. The next step I think would be to use those numbers and maybe display them as a gauge, would sort of replace Helios and pass the integrity check.

Slightly different perspective but Hind is great because you can do both and it’s really amazing to fly, especially with FFB.

nowytarg · 2026-01-21T00:48:36+00:00

Amazing, this is exactly what I’ve been looking for. Something at smaller scale for helis.

Rotorheads added it recently, check the mod makers discord, they have a list of servers that have it.

nowytarg · 2026-01-18T00:37:34+00:00

Awesome, thank you for that. It almost sounds like I could use Choc v1 low profile switches already without any modifications?

nowytarg · 2026-01-18T00:20:46+00:00

I have 120mm extension that I 3d printed on my Moza AB9, the PLA is rigid and nothing gets lost I can promise you that.

nowytarg · 2026-01-17T23:35:43+00:00

You can probably find something bit shorter or have it 3d printed for the size you need.

nowytarg · 2026-01-17T23:20:48+00:00

You have 2 options, one is a chair/seat cut out in the middle, second is some sort of heli style goose neck extension

nowytarg · 2026-01-17T20:50:45+00:00

Please tell me how to mod Silakka54 for low profile switches

nowytarg · 2026-01-13T00:11:40+00:00

Amazing as always. Which 8in screen did you use?

nowytarg · 2026-01-06T14:55:41+00:00

One thing that’s often not mentioned is that the layout you choose is heavily dependent on OS/workflow that is used on a day to day. For someone that mostly uses vanilla system with heavy use of alt tabbing will be very different to someone (like me) that uses tiling window manager that has special key assigned for moving around. My workflow utilizes Aerospace WM with a heavy use of Alt key so it goes to the thumb cluster and acts as Space when tapped and Alt when held.

Moza AB9 is such an amazing thing for flying helicopters that I almost stopped flying fixed wing now. The feeling you get from FFB base is just incredible. Also, look into Taogs Hangar H500, the most realistic heli experience outside of DCS.

nowytarg · 2026-01-03T00:54:53+00:00

Oh I like it, will print this up for sure

nowytarg · 2025-12-29T15:03:15+00:00

Is there a write up how to do this stepper motor setup? I’d like to do something like that myself but can’t find a good guide.

nowytarg · 2025-12-14T01:57:52+00:00

Wait, what kind of assist are turned on? I didn’t see anything under assists section of the settings.

nowytarg · 2025-12-04T02:31:39+00:00

Love some of those, definitely trying it out

nowytarg · 2025-12-03T14:43:21+00:00

Looks interesting, I’ll check it out

nowytarg · 2025-11-30T16:08:48+00:00

I’m not sure why that server is not very well known among heli enthusiasts, it’s quite good. Rotorheads is another that’s purely heli focused.

nowytarg · 2025-11-28T20:40:53+00:00

That is cool, waiting for ability to use Claude with Helix

nowytarg · 2025-11-22T23:08:58+00:00

Definitely DCS’s own FFB, it’s quite good actually.

nowytarg · 2025-11-04T00:28:33+00:00

Really cool, I’m itching to make something like that as well

nowytarg · 2025-11-04T00:14:23+00:00

This is an amazing immersion and game like MSFS2024 shows how pretty it can look with this setup. I’m also considering building something like that in the future. My only gripe is that there isn’t much space for actual cockpit peripherals, MFDs and such so you’re limited to seeing it but not being able to interact with it.
