@VIRPILControls get this man a collective!
That’s pretty awesome.
Great setup, I loved the cabinet concept.
Honeycomb is one of the less expensive yokes, it revivals most of the $500+ yokes.
digging the cabinet catch solution for mounting the key tray and MFDs.... very nice. How do you like using the warthog for the collective vs. the logi? I was watching the blackhawk dcs video a while back and it looked like you mounted the logi upside down to use it that way? What do you do in that regards using the warthog for collective other than flipping the axis ?
Thanks for the comment. I find that using the warthog on reverse axis is as good as I need it. I like the compact setup and the fact that I can hide it in the closet. Looks very clean and the rest of my office/mancave/beat laboratory feels more free.
Sure, I guess a nice collective would be more immersive, but as somebody who flies helicopters on a daily basis, I think it's a bit of over kill. The Warthog setup is more than I probably would have spent but TM sent them to me for free and I absolutely love them. Just as easy to use the throttle in reverse as a real collective. I guess you have to use a bit of imagination but once I'm in the pit, it is all intuitive.
Looks sweet, man! Mine is pretty humble in comparison lol
Thanks! I had to make a lot of budget decisions. Ultimately, Thrustmaster hooked me up with a lot of stuff and I wheeled and dealed for a lot of the components.
After seeing your flight sim set up, Im tossing my Xbox out the back door. Sigh
I played MSFS on a macbook (Lowest settings and still only got about 20fps) with a logitech extreme 3D for about two years before this upgrade. Lots of time, saving money, wheeling and dealing, doing extra work to make extra cash....but worth it in the end.
i’ve had an issue with the saitek throttle quadrant where the input jitters around a lot in dcs, do you get the same?
Nope. Check your bindings. Maybe you have something else binded to the same input and they are competing.
