Virpil, VKB, Thrustmaster, Oh My!

I nuked the /saved games/DCS/scripts folder and had simshaker and simapppro rebuild their .lua. now it works as advertised. Funny as the seat and throttle seem often to be perfectly in sync.

Yes it arrived … but hang on shouldn’t there have been 3 packages …



After a minor heart attack it turns out the throttle grip and mfd are still at the dartford fedex centre and will hopefully be here tomorrow … why they didn’t ship together who knows

Congratulations. It’s a fine piece of equipment. What grip did you get?

Recently I got my Varjo Aero with two base stations in three different packages. Go figure.

Very smart to design and show that working over the top of the F-18 kit.

I’m still waiting for somebody other than the insanely expensive Bugeye to put out F-35 controls. Thrustmaster would be ideal.

Oh wow! Yeah! Love how it flips over the top of the F-18 centre piece!

I wouldn’t count on it. The HOTAS is pretty niche and, without a dedicated DCS module (no chance), I wouldn’t expect there to be much demand for it.

I’m still amazed TM didn’t release a throttle to compliment the Hornet stick. They’re just giving away sales to WinWing at this point.

Ever wonder what the inside of your Virpil VPC MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle looks like?

Adjusting these ones?

Originally took off the bottom plate to deal with a couplle of stripped screws connected to a now former mounting solution. Success.
Then as you mentioned, thought, I’ve always wanted to adjust the tension, so did that as well.
