Force trim is holding your cyclic in place by electromagnetic clutches that you interrupt when holding the button. Aka you interrupt, move stick, release -> new center.
With trim he probably refers to the hat trimming where you move the new center by pressing the hat in a direction with the system moving the stick there.
@walmis just wanted to thank you for everything you've done. I recently completed a DIY with your motors and board... and it is fantastic. So, thank you for all your work!
@Number481 I’m searching through the channel looking for photos/people using the virpil z-extension with their setup, are you still using it? what do(did) you like and dislike the most about it?
VPrhino owner #820 here. Oh my god this is amazing. Just plugged it in for the first time and I feel like a woman having her first experience with an electric vibrator. I’m never going back to the old ways, I’m forever changed
The F16 is a fly-by-wire aircraft which have little FFB in the first place, and then its also a force sensing stick which basically has no feedback. I assume there will be little you can do unless you make something with telemFFB
There are some basic effects, you can for example feel g's as you pull, with telemffb of course. And you can use a profile with significantly reduced throw range to make it feel real snappy.
DCS creates a profile for each iteration of controller, for each plane and cockpit postion. It will automatically use that profile whenever DCS detects that controller is active. You will want to save these profiles, one for each device\plane somewhere you can get to them. I use a folder inside of my saved games folder for this.
Hi there, Coming back to DCS after a long break, flying warbirds only at the moment. Does anybody have a good setting to get the stick stiffening with increasing airspeed ? Thanks
FC Technologies were kind enough to lend me their line of grips for testing and support for the next firmware revision In the photo - NS-37, EVO and FC-35 grips. Gotta say, the build quality feels pretty nice.
Button mapping is specific to each sim since the commands aren’t standardized. But, among the different DCS aircraft you can load a similar set up as a template.
