Yes, landed at a couple of airfields, could well have been you flying with me.

207

Is there any config software for the Bravo?

With the Virpil kit I can actually change the behaviour of switches and axes etc.

I did notice myself in some older titles that the constant fast polling of the virpil throttle could overwhelm the game
but you can dial it out. (Reduce the polling rate type thing) or configure buttons as axes


208

I don’t own one, so I don’t know. Like anything like this, I imagine it could be created


Honeycomb might even work with someone trying to do it


FSUIPC?

209

Is there any way to turn the radio and ATC without pressing ctr+E?

210

Normaly by pressing the “Page up”-key.

This will be resolved in the next update according to Flying Iron.

Joystick Gremlin might work also as it takes the input from the input device and translates that input to a virtual device which the game then see’s so you can do a lot of config stuff with that.

The plane is fantastic. I love it. Any ideas what is next for FlyingIron? I am definitely looking forward to anything they will release in the future.

There are far better solution to reading analogue controls that seldom move, rather than Polling them at a high rate.

Do you really NEED to measure the Throttle accuracy to 16 bit ???

It might be far better to generate an event should the throttle move by more that a certain %, from where it was last read, because it moved.

Same things goes for Flaps & airbrakes.

This become seven more important, when these parameters are sent over Multiplayer and a totally unneeded rate.

“Do you really NEED to measure the Throttle accuracy to 16 bit ???”

In truth in most of my own use cases “no” - which is why I tweak that within the virpil config software.

I have no idea what they’re releasing next, but I see among their X-Plane aircraft they have a P-38L Lightning. I hope that’s the next one they do for MSFS.

It looks nice but the engine sounds like my riding lawn mower.

Doesn’t matter, every sim pilot in the UK will purchase anything with “Spitfire” written on it, including a lawnmower with little fake wings and spade handle on the mowing height control. :wink:

Why is every post of yours meant to disparage something in other people’s work? JustFlight’s Arrow is trash. This one is a lawnmower.

Have your reduced the prop lever to cruise settings after take-off? Nothing like a lawnmower, I assure you!

Maybe it sounds not so good on a pair of cheap headphones, but pipe it out through a decent 5:1 surround system, and it will literally “ROCK YOUR WORLD”

I’m ribbing the overrated Spitfire obsession cult, not disparaging anyone’s work, I’ll leave that to the histrionic “everything is broken, my life is ruined” crowd.

However, it is undeniably axiomatic that if there is a Spitfire add-on module in any sim anywhere, then every subject of the UK must purchase it. Easiest money to be made in the sim world.

It’s the settled Law of the United Kingdom.

The Vulcan is a close second. It has a massive following.

Flying the Spit over the southern coast in the golden hour before sunset is magic.

But it sounds like my lawnmower. :wink:

I mean, what did you expect? When the Mig gets released, I bet every Russian simmer would buy one, so
 no surprise there. :wink:
