And six kills between us plus a medal for Tom, none of which will count - sigh.

Oh that's nice.

Probably not - not enough people interested in taking part. I don't think anything much has been organised yet.

Friday would work for me Fen - the pubs are open on Saturday so...

Thanks Pattle!

All the best Dave!

All very odd, I had no problems on the DF server earlier in the evening - no problems on start up and taxi out (the pirouette issue on the first start was pilot error - this has been resolved) and takeoff was normal - On the climb out I experienced a loss of power on engine 1 so after cycling throttle and pitch for that engine to no avail I selected the option to feather engine 1's prop and applied full emergency power on engine 2 as the aircraft was on the verge of stalling out at that point. Engine 2 also lost all power at that point and therefore I only managed to get the bombs away and roll the aircraft level before I hit the ground. Fortunately as the aircraft was low and slow at the start of the problems I was able to get away from the crash unhurt. For comparisons with Pook's setup, I run a Sidewinder 2, CH Quadrant and my Frankenbox of tricks which gives me additional axes to control roll, pitch and yaw trim as well as a 2 sets of switches for engine controls (comprising select, start/stop & feather - 1 set per engine) The CH Quadrant has six axes so I have them set up as (in order) Engine 1 Pitch, Engine 1 Throttle, Engine 2 Throttle, Engine 2 Pitch, Mixture (common), Rads (common, not required for all aircraft)

I'm in.

Well, that was...something. Lack of SA led me to not only kill myself but my #2 as well. Sorry Dennis.

This is looking great!

Not any more, but I used to use TouchBuddy - there's posts here on the forum about it. I might look into this though, seems interesting.

Yes, no problem. But I use individual engine controls so I was using the workaround without realising it.

Is this still the worn button problem FT? All the aircraft above work fine for me.

Is it possible to build in some sort of check to identify who is uploading the excluded skins - they may not be aware they are doing so, this may be a good way to help them to resolve the issue?

Well done everyone! And especially well done to Fen for being able to string this all together.

Thanks Sid but I wasn't looking to spend £500+ on a monitor. I'll check Tom's Hardware out though.

Hello chaps, So I'm in the market to replace my venerable Samsung monitor with something new and shiny (and with a VESA mount - which the Samsung does not have). Having done some reading, I see that there are three main display types - TN, VA and IPS. There are pros and cons to all three of these, but which monitor/type have you guys gone for? And what informed your decision?

I've updated the OP with the new collector planes.

I'd definitely be interested.

Good man
