T_O_A_D Posted December 26, 2016 Share Posted December 26, 2016 Howdy all, I have overlooked this since installing DCS about 6 years ago, and each time I've flown it I have gotten disgusted with this problem or the combination of them changinging the controls on each update. Or the fact that I wasn't saving my setup per plane in its own folfer, and re-writing it with each plane and screwing up the last. Al those problems have been over come, but this one until a couple nights ago. FT and a few others and I was on and just discussing plane setup for the Spitfire, and FT just causually said something about the the FFB swap. Becausse he was fighting something else. I had been fighing alerion roll since the beggining with elevator trim, and was too dense to realize that this game can invert the FFB, all other games hadn't. I spoke up and he said he was sure Fenrir had set him straight on this problem but was at a loss at to what and why and went diggging for some notes. I looked at the control setting for the FFTune and saw it. But walla! once I swapped it this game just became loveable I can actually trim one out and let go of the stick. I had never though about about them being backwards, I just assumed that screen was there to soften or increase the forces. Should of looked closer. Still amazed I was so thick LOL Today I found out Funflack was too ;-) and I walked him through the fix. So now you know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfesser Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 There are 3 boxes there I can't see in your pic. I assume it's the top box (Swap Axis) you have checked? You left the Trimmer Force and Shake at the default everywhere? I found a Sidewinder 2 nearby for under $100 and am now doing all my controls over again. Not enough buttons!

Crash Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 I wish there was a FFB mod for the Warthog. I do get a bit of shake with the gear/flaps down and as I approach stall but its not the real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2. Administrators Jabo Posted April 10, 2017 2. Administrators Share Posted April 10, 2017 Fingers crossed it will mate, I've had mine five years and it was second hand then! Point I was trying to make though is that stuff eventually breaks down so if you were on eBay and spotted a cheapish one then it might be worth snapping it up. I bought my spare three years ago and thus far I've not needed it!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingflyr Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Yeah may have to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
