  1. Are you using the Saitek profiling software, so you can map a key/key combo to a button? Alternatively try 'Settings' -> 'Sound Input Settings' -> click the push to talk Bulls eye, then click the 'set' button, then press key you want push to talk assigned to. If that doesn't pick up a button press make sure 'settings' -> 'options' -> 'other' does not have 'Disable Direct Input' disabled.
  2. I live in close proximity to the flight path for the Imperial War Museum Duxford, home of quite a few Spitfires. This time of the year I often hear the sound of a Merlin or Griffon, and the wife is accustomed to my running outside staring up at the heavens in a way I used to regard her....
  3. Hmmm. Wonder if that is the same issue I have with my DFI board. If I power off it can take 30 mins or more to get it to fire up again, lights flash but no-one at home...really scary...dare I try it...it's running Ok but if I turn it off...
  4. Broke a torsion rod on a 914 in '80, doing a slalom in Germany, well technically it was a 'Driving Skills' test for insurance purposes (which meant there was at least one reversing section). Great fun to drive, and I was glad it wasn't mine...sort of... Nice Riley BG, my Dad was a Riley fan, IIRC it was the 1.25 he had, was a sad day when one of the big ends started to knock. He drove it to a car dealer, let her cool down, then drove in and haggled a part exchange for a Ford Anglia estate. When the dealer fired the Riley up she was whisper quiet...bet he cursed a day or two later when he found he'd bought a pup.
  5. OK so our marksmanship hasn't improved in your absence, no need to rub it in!
  6. There are times when I'd pay some one to steal one, two or three of ours....
  7. Sheep stealing is OK! Just don't steal ours but do share the ones you steal from others....thought I'd better clear that up right now.
  8. Good to see you back m8
  9. Owww. Klinger M8 that brought my arse up around my neck. I split the end of my thumb once with a club hammer nailing plaster board up on the ceiling, I use drywall screws now. Much less painful and many times more efficient!
  10. You need to love it and show it some respect, it's hurting to tell you something. A bit kooky and new age but there you go! What did you do to injure it? I have had major success with Chiropractic treatment personally, once I picked up my M/bike after it toppled over. It weighed 659.2 lbs. Two days later my back let me know I shouldn't have done that, doctor visited me where I lay immobilised in bed, prescribed valium and codeine. I was then able to visit my Chiropractor who put everything straight in one half hour session.
  11. I seized a BSA Bantam when I was 15...well I got the blame for not buying 2 stroke from the right pump Bike belonged to a guy called Kevin Adams, lived two doors down and he and I played guitar/bass together. He must have been better than me 'cos he ended up in Dexys Midnight Runners (known as 'Billy the Kid' then). Fired SLR 7.62, SMG 9 mm: had a negligent discharge with on on a range one day when I failed to cock it correctly. Horrible moment that was having to raise my hand, from prone position, to say 'It was me'. Fired the brit issue 9mm browning pistol too. Drove through an impromptu German Police roadblock in a AFV 434 (tracked recovery vehicle) without stopping on the way to recover a bogged down Scammel recovery truck and a Scimitar also bogged down. Once whilst driving down an Autobahn in same 434 saw a blue articulated lorry come alongside my left to over take, tracked vehicles have a tendency to drift due to unequal track lengths so constant adjustment is required. tTapped the right tiller to correct drift to the left, looked in mirror and truck was dropping back. 'Odd' I thought. 40 miles later we took a break, pulled over into a rastplatz and did the usual walk around to make sure nothing had dropped of or was about to, noticed the armoured brackets down the left ahnd side were flattened and had blue paint on them...oops! Adjusting direction whilst the lorry was coming by had caused the 439 to twitch it's back end out and hit the lorry. Must have made one hell of a mess of the lorry...but I didn't feel a thing! We had a past time in Germany driving the AFVs, kerb stone flicking. If you clipped a kerb stone just right it would flick it out of it's foundations like a tiddly wink. Dangerous but a good point scheme .
  12. Pretty average actually From the get go Windows has invalid registry entries, and this just gets worse as apllications are installed/uninstalled. I use registry mechanic on a regular basis, and the improved boot time is tangible. Worth the $30 (I think that's how much it is) IMHO.
  13. Well I was half right...only one has a USB. X45 is as I said though, throttle plugs into stick, stick plugs into USB... Why not use the stick as a button bay though...unless desk space is at a premium...
  14. Nope - throttle plugs into Joystick which in turn plugs into USB port, hence both units are enabled.
  15. Usual thing is to simply plug in the X52 Hotas as is, but put the Joystick out of the way (but in reach as it becomes a 'button bay'). I did just this with my X45/MSFFB2 combo, never ever flew with the X45, just used the throttle and the buttons on the joystick. If the X52 takes controller ID #1 setting curves can be a little tricky, use IL2 Sticks as FB won't allow curve setting for ID
  16. And most of them will be welsh or from NZ, or a Danger Dog And all wearing Wellington Boots!
  17. What spec is your system Dazza? I may be able to help with some bits..don't want to see you go down the slippery road to console world...
  18. RIP indeed, quite a guy it seems. Flying right up to the end.
  19. I uploaded both videos to our server here: http://www.dangerdogz.com/oldfiles/GT_Promo8.zip and http://www.dangerdogz.com/oldfiles/GT_Promo7.zip So should download a little quicker.
  20. Not enough space on the world wide web to state what I'm confused about!
  21. Success! At least one person was confused, besides me that is
  22. Moved to General Forum. Web Site rebuild is in hand, should be finished this week and I'll make this part of it. Good point on download area, again when I have finished the revamp I will post link to download (this will be different because it is a new system).
