Thanks, and you too
I have been working on a new configuration file for my solo Warthog throttle and my new stick during december
Its not perfect, but I think It will do for participating in the IL2-BoX campaign
Xmas gift!!!
This is a wonderful news nick!!! Happy to have you back on board!
I took a major step to get back into the air the week
Manufatures of my stick, throttle, pedals and TrackIR all recommend that we donât use a USB hub
And for as long as I can remenber I have had a lack of USB connections.
So I fianlly bought a USB controller card (and and eSATA card) and a USB connector cable for the remaining USB connections on my motherboard.
I had estimated this upgrade to take a couple of hours, but I ended up more than 8 hours
What started out as a few cards and a connector ended up with a stripping the computer down to just the case with the motherboard (with cpu+cooler).
The build quality of the backplace the case has always been a bit off. Which resulted in a loose network cable, and having to displace the grafix card a few milimeters in order to be able to connect the monitor cable.
With the need for space to the new controller cards, this was no longer an option
So I ended up operating on the case with a dremmel tool
and rewiring all the cable incluting those around my desk
I am already in love with this new upgrad
It gives me the flexability to have 2 free USB connections for USB stick and portable harddisk AND I am finally ready to fly
So, will we see you monday evening???
MMM A little overkilll!
i have everything going trough a good quality USB 7 port hub!
also leap motion wich is critical doesnât have problems!
this also makes flight sim peripheral management easier with an usb shoot down button and a power strip!
the only thing connected directly trough pc is arduino cause managing the data flow from DCS bios is hugeâŚ! (arduino controls the Bug Force Feedback )
Anyway happy you are satisfied with your new setup!
I am working on getting ready for tonigt right nowâŚbut that is on BoX.
No time for DCS at the moment.
@Jimmi_EAF51
What is a good quality USB hub?
Make and model, please -)
And what is an âBug Force Feedbackâ?
I am unable to find a good link to your reference
Absolutely talking about box, we are preparing for a campaign, specifically on the dark side this evening
This is the link to your reference
oops, in italian
anyway, @Jimmi_EAF51 can provide few pictures of its setup. Better structure and electronicsâŚ
I canât find out where my F trackIR cable are going, but the F*** thing is not on
finally got it nailed down
Good to hear you again on TS Starfire!
And you too
I hope all is well.
When I flew yesterday, one of you had only basic controls on his HOTAS.
If it is a Thrusmaster, I would like to help!
I have quite a lot of experiance with programming Thrustmasters, and my current need to reprogram my own will force me to get reaquinted with the programming.
it was me but to be honest i donât mind using keyboard for majority of the stuff, iâm just used to it, thanks anyway
after some hit and miss found this
paired with this longer cable
and together they works like a charm!
Note for the peripherals attached (mfg pedals, wharthog throttle and Vkb stick) I donât need the power supply and the usb hub works fine without it ( the external amplifier/sound card for the bass shaker, and the SIMSHAKER JETPAd have their own power suppliesâŚ)
Iâll definitely need to post some pictures of my setup!
Thanks
