VKB-SIM

Thank you. I will update you if/when this happens again.

MP has been set to 9, these are the updated values.

*Edit* I just realized what you asked. At your request I posted a screenshot containing my calibration settings before and after float. Instead of calibrating again and then waiting for 30 minutes to demonstrate the float a 3rd time, I simply took a screenshot of the post-float conditions at the mom...

Not sure what the indicator is for a calibrated stick. My GF stick (the one the pedals are attached to) is hanging loose in the forward position, which is why the value is not zeroed out. Also, I set the DzLo to 0 myself, I was assuming this is the deadzone setting and eliminated it for more consist...

Don't mind the X/Y Axis on this photo, I have the stick springless for use in helicopter simulation, it is not presenting any problems. Only the Z axis is having issue (pedals).

Been playing a bit of Star Wars Squadrons lately and after about 10-20 minutes, I notice my rolls are much easier in one direction than the other. Examining the VKB axes through VKBDEVConfig shows the center-point shifts 30% in one or another direction. Recalibrating fixes the issue temporarily, onc...

I'm updating this thread as I feel I have finally located the ideal grease for the Gunfighter dampers (at least for my use, which was for helicopters). I have been using it for the last several weeks to great benefit. It improves the damping sensation to a very smooth, consistent resistance and spee...

Would it be possible to come up with a miniature damper that can replace the big meaty spring inside the MKIV? It would enable a more accurate feel and function for helicopters and possibly other aircraft that utilize that system.

Feedback?

This is exactly what I was hoping I could do! Perfect solution. Thanks fallout9!

I set the axis from "Abs" to "Rel" in the axes profile of my left gunfighter and wrote parameters to device. This accomplished my goal.

I've started using my left hand gunfighter with SCG as my collective, and it works GREAT!! I removed the Y-axis springs and have the base pitched at a 45 degree angle with dampers engaged to allow the stick to sit where I leave it. I was originally going to build/buy my own collective for use in sim...

I would also like to express my interest in no-center linear style cams. I am a heli pilot in DCS and also enjoy space sims.
I was under the impression that the soft-center space cams would fit my needs but alas they have not. Useful for throttle/engines, not for aim.

Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. I take it you aren't able to share any technical data on the grease?

Fallout9 were you able to find out which grease was used for this joystick, or any relevant data on the type of grease used? If we can't get ahold of the original, maybe we can find a comparable grease that's available for purchase outside China.

After completing the test of all the other damping greases, I mentioned I would do a followup post mentioning my experience with and a little bit of technical & subjective data on the Nyogel 767a damping grease, commonly touted as the superior option for joystick lubrication/dampening. First the...

Thank you for your praise! I used some of your comments in posts past as basis for my research and they have proved valuable. However, on that note, do you happen to know or would you be able to find out which grease was used in the manufacturing process of the MKII? I would like to get ahold of som...
