Hi All, As a long term Condor user the one thing I have head a lot of complaints about and that is Joysticks. The general consciences from the condor forums (lot of info there) is to stay away from Logitech. They just don't seam to have the sensitivity required. The brand most go for is Saitek and the a have a full range for most budgets. You could check that you have "stick trim where available" un ticked on the input tab under setup. Also check you have patch 10 i.e. condor version 1.1.0 as this will give a % display on the bottom left of you trim position each time it is moved. If you have any other problem with condor just ask as it is great fun but remember it will take some time to get use to flying without bum feel (I find any glider pilot how also fly Radio Control has less of a problem) and it is like full size when I say time I mean 100+hours so don't despair as we all had the same problems to start with. If you want more tips on Condor just ask. regards, Arie
_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peter Stephenson Sent: Monday, 26 March 2007 9:11 PM To: Soaring List Subject: [Aus-soaring] Condor problems Can anyone advise me on the problems we have with Condor? My trim does not work either which makes it tiring on long Xcountries. My joystick is a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Does anyone use a joystick that has trim control and feed back that works? PeterS . tried that and no go. xxxx _____ :-( Perhaps you need to activate it in the setup? PeterS I do have a force feed back stick but it does not seem to work on Condor. I have only had the program for a week, xxxx is the one who knows it well. If you put the nose down and then bank and pull back stick to create the spiral dive you will rapidly black out just before you hear the wing snap off! Regards xxxx Do you have a feed-back joy-stick that demonstrates the unloading of the elevator? I do not have one but am considering buying one. If you do a loop and pull back too hard the screen greys out and you hear the spar groaning. :-) Fantastic program. PeterS Hi all Tried a dozen spiral dives on condor flight simulator. Even without the G’s which would make it dramatically worse, it all happens very quickly. Snapped a few wings. Equally so I found it a it a great way to drill the correct procedure for recovery. Perhaps the only way to demonstrate it. Regards xxxx -- No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
