T-38A Is OUT!

As with any even semi advanced FS aircraft, a joystick is really needed to fly it. An expensive one is not needed. I use a Saitek one that breaks down for transport and has two throttles (for the T-38 I set the #2 throttle to the speed brake) and is not expensive.

Thanks and apologies for sidebarring just a sec from such a great plane.

Anytime you want to use FSUIPC for your own purposes you must purchase the full version.. When I bougth the FS Labs Concorde X (and I have had this issue with PMDG's MD-11X) I was experiencing the dreaded S-turns on autopilot in bad weather.. I wound up buying the full version of FSUIPC as you can set how fast the winds change. So it is useful for a lot more things that just setting joystick preferences/axis. Certaintly has made my flying experience better since I purchased it sometime last year.
 
TM Warthog cool with Talon

Matt,
Milviz gave us a file containing macros for many functions in cockpit like engine starters that are otherwise limited to mouse clicks. You can assign the start engine switches to toggles on the throttle. Even the finger lifts built into the Warthog (now that's cool). I think you have to have the registered version of FSUIPC4, but, that eliminates profiles. Realism and immersion is awesome when you lift the throttles, shove to idle and move the starter switches (just like starting the A-10C in another sim). Bringing the T-38A to life in such a way is the best "feel there" going, until you get this ANIMAL in the air.

Note: don't gotta have an expensive Warthog to use the macros

Hi.

How is working the multiplayer now? Is that fix?

Has anybody given a try to the shared cockpit? I think this can be an awesome plane to share cockpit and if that works I will purchase it on the spot.

Cheers

MP now works. Shared cockpit, I doubt it. Too many "special" variables to transmit. But you can try it if you wish...

We will be releasing the patch which, btw, has a lot more than just fixes in it...
 
This may be a dumb question.... But how will we get the patch? Will we have to run the installer again, or download from your site?
 
can not wait....... however, I'm afraid that a month of fieldwork on a reservation in North Dakota will keep me away from flying the Talon until September.... hopefully a patch by the time I get back?
 
Warthog owners, does lifting the throttle lever past idle detent cause a button press in FSX, or can the area underneath idle detent used for linearily incresing/decresing reverse thrust?

How can you configure that specific zone with TARGET?

Yes it does. Each throttle lift cause a separate button. I use the T-38 Macro and made one for the Iris PC-9/T-6 to operate the cutoff.

I don't know about T.A.R.G.E.T? I have always used FSUIPC to program the Warthog functions. I a, pretty sure you can set the throttles in FSUIPC to operate reverse thrust. You can set the -16xxx point before or after the detentes. I don't know how much throw you have afterward, however.
 
Very nice repaint Zsoltquack! Have to let me know where to get that one when you are finished. In the mean time Gunnar's rendition of the US Navy Test Pilot School is here for your enjoyment! The download link is below, and also some screenshots of the new livery (also taken by Gunnar!). Thanks everyone for your support, and we all hope you enjoy.

Edit: That was thoughtless of me. I forgot to include the link! You either get it at our forums at www.milviz.com or just direct download it here: <!-- m -->http://www.milviz.com/Northrop/NAVY.zip<!-- m -->
