NOTE: Here are a few corrections:
A) If you buy a Gamer Plus or Gamer Pro directly from thebuttkicker.com/ you get either the HaptiConnect Standard Track Pack or Flight Pack at no charge (Choose One). If you purchase from some other retailer, you can register it with SN of the Amplifier and receive a free Standard Track Pack or Flight Pack Download At no charge. If you purchased from the company directly, you are automatically registered.
B) The ButtKicker Mini IFE is not listed as a gaming unit and I recommend you do your research of how to integrate it before selecting that as an option. I'm sure with some ingenuity you could make it work.

I finally got my BK Pro dialed in and I must say it’s awesome in the Apache, Viper, and Warbirds Bf-109/Spitfire. One thing tho said in the video either part 1 or this one the flare works but in my case I can’t control the sensitivity. I can put it all the way down to 1 on the sensitivity slider and it still goes so hard like it’s 100% so I have to turn chaff and flare off. Chaff didn’t work anyways so that’s off for that reason. Do you have a similar issue with the flares? Flares go so hard! I can’t turn them down.

I love the Buttkicker Plus after spending just a little over an hour goofing around in DCS with it. It’s extremely easy to setup the hardware, and a breeze to install the software. I’m new to DCS, and I’m currently learning the A10 CII. My only complaint is that I wish I had known that it would take a little while to learn the modules. That’s not a complaint. I wouldn’t have it any other way. The problem is, I went out and purchased all of the modules and some peripherals for the A10, F16, F15E, F18, F14 and Apache before I ever got the A10 off the ground. 😂 Oh well. I’m retired and there’s no rush to get anything done.

@AIRWARFAREGROUP 5 ай бұрын

It’s great when people join DCS through their website and save 50% on their order and get a lot of aircraft. I have friends who did basically everything you did and they eventually get to use the other modules in a year or so. This experience is just one of the reasons why I tell people that DCS isn’t a simple video game. When Nick and Igor released DCS in their eighth year of doing business together they could have just called it something like “Jet Combat” or “Fighter Planes” or something similar to the other games we have on Steam. But KUDOS to them for naming it what it is (Digital Combat Simulator) and I think it’s the best time investment ever to help me and my veteran friends reconnect with our past in military aviation. This video demonstrates how I feel about DCS. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jr99qNqcz7mpfWg.htmlsi=egK-oaPvP2qtiERR

I realy would like to know how much you benefit from G's feedback in the break turn of carrier landing pattern. Can you tell from the vibration when you are pulling 3.5 G?

@AIRWARFAREGROUP 5 ай бұрын

I just tested this before bed last night and it’s recognizable but my technique has always been to cross check the HUD information to sustain G 1% to Speed so for me it’s just background feel. Where I noticed the G feedback most is in tactical maneuvering.

@nazradu 5 ай бұрын

@@AIRWARFAREGROUP mh yeah in the F-14 it's a "wide frame" if you want to check G. And as the instrument is so far right and down you can loose track of altitude and speed. But I expected from the Butt Kicker that you just know that you are pulling G without the ability to say how many. Even though this would be a selling Point hard to ignore. Maybe you fly blind folded and try to gess the amount of G you are loading😅

Butt kicker is awesome. You need to also add the jet pad as well.

I got the HF8 from NLR for review but didn't like it. One, it had no direct plugin for DCS and I don't think they have it yet to this day. Two, it changed the whole dynamic of my sim rig, added measurement considerations and drew away from the military appeal. It seemed perfect for a racing chair or office chair, so I sent it to Tekada_AWG for a RACE REVIEW which he's coming around to doing.

@MeplusYellow 5 ай бұрын

@@AIRWARFAREGROUPI didn’t like the HF8 either. I’m referring to the simshaker jet pad and their software. It just goes right onto the seat and can be unplugged and put back in the closet. It connects through one USB 3.0 cable and power. The sim shaker software is also incredibly detailed and has all effects modeled. Once you tune it (not vanilla settings for anyone you can really baseline) it’s incredible and even the butt kicker alone seems a bit flat after that. Definitely worth checking out.

So the hapti connect can be used with any transducers? I have 2x Dayton bst-1 shakers which I just run a separate sound channel through with a bit of EQ. Works quite well and was my preference over sim shaker which was how I started. That felt a bit fake and out of sync most of the time. Game sound is awesome but varies a bit with module sound quality. Would like to try another telemetry option.

The audio patch for me only gave me basic rumbles, no differential in intensity based upon the type of input needed for different things. Everything was one bump of the same thing. I love that I can dial down the buffeting, the gear and flaps affects, and what's neat is it is automatically graduated from the difference in speed. The speedbrake at low airspeed is not as intense as when flying faster. Do let us know what you find out on using HC with your transducers. I think you have to have a USB plugin to get it to work and I can say the software automatically recognizes hardware when plugged in. message me on discord if you want to chat on it. juice_awg

Yes and no. So, if you get a ButtKicker and use third-party software, you can dial it in more precise. For DCS and HaptiConnect software that comes with BK, the runway is textured but no "Thud" when you land, nor is there any crash dynamic. I'm still pressing ED and Guitammer to work together to get the data points loaded and plugged into the HaptiConnect Software. The beta launch of the DCS Plugin is just a year old this month.

I just don’t wanna make it look like we’re tooting our own horn, but I want to let you know it’s being looked into right away. Good spot Stew and it’s one of the first things I noticed. For the damage feedback like crash landing those are things we have to get added in DCS first then we can add it to the haptics feedback. Fingers crossed for a win-win situation for everybody.

That was 10-15 minutes of you flying around in silence.. the least you could have done is comment on the feedback you’re getting from the device as you are flying and trying things out.
