WinWing Hardware

We are excited to support the release of the Viper Orion HOTAS by WinWing. They have recreated the legendary F-16s throttle and grip that is based on the real-world version and uses mechanical movement.

The Orion HOTAS  is the most accurate F-16 throttle ever created for the entertainment market. It consists of a full metal design blended with generic use controls for a broad array of DCS aircraft. 

The control stick replicates the real F-16 grip and includes an optional attachment for expanded inputs. The grip also has a haptic feedback module.

AH-64D Guide Available 

To give you a head start learning to fly and operate the AH-64D, we have released the Early Access manual. Please find the PDF document here.

Spanning 361 pages, the guide provides a detailed accounting of all the history, sensors, weapons, systems and basic tactics of our AH-64D. The guide is a work-in-progress and as new systems are added to the module, the guide will be updated. We believe, more than anything else so far, that the guide illustrates the extreme amount of detail and care that has gone into this project. Enjoy.

F-16C Viper Development Progress

We have added BDU-50 training bombs, the Max Toss Anticipation cue to accompany the recently added Dive Toss bombing mode, the “Lock” voice message when you lock up a target in an Air Combat Maneuvering (ACM) radar mode, and changed the HMCS symbology for ACM Slew mode.

Improvements have also been made to the G-onset and Instantaneous Turn Rate and are undergoing tests. We hope and expect to have this to you shortly.

OH-58D Kiowa Development Report

DCS: OH-58D Kiowa and ‘Barundus’
“The model is based on one of our main SME. Barundus will also speak voice commands for AI and in campaigns. We strongly believe this will benefit the virtual flying experience. 

Barundus has over 5300 flight hours and was an instructor pilot in the Bell OH58D Kiowa Warrior. He has been deployed to numerous combat tours and this will also contribute to AI behaviour.

We have made the decision to present the whole timeline of the aircraft from 1984 till 2017 with some exceptions to avionics. This means the product will include the OH-58D Kiowa (no weapons pylons), the OH-58D Kiowa Warrior from 1992 till 2006 and the latest aircraft of 2017 all in one module”.
