Nice! I got me 1 too. Really like it and hope they continue to improve it. Just wish they would improve the key mapping. Each PTU build screws up my controllers (Using 4) and its getting a right royal PITA reassigning them each time. Did try other sofdtware like SC Key mapper but could not figure out how to change the inputs...maybe one day...

Oh yeah? Well here's be BEING a pirate!
You have a super computer? Is Star Citizen viable and competitive with a hotas yet, or are we still forced to use mouse or face certain death? This new 3.3 really boosted performance. Im sure they will have a free flight by years end. Id test it then to see if it runs well.

Are the joystick profiles still unnamed? I found that quite frustrating not to know what profile you were mapping what. Four profiles but with no ID, so what´s what! At least that´s how it was not long ago...

Yes, they are still un named. I've given up on the joystick until they leave PTU. In PTU they are releasing one patch a day minimum and every new patch requires you to reset your joystick profile or at least copy it out and write over the new profile.
I've been just flying around with the mouse for now. Its not perfect but it works for seeing the sights.

I think they've spent almost ALL of the money sofar on core tech. They rewrote the whole cryteck engine to be 64bit multithread. But they just finished that monumental task this month. Now that they have it done they are trying to get it working right. (still CTD every 30-60 min) but once it is smooth they are going to start adding content and QOL stuff like new flight models and joystick support. It's been a long road to say the least, keep your eyes on it over the next few months. It should get better at an exponential rate compare to the past few years.

I guess you're lucky, Master. Star Citizen crashes for me constantly, and I can't play for more than a short while.

I put my Track IR away ages ago because I was done with flight sims. Looks like I'll be setting it back up tomorrow

Track IR is now working,I just need to fine tune it. I can't remember what the best settings were for me,it's so long since I used it. I don't seem able to zoom in/out,is that not working? I have ver 5 Track IR.

I had to hunt a bounty in a cave today. That was fun. Shooting a random civilian next to him who I thought was his hostile buddy... not as much. Human player dead. Oh well. I got the bounty. Also, popping Constellations is pretty easy if you get behind them. Falcon BMS Formation flying skills come in pretty handy here.

I've done some of that myself. I only wish SC's combat was less yaw focused so I didn't have to set roll to my pedals and yaw to my x axis on my stick. I'm fine as it is, but my flying skills suffer because my hours in sims are used to the other way. Once I'm on the six of a Constellation, that thing is gonna pop. And my maxed out 300i eats them for breakfast. Dual shredders plus a predator shotty. Holy moly the predator is nasty on ships sized medium and up. Once a Constellation's shields drop, I'm able to pop them in a couple of seconds.

In the Arena Commander, the Vandul swarm clearly out maneuvered my 325a, speed wise aswell. My rist was starting to feel strain, that said I don´t have curves tweaked or anything, but inicialy I think the ratio (pitch/yaw) of the 325a is quite weak (slow). Maybe I need more time flying in SC, and last time I did anything flying related was in 2015, so rusted is not the word hehe. Or Iam just used to flying in DCS, and have to get used to flying in space (SC). But yeah, loving the feeling Iam getting with SC overall Do need to do more flying though...
