Thunderchief2000 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Hi can anyone tell me if it is possible to run two warthogs at the same time on DCS? Because I use my first warthog base with a tube extension and the F/A18 stick I have this idea to buy another Magnetic Base and use my A10c/F16 stick on it as a side stick for the F16 module. I assume it should work because it looks like they have a separate ID, but it would be nice to know for sure before stumping up the cash for the extra base. (as a crazy idea what about two throttles?) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VpR81 Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Not sure if this would work, but you could try following: Use one TM base free and ingame mapped and the second one with a TARGET profile, as TARGET will morph your controllers included in the profile to a separate virtual controller. This should work, also for the throttle. Besides that, i would rather purchase a VPC WarBRD base instead of a second TM base. It´s a bit more expensive, but you´ll get what you´ll pay for. I got a similar setup as you are planning to get. TM base with extension and TM F/A-18 grip on top center mounted, VPC WarBRD base with TM A-10/F-16 grip as sidestick. Absolutely happy with the WarBRD base and i would never exchange it for a second TM base.

Thunderchief2000 Posted March 12, 2020 Author Share Posted March 12, 2020 Thanks for the reply, I've not considered the Virpl base, I'll have a look at it, its a little more than the warthog though. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlacleyCole Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Yes select the center stick for the ctr stk ac and the side stick for the f16 share the rudder pedals and either use the Cougar throttle for the viper and the warthog for the rest that’s my plan plus adding a collective for helos BlackeyCole 20years usaf XP-11.

No problem. Yes the WarBRD is a bit more than the TM base, but worth every penny.

Chacer Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I just use a switched USB hub to switch between sticks. Works for me!

Thunderchief2000 Posted April 6, 2020 Author Share Posted April 6, 2020 Hi guys, thanks for all the replies, I got the F-16 last week and was able to get hold of a magnetic base at the weekend. (£100, not bad price) setup temporary side stick mount and its great. :-) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
