Krupi Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 The bottom of the sticks appears to be moving, it is like the axis is off set. It turns around the elevator rod rather than move it! :huh::huh: Windows 10 Pro | ASUS RANGER VIII | i5 6600K @ 4.6GHz| MSI RTX 2060 SUPER | 32GB RAM | Corsair H100i | Corsair Carbide 540 | HP Reverb G2 | MFG crosswind Pedals | Custom Spitfire Cockpit Project IX Cockpit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krupi Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 Just out of interest is anyone else seeing this?

P3CFE Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I think I know wat you mean. But the the stick is swiveling around this fixed point, this is not the elevator rod. The elevator rod is attached to the lowest end of the stick, a short length below this swivel point. If you have track IR you can lean fwd to look down in the hole, past the swivel point, and see the actual elevator rod. As I see it, it works fine and the linkage is as it should be. Hope this helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krupi Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 I think we are on the same page, so to clarify.... Red is where the column axis should be an Blue is what we currently see?

P3CFE Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Not really sure what you mean by column axis. but.. Red is where, in reality, the push pull rod from the elevator is connected (lowest point of the stick) Blue is where the stick swivels around. ( a fixed point in the frame with a bold /nut connection for the hinge..). So if you push the stick fwd , the bottom end is moving backward because of the swivel or hinge point (blue), and pushes the elevator down. Greetz..

razo+r Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I can say, that the animation is correctly If the stick would be attached at the red point, you couldn't move your elevators, so it's fixed at the blue point, where we have it in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krupi Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 No that is my point the current hinge point is actually the rod that drives the elevator. There is nothing below the blue point that drives the elevator...

Krupi Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 There is, look closely Also if you follow the gearbox motion it currently clashes with the structure! :doh: I think this is one of the main reasons the spitfire had low elevator forces a MASSIVE leverage system.

P3CFE Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Ah, now I see it... it looked as a logical construction in the Game, but now I see that in the real Spit is different. You are correct Krupi, it is a Bug, and a real big one too I think, I hope it is not to much work for the Dev's to correct. !!

P3CFE Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 The stick Looks great, And they say, it is just a hobby.....:) Is it working out to get it functional in pitch and roll ?? The roll mechanism seems difficult to do to me ! Have fun building.. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a idea or two, once I am a bit further along I plan on bouncing the idea off the cockpit builders on this forum and see what they say :joystick: Windows 10 Pro | ASUS RANGER VIII | i5 6600K @ 4.6GHz| MSI RTX 2060 SUPER | 32GB RAM | Corsair H100i | Corsair Carbide 540 | HP Reverb G2 | MFG crosswind Pedals | Custom Spitfire Cockpit Project IX Cockpit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sokol1_br Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Krupi Take a look in your old tread in SimHQ, I figure how "BBC" button safety lock work, you can implement this in your grip, and adding a button associated, make the safety lock on stick turn on/of the one in game. ;) http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/4316212/Re:_Spitfire_Spade_Grip#Post4316212 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krupi Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 (edited) Hey Chaps, This bug has returned! Unfortunately my pictures are long gone, I still have the ones used to show the error I just need to dig them up. Here is one showing the stick currently the column is rotating around the mid point Elevator Connecting Rod attachment rather than around the base of the column.

Krupi Posted August 5, 2020 Author Share Posted August 5, 2020 Yes, so the red arrow shows the rotation of the column on the structure, whilst the blue arrow shows how the input back and forth of the column movement on the attached rod. The blue arrow shouldn't show a rotation really, more of a straight arrow Windows 10 Pro | ASUS RANGER VIII | i5 6600K @ 4.6GHz| MSI RTX 2060 SUPER | 32GB RAM | Corsair H100i | Corsair Carbide 540 | HP Reverb G2 | MFG crosswind Pedals | Custom Spitfire Cockpit Project IX Cockpit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
