How to set up MFCD in DCS A-10C with Thrustmaster Cougar MFD & Lilliput 8" USB LCD Monitor

[Fumbaga]

@Pwnzistor DCS A-10 exports the MFDs as data only. There is some 3rd party software like Helios you can use to export other bits but I have no real knowledge about it.

[Fumbaga]

@LegionCWAM Cheers mate!

[LegionCWAM]

hey wtf? that looks quite different to my case. btt: very nice gear sir !

[Pwnzistor]

Since the monitor you added is touch-screen.. Did you really need to add the cougar MFDs to use it as an MFD?

Hello, I currently have 2 Lilliput 7" screens, but when I tried to install the drivers it didn't work. I have a windows 7 64bit operating system and ive searched forever to try and find the download. Ive looked all over their site and have found nothing. Can you plz send me a link maybe, or maybe where you got it?

[Fumbaga]

@FlyHigh3344 Hi mate, its been a while but I think i just got the drivers by googling "display link drivers". i tried posting a URL but youtube wont let me. The ones on the CD didn't work for me either on win 7.

yeah setting up those MFD's real time off the game is hit and miss until you get it into the general area. Where abouts did you get the small monitor?

[Fumbaga]

@HereticExA I bought it from eBay

[HereticExA]

@Fumbaga Yeah I got mine from Amazon for like $40. Crazy gadget though, plug and play. I will have to post you a pic of my setup when I finally get it setup.

Can you run 2 of these? got me hooked now, my Thrustmasters are on order and these as well. but i want 2 MFDs. thanks for the vid, major props

[Fumbaga]

@grim4g63t Yeah most people run 2. I only wanted a centre MFD.

Many thanks for posting very helpful.

Dude, this rig is awesome, i love the way the cockpit looks like.

keep the vids coming!=D

[5150tt]

Did you set up in Warthog 1.1.0.9 or an older version?

[Fumbaga]

@5150tt This is 1.1.0.9, current version of A-10

[Deigs007]

Dammit. I just bought this CMFD setup because of this video. My wife will kill me.

[Fumbaga]

@Deigs007 :) Cool mate hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

[authommo]

Great tutorial, thanks!

[AnkhDjedSeneb]

Nice tutorial JAR. The /2 (and /3 in some profiles) are there to do division if there are multiple full-size monitors that the image has to be split over. For some reason more compicated arithmentic can't be used (eg. subtracting MFD widths from a full-sized with etc). Moa.

[wagmatt]

Don't tempt me! ;)

[Fumbaga]

@wagmatt Ha yeah to be honest I find I am still using the in game virtual cockpit MFDs mostly. The external one is good for entering MGRS and setting general prefs up at start up. Mostly I like it because it makes the cockpit look cooler :)

[JediLink25]

Man, you got the other one just sitting there! Set them up left and right, like in the real hornet pit.

[Fumbaga]

@JediLink25 he he, if DCS make F/A-18C I'll consider that. Until then 1 working MFCD is about all I can handle, plus i love my G110 keyboard too much to relegate it out of the pit just yet.

[assmotrone43]

What is the book/manual that showed you all through the f/a-18 cockpit?

[Fumbaga]

@assmotrone43

Hey mate it's called "F/A-18E/F Super Hornet in Detail & Scale (D&S, Vol. 69) by Bert Kinzey".

[assmotrone43]

@Fumbaga Thanks alot. I love your videos.
