I see FS Realistic adds some nice splash sounds when you touchdown in the water.

I got the V2 Kodiak, and it still has the digits overflow bug on the ESI500.

What happened, I sent them a fix weeks ago,, 😐

Anyone else have a problem with the water rudder handle just vibrating when launching in water and steering is minimal?

I found it very hard to steer at low speeds or even just keep it from drifting all over the place with little wind.  For example trying to maneuver around the docks on the Vancouver waterfront.  SIde note it would be nice if there was a way to simulate tying on to a dock to keep the aircraft still.

Once I got up to a reasonable taxi speed I was able to steer it ok.

Separate question, has anyone been able to assign the throttle control using FSUIPC?  None of the usual control assignments are working for me.

With the water handle vibrating and it can't be moved even with the mouse, it is impossible to taxi or fly off the water. They didn't test this apparently, and many people on their Discord channel are asking for the previous installer, because the latest version wheel version  has all kinds of issues too.   I think I may just install the previous version, and call it a lesson learned.

I fixed the water rudder problem. My Saitek Quad Throttle had an assignment for toggle water rudder, so when I put the throttle to close, the water rudder handle would vibrate. 

 

 

 

So wait.... I don't own either. If I get the float version I'm getting the same product as the original (albeit with floats) for half the price? Is that right?

Sure sounds like it… I paid full price for wheels. Still, if you want both, it’s about the same price…

Isn't it possible to use the reverse toggle for the beta range? Also how does one start on the water? Are there specific places around the world to choose from?

I started at LakeHood in Alaska, a place I flew out of irl.  However, the water was so rough in Lake Hood, like waves, that it was almost impossible to take off. Weird because that is a really small lake.

No. You only get a discount on the float version if you already own the wheeled version. If you don't own the wheeled version, you pay full price on the float version.

( I would think the discount works both ways, but don't quote me on that. )

 

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.
