This app is not for the faint hearted to setup and get this app and Steam's version of DOCS v1.5.8 your Export.lua file can be found under: C:\Program Files(x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Scripts. And it is this file which needs copying over to your users Saved Games an DCS script folder. I also had and issue with my Kerperksy Firewall software where I had to ally rules to my DCS.exe packages as well as UDP port 6000 Plus a security restrictions my my Android device, that I has to resolve under settings and setup my phone on my router with a STATIC IP address... However after all this, this app is the perfect companion for any DCS user who has the Heuy. As it makes playing with and landing you helicopter much easier. As you are not squinting at the screen and getting caught out by that bad-air vortex problem which is hard to eye- ball without visual look at you Air Speed(nots) and Vertical Air speed indicators......I ldo love this app.
Perfect! I often have trouble seeing the Huey dials because of my zoom settings, and now they are all on my phone, much closer to my face where I can read them! I still need to figure out where I'm going to mount my phone, but that's my problem. These dials are easier to read then the ones in game, are just as accurate, and setup is a breeze, if you're used to DCS and it's LUA system. Leon's included instructions on this site tell you everything you need to know. Follow them exactly and it should just work! Bravo Leon. Please make more, and give me a way to send you $5 bucks for your hard work.
Perfect companion app when flying the Huey. Super handy, especially when gauges get blocked or lighting is poor.
Works without any problem as it is. My only wish would be full customizability. As in selecting any gauges to show up with size selection. And I would not say no to other modules. Good job.
Works great. Additional options would be welcome, like tapping the Alt Gauge and switching between Radar or Baro. Or adjusting what shows on the display, adding/deleting instruments would be nice.
Absolutely amazing software. Now only if I could get one for the Mi-8 as well!
Great app :-) Thanks! Something every DCS:UH-1H pilot should give a try.
It really helpfully.
It's doesn't work on DCS 2.5 !!!
Thanks Leon Portman, great work bringing the UH-1H dials to the DCS / Android community
Took a bit to figure out, realised I needed to copy the Export.lua file from the DCS directory, to the saved games/script directory that I made earlier, and then paste the line into it. But after that, yeah way nicer than squinting at the UH-1h dash, or having to zoom in to see and loosing a little bit of situational awareness.
