    You just pull or unscrew the red/blackbits enough to expose the hole and trap bare wires in the old stereo.

    Cap I'd just like to say that I've been watching your dcs video for 2 years now and you have had a huge influence on me.
    After watching your vides for a few months I just had to get a pc of my own and get flying. I picked up a good starter pc and hotas and track ir just like yours and was happy for about a year, then I decided to upgrade with new motherboard to accommodate an m.2 for fast loading. Went from 8 to 32gb of ram. Upgraded my graphics card to a Zotac 2060 and went from a Ryzen 3 3200 to a 5 5900x and upgraded psu too.
    Also got a Oculus vr to fly with and its amazing.
    But gaming isn't my first love, I race bikes which is very expensive and I'm a firefighter here in the UK so I don't get alit of time to fly, usually 9 or pm onwards.
    I watch all of your vides every night before going to sleep.
    So I'd just like to say a massive thank you. Please keep making all your cool videos. And I'd loveto fly with u somewhen.

    Hey Cap, I think you just need some speaker wires, and you strip the plastic off the ends, put them through the holes in the connectors in the amp, and the same thing with the speakers. One speaker wire actually has two copper wires, and you need to connect the red connector on the speaker to the red connector on the amp, and the same thing with the black. And you should be good to go.

      @@Studio23Media Probably the lowest entry point with the highest immersion level is getting a Quest 2 and VTOL VR. Runs on a 970. Any CPU back to probably the first Core i series could do it, certainly the 2nd gen would be enough. With DCS, you need to get flight controls and it won't take you long to realize that it's better to have actual pedals and separate stick and throttles which will be quite a few hundred bucks already. So yeah, if you don't have anything yet, it'll easily be 2-3 grand in total.

    Those connectors are for bare wire. You can tin the copper with a soldering iron to keep it from oxidizing too much if you like, but its more or less just a bare wire connector. Strip the ends of your speaker cable, twist the copper wires to keep it tidy, tin if you like, the red/black piece will either be spring loaded or you unscrew it a bit, insert wire, tighten back down. That's it.

    Nice Systems... Loads of Money on them. Need CPU and GPU prices to fall a little for me to get a rig built. I have a ibuypower system that my Nephew spent 1200 dollars on, and it's a joke. Motherboard isn't upgrade-able, GPU is to small to even think of running DCS on. My Laptop I got from School can run DCS, but without a joy stick and throttles pointless to try. Seeings how I have mostly systems that have been given to me because they are old. I can still do my Internet Radio Show on. Hobby I had since I was 2000. Sad part is that CD's don't keep their value, and thanks to Spotify, CD's are almost a thing of the past. I do have some Sim Flying time... Xbox's Ace Combat 6, I finished the game. Twice.. Played Microsofts F-22 Raptor game back in the 90's. But DCS is a whole new ball game. I do enjoy watching GR's videos. Mission planning... Now if DCS could just do what they did with the Tomcat, and make other aircraft have multiple crews.. And they would be able to have B-52's, F-111's, B-1B's. And of course B-17 and Lancaster's for WWII aircraft... multi-crew... I don't know what that would take to make that happen... I better stop, I'm thinking about it to much... Cheers

    My gosh how does Cap have the weakest setup. The voice of the operation, the voice reason and British excellence, with none of the American consumerism. I wish I could be comfortable with what I have instead of the new new. Cheers mate. PS boys; buy Cap a new setup.

    Skil has a perfect looking setup. Wish we had seen the chair. Looked like TeaCypher had an actual cockpit chair maybe?

    • @RoamingAdhocrat
      @RoamingAdhocrat ปีที่แล้ว +1

      From what I could tell, everyone's using wheeled, swivelling desk chair for flight sims except TeaCipher. Which is a bit surprising. IMO the biggest single improvement you can make to desktop flight simming is to get rid of the desk and the swivel chair.
      I'm 2/3rds of the way there: I use an Ikea armchair, monitor on a mount that can lower it into my eyeline, HOTAS resting on armrest-height furniture next to the chair. This is already much better than flying in a desk chair - I can use the joystick and headtracker much more comfortably and precisely. The next step will be to fabricate some mounts so I can rigidly attach the HOTAS to the chair.

    I've complained in the past about the cost of getting into DCS... This pretty much sums it up. Monster gaming PC's and many... many dollars in peripherals.
    And then you still got to learn to fly the damn things... LOL

      Cheaper than maintaining and operating real ones.
      I finally bit the bullet on a hotas/throttle/pedals. Already had the pc thatd basically be collecting dust without racing and flight sims. The gaming industry is in the shitter, in my opinion.
      You dont need to buy everything at once, although youll always want to. You can get away with a cheap hotas and xbox controller for all of the necessary controls. Ive been flying with one hand that bounces between the numpad on my keyboard for looking around and the throttle. Head tracker on order and vr is pointless if you arent already familiar with controls. My pedals havent come in so i use an xbox controller for rudder.
      Just like any hobby, its as cheap or expensive as you want to make it. $1600usd ibuypower pc with a 16gb ram upgrade will run the crap out of dcs. Not cheap but its no monster gaming rig either.

      Also, usually there's a +20db mic boost option somewhere in Windows for most audio chips. It's bascially mandatory to flick it on.

      That's just what I was gonna say,. 👍🏼 But I'm so glad that I read this far into the comments, before I posted the same and then looked like a copy-twat! 🫢
      However, I've literally just thought 🤔 that there's a second possible meaning to his question... "What if... he was really asking about the 'actual' connectors on the Amp?". Because, he didn't really make that bit clear! 😕😁
      In addition, I've also just noticed the date that the OP put this vid up... (TWO YEARS AGO!).. 😲🤯
      So he's quite probably been listening to Tay-Tay, The Wiggles or something really terrible for the last 21 months... so... you were probably about 16 months too late, an' I was 5 months after you... 🤣🤣🤣
