@ Steve, I have this one (I suppose somewhere on my HD), but I like to see the TDC in my screen. However, quite interesting too. I prefer big dials because I can see what I am doing!

BTW, nice images mate!

@ Sie, correct HanSolo used this one for WAC 3.0 and 4.0. Did you see the navigation map! Same as in WAC.

ME ... I MADE IT!

As you can see, it has been made for GWX 2.1. Furthermore, the readme.txt said it is only for GWX 2.1 ... but until now everything is working perfect with GWX 3.0 ???

I think (but correct me if I am wrong), that the observation scope is quite authentic.

That's what it looks like on the outside, so the mirror can crank up to look for airplanes, but the inside eyepiece is still a circle and that's how it would look when you used it.

It still looks cool, though, and I love your binoculars with the hands holding them!

OK thanks.

I find the binoculars better then the GWX 3.0 style (not especially the hands) but you know where you are looking because of the bearing indicator. In GWX 3.0 they disabled it.

Now I get more the feeling where I am looking, in real life you would feel the direction when you would move. In my opinion this is much better.

Correct me (a usual LOL), if I am wrong.

That's all a matter of taste. I like not having the bearing marks. When I look for a ship I just do it without the binocs until I'm facing close enough, then use them and turn slowly. No trouble finding it that way.
