@Caster what version of AL?

I’m not sure if even the latest supports the throttle-axis-reverse setting of 4.36.

@white_fang Sorry White Fang i took it apart the toggle switches I will be using on another project.

Just as a heads-up, 4.36 now allows for inversion of throttle axis 🙂

@hey-eng Great to hear, cheers

<p>@Snakexy <br />If you want to remove DX mapping for one button just open your DX key file and remove the button function you programmed or was programmed for you.<br /></p>

@bayonet I haven’t ventured into RSMapper just yet, although those key sequences look very nice. I was asking for a friend at the time 🙂

Select your Controller from the list Click Advanced and run through each tab to set desired throttle and other analog control axes Verify your desired keyfile is loaded and set above - click Apply / OK

I have the Alpha Grip on the WarBRD base and use the standard BMS DX mapping system. No problem at all. No need for any other launcher as BMS can “see” all 32 buttons and switches.

Bayonet.

@jayb Thank you jayb!
I guessed it and will Gremling give a try.

I too am using the stock center cam and springs with a WH grip (identical to the F16 one, iirc) and a 7cm extension and find it very comfortable. It is very light to the touch, maybe one day I’ll try it without the extension, but it is really nice to have if you also fly helos in between…

Another option (my current setup), if you fly other sims besides BMS, to the minimum €730 VirPil Hotas with the F-18 grip. If you want the F-16 grip you can get the Virpil WarBrd stick base (€190), then a TM Warthog Throttle (€240). and the TM f16 stick (€160) for a total of €590 here. You set the PID/VID of the JStick to match the original TM Warthog and your system and the TARGET software see it as a standard Warthog. Then you simply run the 128 DX TARGET profile (it only targets the throttle) and every switch\hat\button position is seen as a DX press. Unfortunately BMS does not currently see DX33-128 so no matter what the solution you would need to use Oak’s suggestion of VJoy\Joystick Gremlin to create multiple 32DX devices for BMS, or whatever VirPil’s solution is. For BMS I simply disable the TARGET profile and Alt Launcher has all my switches set for press\release so it is not an issue. The cost is only slightly more than a stock Warthog HOTAS and the VirPil stick base is exponentially better… and if you want sell the OEM Warthog stick base over on the Cougar forum to save another €50.

Edit: Sorry Bayonet, I see you have already purchased your gear!

Anyone here using the VPC ACE Flight Pedals? I ask because I need the operating area dimensions necessary since I use a Next Level Racing stand\frame for my flight and racing sims and there is only a 49cm space between uprights. I wrote VirPil but figured I would ask… the CH Pro Pedals I use now are tiny compared to some I have seen.

Never mind, got the diagrams from Virpil and they are 53.6cm wide… NG

I do the same here. I use joystick gremlin and the alternate launcher to bind. This allows me to use the flaps lever as a gear handle for example, which I find pretty satisfying to pull into place as I take off. 🙂

You also may want to take a look at Alternative Launcher, you can Invert/Set Deadzone/Set Saturation all in the Axis Assignment area… great piece of work, makes button assignment a breeze also…

Double click on the desired axis and check inversion
