DMS and TMS commands?

F = ma.

200lb ? Maybe stop eating all that striped candy.
F = ma.
Still doesn’t work. Except, maybe, for some BMS desk pilots …. who ate all the striped candy.

OK, you’d have to pull 17.5G on a 200 lb male with 5.7% total arm mass to make the arm weigh 200 lb. 9G on a 11.4lb arm is 102.6 lb. Hyperbole in detail but the result is the same, you can’t play the castanets with the same vigor while yankin’ and bankin’ as not. The profile has a fuel dump key, a capability drawn squarely from the hindquarters. “AG Cycle” is a deprecated fictional keypress leftover from Falcon 4.0 1.08 days that should be taken out behind the barn and shot. I’ve tech helped people who were having avionics bugs and it turned out they were using these screwy ancient backdoor commands wasting my time.

… wasting my time.
At least you were inclined enough to extend your time for the wasting. As a result self-induced avionics discrepancies were fixed. Although the only way I know around this if there was a controlled method of available keystrokes.

I have seen no HOTAS that you can map every button or switch to. The important stuff for combat you should have mapped to your HOTAS. Everything else is mouse switch in the pit (except for nose wheel steering). The steering “enable” on the ground is the only thing I use the keyboard for.
-
@jhook you know this button is actualy on the f-16 stick right?? just kidding…
@Frederf that is one of the reasons that fence check exists (no need to do stuff under G)
Even if the pilot has to change something he won’t do it while pulling 9.0 G… besides even in a dogfight you don’t pull 9G all the time… there is time to make changes in pit (via icp/mfd) -
I hope the devs of BMS won’t take out the simplistic “unrealistic” controls…I need them! That A/G, A/A cycle is a must!
-
long press of the NWS A/R DISC MSL STEP button will sort the latter when in A/A mastermode, and OSB 6 will solve the former on the SMS page in the A/G mastermode.

Change AA weapons by holding the MSL STEP button (which also control Nosewheel steering, AR door Disconnect).
Change AG weapons via MFD.
These callbacks ARE unrealistic and do not exist in the real jet. Pilots change weapons the way Blu3wolf & I are describing.
