      no, it should work. I use shifted buttons of the throttle for idle detent for example.

        But are you using the fssb r3 directly to the pc or have installed the thrustmaster pcb from the warthog to the fssb r3?

          I have a Cougar with RS FSSB1 on the Cougar PCB. But if you have issues with throttle via TUBSA, what FCC you have doesn’t matter. TUSBA makes the throttle a separate HID device. So you just need to know which button number BMS sees for the switch you wish to use in shifted function.
          Also note that by default BMS sets shifted layers to start with a 256 number offset, but if you have more devices, it can happen that those 256 etc numbers are still used by Windows for your regular HID devices so you need to increase the offset in BMS config so that the offset starts with a number out of the regular HID range.

            Thanks I have the fssb the tusba the rudder pedals and thats it. When I presa the shift un the stick it se es correctly new numbers i.e. 68 69 etc but un the throttle it just shows the same dx number shifted or not. Should I look the key file?

              I have the Cougar, Tusba & rusba.
              Note that in BMS it will never show the shifted number. It will only work once you are inside the pit.
              So take my example for reference. I have pinkyshift + uncage (push range button on throttle) for idle detent. When I push the uncage in BMS setup page, it shows 140.
              So in my keyfile it uses SimToggleMissileCage 139 8 -2 0 0x0 0. See it’s 139 and not 140 because nr 1 in Windows is nr 0 in BMS logic.
              When I want to set the idle detent on the shifted layer, I add 256. So 139+256=395. SimThrottleIdleDetent 395 8 -2 0 0x0 0
              Also, don’t forget to set the pinky shift in both normal and shifted number! In my case SimHotasPinkyShift 34 -1 -2 0 0x0 0 SimHotasPinkyShift 290 -1 -2 0 0x0 0

                I will try that. However in my stick setup page in game Isee the dx button numbers and If I press the pinky I see the sam numbers +32 and that wont happen with the throttle buttons.

                  weird, normally BMS doesn’t show the shifted layers. And +32 is weird too.
                  Check your “falcon bms.cfg” file inside the User/Config folder and look for the line set g_nHotasPinkyShiftMagnitude 256, it should say 256 by default.

                    I am trying to use the key editor excel file that comes with bms, I select in the DX page threustmaster combos warthog joystick and TUSBA TQS. The joystick lets me choose two layers but the TUSBA only one (the 3rd is yellow). WHy I am not able to assign a 4th shifted layer for the TUSBA?

                      @indy2000:

                      you are going for a warthog and r3??

                      why not get a used cougar, then r2?

                      I never got why the R3 is for Warthog only. At least in the Standalone version you just exchange the grip and thats it. Shouldn’t matter if its a cougar grip.

                        It works perfectly with cougar stick. You’ll just lose the CMS push function.
                        There are two ways of using FSSB3: with Warthog PCB or with Realsimulator one that is included. If you don’t have the Warthog you won’t be able to select its PCB but it’ll work perfectly with the other.
                        BTW, I don’t own it. It’s a friend of mine.
                        Cheers
