          Check the docs folder in your install, you can find keyboard layouts and a lot of other must read documents in there.

            Go to Setup > Controllers > Advanced and scroll down to Flight Stick (it’s about 60% of the way down in the Default map) and you will see most of the targeting and fire keys/buttons/commands there. You are particularly looking for:

            STICK: WEAPON RELEASE (Pickle) [For dropping bombs and firing missiles.]
            STICK: FIRST TRIGGER DETENT [Fires the laser.]
            STICK: SECOND TRIGGER DETENT [Guns, guns, guns!]

            The other big – used all the time – grouping is higher up in TQS section. Give that a study.

                Welcome to BMS Hzafar!

                What do you mean by a β€˜normal one’?

                    You first need to SOI the TGP with DMS DOWN. Do so by pressing Ctrl+ End. To zoom in press Alt+ F4. Zoom out with Alt+ F3. Lock on with TMS UP which is Shift + Home.

                    I suggest learning the keyfiles by heart. As our fellow simers/simmers said, you can find the layout in the docs folder of your bms installation or right here:
