Good news. I removed everything related to Falcon and reinstalled. The problem has been fixed. Rudder is working. I didn’t need to configure the control stick under setup. BMS just recognized it and responded.
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for all the information. Yes, it’s a little overwhelming but I’m moving ahead step by step. By the way, I’m aware that the attachment is FCR, I simply wanted to illustrate the icon I’m looking for in order to select & lock my targets with.
I’ve copied the list you provided:
Cursor enable – Toggles between POS and HAS modes (WPN page needs to be SOI).
• Cursors: Move captain bars in HAS/HAD display.
• TMS Up – Handoff the threat in HAS/HAD.
• TMS Up LONG - POS/HAD: cycles HARM Sub Modes
• TMS down – Deselects the currently selected threat in HAS/HAD.
• TMS Right
So, if I understand you correctly, the TMS option is what selects the various SAM targets on the MFD? If that is the case then I’m going to program them into my control stick. Does anybody have any idea where in the Setup > Keyfile will I find the TMS options? That is a very long list.
Thank you.

I gave AL a try and sadly it did nothing. Actually, that isn’t quite correct. Under setup in BMS, my throttle was linked to my control slider (which worked). With AL, the throttle was suddenly linked to what should be my rudder control. When I twisted my control stick the throttle responded the way the rudder should. As for the rudder itself, it remains inoperative.
I’m uninstalling everything tomorrow and trying again.

I really appreciate your help and time. I don’t want to start changing the codes simply because that can just create more problems from my end and in no way am I suggesting you are wrong. I’m going to uninstall BMS and reinstall it all over again.
Before I take that step I simply want to ask if installing 4.35 is all I need or do I also need to install 4. 33 as well?
It should be noted that I purchased my new PC about 2 months ago with Win 10 on it. The previous one had Win 8.1 and the controller worked flawlessly with it. I have no idea what happened.

I’m going to try the AL shortly. I hope this fixes the problem
Thanks again.
Hi.
The controller I’m using is:
Sector 7 3 axis controller with 12 buttons and a slider.
My controller does appear in the Windows and ALL features work as they should. The ONLY feature that does not work in BMS setup is the rudder control (rotating my controller left & right).
All drivers are installed for the controller.
I did check the BMS config dir. for “DeviceSorting” and the “read only” is NOT set to on.
I have noticed something but I doubt it could be a problem and that is, I have BMS 4.35 installed over top of 4.33. Would that be an issue?
Hi.
Before I start fiddling with “Alternative Launcher”, can you please brief me on what it does? Also, where do I find it?
@airtex2019
I’m just using a generic controller that worked flawlessly the last time I had BMS running.
@persius
I noticed this in my setup. My trigger is linked to the rudder. Do you know how I can change this setting?
The “input” button 1 = trigger on my control stick.
In the menu I would like to change the , & . to recognize my stick rotation. Any idea how to do this?
As a final note, the two keys , & . do NOTHING when I press them. No rudder movement.

Hi.
In the Win calibration screen it does work (z rotation). All my control features work the way they should except when in BMS setup.
The blue bar IS visible but it does not react when I rotate the controller.
I’m still working on it but I really can’t do more than I have already done.
Hi airtex
Yes, I’ve tried all the options available in that menu and none of them work. This is why I’m lost as to why everything else is working except this option.
