Throttle Control

[trax1]

I got a question about adjusting the throttle, I only have the use of my left arm and so to adjust my throttle atm I have to let go of my stick to do it, but I participate in the AHXARL and we have a race tonight where you come down a very steep mountain and fly through a hanger, now I want to know if there's anyway to adjust my throttle with the buttons on my joystick rather then letting go of the stick to move the throttle built into it up or down?  All I'd really need it to do would be full throttle one button, and zero throttle another.

what stick is it?

what stick is it?

Cyborg Evo, but that really shouldn't matter, I just want to know if there's any way to map the throttle to a button on the stick, so for example I hit one button and get 100% throttle, and I hit another and I get 0% throttle.

There are commands for the keyboard to allow full and 0 throttle that could be mapped to joystick buttons, but you would also need to unmap the analog throttle for them to work.

The 4 throttle commands in the "Global" section of the "Options->Controls->Map Controllers" panel are:

1)  Throttle Up
2)  Throttle Down
3)  Throttle Full
4)  Throttle Zero

hi Trax1,

i think that feets also can be used to rise up or dwn aircraft throttle by means of racing pedals.
