Saitek Cyborg EVO programming...

I'm sure I'm not the first guy to ask this one, but I just joined at 4:30am today (after Warbirds frustrated me for the last time!), so I'm the newbe here.

After some goofin' round, I figured out most of the control settings. Can't seem to get the bomb drop task into the right button. If you're familiar with the Saitek Cyborg EVO, heres my set up as it was on Warbirds, (would like to make it similar on AHII if possible):

1 - (Trigger) Primary weapons

2 - Fire secondary weapon (This used to drop my bombs, fire rockets etc.)

3 - Gun camera on.

4 - Secondary weapon select.

5 - WEP. (extra speed boost)

6 - Map.

(The 3 buttons on left side of the base);

F2 - flaps down, F1 - flaps up, > - look up.

(The 3 buttons right of base);

< - gun camera off, F3 - auto climb, F4 - auto level.

So far I've got primary and secondary weapons fire where they need to be, as well as flaps up and down, throttle, and view up.

Can't select 2nd-ary weapon and fire it. Is there a map? Is there a WEP? And is there auto climb and level?

So far, I like AHII. You don't blackout, redout, and stall with every little move of the stick!!!

Hi whiznr, welcome.

The map is usually refered to as "Clipboard" or "Clipboard map", WEP is WEP, auto-climb is ALT-X by default, and level is X.  
You can also set the autopilot to hold an angle relative to the horizon, with Shift-X.

In the stick mappings, the map is refered to as "Clipboard Minimize/Maximize ", in the "Global" category.
Secondary weapon cycle is "Weapon select secondary" also in Global.
WEP is in "Flight", near the bottom of the list.
Auto-climb and Level are also in "Flight", as "Autopilot Speed", and "Autopilot level", respectively.

I don't know what you mean by "bomb drop task".  Is it a script of some kind?
You can specify the number of salvoes and their delay with dot commands, which you just type into the radio, preceded by a "dot", as the name implies:
.salvo
.delay

What I meant by "bomb drop task" (I couldn't think at the time, sorry .  ), was I could select secondary weapons but couldn't drop them, or fire rockets.

That's "Fire secondary" or something like that, as you've probably found.

[whiznr]

Yeah, I still can't get it to function from the stick. Haven't found WEP yet either. I just need to spend some time with the program, eventually I'll figure it out.

Ahhhhh!!!! Got it to work!! Now if I can just figure out how to better read the map, and use the audio radio.....

while your in hanger selecting plane, you have to select: to  loadout type and number  bombs and rockets .....

I think what he was missing was the backspace to cycle secondary weapons.
