Thanks eagler. I finally figured out the problem with the SST software - my slider seems to be the hangup. As long as I don't program that, I'm fine. I also figured that, when mapping on SST, I needed to "uncheck" the load mode default in AH. That lets me use the SST modes, which are now working fine, and the keyboard works as well. I haven't yet figured the pinkie switch out, or the rotaries, but I'm getting more and more buttons to work the game the way I want. I know the rotaries are really for trim, or the rpms, or or or, lol. I may try to map the rpms on them since I generally use combat trim. Experimenting is half the fun.
