since we've got the rudder back to control GVs, you may want to move the GV speed controls off the keyboard and onto the throttle too.
This is easily done if you use the SST software and set up some bands on the throttle, in the same way as people have set it up for WEP and Engine Start/Stop for aircraft:
LHS side is for aircraft - the bottom indent on the throttle is the
Engine Off position, the top indent engages
WEP, and the bit in between is for normal throttle usage. The only thing you have to do is calibrate the throttle axis in AH to
only use the throttle travel between the indents (Mace did a detailed post explaining this).
RHS is for GVs - the middle band is
Steady Speed (effectively a big deadband), move it forward and you go
Faster, forward all the way to the top indent and you will stay at
Full Speed. move it back and you go
Slower, all the way back to the bottom indent is the
Engine Off position. no calibration required here because they are all button presses.
Here is a simple SST profile so you can play around with it (right-click and Save Link As ...):
http://www.lumbergh.aquiss.com/ah/ah_stuff/Aces_High_simple.pr0This is pretty basic, the only things set up in SST are the throttle bands and the bail macro, everything else is set up in AH. The pinkie switch toggles between the Aircraft and Vehicle modes, so in AH you have to assign
8 to Mode 1 (Aircraft and Default) and
R to Mode 2 (Vehicles and Boats) for this profile to work.
