CH Hotas assignments
« on: August 17, 2012, 07:28:35 AM »
I'm using a CH Fighterstick, throttle and peds. It dawned on me that I'm using about 50% of the possible assignments  between the stick and throttle so I'm wondering how you guys have them set-up.

As for the 8 way hat, all of my views are looking forward (front right, right, rear right, rear....etc) The 12 view is look fwd up. The pinkie is set to modify all views to the up position.

Lose sight, lose fight. I lose a lotta fights  :furious Any suggestion for different view settings?

Thanky!

I'm not thrilled with my Logitech. Where is the absolute best price for the 3 CH products? If I get them I would sure be interested in the Hotas assignments as well. I lose a lot of fights too ..

I bought my gear at Provantage.com It was the best deal at the time, though you might check Amazon as well.

Before TrackIR, I had the views setup the same way.  I also have a bunch of other things too.  Radio channels, trim, flaps, check 6, gear, WEP, voice, view zoom, map zoom, etc.  I also have 3 different configs, selected by the mini-mouse button.  One for fighter/attack, one for bombers, and one for GVs.  The bomber one switches between gunners, moves to bombardier, does calibration.  There's still empty buttons, but I've run out of things to put on them.

This is how mine is set. Some buttons are duplicate because I found it easier to hit them is some maneuvers while in others it was easier with a different button. Might be because I'm a lefty that does most things righty.

I only fly P38s. While the throttle arrangement may seem strange in the way that I've set up Engine 1, Both Engines, Engine 2 & WEP, it works for me.
Poor man's dual throttle.    :old:
