Poor old Psycho!!

What I want is less serious. Can anyone tell me how to make the rotaries on the Cougar work the trim tabs "incrementally". I have them mapped to the appropriate keys for trim on AH but its either on or off. I want to be able to turn the rotaries as if they were real trim rotaries and not just button presses. I know you can set them in Foxy as trim, but that won't create trim as in AH (moving the trim indicators) it will simply change the stick a bit.

Also if I am in text buffer and the rotaries arn't centre i go mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm or kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. People think I'm mad:D

I'm pretty sure I've tried to do this in the past and failed miserably ... check the axis setup in AH - can you map trim to an analog axis? If so, just make the rotary act as a DX axis.

No I don't think you can. Trim can only be mapped to buttons. Maybe HTC should address this as the Cougar isn't the only stick with rotaries.

Thanks for the reply.

A tip for the anoying key presses set on rotaries, or buttons that stay on. Map a DX button to the function in AH. Program the cougar to use the DX button and not the key press. This avoids the anoying text buffer problem.
