Title: CH Pro Throttle Ministick
Post by: Saxman on December 22, 2005, 02:18:06 AM

Has anyone with the CH Pro Throttle gotten the ministick to work as a free look? AH recognizes the axis, and I ASSUME that the view pitch/yaw means head motion, but when I map the axis of the ministick there's nothing happening in game. Anyone have an idea about that?

Here's a link to the forum post:

You need to switch to pan mode to enable it when in flight.

I have but it's not the fastest rabbit in the patch for looking around.

I think if you want to be looking around, get a TrackIR or just map the left-right-back-forward into one of the throttle hats - that's what I did.

In Film viewer it's F8, it should be the same in game.

Snap views are nice, but sometimes being able to pan around in the cockpit is more useful (like those annoying times when a guy is at the borderline between views). And yeah, I already have my stick's hat set to views.

If the guys in a borderline between snap vews, ya need to adjust em so that you can never lose sight.

Lose sight, lose the fight.

I use the ministick as the mouse to get it out of the cockpit when in flight so its not distracting and the views I put on the hats on the throttle.
