Title: What I need
Post by: decoy on March 17, 2022, 07:52:12 PM

Is a way to set my joystick/controller on one setting for flight and on another setting for gvs.  I know it can be done, I just don't know how to do it.

What I have is this: 

https://www.amazon.com/Thrustmaster-Flight-T-Flight-Serie-Windows-x/dp/B09DH7MXYW/ref=sr_1_8?crid=12POCSLGY2U8L&keywords=thrustmaster+flight+controller&qid=1647564690&sprefix=thrustmaster+flight+controller%2Caps%2C95&sr=8-8

Any help?

There are 4 modes in the clipboard controller setup. Mode 1 is default. Mode 2 is vehicles. Copy mode 1 to mode 2 then change whatever else in mode 2 you want to change for vehicles.

Thanks.  I'll give that a shot.

Once setup be sure to switch to mode 2 when in a gv either by programming a button for it or turn on the "auto switch" feature.

Got that.  I was able to copy stick 1 to stick 2 and set it so that the game picks my stick based on the ride.  Also got my ptt button for the vox channel configured, and the button I use to toggle primary and secondary weapons.

No, if we could just do something about the dang trees.

It's a real pain on takeoff, too.

There is a tree at the end of the dirt strip at the small air bases, it is part of the base and can not be removed, but will get me every time almost in a fully loaded Jug lol.
