I figured out. Go to the CONTROL and select the aircraft module you want to reprogram. Clear the categories of default or whatever that is there. On each of the control category e.g. keyboard, controller-xbox, x56left or right (right click) and choose "load profile" Select the folder where the new control profile is. Double click on the folder. There you'll see the .lua files and choose or select the correct controller for your module. And save it to a new .lua file.

My controller is an HOTAS X-56 type. I just created the controller profile for the KA50 module. How do I replace the KA50 III default profile with the one I just created for the KA50 without reinventing the wheel?

Thanks

The chopper comes with co-pilot/pilot/gunner variants. I now have my flight controllers set for "pilot" profile. Is there a quick way to copy this profile (pilot) to other "co-pilot" or "gunner" variant without reinventing the wheel with the exception of a few control specifics for each different variant? For example I wat to retain all the existing settings for "pilot" profile to the new "gunner" profile and then start adding the new settings for "gunner" control specific and save it to a new "gunner" profile.

I am currently using Steam version of DCS World. Is there a reason why I should use an independent verion of DCS or DCS Openbeta? I do use a lot of free mod planes currently stored under my (Steam) Openbeta folder. And I currently do not have any DCS or DCS Openbeta (non-Steam) account installed.

I am new to this sim. I've previously installed several (free) mods into my DCS Openbeta folder. I am a bit confused as to where the coremodes and mods folder go where?

That's exactly what screwed me over. Either uncheck the game avionics mode or click on the sim tab. Thanks

I selectively bound the control in sim mode when I first purchased the module. Like I said in the training missions the controls work like it should but not the mission mode (only the basic controls that work). That's why I am confused. Maybe I have to rebind the control all over again.

when I use training mode, my flight controller seems to work fine. Other than that, say when I fly missions. The only controls that work on j/s is just the basic pitch/roll and some basic camera views and that's just about it. When I went into the control tab I exclusively selected the xxx.diff.lua that I used for training but it did not do anything. I am at a loss!!! My other modules seems to work fine. I

Other than flight controller settig differences. What is the difference between game vs sim mean in terms of the flight dynamic?

gptcha.Thanks

I programm or bind my joy stick controller for each type of aircraft separately e.g. ov10.diff.lua, f18c.diff.lua etc. and all these flight controller profiles are stored in my InputUsersProfile folder and I do save a back up for all these files in another place. And let say when I flew the ov10 today I would load the ov10.diff.lua prior to take her to the air or ground. Somehow some of the keys I bound for certain functions are no longer there and yet the file seems to look intact in Windows environment which forced me to re-bind these keys again. This happens to me a lot when I added a new module or aircraft to the sim. I am very careful on how I load the correct .diff.lua profile for the correct aircraft in which I'm going to fly. What is wrong with what I'm doing here? Please help.

Fairly new to the DCS sim itself. In DCS World. What's the difference between -game and -sim as far as flight controller profiles are concerned and let say if I do want just to play -game only. Can I use the same flight controller profile for both modes?

This is my new j/s from TB and I have found no function in the DCS Control section to bind my H2 (HAT2) button. All other buttons were bindable. Hint: for MSFS sim the H2 is the free look function (360 view panning). DCS does not recognize this button at all. I asked TB support about it who said it's a DCS issue since the key works fine with both MSFS and x-plane working fine. I am also a msfs2020 simmer and I can attest that the H2 work fine as a freelook function.

I cannot find a function for the H2 (Hat2 or free look) in DCS controller. Were you able to bind the H2 button for that function? BTW. The H2 in MSFS2020 is a free look at 360degree panning. I asked TB support and they were clueless.
