You can remove the button panel from the original Super Taurus and screw it into the new Taurus throttle. There are two USB cables in the old version. Notice the two screws right behind the throttle module, there are two more in the front. The throttle chassis is narrower on the original than the stand alone new version.

On second command make it wait 75ms, third command 150ms, fourth command, 250 ms Key. Delay Duration O. 0ms. 75ms (500) Rctl + O. 75ms. (500) 75ms (500) Rctl + O. 150ms. (1000) 75ms (500) Rctl+Ralt + O. 250ms. (1500) 75ms. (500) I'm not sure why you have Rctl + O twice. I would use 500 to 1000ms for my durations (parentheses). A physical button push lasts at least a second, which is 1000ms. I use Event Tester from my TARGET install to test my macros to ensure I get a press and release on the command, and that they fall in sequence as programmed. Event timer example Press - O (time) Release - O (time) Press - Rctl (time) Press - O (time) Release - O (time) Release - Rctl (time)... etc.... With the timer, I get it correct before I go back and test it in-game; it's quicker and more efficient. I just looked at the keymapping for the Wing Fold operation on the Hornet, and your macro will not work; you are doing all the operations at once. You need a three-position switch for proper operation, or you can use a two-position switch and program forward motion as Fold and the rearward motion function for Spread. You never mentioned your HOTAS setup and available buttons. You can also use the TEMPO function (long press) if you have a three-way momentary switch. Or use your mouse for the function, it's quicker and easier since you only do the operation once before and after the flight. Save your switches for repeated tasks in flight. Good luck

LOL, the File tab has New, Open, and Import. You have to name your files there, under "New". I have the names of my files in Files: DCS Jets, DCS Props, and IL2 files. I hit the DCS Props, and it takes me to the P-47, P-51, Spitfire, and Mosquito profiles in the profiles tab, and my DCS Jets file takes me to the F/A-18, F-16, Mig-15, and F-86 profiles. These are for DCS; I have one file that says IL2, and it takes me to my IL2 profile. So start in Files, Select "New," and name it IL2 or DCS Props or DCS Jets, or any naming convention you want, and then go to "Profiles." You can name separate profiles in your "Profiles" tab: DCS, P-47, P-51, Mosquito, and Spitfire. Or DCS, F-86, F/A-18, A-10C, etc. Each time you open up RS Mapper, go to Files/Open (select your file), DCS Props, DCS Jets, IL2, and then you will see it in Profiles. Easy Peasy. I also have TARGET, and I use the Event Tester program to make sure what I have programmed actually works without going back into the game. i.e. Left Shift + Y press, Left Shift + Y release.. and macro type press releases.. LShf + Y, LAlt + T Press... LAlt +T, LShf + Y release..... Good Luck

Usefull hardware / software links.
_Hoss replied to Groove's topic in PC Hardware and Related Software
I like JZTwoCents Here is free software to uninstall everything in a program you do not want on your computer anymore. Revo Uninstaller... I paid for it to support this developer, and it works like a charm. I'd like to see him do an RGB version as well. Another one to control your fans Fan Control............... -
TM warthog hotas + TM Cougar MFD + T.A.R.G.E.T. - qquestion about DX buttons
_Hoss replied to hreich's topic in Thrustmaster
In TARGET, you have two options: SCRIPT or GUI programming, both of which will combine your controllers into one device. SCRIPT is nothing but programmed dx presses (joy1_button 5). GUI programming is keyboard emulation (Shift + X). I no longer use TARGET because of my mix of controllers, WW, TM, BH, and privately developed devices. I have a TM AVA base, F/A-18, F-16 sticks, Viper Panel, and TPR pedals. A WW PTO2, and Super Taurus throttle. A BlackHog A button box, and On your 12 Master Arm panel, K51 trim box, an FFGG AH-64 keyboard. When all I had was TMWH and Crosswinds, I loved using TARGET GUI in IL2 and SCRIPT in DCS. However, I like to keep as few background applications running as possible, so I stopped using TARGET when my hodgepodge of controllers became challenging to manage. I played with Joy2Key for a bit because it saw all the controllers, but its interface made it difficult to understand which one I was actually looking at. So I migrated to RSMapper, which was a godsend for me because Joystick Gremlin uses vJoy and Hid-hide, another two applications running in the background. With RSMapper, I can see all the controllers by name and do as much with it as with TARGET SCRIPT and GUI. Single key press, single press on release, TEMPO long presses, and Sequence macros But if you only want to see one controller in your game keymapping screen, then by all means, use Joystick Gremlin, vjoy, and HIDHIDE. I still have TARGET and SimAppPro installed on my system for new driver and firmware updates, but they are not running any programs or scripts. I still use TARGETS Event Tester to see if my programming is putting out the keystrokes I have programmed; you won't see dx presses on it. I use dx (joy3_button2) direct programming in-game for the easy stuff, but I like RSMapper macros for use on buttons and momentary switches or commands when a non-momentary switch is released, on/OFF. -
I don't understand how the fighter plane that served our highest-scoring USAAF ace is not in the game. The P-38 would fit the current ETO and future PTO maps, and the P-38J or P-38L would do the job nicely. However, the current I-16 and future La-7 will be in it without any relevant period map or WWII asset packs for the Soviet Union. This is the main reason I will not purchase those two modules; for me, it's a complete waste of my money. JMTCW......

I think I joined AG-51 in 2008 or 2009, during the Pacific Fighters era, but we have been simaniac amigos since then. We love our planes to have Sea Legs and Tailhooks. I'm eagerly awaiting Combat Pilot, as I know Razor is.

Please don't listen to Razor. He's an ex-Army Egg Beater pilot, and he's crazy. Razor really wants an Avenger...... Most of the pilots hated the SB2C (Son of a Bitch Second Class). But I still want it, too.

Configuring Toe Brakes instead of Brake Lever
_Hoss replied to Major Sepp's topic in DCS: Mosquito FB VI
I have been experimenting with the TDS axis on the throttle, setting it up so it isn't overly sensitive and it works great. -
