This upgrade kit will soon be available in Europe as well. http://forum.vkb-sim.pro/viewtopic.php?p=37628#p37628

SetKeyDelay have no influence on SendInput. If you use Send without a predefined SetKeyDelay then I think the default delay is used : Apparently it is enough to make your keys combinaisons work reliably :thumbup:

Try Send instead of SendInput. It is a bit slower but more reliable. Edit to add : With SetKeyDelay you can easily tune the delay and press duration. https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/SetKeyDelay.htm

This is explained in both Target manual. http://ts.thrustmaster.com/download/accessories/pc/hotas/software/TARGET/TARGET_User_Manual_ENG.pdf http://ts.thrustmaster.com/download/accessories/pc/hotas/software/TARGET/TARGET_Script_Editor_Basics_v1.5_ENG.pdf If this is the ONLY thing you want to do within Target, then I rather advise to use a simpler solution (which does not hide the controller) like JoyToKey which will let you remap axes to keyboard. Or Joystick Gremlin which allow us to remap to Vjoy and/or Keyboard and/or mouse and/or Text To Speech... This one is better than Target IMO, at least if you use Target GUI version. "Problem" with Target is that it hide the physical controller while combining it into a virtual controller and so we have to remap everything to the virtual controller. It isn't automatic.

The VKB Gladiator is the "cheap" option from VKB. It doesn't use cam profile and so can't really be customised, also we can not mount other grip and the gimbal can't support extention. We can upgrade the gimbal to allow SCG Kosmosima grip family to be mounted on it. Other VKB base such as VKB Gladiator PRO and Gunfighter uses cam profile and allow to mount different grip. The Gunfighter is designed to be used with extention and so its base is sturdier and we can mount 2 springs per axes. We can also fine tune friction on each axes individually thanks to its Dry Clutch system. All Virpil base uses cam profile and indeed everything is sold separately at Virpil. And TM Warthog and Hornet Grip are compatible with Virpil bases. The Gunfighter gimbal is way more customisable, allow the mounting of different grip, including Warthog with an adapter. And also Hornet with the same adapter + a bit of filing at the base of the Hornet grip. And it work both on desktop and with extension.

Indeed no axis separation on the X56, nor Warthog as you see here. Nowadays we should look at VKB and Virpil gimbal. Cheapest stick with axis separation to my knowledge is the VKB Gladiator.

I see. In this case it is a bit annoying to have to remap the whole throttle, when we only want to change a few things. For this reasons I advise you to have a look at Joystick Gremlin. The config you do in Gremlin come "on top" of the "original" controller. The original controller isn't hidden after the execution of a gremlin profile. Note that joystick Gremlin can also be used on top of a Target script. I do it for exemple when I want my Warthog throttle which I run through target script editor, to be able to modify the behavior of some button on my VKB Gunfighter. Similarily to what we do in Target with IO UMD layer/shift.

Uhm you should be able to do that in the control option, axes tab. Automatic recognition might not work, if so use the drop down menu to manually select the axis.

Uhm.. So in fact, if I understand correctly you don't need to run a script at all to do what you want. Cause the top hat is mapped as 8 way by default (without running script) already.

Uhm my script increase the press duration on the shifted event. So you'll want to apply the same things to the non shifted event. So something like this : DOWN+'1', D(333),UP+'1' Full line should be : MapKeyIO(&Throttle, BSF, CHAIN(DOWN+R_ALT, D(30), DOWN+'i', D(333),UP+'i', D(30), UP+R_ALT), CHAIN(DOWN+'1', D(333),UP+'1')); Note, some of the front button like the one on the UFC panel require quite a "long" press to activate. A very short mouse clic won't work in my case. I imagine you encounter the same thing on the A/A and A/G button. I don't know, maybe that is a safety IRL?

With Target, you map stuff to your controller, THEN you map your controller to the game. Same with Gremlin or any other programming software. If you don't map your Hat in Target, then you won't be able to map them in the game.

What he said :thumbup: The TWCS is also quite low profile and light. If you go with the TWCS be ready to grease it as the default grease it "bad". Mine was really sticky, greased it with Nyogel 767A. Now it is really nice. And no, the throttle friction screw doesn't solve the problem. More info and tuto here (Really easy compared to the Warthog stick greasing) : https://support.newgatesimms.com/flight-simulator-joystick-and-throttle-damping-case-study/

I guess the press duration is too short. I would try to increase it thanks to a macro (chain) :

I don't think we can map the diagonal manually. Can't you bind the diagonal direction of a 8 way hat to the Jester thing directly in DCS? IRRC we can for view, I guess they designed that menu to work with 8 way hat.

VKB Gladiator MKII with upgrade kit and SCG grip.

All you have to do is map 4 positions. The software will handle the diagonal. And make sure to select Hold as type. Note that you must remap almost all the other button as the default mapping isn't complete. According to target.tmh only "simple" button are remapped by default : int TWCSThrottleMap[] = {TBTN1, DX1, TBTN2, DX2, TBTN3, DX3, TBTN4, DX4, TBTN5, DX5};

You shouldn't be able to map in the TWCS category, as the device should be hidden when you run the script. The fact it doesn't mean you have a problem. Apparently it can be due to windows store, see here. In my experience it also happen when one install the target software while Target compatible device are connected to the PC, please see my post here on reddit. PS : Once that problem will be solved* please share your script so we can check it.

Plz post your script so we can check it.

All the functionnality you describe can be done within Joystick Gremlin. All within a UI, not even needed to script. (Although possible in Python). PS : It's free.

It have been cancelled.

It doesn't respond anymore? Or is there so much jitter/spike/noise it is barely usable? Cause if the problem is sensor "noise" you could try to clean it and/or use a software with a noise filter. Such as Joystick Curve. Edit : I can't think of any throttle that use contactless sensor even for their secondary axes. Unfortunately.. Edit : Winwing Throttle use hall effect sensor for its antenna elevation spring centered wheel.

I changed mine a few montch ago, they sent me this manual. https://www.dropbox.com/s/vbpqfnzsaa7txrr/HW_Friction%20pads.pdf?dl=0
