*edit* TL:DR - I R Noob. I was panicked noob. I looked at massive amount of ingame controls and froze like a deer. Went to the forums.. still felt lost. For hours I sat wondering "what does this do?" Then people politely suggested "Hey.. training missions are good. Read the manual.." Now I am eager noob making progress in setting up my x52 pro for A-10C.
I'm using SST Profile editor, in windows 10 (7.0.47 or whatever) making sure the function names are short, with like 3 or 4 in game binds. Having used CCcleaner, the 7.047 saitek drivers and profilng software seem to be working well for me. Maybe when I get it all sorted out I'll upload my profile for critique and reference.. not that it will be better than anyone elses.
I should have known there was a extensive A-10C manual with a perfect picture of the genuine A-10C hotas, (F15 throttle, f16 stick), and I've grown patient and learned to set up my controls in SST during training. The people in this thread helped me get a better perspective. BTW - 1.5 looks great. I couldn't hear my engines at first but a directx reinstall solved it.
Thanks everybody for making me realize what a noob I really am and helping me get over what kept me from playing. I'm sorry about the brain fart regarding the importance of a manual, especially for a flight sim. Turns out the specifics I desired were in there all along.
