That is what my " \ " key shows when i remap it, as mentioned in my previous post. I have my Windows input language setup to UK English and i am using a UK layout keyboard.

Hi, I think i had the same issue a week ago when i was test flying the JF-17. The \ key does not work as the \ key. If you clear it and remap it (press the \ key again to assign it), " \ " will not show as the assigned key. It will be named something different but then if you press the " \ " key it will function properly. Try it and let me know if it worked out for you.

Thank you for the quick reply. :thumbup:

Hi, Given the opportunity to test fly the JF-17 i have noticed the following behavior with the HUD. I am using a TrackIR and when i move my head forward the hud symbology remains fixed as if it is projected behind the hud glass towards the nose of the aircraft. When the view is zoomed in with the keyboard key the hud symbology zooms in as well. The problem is that when moving my head closer to the hud with the trackir the hud symbology remains small and is still unreadable. Tested this with the F-16C and F/A-18C and the same thing happens (to a smaller degree) and the hud symbology even though is closer to the nose of the aircraft than on the hud glass, remains readable. Am i doing something wrong, missing something or is this how it is supposed to work. Thanks.

My HOTAS Cougar is still functional but the throttle has a couple of issues. I no longer have friction on the throttle movement which means that i have to keep my hand on the throttle at all times otherwise it will either move full forward or backward upon release and the speedbrake switch is problematic as to it no longer slides and it causes spiking with the IFF switch. The Cougar stick has been upgraded a few years ago to RealSimulator FSSB when one of the axis broke. I am really happy with it as it still goes on strong. Seeing this topic and the one for the RealSimulator F-16 Throttle, i would be more interested in a Thrustmaster Cougar Throttle V2 rather than a RealSimulator one, mainly due to cost. The Cougar stick upgrade to FSSB was worth it but it was a bit pricey. In addition it has been a couple of years since i started searching for an F-16 throttle replacement and i even contacted a couple of companies that i found on the web but those are mainly military grade and way too expensive for personal use, which was disappointing:( However at one time i did sent an e-mail to Thrustmaster customer service requesting that they think about releasing a new F-16 throttle as a replacement to the Cougar and if memory serves me correctly the customer service guy replied that he would forward the request to the management team. So now i just hope that since they released an F/A-18 grip for the DCS Hornet, they go ahead in the next few months and release an F-16 throttle. Just hopping and Christmas is just around the corner. :santa::santa::santa::santa:
