H60MTI - I am also seeing this issue.

I am having the same issue as well.

To me, by having the actual control stick in my lap, having the "virtual" stick in front of me takes away from the realism. And, by removing the "virtual" stick, I would have an unobstructed view of the front dash which would be more realistic.

Ditto as well!!!

Since Thrustmaster has released an exact replica of the control stick with the Warthog HOTAS, an option to "hide" the on-screen control stick would be nice - no obstructed view of the lower front dash, no redundant control stick representation, less graphics/animation.

Thanks for the info. I have TIR and know what you are saying. My thinking was since I have the actual stick in my lap already, it'd be nice to have it out of the way on the screen.

Did a search but didn't find this.... I bought the TM Warthog HOTAS so I'd like to "hide" the animated control stick since it obstructs the view of other cockpit controls. I thought there was a keyboard command to do this in DCS Blackshark (but I'm not sure???). Is there such a thing in A-10C? Thanks in advance, Zak

****Sorry, just found a thread on this....please disregard**** My apologies if this has been covered in another thread but I couldn't find it... In the manual, referring to the center panel of the cockpit, it states: "Due to the position of the panel, you may need to move the cyclic out of the way or use keyboard commands to access the functions." Since I have all the cyclic functions mapped to my Saitek X52 joystick, is there a way to hide the cyclic in the cockpit view so that I can directly access the switches on the center panel that appear behind it with the mouse?

I found another thread called "Keyboard Issues", so I'm shutting this thread down.

An update to the original post: I noticed that instead of the tracking gate size being the keys "[" and "]", this functionality is mapped to the keys "]" and "\" - which is shifted over one key each to the right. Consequently, the "\" does not bring up my radio communications menu. The keys are mapped correctly in Black Shark's Option menu but not mapped correctly to my keyboard. Has anyone else seen this? Also, I cannot directly click the Skval FOV switch on the collective - does this work for anyone else?

I am running DCS: BS w/ patch on Vista 64-bit with Matrox TripleHead2Go Digital, Saitek X52 Pro w/ pedals and TrackIR 5. The following keys (either directly from the keyboard or when I map them to the Saitek) do not function: “УПЗ-ШПЗ” switch. Adjust Shkval field of view (FOV) between 23x and 7x: wide [-] and narrow [=]. “РАМКА” selector – Adjust “Shkval” tracking gate size [[]. Note: The []] key (which decreases the gate size) does work but the [[] does not. And, yes, they are mapped properly in the game options menu. Anyone else encounter this? Thanks.

Hey All. New to the forum but a long time hardcore sim fan (and former US Army Reserves Aviator - UH 60 and UH-1). I recently got back into the fray when I came across DCS: BS and invested in triple Acer 233H 23" WS monitors with a Matrox TripleHead2Go Digital box. The monitors were $180 each and do the job quite well. I'm hooked again!
