Scooternutz Posted March 28, 2017 Posted March 28, 2017 Offtopic, but did you put griptape on your throttle? That idea with the mouse is great. Need to try that with a cheap cable mouse. I'm pretty comfortable with using my right hand and the mouse to select the stuff. I just hold the Joystick/Cyclic with the left hand while operating the mouse. Yup, saw the tape before the mouse. Want to do that now!!!!! [sIGPIC]https://drive.google.com/file/d/16rUBmmJR7A3YGZVGPGskxG1XtvulGojJ/view?usp=sharing[/sIGPIC]

Want to do that now!!!!! Yes I applied it to both my throttle as seen in pics as well as my jstick. It is a product I used for my handguns grips called Talon Grips. https://talongungrips.com/other-grips/material/ I used paper to make templates to get exact pattern for nice fit and then cut material using paper pattern. It comes in 2 material types, Rubber grip, that I used, as well as a sandpaper type material called Granular. I bought 2 or 3 sheets of the large size for it all. Feels awesome and removes that often ice cold feel they get when not in use. I recommend it highly.
freehand Posted March 31, 2017 Posted March 31, 2017 I have just picked up a big track ball a friend has given to me works with mouse still connected no problem not sure how I am going to get along with it my first intentions was for my photo editing work but will give it ago in vr dcs.
SGT Coyle Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Anyone got the TARGET code to map "Left Click" to TM WartHog button? Just can't find it in doc. Night Ops in the Harrier IYAOYAS
DayGlow Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) I picked up a left hand trackball to use beside my throttle. Mouse with right, trackball with left.

Buckeye Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 Good idea but you still need to take you hands of the HOTAS which will decrease efficiency compared to using the HOTAS. Think you're best off choosing buttons that you never really need to grasp for in an emergency (right mouse button is vital for quickly grasping for all sorts of buttons and levers, eject, landing gear etc!) and map them to the keypad though I might use your setup for the warthog. Try mapping mouse buttons to HOTAS and play with it for a while and I think like me you'll realize advantageous it can be sometimes. And in response to the other guys question yeah clouds are pretty funky in 1.5.5 fixed for 1.56 though I think but with more performance problems for the system. The real pilot takes his hands off the HOTAS too...

SGT Coyle Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 I can map the left mouse click button, however that still leaves the switches which need scrolling. How'd you map "Left mouse click" Night Ops in the Harrier IYAOYAS
hannibal Posted February 3, 2018 Posted February 3, 2018 i gave up on the trackball after it was a bad idea when i played with the buttkicker going, vibrations rendered the trackball useless.. find me on steam! username: Hannibal_A101A http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197969447179
