MaD Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 JoyToKey and T-50 Throttle If anyone also wants to configure the buttons and switches with more options like I was used to, JoyToKey was "the solution". :joystick: But with this great Vipril product I got into trouble with the software, as it supports "only" 32 buttons. In the minimal configuration we have 49 buttons with this throttle! So I wrote to the developer of JTK and he answered the next day with a link to the new beta version of the software which now supports up to 128 buttons! Now I'm able to have many options for every button, like keyboard emulation, auto repeat, toggle between on and off, switch between different assignments, double or even multi click of a button, long and short click, mouse emulation, shift function (like the dialbutton already does) and even more. If you want to get more out of this super throttle, you could try this software. Happy flying! :pilotfly: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I would like to try software like this but I am searching for software that does what the target software script does like CHAIN and TEMPO, etc. I don't think the software you are using does this does it?

chief Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Ok I'll check it out. Thanks mdee et al. I'm looking very forward to getting the stick, base and throttle. In the last week alone I had to resolder twice and found a broken, yet somewhat repairable, metal part on my TM stick. Everyone always talks about how much the like the TM being made of metal but it's clearly cheap pot metal. I think I'd take a good quality ABS plastic over the TM metal on the stick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars Exulte Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 The metal stuff is nice in theory, but the heavy weight requires stronger springs, especially when using an extension. The plastic grips are a bit less hassle for that sort of thing.

mdee Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 I have both Warthog and T-50 grip and prefer plastic a lot. I wish we could get the same quality western like grip (F-18). IMO metal is pure marketing thing, it doesn't really add anything except a feel of "expensive/quality". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FraserNZL Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Day 20 of waiting since my throttle order left customs office.

Barefoot Bandit Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 I have both Warthog and T-50 grip and prefer plastic a lot. I wish we could get the same quality western like grip (F-18). IMO metal is pure marketing thing, it doesn't really add anything except a feel of "expensive/quality". I prefer the Warthog grip to the T-50 ergonomically. If there were a good quality plastic replica of the WH grip, I'd probably prefer it, but I'd still insist on a metal lever, the plastic one on the T-50, especially with the fact that it's an axis, lacks feel. The plastic flxes, and I have a tough time knowing when the button is actuated, and when it is fully at the end of the press. The metal level on the WH feels much more precise in that I know when it has pressed the button. I've been tempted to get someone to make a metal version of the T-50 lever more than once... Otherwise, if the T-50 actually had a 4 ways +push at the thumb, I'd happily ditch the wathog grip. Z... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some1 Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 (edited) The T-50 lever is supposed to feel this way, all in all it's primarily an axis. The button is there for backwards compatibility, or for applications where a button makes more sense, and it activates halfway through the travel range, not at the end. I'm not even sure if there's a physical button, or it's just a software trick. Though I admit I have the CM version of the stick, and the guys have redesigned the lever quite a bit, so it doesn't flex. But I agree on the ergonomics, Warthog is unbeatable. Also the Virpil stick build quality is average, not as solid as Thrustmaster (not talking about metal vs. plastic, but parts fitting, panel gaps, etc.).

MustangSally Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 I think Cyph3r mentioned the end of October. Mini-stick is a long way off i think. I have no issue with using one of the digital hats to control the TD on the F-18....nice and smooth.

mdee Posted October 15, 2018 Share Posted October 15, 2018 You can do button to axis assignment on mini stick and use curves etc. to make it behave really smoothly. No issues whatsoever. Analog stick would be great, but it's not necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
