Avantar Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 (edited) Hi guys, as I am primarily interested in flying as RIO in Tomcat (multiplayer only) I wonder. The backoffice uses 2 sticks - radar and lantrin, whereas most of our pilots' setup consist of a HOTAS - stick and throttle. Do I need to get a second stick for left hand (Lantrin) or will there be some toggle that moves control of a single stick from radar to lantrin? (I know it's NOT like that in RL, I am just asking if there is a convenience option for typical flying setup, as I do not know a throttle that could easily work as a lantrin grip). If not, I guess I need to look for a second joystick with 3 hats... Oh.. disregard the post. I juuust found out ^_^ the lantrin "stick" does not move - just the hats, so I guess warthog throttle should be enough :) Edited February 24, 2019 by Avantar Avantar My rig: MSI MPG Z490 GAMING EDGE WIFI; HyperX Fury RGB 64GB (4x16GB) 3200MHz DDR4 CL16; Intel Core i9-10900KA; Zotac RTX 3090; HOTAS Warthog; HOTAS Cougar; MFD Cougar; Track IR 5; Saitek Pro Flight rudder Pedals [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

panton41 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 For what it's worth Thrustmaster makes a left/right handed pair of the T16000 sticks for Elite Dangerous. In that game you can map one stick as the throttle and use it for forward and reverse thrust as needed.

smallberries Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 FWIW the VKB Kosmosima grips are RH/LH and will be superior to the T16K for those that really want a LH stick with multiple hats. The T16K only has one 4-way(8-way?) switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeroamer Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Just FYI. The RIOs LANTIRN stick DOES NOT MOVE, it's functioned by the use of the hat switches. Just wanted to point this out before people go out and buy extra sticks that aren't required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
