cb1968 Posted November 1, 2020 Posted November 1, 2020 I'm having issues with the mini-joystick on my Thrustmaster Warthog Throttle controller in A-10 II being oversensitive. I've tried changing the characteristics of the axes via the control panel but it still shoots around so fast it's hard to use it accurately all in the HMCS, maverick and TGP. I don't have this problem in the F/A-18. Furthermore, when trying to position the crosshairs in the HMCS, as soon as I release pressure on the mini-joystick the crosshair randomly jumps to another nearby position. It's pretty much unuseable really. Anybody got any suggestions please? Thanks Craige

For the maverick - when warmed up, I enter 2 from the UFC scratchpad and press the OSB on the mav screen for the slew rate.

Yurgon Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 I thought the original axis tune setting in DCS works fairly well. Did you reset it? It should contain a large center deadzone, a curve in the 15 to 30 region if memory serves, and a reduced saturation. Still, that cursor is pretty bad, regarding the otherwise good quality of the TM Warthog. If you're ready to invest some $ 60 or so, take a good look at this slew cursor replacement mod. I have it, I love it, I recommend it (and no, I don't get anything for this advertisement :D): Yet another warthog slew upgrade 1
Meyomyx Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 I use this. Use small inputs for precision but full deflection moves at a reasonable rate 1
LeCuvier Posted November 2, 2020 Posted November 2, 2020 With the default axis tune settings it is usable although not ideal. It's 15% saturation, 30% deadzone and zero curvature for both axes. Meyomix has a point: sometimes you want to move the cursor fast. He uses a custom curve but I think a "normal" curve with a curvature of 30% would be good enough. The deadzone might help with the "jumping" when you release the button, I haven't tried. It might be better to use another button on your HOTAS for this function. I'm thinking about using the lever switch on my TM WH stick. 1 LeCuvier Windows 10 Pro 64Bit | i7-4790 CPU |16 GB RAM|SSD System Disk|SSD Gaming Disk| MSI GTX-1080 Gaming 8 GB| Acer XB270HU | TM Warthog HOTAS | VKB Gladiator Pro | MongoosT-50 | MFG Crosswind Pedals | TrackIR 5
