Synchronised Throttles for VR Controllers

[James744]

I fly DCS in VR with a HOTAS Stick, and use a VR controller on my left hand to operate switches and throttles. With twin-engine aircraft, It is often hard to grab both throttles at the same time and often just move one and have to grab the second one after realising. It would be incredibly useful for people who fly like me (and hopefully easy to implement) to add an option in settings, to synchronise throttles (possibly by having a master and slave throttle) so they increase and decrease together like they would when using buttons on a keyboard/gamepad. Thanks!

Great suggestion, probably something that they could add to the VR tab. The sim already has the ability to move the throttles together as it is an axis command. However you can not unlatch when needed. So in theory I would think it wouldn't be difficult to code an un/latch option.

Yeah, id like this too.
And the ability to use the rudder with the Thumbstick, when in a helo.

Thanks for the response. This small program should help with the rudders. It definately works with the thumbstick sending button inputs, not sure about axis commands though. Works for anything Oculus as far as I can tell.
