Cerulean Posted February 3, 2022 Posted February 3, 2022 Hey folks, I noticed Matric offers axis and encoder virtual levers and knobs now. Does anyone know if these work well with DCS? I only own an iPad, and Matric only works on Android, so I'd have to buy an Android tablet to check it out. If it is confirmed to work well, I'll get it.
tonosity Posted March 21, 2022 Posted March 21, 2022 Bump! I'm interested in hearing any experiences with this, as well. Thanks!
omohat Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 Bit late now but I'll respond incase its helpful. I've just tried these out and they seem to work well. You have to install a driver for a vjoy device which gives you 8 additional axis (per device and I think you can have more than one device) which can then be assigned to encoders and sliders in MATRIC. DCS then detects the vjoy device and axis and you can map them to cockpit controls. I've been using them so far for cockpit lighting dials where a lot of precision isn't required so can't say how well they would work for e.g. tuning to a specific frequency (I think if you put a curve on the axis it should probably give you the required sensitivity for tuning radios).
