Apache "button box"

[javelina1]

Hola group,

I've been using the K-51 Collective ,TM/VPC Warbird, and MFG Crosswinds with the Apache.  Love flying this bird so much, during the work week, I manage to sneak in at least a cold start, and a quick workout for George (as my CPG) every day.  It's really the weekend where I can have the extended sessions. 

Just recently it dawned on me.  There was my TM throttle, just sitting there lonely and cold...  So I figured, what the heck, I could use it as an additional button box.  Which it's doing just fine. 

Just wanted to share, for what it's worth...

Now, going back to the Apache to ambush some baddies...

p.s. (what's really cool, is that they build/upgrade these birds literally right down the road from me... )

nice to hear

As Pilot im using my old n (t)rusty X-55 Throttle as collective and my fairly new TM Warthog Stick as cyclic.

For the CPG i have a "real button box". An old logitech G13 "keyboard" with 22 G-keys (programmable), 2 "mouse" keys and 1 mini stick. This is kinda my left TEDAC handgrip plus extras. On the right i have the old X-55 stick as my right TEDAC handgrip.

So yeah, table is pretty full but its working fine. And i can transition easily from CPG to flight controls or Pilot, depending on the situation. Also i can switch mode on the G-13 for more keys.....but have to bind them all in DCS first... XD

Greetings

K
