pmaura Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 I am trying to set one of the hats on my Gunfighter 3 Spacecombat stick to work as the rudder on the apache but dcs refuses to allow the left hat to do it. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any suggestions? Are you sure you are not in the axis settings? Hat would require the buttons settings.

pmaura Posted April 28, 2022 Author Share Posted April 28, 2022 fairly noobish with all the correct terminology, but it seems to feel like something that work like an axis setting. Not sure how to set it up like that though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dburne Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 (edited) In the drop down box in DCS it should say All but Axis, which is the button assignments. Find rudder, and you should see rudder left and rudder right. This is where you can assign a button to each. In Axis commands you will see only one rudder listing for the rudder axis. Below is an image of the button assignments screen where you will see rudder left and rudder right. Note I don't have any assignments there as I have mine assigned in the axis settings.

You can check on VKB forums for how to add buttons to the POV hat.

spikenet Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 yep you might need to go into the VKB config app and make sure it is configured as a mini stick (axis) On my MCG I press and hold the stick button and it changes to mini stick mode from HAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
