Specter1075 Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 (edited) Hello all. Ive have not had much time to learn this sim yet, but what little time I do have has been marred by what I assume to be an imput problem. I have not been able to see this sim for longer than 10 seconds at a time because regardless of the situation, as soon as I have control, I begin pitching up uncontrolably, or spinning, or flipping completely upside down. It seems too violent to be a trim issue, and looking in the settings menu, it seems the inputs are set to unusual things. Could someone either point me to a good profile to load or tell me what the appropriate axis are called (ie what should I assign to collective up, down etc) I dont understand all the abbreviated codes I get for options when I want to assign a new input. Thanks, I hope this makes some sense cause I really dont know how else to describe the issue. EDIT Ok, sitting on the ground I can see that my throttle isnt doing anything, and the rudders seem to have some weird effect on the cyclic. I found a cougar profile which I uploaded, but it doesnt seem to fix the problem. Should I be addressing this issue in-game or through Foxy? Second EDIT Could someone provide me a screenshot of the menu screen with their axis assignments? I just dont know what to bind each control to. I can worry about everything else later, for now I just want to be able to control the cyclic, rudder and collective. Edited February 18, 2009 by Specter1075
Specter1075 Posted February 21, 2009 Author Posted February 21, 2009 Ive got cyclic and rudder working, but I cant figure out the collective. In the drop down list of axis one may set, can someone tell me which refers to the throttle on a Cougar set up? The only list of axis I see are: JOY_ARX JOY_SLIDER1 JOY_ARY JOY_SLIDER2 JOY_ARZ JOY_VRX JOY_ASLIDER1 JOY_VRY JOY_ASLIDER2 JOY_VRZ JOY_AX JOY_VSLIDER1 JOY_AY JOY_VSLIDER2 JOY_AZ JOY_VX JOY_FRX JOY_VY JOY_FRY JOY_VZ JOY_FRZ JOY_X JOY_FSLIDER1 JOY_Y JOY_FSLIDER2 JOY_Z JOY_FX JOY_FY JOY_FZ JOY_RX JOY_RY JOY_RZ JOY_SLIDER1 JOY_SLIDER2 JOY_VRX JOY_VRY JOY_VRZ JOY_VSLIDER1 JOY_VSLIDER2 JOY_VX JOY_VY JOY_VZ JOY_X JOY_Z Could someone PLEASE tell me which of these refer to the throttle, if any. And if not, possible reasons why Im not seeing the throttle axis? Thank you!
JDski Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 I'm not running a profile yet. I may in the future, but I haven't found the need as much as in other sims because BS lets you assign so much in the game itself. So I'm running my Cougar in windows mode. Throttle is joy slider1 ( the range dial). Collective is joy z.( the throttle) Not sure why your having a hard time setting things up though. It does it by itself when you move the axis when your assigning one in the game.

Should then automatically assign it as collective. Novice or Veteran looking for an alternative MP career? Click me to commence your Journey of Pillage and Plunder!
