In Cockpit Mouse Sensitivity

[Indyplumber]

I use the mouse in VR to click buttons and switches.  I find the movement speed too fast.  I've tried controlling it with the mouse software but it doesn't affect the cursor in the cockpit.  I've tried LSHIFT+[ but that only affects the camera view.  Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity of the mouse in the cockpit?

I've got the same problem.  Did you get anywhere with sussing it out?

Dredging up an old post here--I'm spending more time with DCS now and I finally had enough of struggling with the mouse sensitivity while trying to click buttons and switches. Is no one else having this problem?  Please no "just get point control";  after two FCU failures and no response from them I'm over it and moving on.

I've been watching a ton of YT videos and some folks' mouse pointers seen very stable?  What's the trick?

Just assign left and right mouseclick and even scroll to a joystick button and look at the buttons you want to use. click left once and the mouse cursor will appear in the center and then look at the switch you want to move and press the button. The best way to use the mouse in VR imo

You know intuitively I began doing this, but still using the mouse buttons. I have one of these velcro'd to a strap that's on my left leg which has been helpful. I may need to unbind some lessor used controls and use them for mouse clicks.  Appreciate the response!

Which trackball are you using? With a left or on the right configuration?

I am just using a second mouse for the cockpit with minimum sensitivity adjustment.

It's a cheap wired mouse from HP with DPI setting switch on the mouse.
