I posted on this in the F-4 forum but didn't get any response. I guess it's a general question though.

I have the HSI Course and Heading knobs bound to 2-way switches.  A slight touch of the switch and the headings change by 10 degrees. That is way to crude!

Is there a way - edit a lua? - to 'slow down' the responsiveness of these controls?

Hi. I'm pretty sure this is on the module maker side, and I think you can even tweak the game files to obtain what suits you best. The setting is somwhere around here: ."\DCS World\Mods\aircraft\F-4E\Cockpit\". I think the figures you need to edit are in clickabledata.lua, lines 568-569.

elements["PNT_PILOT_HSI_HEADING_SET_KNOB"] = default_axis(_("Set HSI Heading"), devices.HSI_AF_A24J_1, device_commands.PILOT_HSI_HEADING_SET_KNOB, cockpit_args.PILOT_HSI_HEADING_SET_KNOB, 0.0, 0.1, false, true, nil, pilot_only)
elements["PNT_PILOT_HSI_COURSE_SET_KNOB"] = default_axis(_("Set HSI Course"), devices.HSI_AF_A24J_1, device_commands.PILOT_HSI_COURSE_SET_KNOB, cockpit_args.PILOT_HSI_COURSE_SET_KNOB, 0.0, 0.07, false, true, nil, pilot_only)

Once you find the correct settings, and once you tweak them to your taste, you can ask Heatblur to use these values in their module.

Thanks, as always, @Flappie. Sadly, editing those values only seems to affect the mouse, not the bound HOTAS switch buttons.

I just got a reply from one of the Heatblur devs to say that this issue is fixed and will be in the next patch.  So, good news!
