Elf1606688794 Posted Friday at 12:27 AM Posted Friday at 12:27 AM Both the Virpil software and Joystick Gremlin see 79 buttons on this throttle. I can find (via button presses) buttons 1-55 and 67-71. Where are 56-66 and 72-79?
Wostg Posted Friday at 04:38 AM Posted Friday at 04:38 AM (edited) I haven't counted up the numbers on my fingers but I'm guessing: "5-WAY MODE DIAL Configurable as either 5 independent button inputs, or as 5-way shift modifier, allowing you to configure up to 5 actions to every input. You won't run out of space for your keybinds with the MongoosT-50CM3 Throttle."

That said, the Virpil Joystick tester software lets you depress buttons on your controls and you see the corresponding button in the software light up. You can get buttons 1-55 and 67-71 to light up. 67-71 is the 5 position mode selector. Where are the others?
Markus77 Posted Friday at 11:21 PM Posted Friday at 11:21 PM Hi, perhaps these are the standard axis to button assignments. Greetings

Wostg Posted yesterday at 04:40 AM Posted yesterday at 04:40 AM When the mode switch function is activated in the VPC software it will hardwire the 6 led buttons to different assignments based on mode. (as opposed to the dial just being 5 regular buttons if set that way). You can choose either mode in the VPC software. I think guy above is probably right though. You can set, say, the flap axis to pretend to be buttons. So if the A10 had no flaps axis but DCS did have up/mvr/down buttons: you could set say 0-10% to be flaps down, 10-90% to be mvr, 90-100% to be up. Those would show as your missing 3 buttons. Probably. 1 I can think of nothing heavier than an airplane I can think of no greater conglomerate of steel and metal I can think of nothing less likely to fly
