Ivonq Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 Just bought a Saitek Cyborg X - what is your configuration for BS/Lockon? Wife called, can unpack it tonight. Anyone has one of these? What is your experience?
barra733 Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 I have one and find it very good. It feels a bit strange to start with but you'll get used to it. I also use a modified Cyborg 3d Gold as a collective/throttle and a Cyborg Gamepad and I use all of those buttons as well. I think my whole set up cost less than £50 as I bought it all off e-bay and the pad and throttle are second hand. Button (Shifted) 1 Fire missile/rocket 2 Centre Shkval (Nav lights) 3 Shkval narrow (Macro - All interior lights & tip lights) 4 Lock/Select (Anti collision lights) 5 Shkval wide (Night lighting) 6 Flares (Auto Pilot) 7 Master Arm (Altitude mode rad/baro) 8 Laser (Auto pilot mode route/track) 9 Weapons System reset (director mode) 10 Parking Brake 11 Wiper Scroll up -Trim (Shkval gate wider) Scroll down -Centre view (Shkval gate narrow) Left Throttle forward - Gear Left Trottle back - brakes Right throttle back - Descent mode Hat - view As I said - I also use two other input devices but I find that the above are the most used less the gun fire which is on the collective.

Thank you for your input. Appreciating it! Just tested it. It is a very nice stick, I'm very pleased. Grtz
barra733 Posted July 28, 2009 Posted July 28, 2009 With this setup you are unable to press&hold trim. I've never needed to. When I'm in stable flight I simply push the scroll wheel up and the trim sets.:joystick:
Guest greyghost Posted October 9, 2009 Posted October 9, 2009 I recently purchased a cyborgX also, a little puzzled on how to set up the collective using the levers. If anyone has any profiles for this controller they care to upload for BS that would be great!!
