TDC Slew no work well in the Microstick of Cougar

[Legolasindar]

Hi, im setting controls for the A-10A in the new FC2, all run well, except TDC Slew. TDC control the TV camera, but in the FC2 if i try move TDC with MS (Microstick) of the Cougar, this follow axis, and return to the center when my MS return to the center, not run as mouse, this same method run well in the BS with the Shkval, but no here, Is a bug?

 

I tried differents solutions, in my profile of the Cougar, setting Slider off/on in the FC2, cant found the solution. Is possible axis of TDC is bad programed.

 

Thanks.

Same problem here with the mini stick on my x52. But in the F-15 the ministick has no problems operating the TD of the radar. Strange.

maybe try use the mouse and emulate the mouse on your microstick? I dont own a Cougar. but ... it works great on my CH throttle pro.

Assign the microstick as mouse. Then change the TDC slew in game settings to mouseX and mouseY. Works for me with both.

That's what I did. And it works for every aircraft (F-15 ministick as mousaxis controls radar TD, same with Russian Fighters. On the Su-25T no problem using the ministick as mouse axis for Shkval).

But for some reason it doesn't work for the A-10's mavericks.

Yes, it works exactly same as CH thorttle pro.:thumbup:

In the BS not need assign mouseX/Y to the Shkval for use this with Microstick, if i assign mouseX/Y to TDC lost camera view with mouse axis. If in BS run, in FC2 should also work, but with A-10A (i not tried others airplanes) not work.

I tried in A-10C, Su-25T and F-15C and in all this planes, Microstick not work well with TDC/Shkval. I tried with Axis and with mouse in MS. Im not trying assigning mouseX/Y to this TDC in the FC2 because i think this is a bug, and should not be necessary.

Any ED idea or solution to this bug?

The problem is centering. The problem is still here and it was in previous versions of LOFC. I have same thing on my Cougar.

When I assign target designator on my throttle (two axis) inside the game for slewing TDC/Shkval vertically and horizontally - it works but each time I release my finger from the mini-stick, everything centers! Cursor doesn't stay on target but goes back to center. This gives so much trouble locking up targets that all I can do is to key controls for up/down/left/right and assign them through Cougar profiles to my mini-stick axis ranges. However then I loose analogue control (smooth with different rates).

 

This is fixed for Ka-50.

 

Should be fixed on all other planes. Please ED.

Because it's behaving like a slider in the game that directly represents the position of the TDC rather than an axis that adjusts the TDC and stops adjusting when the axis is centered.

Heres one I was going to ask, and since its already been brought up, how about just using the mouse instead of the ministick or whatever? Id like to know how to use the mouse as an axis instead of the ministick on my controller...that thing is a PITA to use. Oh yeah...clickable pits.
