Hi, I'm trying to set my (zoom in and zoom out slow) to map to my slider on hotas. I've tried numerous settings but I cant seem to figure it out? anyone out there know how to configure this? thanks guys!

It should be pretty straightforward from the axis tune page? What are you trying to do to make it work?

[hollywoody]

I've tried maping the Keypad keys for (zoom in and out) directly to slider in SST and that didn't work, I also tried it within BS contol settings and tuning but that didn't work either. when I do click and hilite a box within bs controls I normally can press any button and it recognises it, but when I try with the slider it doesn't recognize it?

You need to go to the Axis Tune page to map axes. On the top left of the control mapping screen, there's a drop down menu, and one of the options is Axis Tune written in red.

As noted above by Slug88 when in axis commands, just click in the "zoom view" box under the X-52 column then click add. Move the slider back and forth and it will assign it automatically.

The best way to do it is in the SST program. Do a banded set up 10% 80% 10% the top and botom 10% will be the key commands for zoom in/out. The middle 80% blank. I have found this to be the best setup and the slider tends to do the gitter bug a bit.

I gave up on the slider because of the jitters with the X52. I now have it assigned to a trim wheel but I can do that because I have a separate collective control. Free's up all the X52 throttle inputs for other misc. things!

Why the way around the world when it's around the corner? As previously said - map the zoom axis in the options - controlers - axis commands.

I did try mapping it in controls/axis and yes it was easier and it worked, but the slider pot was to twitchy for zoom.

+1 on the banded setup. No jitter and easy to use.
