531-Ghost Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 Forgive me but I must ask. I'm setting up my controllers (CH) and in the documentation it refrences both a "CHINA" HAT as well as a "COOLIE" HAT. Are they not the same type HAT? For instance on the throttle control... :joystick:
Mathiew Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 The china hat is the red one (below the boat switch) and the coolie hat is the black one (near the slew control stick) HAF X - CM SPG 800W - Asus P8P67 Pro B3 - i7 2600K @ 4,6 - 8GB Corsair Vengeance CAS8 @ 1600 - Gainward Phantom GTX 770 2GO - Samsung 830 128 go (DCS A-10 on it) - Samsung Spinpoint F3 1To

Rider1 Posted April 26, 2011 Posted April 26, 2011 (edited) Hi Ghost. For my CHFS/PROTHROT, I used pages 83 through 90 in the manual. I first went into Control Manager and made two generic profiles. Device1 for stick, 2 for throttle. Then assigned every button, hat, etc a button number. Didn't link them as one device, or use any scripting. Went into the game and used the key setup. I started by deleting all the commands from both devices to avoid duplications. I then assigned each input using the key assignment, according to the diagrams in the manual, by simply clicking each button for the desired action. Some assignments I did have to use the assignment drop down list and find the button I wanted. The stick was pretty straight forward as it matches the real stick. Mostly :) The throttle, I did have to use a little "creative" assigning as it doesn't quite match the real TQ. I am a few buttons short, but I am using the lower throttle thumb button as the zoom slider, which works great for me. For the PAC1 I use the pinky button on the stick. For the target slew command, I use the thumb slew button on the throttle. I assigned it in game as Control Manager Device 2>Axis commands>Hotas Slew Horizontal, Slew Vertical and assigned them as JOYX and JOYY respectively. I used the Axis tune to lower the saturation to about 40 and added a slight curve and deadzone to decrease the sensitivity, as it was just to fast and jumpy at default. The CMS on the real stick has a Z axis that is not documented in the manual. Push the CMS down to start and stop the jammer while in MAN and Semi Mode. We aren't able to push ours down, so I assigned CMS right to the Z axis. Works great. I push CMS left to cycle it to program Z, which sets it kick out 2 flares and chaff when started, for running in and egress.. Hope this helps a bit with your setup .. :) Quick edit to thank you and the guys and gal over at the CH Hangar for the all of the support and help you have given me over the years. Cheers!
