Tmaster T.Flight Hotas X profile

[jockyboy99]

Hi, I'm a newbie to DCS Warthog A10C and looking for a profile for the Tmaster T.Flight Hotas X stick. Can anyone help please??:pilotfly:

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I have the same question as well.

I discovered I can add a modifier switch and use my hat switch for other things as well.

 

Right now I have my hat switch set for viewing, trim, and coolie. (Now if I can only figure out what a coolie is.)

 

I would like to see how you guys that use this stick mapped your buttons. Any advice is helpful.

 

P.S. TrackIR will be here Wednesday, so I need to figure out what to map to the hat switch instead of view controls.

I mapped the hat switch to trim after i got trackIR, and foind that very pleasing!:)

I have the the Hotas X aswell. I have button 9 and 10 on the throttle set as modifiers. This gives me 3 sets of buttons I can use. I'll try and explain a little here, but it is very much a personel seetup and depends what other input devices you have i.e. track IR etc. I have track IR by the way.

 

No Modifier:

 

Button 1 = fire gun

Button 2 = drop/fire bomb/missle

Button 3 = Zoom out

Coolie hat = Trim

Button 5 (throttle) = Brakes

Button 6 = Teamspeak chat

Button 7 = speed brake out

Button 8 = speed brake in

Button SE = Autopilot

Button ST = change HUD mode i.e. Nav etc

 

Modifier 9 pressed:

 

 

Button 1 = fire gun

Button 2 = drop/fire bomb/missle

Button 3 = Steering on/off

Coolie hat = Move TGP/TAD marker

 

Button 5 (throttle) = DMS Forward

Button 6 = DMS Left

Button 7 = DMS Right

Button 8 = DMS Aft

Button SE = Not used

Button ST = Lights on

 

 

Modifier 10 pressed:

 

Button 1 = fire gun

Button 2 = drop/fire bomb/missle

Button 3 = Lights Off

Coolie hat = Used to switch between left MFD, right MFD or HUD as SOI

 

Button 5 (throttle) = TMS Forward

Button 6 = TMS Left

Button 7 = TMS Right

Button 8 = TMS Aft

Button SE = Not used

Button ST = Not Used

 

There are loads of different combinations you can have, but it is best to try and figure out what you use the most and what best suits you. With a bit of time and effort you can map the joystick very well. I would say firing weapons, DMS and TMS switches, trim and being able to lock a target up are a must.

 

I have added my setup, but to be honest, it will take you ages to figure out all the controls as I haven't written them all down.

Hi !

 

Thanks for this profile, it really helped me start playing DCS A-10C in good conditions without having to invest a lot of money !

I bought a second-hand T.Flight for 20€ and I use a PSEye with FaceTrackNoIR (~12€)

I took dnc's profile and modified it to be able to zoom with the slider

Here you go, Ive been using this one since i heard about DCS.

A10C, FC3, Huey, Mig21 bis, TF51

As for the A10C this is the way i work the systems.

 

SLEW - WSAD

DMS - LALT WSAD

TMS - LCTRL+SPACE (aft), SPACE (fwd), LCTRL + A (left), LCTRL + D (right)

BOAT - LSHIFT + 1, 2, 3

COOLIE - LSHIFT + WSAD

CHINA HAT - C (aft), V (fwd)

CMS - Hatswitch + a modifier on my joystick (nonmodified hat for looking around)

Flaps - keyboard default

Airbrakes - joystick (with modifier)

Throttle left button - modifier #2 + right hat

Mic - 1, 2, 3

Pinky - default

 

Modifiers are the 2 buttons behind the throttle, button 9 and 10.

 

This is the way i find most comfortable as you can work all these things with your right hand on the stick and you left one on the keyboard without even looking down at it.
