Saitek X52 Setup for A10C

[FireWolf]

Hey Guys,

 

I have been searching through the forums looking for a great setup tutorial for my X52 system. Any hints or suggestions as to where I could get it set up great, once and for all? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I just got DCS A-10C and am in training.

 

Thanks Guys!

Feel free to give me a shout if you want to fly. I'm available most weekdays from 8am-4pm GMT

Hey Hunter,

 

Thanks for the quick reply bruh! I would definitley appreciate it. I am just now learning the cold start and have a ways to go before I fly with anyone. I don't want to screw up, but when I get there, I will definitely go up with you! Thanks man!

Instructions on how to install, it's really easy.

 

I've just managed to master the startup and now I've got TrackIR and my x52 I've been flying around with them.

 

I still need to learn how to navigate, lock on and fire rockets etc all I know now is using the cannon! All this DMS TMS China Hat etc makes no sense to me yet lol.

 

Are you online now?

Hey Hunter, Thanks man, I really appreciate it! I will grab that and get it all setup. I'm online for the forum but not in the sim. Some of the acronyms make sense to me, I was a Firefighter in the U.S Air Force for 8 years. So I know what they mean, just not really how to use them. =) I damn sure know how to shut an A-10 down, but that doesn't really help me now. Ha!

I had an X52 and found it easier to take someone else's profile and tweak it to my preferences, so you may want to get in there and make it to how you want to fly. I sat next to my friend who had a TM Warthog and went through the actual HOTAS assignments and did my best to mirror these on the X52. Like I said, make it to your needs if you can.

If you want a sst profile that is ready to go, without TrackIR, and including a .doc with all the most prominent functions. PM me, I can send it to your mail.

You might give my profile a try. I spent a lot of time researching the best layout, and I've been flying since beta, so I was familiar with order of importance, etc. This is for the x52'pro', but if you look down the thread there's a post about how to convert it to straight X52.

HIGHLY recommend this one. One important step that you need to do is you have to go into options in DCS W (single player), go to A10C sim and add Joystick6 as a modifier (there's a modifier button on the bottom left of the controls list) otherwise it won't work (and you'll get red bars on the controls list). I think there's also a requirement to remap A and S or B and N but I've forgotten.

[...]I think there's also a requirement to remap A and S or B and N but I've forgotten.

 

For SFJackBauer's profile, you need to remap keys "B" and "N" for the air brakes on the throttle-mini-slider.

Important: If you used the air brakes, always put the slider back to the middle position. Otherwise, it continuously sends key signals of either "B" or "N", which could lead to freezes or CTDs.
