[Niehorst]

simple question:

Open the keyboard.lua under your %user%\Saved Games\DCS\Config\Input\a-10a\ with Notpad++

 

Scroll down to the last "combos" entry and paste the following lines in.

 

 
{combos = {{key = "H", reformers = {"RCtrl", "RShift", }}, }, pressed = iCommandPlane_Helmet_Brightess_Down, name = "Gain goggles down", category = "Sensors"},
{combos = {{key = "H", reformers = {"RAlt", "RShift", }}, }, pressed = iCommandPlane_Helmet_Brightess_Up, name = "Gain goggles up", category = "Sensors"},
{combos = {{key = "H", reformers = {"RShift", }}, }, down = iCommandViewNightVisionGogglesOn, name = "Toggle goggles", category = "Sensors"},

 

This is the same setup used in the A-10C. Customize the keys to your liking or if you have already used those.

 

This also works for the TOAD, FROG, and STANG.
