Joystick's Top Hat = Lateral & Vertical Thrusters Throttle's Finger Stick = Forward / Backward Thrust (not the Throttle which needs set to Zero via my middle finger) MIDDLE THUMB HAT: UP = Mic Hold Press / DOWN = Cycle Next Hostile for CZs / FORWARD = Select Target (as Lock on) / BACK = Nearest Hostile SELECT NEXT / PREVIOUS TARGET & MENU LEFT/RIGHT = Yaw Paddle with tape around it! LATERAL & VERTICAL THRUSTERS = Pointing finger joystick (pull up is up)īOOST = Pointing finger joystick's button LITTLE FINGER = FOCUS GUI (I use it differently as it makes the Pop Up When Look go away when held) HOTAS THROTTLE: (Elite's is modelled on TWCS) They're not so easy to get to in a panic which is another reason for VoiceAttack! SWIVEL MAP PLANE UP = Stick's mini-throttle (GalMap needs to see the circle to lock selections so keep this up)Īll the base buttons do what you want. Irishlad147 shares his thoughts on using the infamous microsoft sidewinder force feedback 2 joystick with elite dangerous. Buying a spanking new corvette with a wimpy. HAT = Pip Management (this matches your hand in the cockpit animation, down being reset) The original microsoft sidewinder gamepad had a digital directional pad, six fire buttons, two trigger buttons, and a mode and start button. SWITCH FIREGROUPS = Right Thumb (set any turrets to fire at Target Only and use Switch Groups to cease fire to avoid accidental fire) HOTAS JOYSTICK: (Elite's is modelled on the X52)įIRE 1 = Trigger & FIRE 2 = Thumb Trigger (obviously) SELECT WINGMAN #'s TARGET (uses 2 binds: Select which Wingman and Select Wingman's Target) PIPS MANAGEMENT (as well as now on Joystick Hat) However I like to use VoiceAttack for many commands:. Next common issue is the Yaw on the Throttle which has too much movement and can accidentally trigger.very bad when you use it for Target Select & Menus as it has no Deadzone if used as a switch! I use some tape around it to limit miss-triggers.Įverybody will setup their HOTAS differently and I am constantly changing due to so many options available on the T16000. The only solution is replace it on warranty as I did after 1month! Good choice! Although be aware of things that can develop.my 1st one had the common Joystick's Yaw problem which even though they can email you a Calibration Tool to remedy, this will still return in which the Yaw Sensor (not a Hall-type) can drift. Thanks for this idea, with the newly discovered modifier function described above I think I will use the four base buttons on my Sidewinder Precision 2 (yes, a 3000 3090 build paired with a cheap 25 year old joystick ) as four modifier keys and have one modifier dedicated purely for ATC in a similar manner as yours.

You mean the T10000M FCS surely which I switched to after the T-Flight stick.
