I totally agree with Eddie, I came across your channel searching for the Xbox and Hotus setup. I was so pleased with the level of slow indept explanations that I subbed by I even finished watching ur video. Thank you for the time and effort u put into your videos they are more appreciated than you could imagine! I look fwd to the future content!
Welcome aboard & thank you too for those great comments ;)
Thanks a lot for taking the time to do this.
I have all these settings saved under a profile titled Huddy's.
Did the same for my gamepad when I first acquired the XBox S.
I'm flattered to have a profile named after me ;)
Very nicely explained could do all the challenges after this vid!
That's great to hear!
I purchased the X Box Series X basically for MSFS alone-I have been looking at videos-etc. My Hotas should be arriving today-Your site is now my "go to" and will be over the next few days I'm sure. Appreciate the clear and easy to follow advice and just thoughts on it. Keep up the great work!
Wow thanks :)
Thanks for all the updates
Always my pleasure
Someone replied to them on Twitter, and they said that they are working on the sensitivity, so hopefully, that gets sorted soon. It is shocking it taking this long to fix the hotas one and still waiting for the sensitivity. Thanks for the video. I think I will start playing MSF again.
It really is shocking, but at least we're 50% there - great to hear you're going to start playing MSFS again :)
Like you, I can't believe we still have to wait for the sensitivity options to save. First world problems are still problems I say. Love the trim tip, going to try this out soon. Thank you.
Thanks and lets hope they patch in sensitivities saving soon.
Unbelievable that they mess about with graphics while ignoring the basic peripherals setting of sensitivities!😡
Good tips on switching the trim and break buttons. I had the same issue on the trim. Basically non-responsive. Spitfire is still a beast trying to land either way. Maybe it is just me.
I'm aiming to release a series soon; covering basics like trim etc.
@@Huddison That's good to hear as it's the one issue I've grappled with more than others. There isn't a lot of great instruction available on this.
Hi again, disregard my previous query , I have just found your brilliant tute, thanks, Norman
No worries 😉
Du bist der beste ✌🏻✌🏻
Thanks 😉
Another amazing video Huddison!
I don't have Xbox, as you know, I fly on PC. But I can feel your pain on some of these things..
Quick question on the HOTAS 1... Do you prefer the twist for rudder, or using rudder pedals?
I know each option is valid and good, but just curious your thoughts as it pertains to the XBox.
Could be good info for other XBox simmers, unless you've already noted it and I missed it.. LOL
Thanks again for all you do!! 😎
Thanks Aces. The pedals give much more definitive rudder action for sure; so they are my preference 😉
Excellent video! Would you be game to do a similar one, for your Helicopter controls, for HOTAS?
I'm using a XBOX series S and tried to modify the sensibilities of the axis conform the video. I succeeded and I could save the new sensibilities as huddison in flight simulator!!! I can now choose between STANDAARD and HUDDISON settings when I started Flight Simulator again. I bought the T.FLIGHT HOTAS ONE a few days ago so perhaps they have changed the software of the joystick. Thanks a lot for your nice and very good video's!!!!
Do your senstivities still save when you turn off your console from the power outlet?
@@Huddison No , I did turn of my console from the power outlet....then reconnect and start the console and flight simulator. I still have my huddison settings choice but the sensivities are back to the standard zero values... When I keep the console connected to the power outlet..... and whatever, I mostly do that and simply turn off the console when finished. Then I keep my HUDDISON settings to load!!!! Ohhh great video's from your side about flight simulator....I'm an senior (78 years) user that started a few months ago when xbox flight simulator was born. Thanks a lot for your very nice videos!!!
Today, I started FS again on my XBOX S without disconnecting the xbox console from the power outlet and again I could start with huddison's sensivities without manual changing the sensivities.
Great to know, thanks :)
The trim setup is way more intuitive and realistic
Hudds I imagine you've moved onto greater things with the Velocity One but just wondering were there any developments on the Hotas sensitivity issues.
I've raised them with Thrustmaster and Asobo Labs but probably to no avail. Keep those excellent videos coming 😉
Thanks and I still use the Hotas One - great for just lounging back on the coach with. I've heard no further developments re the sensitivities saving as of yet.
Hudds
Just an update from Thrustmaster support to acknowledge at least that they're aware of the problem and are working with Asobo and Microsoft on a fix. Hopefully it gets sorted 🙂
i think Axis 6 and 7 may be for the actual rudder, if you noticed there is a port for the rudder plug in next to the PC and Xbox button.
Thanks again for going through this setup again. So disappointed that the sensitivity settings still are not saved but nothing you can do about that. I like some of the changes you've made from your previous videos. I noticed in this video you omitted changing the sensitivity of Axis 1 were you just leaving it as is to save time or does this work better for you? 2nd question what do you use for spoilers or do you just prefer to arm the autobrake. As always great video and keep up the awesome work.
Thanks Reggie, I omitted Axis 1 (the throttle axis) for now to save time, as you mentioned - the throttle actually still feels smooth and fine without it I've found.
I haven't played much with he spoilers or autobrake on the Hotas One, but any of the 3 unused buttons (A, B or X) could easily suffice for this.
I prefer my “y” button to be spoilers with “b” being landing gear and “a” being parking brake and “x” being auto start up.
@@thehashslingingslasher69 Yes it's good for people to find their own setups, that they are most comfortable with.
H thanks homie
I've got "stuttering " throttle on my hotas one since update 6 . Only on Cessna grand caravan ,that I know of !!! ... great job !
Tell me more about this 'stuttering' issue.
@@Huddison hi buddy ! .... The throttle goes mental & just falls to null power ! ...only the grand caravan of course ! ... I've gone to control sensitivity options , all seems ok ! This am took the citation for a spin ! ... No issues at all . Thanks for your interest mate !
Great video! Is there a way to set up the a button to go to cursor mode on the Hotas? Thanks!
I'm investigating this ;)
Hi. I’m a complete newbie to MSFS and Hotas. Thanks for your informative videos. How do I click on screen and grab things or close boxes in flight tutorials using xbox? Thanks.
You really need a mouse or the Xbox gamepad to do that currently; I've not yet found a way to do it with the Hotas.
I’ve got the gear set for B5, flaps on the two white buttons under it.
That sounds like it would work well.
Hey mate. Is there a way to just use the hotas and be able to bring up the pointer to bring up the top menu for atc etc, or to actually click on the autopilot buttons? I think on the Xbox controller you click down on the left stick to bring up the pointer. Cheers
Not that I've yet found - but I shall endeavour to look into this one; could be useful to others ;)
Morning , in OZ for me !thanks again for the sensitivity video , brilliant , I am made up, so much so I am going to try and setup all my buttons in the manner you use !!!
with this in mind do you have a link to a printout list of buttons and functions please , I am of an age where brain retention is diminishing so a list would be invaluable for prompt choice of button plus it being a valuable aid .
I also think it would help when I am actually doing the setup on the Xbox series X,
Many thanks
Hi Norman, I don't have a printed list as of yet, but I am thinking of making something similar.
@@Huddison please put me on your list,
I have tried making one from your videos but cocked it up, appreciate your help,
Cheers , Norman
Thanks for this video, great changes to button assignments. I used to fly a lot with an earlier version of msfs back in the 90s and just back to it now after hearing how great the latest version is. Using an Xbox series S with the Hotas one and pedals. Haven’t got too many hours in yet but I have another issue I wonder if you have any ideas on. If I go to an airport, say LHR the screen just breaks up into flickering and jumping around. My initial thought was that I was set for too high resolution and the frame rate was affected but when looking in settings you don’t seem to be able to adjust sensitivities at all !! Can you advise, please ?
Many thanks.
Can you give me more information on how your screen breaks up and flickers?
@@Huddison hi, I’ve only used a couple of uk airports, Heathrow and Teesside - big v/s small ?! However the issue was much the same. The background and buildings etc are the problem, the inside outside of the aircraft is ok. The buildings just breakup and flicker/flash like tv interference. Is there anyway on the Xbox I can take screenshots and send you ? First time I’ve touched a console, been a PC expert both at home and work, before retirement, so breaking new tech ground at 72 !
@@richardwales5319 You can hit the big 'X' button in the centre of your gamepad and you'll see an option there to save a screenshot.
Now I've never actually transferred saved images from my Series S over to my PC; but I imagine it'll just a matter of going to your media Icon on the Home-screen and copying them onto a USB dive.
@@richardwales5319 Also join the Discord: discord.gg/3kra6JfHZT - as that's the easiest way to share pictures & there are a few good brains about in there ;)
@@Huddison hi, think it’s fixed itself. When I booted up today, it did an update of msfs. Just been into Heathrow again and it’s fine. Maybe it was just everything settling down, I’ve only been running it for 3 days ?
with zero to neutral sensitivities by default, the T_flight is perfect for all MSFS aircraft. Fly for 2 weeks every day like this with all kinds of planes, and you will understand (in modern physics and without assistance of course) - the Cessna will be a Cessna, the Junker will be a Junker and the Pitts will be a Pitts ;-)
I find it a bit too 'loose' without sensitivities; but each to his/her own preference ;)
Good evening. Can you advise which of your videos to use for mapping the Hotas One with world update 6 on PC? Thank you
I don't believe I've made a Hotas One video for PC after WU6, but these setting I've shown here should be similar.
👍😊
How did you get the picture of the Joystick with key numbers to appear?
Hi mate, good tips there, which video explains setting up the external hat switch please?
Here you go: ruclips.net/video/zEZ1k-qCGLk/видео.html - always check my playlists if you're not sure where to look :)
@@Huddison thanks pal, very well explained 👍
I have been enjoying your videos.Like I said earlier I am only a month old to MSFS with an Xbox X and Thrustmaster Hotas One.I have mapped the sensitivities and those have stayed even after completely switching the Xbox and exiting the disc.Please bear with my inexperience and ignorance and guide me on the following:-
1/ Am I required to give a new name each time a map a button or can I assign all buttons perhaps copying your mapping and then assign just one new name as opposed to default settings.
2/ How do I create mapping for Reverse thrust and which button would be the most comfortable one during critical phase of landing,using rudder as well to keep the plane on centre line.
1/ If I follow you correctly: you only need to rename the profile once and then remap the buttons as you wish inside that new profile.
2/ I prefer 'Hold reverse thrust' when using the Hotas 1.
@@Huddison Pardon me.Didn’t understand “Hold Reverse Thrust”I mean which button/s to be used for mapping this action.
@@rashidfarookee7521 You will find that under Power Management/Throttle in Controls Options.
Which ever button you prefer and are not using.
Have you tried creating a new profile after changing the sensitivity? Basically copying your setup to a new profile?
I haven't tried that as yet.
Sensitivity settings should have been number 1 on their list. Just ridiculous.
I agree!
Did I hear you say you sometimes have a mouse attached? Is that to an Xbox? Enjoy your videos thanks.
Yes I use it in videos like this one: ruclips.net/video/PpuV6s-i6QA/видео.html
A generic WIRELESS mouse WITHOUT Bluetooth works great, and doesn't interfere with other devices attached to console. It'll come with a very small USB transmitter that plugs into the back of your xbox console. And I have a inexpensive wired USB keyboard that I plug into the front USB socket on my xbox. ALL work well together with no conflicts. Hope this helps😊
After watching Huddison I use a mouse on my xbox as well.Works great in the cockpit for buttons on the panel. Thanks for the channel!
Thanks for making this video, really appreciate it as a FS 2020 newbie. I am having trouble trimming. I press B2/B1 but when I release the flight stick, the plane doesn’t maintain attitude. It always goes nose down. Any ideas?
My next video will aim to help with this ;)
@@Huddison thanks. I look forward to it.
Is the video out yet ? I am struggling with the same problem as well :((
@@victoriatang9531 Here you go: ruclips.net/video/Km6d0oO6T0A/видео.html
Thank you !! I will look into it @Huddison
Sorry if it's a stupid question, but if you've moved your elevator trim to the joystick B1 and B2, what are you now using the rocker switch on the throttle for? Or did I miss something?
I generally don't have it set to anything in the C1-172, but you could assign left or right rocker to parking brakes.
@@Huddison Thanks, one more Q, and I think this is why I now have a bit of funny behaviour with the cockpit and external views. I can't seem to differentiate between "Joystick POV left/right etc" and just "POV (the one with the arrow symbol) left, right , up, down. If scanning for an input, what is the "POV ->" axis compared to the "Joystick POV" Up, Left etc?
@@konetampere Choose 'Select an input' just below scan for input and scroll down until you find your desired POV action.
Thengs agen for your video.Can you tell me how can i get Sim Update 6? is this automatically downlload and install to the Xbox series /s?
Yes it should automatically inform you that there is an update available.
If I understood this Hotas One well
completely replaced the game pad of Xbox.
With a keyboard a mouse and the Hotas One I execute all the commands in Xbox and the simulation ?
Yes absolutely, although understand that the Hotas one is pretty much used exclusively for flying in the simulator. The mouse will let you utilise/choose options in the main menu & game options etc.
Does anyone know if the f18e super hornet will have radar
How do you control the cursor?.
Hey I just got this for Christmas for my series x but it only works for about 30 seconds and when I start a flight then I have to start using a controller or un plug it and plug it back in just for it to only work for afew seconds again do you have any ideas as to why this happens thanks in advance.
Hmm not certain on this one. Come and join our discord: there are lots of users using the Hotas One and they might be able to offer some assistance (link in the description).
Hi . I don’t get the reverse axis option with my rudder axis. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. I’m using x box series S btw with hotas mouse and keyboard.
Do you have your rudders assigned to the twist axis on the joystick?
@@Huddison Hi. I’m not sure to be honest but I’ll have a look later. Can I just say I really appreciate your quick responses. Thanks a lot. As an aside, while taxiing if I twist the axis, the throttle kicks in ??? Anyway enough of me for now.
It seems that people who bought the bundle from MS at console launch may have been spared the sensitivity reset. For whatever reason, mine have persisted from the first day I set them.
Curious as mine will stay saved as long as the game stays in the Quick Resume state. The instant it completely closes then all senstivies are lost. I also assume you are referring to the Xbox and not PC as my PC doesn't have this problem.
@@ReggieRoss I would love to narrow it down somehow. Mine’s been reset several times. I do unplug my peripherals when I’m not playing FS, if that’s a variable that could matter.
Hi, can anyone help me how to map my toggle switch in order to pan smoothly around the cockpit in a way that it freezes when I move it right or left?
Come and ask this again in our Discord: discord.gg/xDKwFYDsZk
I just got the hotas yesterday for mfs2020, but to bad it doesn't work on default.. I need to remap everything first one by one😭😭😭
It shouldn't take you too long.
Hi ... On changing the settings to what you recommended I noticed some keys were already allocated to other inputs. Would that be a problem ?
Maybe if you post a full list of your Hotas inputs I know I'll be okay.
This video and my other: ruclips.net/video/Lf4y_Ke_iKo/видео.html - pretty much show all my assignments.
Will watch your excellent video. Just changed Trim Up to Prev and Trim Down to B5 as not assigned and easy to reach. Left all others alone for now.
On the Hat Switch on the Hotas how can I view rudder pedals and other lower controls
@@CanaryIrish You can have it set to free look mode and do it that way: ruclips.net/video/zEZ1k-qCGLk/видео.html
Thanks yet again
Still not saving sensitivity settings this is very annoying but probably easy to fix. Also ATC callsigns are still broken despite being on the patch notes.
Oh dear, hopefully patch incoming (as forever seems to be the case).
How do you get hat switch down to snap right to the instruments as you've shown here?
My most recent video explains it better: ruclips.net/video/yHbj4FeezmI/видео.html
@@Huddison Thanks, mate. Really appreciate it!
Am relatively new to MSFS, and your channel has been a go-to resource.
Just what a newbie like me needs!
Thanks for the interesting video. My problem, however, is not included here. Maybe you can help by answering my comment. I can't find a button for engaging the autopilot. Some planes don't have a switch for that, so I am at odds. Thanks a lot in advance.
Which aircraft are you having difficulty with? If the aircraft doesn't support AP, then I wouldn't advise forcing it.
@@Huddison It‘s the jbl but also the TBM. Matter of fact all planes without a dedicated button on the dashboard.
@@do47m You can still assign a button on your controller for Toggle AP master on/off & other AP functions to see how you fare.
Hi, does ANYONE know if the cheaper hotas X will work on series X ..? Thx
Unfortunately not; the controller has to be an Xbox specific/compatible controller to work.
will it allow multiple inputs Say B1+ B2, mine went back to the shop, drove me up the wall with lack of control of my controller.
Yes. At the suggestion of the Flight Sim School channel, I use B5 as a shift button to assign alternate functions to the other buttons. E.g. pressing the brake button applies the brakes, but holding B5 while pressing the brake button toggles the parking brake
How do i set it to panning in cockpitview instead of it just switching.
Check through my Hotas playlist, I do have a video or 2 on that subject.
Hello, I don’t know if you still read comments on this video or not, but I’m having a huge issue with my throttle on the Hotas One, when I put it to idle the game still gives out 50% thrust
Check the Discord on this, but have you got your throttle assigned to just throttle Axis (not 1,2 etc)?
@@Huddison What does that mean? When I check the sensitivity settings it’s called “L Axis 1” or something like that, and it only goes to 50% when the physical throttle is as far down as it goes
@@Huwarr Not the sensitivities - check under Power Management & see what axis your throttle is assigned to.
@@Huddison Power management is set to the throttle
Flight simulator doesn’t recognize my Hotus one being plugged in, any ideas?
What are you plugging it into, PC or Xbox? Ensure you have the switch (at the front of the unit) that says 'PC/Xbox' on the correct setting.
My MSFS sights in London and the points of interest are not the same as yours. My view of the city is unclear where yours is quite specific re buildings etc, AND some of the points of interest dont come up at all, such as Buckingham Palace etc. My buildings look quite generic and npot specific, like yours shows. I have the latest version MSFS 2020 so Im not sure what the issue is?
Check in General Options/Data that you have things like Photogrammetry & Online Functionality turned on - those are typically the culprits.
@@Huddison thank you so much from a sunny Cape Town SA
@@Huddison hi there, all the data connections are set to ON. Not sure what the issue is then?
@@glendamellet4313 Did you get the UK update from the Market place? It's free to download.
@@Huddison I’ll take a look as I think you’re right, I haven’t seen updates or downloaded any. Thanks so so much xxxx
Is anyone still having trouble with prop planes steering way off center (to the left for me) during take off. I basically have to keep my rudder twisted half way on the joystick to keep it centered.
Some one had similar issues in the Discord (check the description for a link).
I have this same issue on mine. Sometimes its so bad I can't keep my plane on the runway at takeoff. There is a thread about this issue on the msfs forums.
@@9powerslave I’ve been using AI assist on take off and actually it’s more realistic. It doesn’t steer 100% for you but just assists. You still have to steer and honestly seems more realistic than the current bug.
It's called "P" factor its because the downward moving prop blade takes a bigger bite of air causing the plane to yaw to the left.
@@buelliganx1 right, I know the logic but there is no way what I’m experience is realistic.
How do I unmap the previous button from the Xbox button? It keep pulling up my menu
I've not tried to unmap that one myself, but I would 'search by input' press that said button and clear the mapping.
@@Huddison the problem is that it pulls up the Xbox menu. I just unassigned it in the game, but I would like to be able to use that button
How do I see all the points of interest so far away please? I did the exact same set up and take off as you but mine only shows the 02. Thank you
I'm not quit sure what you mean - elaborate
Before you took off you could see the poi as hsbc, o2 etc mine just had the o2 only, I have checked the settings and changed it so will see if it makes any difference. Thanks for the video.
I'm not quite sure; I recorded this on the Series S, so it should be the same for everyone playing on Xbox - do you have The UK update installed?
I'm thinking of buying a second hand one of these but can i fly helicopters using it
Yes no issues.
I wish there was a way to make the throttle more sticky or have more resistance. I don't know if it's loose for everybody, but it is for me. You really can't rest your hand on the throttle cause it'll just move way too easy. At least it sticks in the middle position. Any solutions?
Check my community posts on my channel page.
I opened mine up the day I got it and filed down the 50% detent so it was a smooth motion from 0-100% thrust. Then I added an 8mm piece of plastic under the spring to act as a spacer to compress the spring rather than stretch out the spring and stop that floppy throttle issue. Been using it over a week like this now and it's fantastic 👌🏻
@@davidthomson6106 How do you get it to do that? My game still gives 60% thrust when I put my throttle to idle
Hi man - completely stuck now... Suddenly the axis on the back of the throttle has become the same as the twist on joystick... So I've essentially just randomly lost an axis and they're the same thing now.. I used to have trim back of throttle, rudder on the twist stick.. now I can't because they both register as the same axis now... Completely sudden and completely random , but I can't play now and I need help 😂 urgently!
Might be best asking in our Discord regarding this one: discord.gg/Ameu93sHfY
@@Huddison Hi Huddison, appreciate the reply and noted for future! I have solved the issue. You simply press the "home" button or the Xbox button on the joystick so that the light is OFF , and then it brings you back to having 5 axis.
does the track IR work with Xbox S?
Not as yet I'm afraid.
@@Huddison I wrote to Tr IR ages before the launch and they said no! It certainly would be of huge benefit especially as there is no VR!
@@timsmith5980 There are rumours of VR coming to Xbox.

Unfortunately the last update is trash, it dosnt even meet the minimum expectations from a very small software company
