Hey CAP you forgot the G-Limiter override switch which even though you won't use it much if ever is just important as chaff and flare because it may be the difference of slamming into the ground after a dive or dodging a missile or turning faster than a bandit in a merge if you're going fast (watch out for G-Loc just like in the F-15C)

I’m having issues with pitch trim. I can troll using the hat switch no problem, but trimming up and down with the hat is not working using these controls.

God I love that we have nearly the same throttles. I use an X56 as well, however I have the version made by Logitech. They added a few buttons, namely the 2 way switches on the right of the throttle are 4 way switches on this one, and... It sounds like you don't have any toggles?

Anyway man as much as I love our similarity for the ease of learning, it'd be awesome to see you get that winwing and give a review of it!
Hey Cap Have you tried binding what I can best describe as the volume turn knows on the x56 throttle in DCS? I was hoping to bind these as much HUD brightness with no luck.
-love your videos. I have a CH throttle and stick...no rudder pedals. I have tried different axis curves but find the Hornet susceptible to pitch oscillations, and not a solid control feel. Is this something normal for the plane? Would a Hotas setup make it handle different?...thanks
Is there a way to make the game settings to be simplified enough that the majority of the game is HOTAS controlled? I was thinking about getting this, and VR, and it would be weird transitioning from stick to VR controllers to press cockpit buttons.
I'm playing VR, waiting for the finger controllers, but at the moment I'm using a quest touch controller that's always at my right lap. It's not ideal, but it's not that awful either. A lot of stuff you can control with hotas, especially during action I don't find myself needing the controller.
How do you set up a Thrustmaster T.Flight HOTAS X? It's only got the single Thrust column on theleft and not nearly as many input options overall from what I can tell. If it's insufficient for DCS, I'd like to know what to replace it with before I dive in and get started with the DCS in the first place (doing pre-buy research to make sure I'm prepared and not wasting my time, I hope you understand).
I am using mine for 4 years almost. It's even sufficient for A10C. I was like you that I do not have enough buttons. But then I found out about modifiers. I am able to program around 80 commands
@@lukasplsko How exactly did you manage that? I've never heard of these "modifiers" before, what are they exactly? Are they expensive? Either way, where can I find them? Are they universal with this flight stick over any game/sim, or will they only work with sims like DCS? (Sorry for all the questions, I want to make sure it's worth it.)
@@VarietyDrifter1 It is just a control setup right in DCS options menu. No money needed. Go to Options --> Controls --> select your aircraft (You have to set them individually for aircrafts you are playing) --> and down at the bottom line you should see "Modifiers". Click on it, choose your joystick and choose your buttons you want to use. For example I use buttons 3, 9, 10 (Button up and behind the joystick and the two buttons at the back of the throttle). Now if you set it up you are able to use one button for 8 commands (Now that's a lot). Let me take "button 1" (Gun trigger) for example. Button one I am using for gun trigger obviously.

Great video and thanks for sharing! Have you ever had a problem of a 'ghost input'? i.e. random commands getting sent through the left HOTAS without actually using them? Sometimes random things will happen when flying if I have too many of the inputs binded...
For me, if I go in F18C Sim, and axis commands, it just shows the camera and tdc commands, but on F18C Game, it shows all the flight controls on axis, but don't work.
hello sir, want to say thank you for all your videos and tutorials. You are doing a great job. I just picked up the x-56 hotas and downloaded the key binding profiles (from the link above) for the f-18 but it seems like the left and right .lua files contain the same bindings. The throttle is being programmed with stick movements like pitch & roll. Please advise.
DCS is sending me nuts. My Saitek Pro Flight X56 Rihno Throttle is controlling my roll Axis. I have cleared the Category for it. It zero commands in the "Axis Command" and "All Command" sections, but still. Is there a file somewhere else on my computer that it could be getting these commands from? I would like to lock an AMRAAM of some sort onto it (Delete it). Please help.
Very frustrating trying to decide on HOTAS to buy and use. I purchased a Thrustmaster T.Flight last year, which is complete crap, but the X56 Rhino has tons of bad reviews regarding quality. I need a new setup but spending the money for a Warthog or WinWing is never going to be an option.
I have the thrustmaster t16000 ( I think that's what its called, its close to that). I have the stick and throttle. It could use a few more buttons, but for getting started, it's worked great! I think i spent around $140 usd. Give it a look.
Watching this with my goddamn Logitech ""Dxtreme"" 3D ""Pro""... Have a 25 unit deadzone and no rudder pedals. Boy do I have to spend some money to enjoy this aircraft...
I have the Logitech "EXTREME 3d Pro" that I got used for 15$, retail is 40 I think. And I only needed a deadzone of 2-5, could've even gone without it but just in case. Using my steering wheel (Formula force EX from 2005, also like 5-15$ used these days) pedals for rudder pedals, since they're literally 1-1 identical x_x Only issue is that the pedals plug into the steering wheel, and the steering wheel plugs into the pc, so I have to have my steering wheel lying on the ground all the time. But overall for 15$ the game is over playable, and a noticaeble upgrade would cost me at least 500$ for trackIr, a decent joystick and HOTAS (the 3d pro only has a small nob for throttle)... And that's some good value for ~30$ if you ask me :3
any chance you'd be able to rehash this FA-18C with the logitech x56 HOTAS? I downloaded your files for it but am overwhelmed with learning which commands do what. I'll gladly give you a tip on paypal or venmo for your work. I just bought this HOTAS and can't wait to get the learning curve out of the way
You can still play ok, might need to click on the throttle (or use keyboard shortcuts) during cold start, but otherwise it shouldn't be that much of an issue. It's nice to have feature, for sure, but I'd you're starting, I don't think it's that crucial.
@@roteroktober360 Thats where the arcade jumps in. Otherwise I can just tell you. Build or get a button box :) Even with the X56 i am going to do that. I use my streamdeck i have anyway with simdeck as UFC Button box for the numbers, clr ent and the first three options on the right. So i dont need to click that all the time. Also I got myself the cougar pack wich is literally an mdi without the screen in the middle. but all the buttons around. that helped me a lot. Almost dont use mouse or keyboard anymore apart from some very few things
it would be awesome if i could find a panel with 2x2 and 3x3 button squares on it to have all the TMS, TDC, Coolie, etc. switches, just having random buttons on a panel is barely an upgrade
I have a big issue. In settings everything Is bind And in mp it works just perfectly fine, but in singleplayer(the missions you have included) it just does what it wants. Anyone else has this issue or know how to fix it?

Quick Question, if you are using your POV Hat switch for Sensors, how do you look around if you don't have a VR or Tracker IR?
Helpful cause i just got the joystick today
Have you ever had to trim your left and/or right wings? I’ve got them mapped also but I’ve never used them.
ya, if you fire a missile from one side then you become lop-sided. I think I'm right in saying that?
I’m having issues with pitch trim. I can troll using the hat switch no problem, but trimming up and down with the hat is not working using these controls.
Honestly, i find trying to bind all these buttons more intimidating than learning the aircraft itself
Yeah....I'm very jealous of people who own 1:1 replica cockpits. :D
Clickable cockpits are nice in that you don't have to remember most of the stuff, just flick it in the cockpit.
I actually started with binding only the keys I need to take-off/landing, then gradually add them as I need. It seems work fine.
I'm surprised Cap doesn't use modifiers to increase the number of binding he can fit on his hotas, I have 3 modifier key for a total of approx 150 possible button bindings and never have to use my keyboard.
which buttons are you using as modifiers?
How and explain please
Thanks Cap and have a Safe 2020 !
Auto start & stop is for the engines right?
It starts the entire plane systems also
6:14 can't seem to see auto start for some reason
im guessing its just "automatic startup procedure"

it would be awesome if i could find a panel with 2x2 and 3x3 button squares on it to have all the TMS, TDC, Coolie, etc. switches, just having random buttons on a panel is barely an upgrade
@@roteroktober360 Well I even found a better way to use the streamdeck. Check this out: www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3303670/

I wonder why ''(You must own minimum 3 DCS WORLD modules/planes if you want to fly)''?
Well it comes with two modules and this is the FA18… which would make 3. I wonder if that is what you and him are referring to.
Can u please make a new video
Could you please share your profile, please. I've got the X-56 as well. Thanks.
