question FSX Key Configuration/Programming

[calibra2001 0]

Hi guys,

 

Sorry if this has been asked before.
I've recently ripped apart a xbox360 wired controller and decide to make a switch panel using all the circuitry involved in the controller, all is looking good. My plan is to start with Cessna 172 but how do can i program the switches. I havent got all my resistors yet, so i haven't started trying. I was thinking of FSUIPC but it appears not all of the switches ie (Beacon Land Taxi Nav Strobe Pitot & Fuel Pump) are listed. Is there any way i can do this (maybe LINDA)?

 

Thanks

Hi,

Being new here I struggled to find my way the forum mentioned above, but I'm learning all the time, I think I found my answer FSUIPC and LINDA is required.

I did find that FSUIPC was ideal. I also added a second usb keyboard& remapped the keys using FSUIPC as well as the sim's deafault assignments. I grouped the keys & colour labeled them. Do not forget that this will duplicate the main keyboard, so a bit of thought is needed. In actual fact, you only need a few actual sim key assignments on the main keyboard. The majority goes onto the 2nd keyboard.

Great fun, we found, & it adds to the immersion factor.
