August 20, 20205 yr Thanks. Works good, how do you adjust null zone and sensitivity? Also using the hat switches to move the view around the cockpit. Thanks again! Edited August 20, 20205 yr by Skyseek

I have reduced the sensitivity a little (between -15% and -30%) everywhere. But overall I'm still figuring out what the optimal setting is. Maybe I will also try this: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/581210-how-to-make-pitch-and-yaw-control-less-twitchy/ Edited August 20, 20205 yr by spakus

August 20, 20205 yr I am astounded to read all that is in this topic. The age of flight controls... Versus I7 and I9 processors, 1, 2 and soon 3 series GPUs, Multiple monitor setups, elaborate home cocppitsd, VR, all of that. And aged design flight controls? For many many years when friends asked me for advice when buying a computer, whether desktop or laptop, my answer was to evaluate the keyboard and mouse. Those are what you touch, use, and rely on to get things done.. Flight controls are just that to sims.

August 21, 20205 yr I have the Eclipse yoke and the Logitech Pro Pedals. I have both working but I am wondering if anyone is able to get elevator trim to work via the wheel on the front of the yoke? I can map to the hat, but would much prefer the wheel. The sim doesn't seem to recognize it as a scrolling axis but rather shows it like a button press. Thanks.

There is no axe on this wheel on the front of the yoke, but two buttons actually. AFAIR, they could be mapped to Elev. trim Up and Down - the same way that in FSX, X-Plane, etc.
August 21, 20205 yr Anyone have a delay on CH Pro pedals between physical pressing on toe brakes and simulator reaction? About second or more.

I'd like to find an aircraft that shows the toe brake with full animation. For me it SEEMS immediate, but it also doesn't seem to move much. Anyone have a plane where you can see some sort of full range of motion? i7 8700K @4Ghz, EVGA RTX3080 Ultra, 32GB RAM, Two 2K displays. Alpha Yoke, Bravo Throttle Quadrant, CH Pedals.

August 21, 20205 yr They are supported as people have mentioned, but you have to assign the axis for each function. I was a little annoyed at first that such popular classic controls so many people have we not auto-configured, but really it only took about 10 minutes to set up both, so not to worry, it takes a minute or two to figure out the configuration interface but is pretty straightforward

It is NOT an axis, but actually when the wheel turns to a direction a button in the corresponding direction is pressed. So there are actually four buttons - two for the vertical wheel and two for the horizontal wheel. I disliked it enough to invest in a dedicated trim wheel instead.

Yikes, I have no idea why they would do it that way. Makes it completely useless at least in FS 2020. Thanks for confirming so that I am not awaiting a fix...
