rud Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 My slider still works reasonably well. Sure it's a bit shaky sometimes but it usually stops when i move it a little forward and find a stable spot. But the scroll wheel is pretty unreliable for me. I use it as boat switch and AP mode selector and have to turn it a couple of times until it registers. And the rotaries are completely broken. Have to have most of the range as deadzones and just set them up as bands to simulate button presses. Yeah, i have to upgrade soon :joystick: Here's a good way to fix that using the in-game settings: http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=1241264&postcount=7 I'm pleased that since I moved to a TM Warthog I've got a nice steady zoom slider without needing to resort to this. And of course I'm using TrackIR for leaning not zooming. As an aside, I think a lot of complaints about small HUD font size would go away if more people leaned backwhen they zoom in.

sniperwolfpk5 Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 rud nice find. I think these dead zones will work well. I didn't tried yet but it seems it will work Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.

Eight Ball Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 I use Mic Switch on HOTAS for zooming purposes when it comes to A-10C to gun better. Mic Forward: Zoom In Mic Aft: Zoom Out Same here. I'm surprised how unpopular this method is. I personally find it a lot more convenient to be able to zoom without moving my hand from the throttle.

sniperwolfpk5 Posted December 12, 2014 Author Share Posted December 12, 2014 After a lot of different solutions finally I found a really nice working solution for both leaning and zooming both with tracker (TrackIR or FTNoIR) z-axis. DCS World give your really nice feature which I didn't try before which is modifier with switch/latch option. What i did is Create a modifier with switch option. I used Scroll Lock as switch/Latch modifier as it is not used If you like lean by default then use z-axis for lean without modifier Then create zoom z-axis with modifier that you have created above What is the plus point now you just toggle scroll lock button which will switch your z-axis to either zoom or lean. Note: This technique don't interfere with your other controls that you set on HOTAS. I tested it with Huey I updated the first post for new comers. Win10, Intel 3rd Gen.
