Mezsh Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Just a quick question: should both the collective and the throttle be mapped to the HOTAS Warthog throttle? for some reason both are mapped to my throttle. Is this correct, or should it just be the collective, and then throttle is automatic and not needed to be bound to the warthog throttle? cheers in advance.

Richard Dastardly Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I guess you don't *have* to map the throttle - most of the time it's going to be in one place. I have mine mapped to the left warthog throttle for lack of anything else useful to put there, occasionally I'll drop it to idle if I'm sitting around waiting for someone but mostly it's just shoved forwards.

hornblower793 Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 +1 for this, although to make my life more entertaining I have inverted the throttle and collective so I have to pull them back towards me - always good fun in the first flight after a jet....

I just invert the collective, which makes flying a Harrier after a helicopter interesting at times...

Kestrel Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I map the Ka-50 throttle(s) to the 'Flaps' switch on my Warthog Throttle. Makes it very intuitive and easy to move up and down between the preset throttle positions (idle-med-auto-max). The throttles tend to stay in 'auto' when airborne, so others may find a better use for this switch. I lock the two Warthog throttle levers together and use these as the Collective. 8700k, 1080Ti, 16GB 3200 RAM, Warthog Hotas, MFG Crosswind Pedals, Rift CV1, Obutto R3volution Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
