You can also choose a modifier on your controller and double the number of commands available. I use the pinky paddle on the Warthog stick as my modifier. I also mounted a multi gesture touchpad in front of my throttle so I can perform any 3 button mouse function just by reaching my fingers forward with my hand resting on the throttle. Simple and unintrusive.

HomeFries's TM Target Profiles for the Warthog and Cougar accomplish all items quoted below and more. They work great in VR and I never have to take my hands off the HOTAS while flying. They are available for almost all DCS aircraft---even the A4E Community Mod. Each joystick button can have several different functions.

Tell me if this is already been said or is in the pipeline but if you bring up the comms menu with the Warthog comms switch, is it possible then to use the up and down function on that button to move up and down the menu structure? Then when you want to select the appropriate command, you could press the comm button inwards. That to me would be the next step up from the mouse clicking.

 

I have mouse wheel/buttons mapped to my HOTAS, but I prefer moving the cursor with my head. It is faster and kinda more natural, you just look at the switch you want to use and the cursor is there.

 

How do you use the emulated mousewheel ?

I can click in switches, but on analog controls, there is no way i find to move them :(
