JackFlash Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 (edited) The Multi Function Button Box from Total Controls gives you a clear advantage in the skies. Designed with VR in mind it reduces the need for mouse inputs in DCS World. Featuring the most used functions from the F/A-18C Hornet Up Front Controller and the characteristic Data Control Switch from the F-16C Viper the Multi Function Button Box lets you focus on flying. It also features gear- and hook-handle, jettison button, seven light knobs, two rotary encoders with push function for the radios and two misc buttons that can be programmed to do whatever you like! See more at the official web page: totalcontrols.eu/ Follow on Facebook: facebook.com/totalcontrols First of all: thanks for your patience. We would love to have done this quite some time ago. But now the day has arrived. Tomorrow, the 12th of September, at 20.00 CET we launch! Be sure to check in early. There will be some great perks for the early birds.

BlacleyCole Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 (edited) If my guess about size is right the box is approximately the same size as the warthog throttle, correct? Have you thought about a forward mounting so the box can be angled in front of the wh throttle especially since the gear and hook handles are in thr angle forward panels of the f18 iirc?

Yes, it will be the same size as the TM WH throttle. We are looking in to a vertical mount of some sort.

Great. Your button box catched my eyes some time ago and i scratched it because of missing space on my rig. A vertical mount with different adaptors so it can be attached to various simrigs would definately bring back my interest on that box Phanteks EvolvX / Win 11 / i9 12900K / MSI Z690 Carbon / MSI Suprim RTX 3090 / 64GB G.Skill Trident Z DDR5-6000 / 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD / 2TB PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSD / 2TB SATA SSD / 1TB SATA SSD / Alphacool Eisbaer Aurora Pro 360 / beQuiet StraightPower 1200W RSEAT S1 / VPC T50 CM2 + 300mm extension + Realsimulator F18 CGRH / VPC WarBRD + TM Warthog grip / WinWing F/A-18 Super Taurus / 4x TM Cougar MFD / TM TPR / HP Reverb G2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
