hotas

Hey there, i recently just purchased the Logitech X52 Pro hotas system to use for Elite Dangerous. I already have the Thrustmaster 458 Spider Steering wheel that comes with the pedals, my question is: How can i use the pedals from my 458 as rudder pedals along with my x52 hotas. I’ve seen a...

Hi Commanders, as I encountered real troubles after purchasing, istalling software and connecting a PXN-Hotas (PXN 2219F / PXN19) - upon starting from Launcher Elite Dangerous did not even go to the Intro-Scene and rather crashed back to the Launcher - I finally found a workaround :) 1. If You...

Hello! Been slangin' a FDL since 2020, LOVE the game. I play in VR with HOTAS in a racing chair rigged to feel like a cockpit. (pretty sick, honestly) Moved a few times, haven't played in a year or so. I fired it up a month ago and my HOTAS is not recognized in the control profile menu. NOW...

Hello everyone, I just got a Saitekx52 pro throttle with a logitech3d pro joystick and I'm having difficulty getting the essential bindings down. I'm wondering if anyone who also uses this combo could provide me with their binds. or a similar one. Thanks

Hey all; I'm 2 years into building a full replica of the in-game joystick, flight panels & throttle; I have a build thread over in PC, ( https://forums.frontier.co.uk/posts/10169955/ ) but it's 6 pages long or so now and this will get buried in the thread, and I was wanting to get a bit more...

Greetings everyone, I have been facing an issue with the T16000 Hotas FCS (with TWCS) with TARGET profile enabled but not able to see this device in Elite Dangerous. I've bought a copy of ED from Steam, and I have followed all the possible instructions found on internet about this issue, but...

I have a thrustmaster t1600m and TWCS throttle. The t1600m has unfortunately developed the twist/yaw axis potentiometer issue it's notorious for (phantom yaw inputs). So now yaw on twist is unusable. The TWCS has a scroll wheel on it that I've now binded yaw to. Its a bit difficult to get used...

I just got the T.16000M FCS Space Sim Duo. I've tried following instructions, installed drivers and TARGET, reinstalled multiple times, I have the correct duo profile, and I've already learned not to install drivers with sticks plugged in. I've gotten one stick or another to work in game, but...

Hey there. I need some help making a decision, and also have a question or two about using the VKB Gladiator NXT Evo Omni Throttle (that's a mouthful). I have been thinking for a while to switch out my traditional throttle to either a VKB Onmi Throttle or possibly just a left hand Gladiator...

I'm currently playing using an old saitek cyborg 3d stick. It has a little throttle on the side, and does the job for regular flying. However, I'd like to try a bit more FA off... I'm wondering if an upgrade to a t flight hotas X would be worth it. My main issues with my current device: 1...

Cargo Scoop has a Button Mode modifier to allow press and hold to use, rather than toggle on and off. Others, for example Ship Spot Lights lack this Button Mode modifier. Why is this needed in more places? When using a HOTAS such as Warthog, many of the switches are On and Off toggles, On...

Hello all fellow Elite Dangerous gamers. I have a question about button bindings. I have a custom (made by me, myself and I) HOTAS controller, in which I have four on/off style switches with LED. These switches are currently configured so, that when they are on, the LED is on and windows sees...

Hello ! I'm new and totally getting addicted to Elite Dangerous, and as such I want to invest some hardware to improve my imerssion in this beautiful game. Per say, a trackIR and a pair joystick/throttle. But I don't know what to aim for, so I ask you who must be playing with your joystick since...

I have been messing with my newly acquired HOTAS and as expected it needs a lot of getting used to. One issue that i am finding particullarly difficult to get used to, is that i need to guess where the "0" is for the throttle. I was told that i'd get used to it, but now, after a few days i feel...

I've looked for anyone with similar issues on the Elite and VKB forums to no avail, so I thought to seek help here first. I recently purchased a VBK Gladiator NXT Premium Stick and their GNX SEM button box. The stick/box combo works great in other games such as DCS and Simple Planes, but I when...

I would love to see the option to have landing gear have a hold mode option as per cargo scoop. It would be nice to see this option on all of the buttons (is it possible to just allow this to be turned on for any binding?), or at least the functions in the ship tab panel. (external lights...

o7 - I have a HOTAS (Virpil CM3 and VKB Gladiator) and a USB XBOX controller plugged in directly to the PC but when I try to use the XBOX controller for walking around, it doesn't work. Elite doesn't seem to recognise the controller at all as I cannot assign axis or button presses either. I am...

Hi there, I have a small issue with rebinding some controls. I use a Thunderbird Warthog HOTAS. I try to put as much controls on it as possible. For that, I need to use button combos. I use the Joy 3 on the Stick as "Alt" for a lot of controls, for example Joy 3 + Joy 15 brings us External UI...

Hey all, decided to get into 3d printing and play about with Arduino's, and I also wanted a HOTAS for ED... So I'm building a :"as-close-as-I-can" HOTAS based on the in-game cockpit...I'll be doing the stick, throttle and the two panels you see in-between... So far, I've got my switches mostly...

Hi everyone! So I just bought the x52Pro and allready have problems with it which I can't find solutions for online on my one, so maybe we can solve this together! 1. The software I got from the logitech support page is increadible laggy and unuseable for the first 5 minutes after starting it...

So I have a question for anyone here that has had or does have a Thrustmaster HOTAS. Or if anyone here has had anything Thrustmaster in general. So here goes: I first got this game on XB1 back in April 2018. In May 2019, a good friend of mine who also plays Elite bought me a Thrustmaster HOTAS...

I used weights for sausages, € 2.50 from the hardware store, 20 weights. now the hotas weighs in total 1.85kg instead 1.1 and it is obviously MUCH more stable! as you can see from the photos, just unscrew the screws below, open it, and fill the empty spaces with the weights, glue them with hot...

See the title. In general it is almost impossible to get your hands on a HOTAS these days. (I do not want the older Saitek version.)

I am a recent convert to ”Newton’s Gambit” (full-time FA Off flying wherever possible), and would very much like to be able to save two sets of controls - my FA Off set [which relegates roll in favour of the other 5 degrees of freedom] and the more Newtonian set which more closely (although not...

Hi all, Question? I have ED and am happy with my current bindings However when I launch ED Horizons - it has different bindings ? ? ? how can I make them both the same without remapping.

thinking of switching to hosas. Would like to use twist axis on L stick as throttle and saw in a thread somewhere an adapter to angle the stick over at about a 45deg angle so that the twist is nearer to a motorcycle throttle than straight vertical. Can't find it anywhere now that I'm looking...

So, I figured this might be helpful for others when they get a new x52 HOTAS. Profile Here There's instructions there on how to download and use them in the software. Haven't tested with old software, just the new driver software that Logitech is hosting. The instructions are just how I get it...

I searched and found suggestions are around for five years. Elite is a game many of us playing with more or less complex HOTAS setups. Why there are still so many important bindings with toggle only? It's so sad we can't use reliable mappings on our HOTAS setups without hassle with voice attack...

Greetings Commanders, Version 5.02 now available to public. This is my full blown production script. Whilst it includes a BASIC setting you might be better served to check out the stand-alone BASIC version which does almost the exact same thing! Check that out here...

Hi, I use x52 pro hotas, and wanted to get away from using my keyboard. After a bit of googling I found out about joystick encoders sold on ebay. Spent 20 quid on an encoder, some buttons and switches, and a sheet of carbon fibre printed vinyl. Used some scraps of plastic sheeting I had to...

Hi Folks! First-time player, long-time idiot, here! I played the game on my PS4 and loved it! I even managed a decent little courier business for myself. Then I decided it was time to go all out (and I mean ALL OUT). I have bought all I need to make a computer desk in the form of a fighter...

Hello, I hope this is as helpful for someone else as it has been for me. I am a very new Elite Dangerous player, and like many, I grabbed myself a Thrustmaster T16000M HOTAS set, and went about configuring it. I had done my research, so I knew that it lacked a throttle axis center detent, but...

Hello one and all, lookin' for a little ED (PC) tech support... Been playing on and off these past 5 years, and earlier today I replaced my trusty but well worn TM T-Flight Hotas X with a shiney new TM T16000 and TWCS throttle. Spent the afternoon and evening getting set up, re-binding all the...

Last night I bought MechWarrior 5, I was excited since the last good mech game I played was MW4 Mercenaries in the mid 2000's. Anyway so I startup the game and begin setting up my hotas. It sees my joystick and throttle but not my rudder pedals, ok. It tells me I can directly write to the config...

Playing on PC I recently borrowed an xbox version t-flight x to test whether it would be worth buying one, I decided it was and purchased a Playstation version from ebay. I should clarify first that the xbox version worked perfectly, didn't even need to set it up. However with this new one the...

Here is a video of some oddities encountered in a Lagrange Cloud NSP, some technical, some possibly bugs? Or maybe they are real features? In the process of wandering around semi-aimlessly in search of life, the Betsy has finally arrived at the Codex entry for Lagrange Clouds in the Perseus Arm...

!Saludos! Soy nuevo en ED (primer juego en el que llevo 60 hrs., y me sigo sintiendo nuevo). Hice esta hoja de cálculo para el T16000M HOTAS. Lo que les puede ser útil no son tanto los atajos de teclado, sino la hoja de cálculo en sí, para que anoten los suyos. Si no pueden crear una copia...

So I need a squad for general faffery. I don't do pvp much and just want a community to get back into the game. Also, I need hardware advice. Should I get an x52 HOTAS or x56 for $30 more? I do VR and need something better than KB/M.

EDRefcard doesn't support this but I like the idea, so does anyone have a fillable reference card or even a largish-size drawing of the Thrustmaster Cougar HOTAS that I can manually complete?

Hello FDevs, A simple idea that would significantly increase number of functions that player can assign to his/her HOTAS setup (we never have enough buttons for our needs): make every button double-function: short click will work as it works now long click (holding button for 1s or something...
