Request

Post by Raven » Wed Apr 11, 2007 1:36 pm

As I continue to engage and enjoy the post here and the online experiences (thanks to very friendly reception from everyone) I have a nagging issue I wondering if some one as the answer to.

My Tracker IR is ordered

So with that in mind and my old MS Sidewinder Percision Pro, does anyone have an example of the ultimate keyboard mapping. I am getting boggled up with what should be my best key sequences and now I've just read where I will also need some hotkey sequences for TeamSpeak.

If this is already here on the site please point me to it.

Just thought I'd ask may make a big difference.

Thanks all

Here's my current keyboard set up.

Glad I could help,

Thanks Falcon ](*,)

Well..... at least you guys will know that if I disappear for awhile it will be because I missed the "E" key and accidentally hit the "W".

That cant be your keyboard Falcon, There is no mention of sheep or ferrets.

I would recommend that you build up your own profile over time that suits you Raven.

Assigning mix and pitch keys

Since most flyers have a Joystick with throttle I would suggest:-

Prop pitch Alpha pad numbers 1 to 0 for 10% to 100% in 10% increments

Mixture Alpha pad number combinations 12,23,34,45,56,67,78,89,90,0-, for 10% to 100%
These are the custom settings I used before I cleaned the charity shop out of old joysticks.

I also have select engine 1 to 6 on number pad/enter
centre view num pad 5 and assigned centre TrackIR #pad 5 (key not locked in TIR setup)
_____________________________________________________________

For TS I've grouped everything on the num pad again-

Ctrl/1 2 or 3 = red green or blue

Alt/ 1, 2 ,3 =green 1 2 or 3
Alt 4, 5, 6 = red 1 2 or 3
Alt 7, 8, 9 = blue 1, 2, 3
