first of all, i already recognized that i can click the trimming wheel and the wheel for the flaps inside the cockpit.and i think i found out which lever controls the prop pitch in the cockpit of the bf(the blue in the middle front).

but as its really hard or almost impossible to adjust them during a dogfight by clicking with the mouse, i wanted to know if somebody already managed to set them to keystrokes or maybe the mousewheel??

i know in which section the elevator trim is in the menu.but i cannot set it to my mouswheel.it seems that it doesnt recognizes it.i achieved it to set the trim to a hat switch on my joystick,but that allows me only to trim once.after that i have to use the mouse and click inside the cockpit on the trimming wheel.

yeah id love to know this too... cant for the life of me figure out where the proppitch command is in the "keys" section.. i found it in the AXIS section but i dont have a slider for it.

i dont know it either where the hell the prop pitch command is hiding in the menu.
but did you manage to set something to your scrolling wheel of the mouse?

How hard is it to learn russian? Gjeez if you buy the russian version because you want to play sooner then the next logical step would be to simply buy a russian course no? Then you will be able to play the original of DCS blackshark also :) Its a win win situation :)

Then you should have had your subject included with: btw I'm using russian version. If you notice then the last 5 replies all happenend in like 5 minutes. I only guessed you had the russian copy.

How can you expect us english buyers to comment on your thread? We don't have the russian version let alone the english version to compare with.

You shouldve posted this on the russian forum instead of here. I rather believe my comment was funny. It was at least intended with that respect. That you find my comment stupid has hurt my feelings and I will now and forever stop talking to you and lock myself in my room for 2 days... (untill IL2 comes out :) )

PUH!

For those that didn't find an answer to this, you can assign the rotators on the Saitek X52 throttle. I have mapped rudder trim, the mixture and prop pitch to mine. I would assume any HOTAS ie Thrusmaster and Logi G940 would be the same. :) If your using the RU version here are posts (http://simhq.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3247026/18.html) with translations/English equivalents.
