Thought i'd post this over here too
I got an X52 and i've had it for a week now, i like it alot! The twistystick is done well, lots of resistance is needed so you won't apply rudder accidently (like my previous stick) However it's quite difficult to use rudder, elevator and aileron at the same time with only 1 hand.
That "luftwaffe flying" constantly applying rudder to fly straight is very hard. Most of the time when the elevator is trimmed right the ball is centered anyway, but somestimes not...
how do you do this without pedals?
Another question, i read the X52 Pro has 'stops' in the throttle at 20 and 80% I have the regular X52 and mine has these 'stops' too, is that something new? i thought the X52 didn't have them...
no biggie, just wondering if they changed it.
I set mine up like this.
stick:
upper rotary: up and down = prop pitch & left and right = mixture
lower rotary: up and down = FOV zoom in and out & left and right = normal view and gunsight
trigger 1 & 2 = MGs and Both
C = cannon only
B = Shift F1 center gunsight
FIRE = bombs
A = rockets
pinkie + FIRE = Eject
throttle:
Big rotary = rudder trim
small rotary = elevator trim
Hat up and down = flaps
D = map
Land and take off mode
scroll wheel = press = gear, up & down = manual gear up & down
Hat = up and down = flaps, left right = lock tailwheel and chocks
E = engines
D = wheel brakes
stick:
A = left engines
B = right engines
FIRE = all engines
in IL2 joycontrol i have throttle aileron and elevator at all 100s
rudder is 0-100 in linear pattern
elevator trim is 0-60 in curved pattern
rudder trim is 0-100 in curved pattern
Please share how some of your key settings ?
Is there a way to make the software automatically load your profile?
