CAP... I would like to take this opportunity to say "THANK YOU" for your eagarness and your unwavering help you give to our DCS community. You are truly a good person. You have save me so much time and research which is truly appreciated. Thanks again.
That's a nice thing to say, thanks!
@@grimreapers 2 years later, you're still coming in clutch. thanks for you service!
2 years and 7 months after that......hope there still there cos my shrewdly purchased new x56 comes at the end of the week....I hope there still there now your a winwinger
It’s 2024 and I’m still using this. I love you bro.
I tried it to my X-55 since I couldn't find any mapping profiles. It worked beautifully. Thank you so much!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! You help so many people enjoy the game.
Pleasure
I know this post has been around forever but for someone that has recently discovered DCS world and fell in love your key-maps has been a god send. Could you please do one for the AH-64 using x56 hotas. Mann that would be awesome. I know you have a collective and everything now but I’m balling on a budget. I have held off playing that module because I haven’t spent the time to map and f16 f14 and a10 have been time consuming. Haha. Love your videos btw. They have been my tutorials for everything.
you're a legend for this, I don't even have the X-56 but I wish more players in the community were this helpful instead of just saying FiGuRe iT oUt yOuRseLf....i'm surprised I haven't been able to find part of the community for just sharing keybinds for each specific throttle/stick/plane
This video may be a couple of years old, but it's one of the most important ones I have found!! you are certainly "Super-Cap" - Many thanks sir!
Just done a new one, will release vid soon.
thank you SO much for this, just bought the game, and was worried i was in over my head, this made it so easy, well done mate
Thank you so much! I am very excited that my X56 will be delivered in a few days. Thanks to you, I can now do DCS right!
Thanks for this...I recently bought an X-56 just for DCS. There are some FC3 aircraft I haven't even looked at yet because I hadn't found the time to set up the controls. No excuses now. Cheers.
Now I'm keeping my fingers crossed that someone will post an X-56 profile for the AH-64D. ;)
CAP, thanks for this video and your tutorial series and guides. I'm new to DCS with aspirations of getting a Logitech X-56 (if they ever come back in stock) to more closely follow your tutorials.
i'd highly recommend them! i got real lucky and got one for christmas and its great
Don't have the same HOTAS - but now kind of wish I do..... Cap, the most helpful guy on UA-cam!!!! Best, Pete.
I understand I'm late to the party here but I just wanna point out....pitch and roll for the Su-25T is currently bound to both throttle pitches and left/right thrust are bound to the joystick pitch and roll axes.
If your goal has been to make me hate watch you play and do it better myself, you're accomplishing that.
4 years ago and still helpful to new players...
Thank you so much Reaper, it's a really helpful download for my x56!
Extremely useful IF you have the X56.
I know at least one of the other GRs use the Thrustmaster Warhog HOTAS. Are they willing to share their setup files because configuring the HOTAS, Pedals and TrackIR for every single aircraft is a true PITA?
Keep up the good work on the videos and also your live Twitch streams. Best resource on DCS there is!
Thank you soo much watch your vids all the time and get great enjoyment out of them bought the X56 and am trying it out for the first time today. Thanks again.
THANK YOU !! so much Cap. Wish I would have came across this vid days ago. HOTAS should at least send you a new model controller. You have probably made them quite a few bucks just on the x-56 alone. You sold me on It bro. Just setting it up has been a pain because understanding and remembering all the abbreviation, Weapon's N systems and understanding there functions are and how they work are all new to me, and having to map them out is so difficult for someone new to dcs.
Glad you did this! I have followed your vid for the A10-C and then for some reason if I increased the throttle or decreased it, the plane was also rolling left or right and the zoom knob was slowing the engine! LOL!!! I must have binded something to something else by mistake so guna use your files now! :) I want to join the Grim Reapers at some point when I have more practice in! I have a VIVE and now an x56 (tried to follow your A10 vid with a hotas X and ran out of buttons half way through!) lol! I am an Emergency services worker so as you can imagine in this current Covid world I am a bit busy! I cant wait to have more time to practice! give you a run for ya money in the Huey! ;)
is the a list that i can print out that has the key mapping to glance at while playing?
Hey there cap long time watcher of your channel got myself a x-56 as well just download your controls for helicopters just wanted to say thank you for your hard work in doing those
Thank you very much for your effort, sharing all this with us. Just downloaded the P-47 map, very cool. Much appreciated
thank you form the bottom of my heart. I do not know what i did but i lost all my keys etc to my first new plain the harrier, i know its hard but back when i had hair, i played a sim back on the old acorn till the tape broke so i love her
Thanks so much for this - !!! Love content like this that fully explains and provides all the tools needed.
hi
this is exactly what i'm looking for but for Thrustmaster hotas warthog;) if you have a friend who interests me a lot
your channel is awesome Thank you
Loving the videos Cap, I have subscribed :) Just getting started in DCS. This is going to cost me money!! :)
Welcome to the family.
You Sir.. are fantastic! Thank you
Thank you, it was a great help.
So, thanks for the key profiles and the tutorial but nothing change in my key setup…
The X56 configure gave me 2 columns one throttle (left) & one stick (right)automatically.
Which worked with the download Grim Reapers Left HOTAS Right HOTAS files.
BUT with TrackIR running; in configure the Throttle & stick swap over places? no idea why (with TrackIR new right hand column)
So to load left & right files wont work. Would it not be better to name them Throttle HOTAS, & Stick HOTAS, rather than Left & Right.?
Thank you so much for this!
Thanks for this Cap. Never knew you could load profiles INDIVIDUALLY for each Hotas device & keyboard. I assumed it was just one file with it ALL in, or at least that is what seems to happen for my Warthog Stick/Throttle/Rudder/Keyboard setup. I only ever load the ONE profile and it brings in everything, All modules, all devices. Never actually understood how the mapping works anyway, since I find EVEN when the Open Beta and Release versions are fully in line I cannot copy my Open Beta profile lua files into the Release version. If I do I just get garbage. I have to set up the profiles individually for each version. Maybe trying distinct profile for each HOTAS device will solve the problem ! Experimentation time .
i downloaded the f16 pack but it does nothing for me
Hey guys, my name is Russ from Daytona Beach Florida area. I am having trouble with my thrust master warthog stick throttle and rudder peddles. I have 58 hours of trying to get these devices working with DCS to no avail. I have watched every video and followed the instructions to what I think is the T. My pc I spared no expense and built a top of the line gaming computer with all the best components for flight simulation and DCS. I need help with sinking the flight controls to the aircraft. When I load all the flight controls to lets say the Wart Hog moving right down the list command by command being very careful to not overlook anything I still am missing something. When I go to fly the controls have jumped back to this glitch ware the rudder pedals are running the throttle and the throttle is running the rudders. I go I and make sure the commands are in without sharing but to no avail...Can you guys help me!!!!!????? I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game 3 times and downloaded the drivers from trustmaster and nothing seems to do it I'm missing a step but I don't know what it is.... HELP!
Granted I haven’t experimented yet, but how do the x56 profiles overlay on an x52? If there are fewer switches, how does it decide which functions to omit?
Hello, have you tried it on the x52?
Thank you so much for this CAP it was a massive help. Still struggling a bit with the Idle and afterburner detent but it helped a lot . Keep up the good work
You sir are a legend! Thank you kind sir!! Subscribed!
I just ordered my x56 rhino can’t wait
Thank you so much for doing this.
Hi Cap, I found your google drive map, but... Any chance you will ad a HOTAS config for the AH-64D?
thanks so much really helped
Excellent video. I have this set and tried the a4 profiles but once importing the throttle profile only thing I can do is zoom. Nothing else responds especially throttle handles. Perhaps I need to manually set?
I followed these and used the control maps. But on the F-18c the throttle controls the stick and the stick controls nothing. Will try again.. to make sure i have not got the configs the wrong way around.😁🙏
same here, did you figured out why?
Thank you!
Thanks Cap! Good stuff.
I have a problem: I have done your setup for the F-14, F-5, KA-50 and F-15 via your videos. I also have the X56 Rhino.
My problem is, that every time I launch DCS all joystick settings are blank. How do I save these settings in DCS?
Or do I have to manually reload these control setups every time I start DCS??
Cheers
You are the BEST!
Hi, got the x56 today all case are grey and it say's "no commande available for this device", can't bind anything. Did not find the solution on google :/ Thx
Never seen this before. Did you buy it new? Does it work on other games?
@@grimreapers yep new on amazon. Recognized good on X56 HOTAS software
You sir, are a god.
Just bought it because of you lol
Thanks you so much mister.
OMG thank you so much!
Nice thanks for these
Thanks a ton!!!
YOU ARE THE BEST THANK YOU OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Been out of the scene for awhile but since the F4 Phantom release any plans on doing a keyboard/Hotas map for the X-56?
Wish there was an image map for each of these so we could have a reference image up on another screen or something
How to split the HOTAS into two different columns (Left & Right HOTAS) in DCS? .. My X52 Pro only show one column, and expect that doesn't differ that much from the X56 in config?
same problem
You are a Lifesaver!
Thank you so much for these! Is there not one available for the AH64? I saw youve flown that too i think?
I have a Saitek X55... which is the same product... just from before Logitech bought them and changed the lights. Is it possible to make this work with it?
Does this include all the curve setups? Like the ones you did on the F16 playlist for example...
i wish you could do this for the X52 to
It kind of works, but didn’t seem to have any weapon slew control for the IR when I tried saving the profile to my x52
Hey Sir thanks for this! Just one question, does this also works for Flight Simulator using an X-56 Joystick?
Hello Gr community!
are you using the F-15C key mapping for the F-15E?
Because the only download mirror for the F-15 is the C variant and not the E
Cap question, I downloaded the f16 profile. Seems to be working ok but the engine powers down with no notice, and idea. Possible linked to throttle? I have redone loaded multiple times
Cap, By left do you mean throttle? or are you using a 2 stick setup? I figured that you meant throttle but just making sure because a lot of people are using 2 sticks instead of a true HOTAS.
I'm not sure what I screwed up, but my mouse can no longer be used to quickly scan around the inside of the cabin. What is the name of the function that allows me to use the mouse to look around the inside of the cabin? So I can remap it to the mouse...
I'm having trouble trying to map all the switches on the x56. Mind you, I have zero experience with PC gaming but I would love to fly and learn with you guys.
This is really cool. But where is the AH-64D profiles? I can''t fly the thing it just spins out of control. With the X-56
is there planned to be one for the DeHavilland B-35 Mosquito?
thanks but the pov sets are weird in the F18 f16 and A10
I ordered this hotas after I saw this video. First want to say thank you but I also want to ask the comment section after you import these to the game do I just plug in my rudder pedals and they work or does that need a programed file or bind as well? Brand new to DCS/ flight sims and just looking for some help thanks in advanced
I’m having a throttle issue, my throttle isn’t recognised while trying to map functions. Am I missing something?? I’m using a Logitech X56
I know the Warthog is expensive, but once you get it you realize how bad the X56 really is. The only nice thing about the X56 is all of the switches on the throttle.
i like it
@@seancampbell6904 I use to also, until I used the Warthog. It was like going from a toy to a real joystick. Also I did not have to lube my shaft anymore, lol.
One question ok maybe 2…
1- can i use the joyC stick to control pilots head? How?
Hey there cap! I'm running into an issue here. The profiles (In general) won't apply once I select it. No buttons change or get added.
Kind regards
Nils
Hey I dont have a load or save profile button. Looking in settings etc but still cant find any reference to it. Anyone able to help?
Hi Cap. I have the X56 and I am wondering as a newby to flight sims, would these bindings be ok for Il 2 Sturmovik ?
I guess try it? See what happens.
What is the mode switch used for?
Not sure if you read these or not as it's been a long time since you made this video. I recently purchased the X56 HOTAS and run windows 11... Do I need some sort of driver or an installation for this? They say there is no update for windows 11 at this point but also doesn't direct me to install using windows 10...
im using the x-55 its damn near the same thing the only difference is the button on the stick where your thumb rests isnt a joystick
You are a legend sir 🫡
Is the left Saitek the throttle? and right the stick?
Way cool and thanks big time! I know it must be something simple but for the life of me I cannot get to the page where your hotas maps are. I watch the video but the list of links with maps at the bottom of the list elude me. I've spent a day and a half trying to get to that link and being new to DCS I don't want to bug folks unnecessarily. Don't know what else to do. Can you help? Thank You!
i get red exclamation point when loading in profiles in specific nws button and flare and chaff buttons idk why
I have a question . The R.Alt and C buttons are removed everywhere, the mouse symbol is removed and the pilot's head moves with the mouse jerk. I changed this button and after that it didn't work anymore. I had to set the whole setting to the default mode, but it doesn't work again!!!
pls help XDDD
Any chance to get a picture of the mappings?
Hey Cap, sorry for resurrecting an old video. Do you have a picture that shows the HOTAS mapping? I am more of a visual learner, because im stupid.
I don't think so sorry
Hey just curious but how do you get it to show all controls and not all except axis?
Tried downloading for f-15e. Is 8t the same as f-15c??
It doesn't work for me
I cannot load in profile
Does anyone know where to get the 64bit drivers for the X56 HOTAS? I'm win 7 & when I ran the 32bit download it says I must have the 64bit & I cant find one in the Logitech downloads, any advice please?
To answer my own question; eventually found one at SOFPEDIA Logitech "X56 Space Joystick Driver 8.0.116.0 64-bit"
Here you go sir: support.logi.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360024844133--Downloads-X56-Space-Flight-H-O-T-A-S-
@@Bronlund2000 I went there first, that is only 32bit, that was the problem, I needed 64bit.
Will you do the AH-64D i realy like your Cap's key ! :)
I followed every step but for some reason mig15 isn’t showing up under controls. Is there something I’m doing wrong for it not to show up?
I am having trouble installing these files for DSC X56 UH60. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I love your keymaps and all but there is a few issues I've found for ME. I don't use rudder pedals, or track IR. you're better off just learning the game and making a profile based on your preferences. Unfortunately I've wasted hours on these videos cap has made.
SUBSCRIBED I need a video on Oculus Quest setup. ;)
Hi CAP, I did all your steps but only a few binding seemed to appear. Nothing else showed up for me. Is there anyway you can tell me/ help me what I did wrong
I'm slightly worried that this is a really old vid, not sure if things have changed since then?
@@grimreapers hey grim, i got to change every single keyboard setting manually?
@@grimreapers thankyou for the response but I finally got it to work and is super helpful! thankyou!!
Planes, guns and buttons, what more does a man want ?
tried uploading to dcs and it doesnt show in the columns afterwards. not sure what im doing wrong.
I found that it happens because the controls are set to "All but Axis commands" - which doesn't include the commands for the HOTAS.
In actuality, using the .lua files, doesn take effect and is being applied to the games controls.
Any fix?@@Toranga
@@youlolo2 EDIT: It's important to left click on any command line in order to check by pressing what command is binded to the button you pressed
it takes effect, you just need to be in the "Axis commands" list, to see when it's working.
take note that you can accidently place the throttle file to the stick settings, and vice-versa.
for example - somehow my throttle controlled somehow both the "rolling" yaw and the throttle.
so it's important to press the "clear all" *if needed*. so after applying each file to the stick or throttle - go to the "axis commands" list and check what took effect by using the stick or throttle, and if needed apply the file to the other stick or throttle.
I hope I was understood.
EDIT: It's important to left click on any command line in order to check by pressing what command is binded to the button you pressed
Will the x56 throttle bindings work with my x55 throttle?
doubt it
