Side note, tanks in VR are a lot of fun with POV from commanders hatch, and slow enough to not upset more sensitive stomach. Air in VR can get a bit intensive.
I felt like I was at a pretty big disadvantage when I tried VR Ground RB. The way the HUD follows the hull in 3rd person view, but the turret in commander view, and then snapping the sniper scope back to your forward facing position rather than where you’re looking is all really “clunky.” It becomes very disorientating and I never seem to know where I’m aiming and even knowing the orientation of the hull can be problematic. They need to work on it to be as intuitive as air battles IMO. The biggest factor for VR is intuitiveness, and when I'm fumbling over basic tank movement and aiming simply down to the way they handle the HUD movement and camera views, it loses so much appeal. Don't get me wrong, it was a cool experience, but I was just WAY more situationally aware and able to react accurately in 2D.
@@ZZPxFTW Yes, it's not 100% best thing ever, but you are sitting on a tank blasting fools, and that is sometimes enough. Still better than my WT air in vr. Lost a wing and came down with my world spinning for what it felt an eternity.
Hotas X and the Hotas 4 are the same exact hotas to those looking at comments. The T.Flight Hotas 4 is just the PS4 version of the T.Flight Hotas X. The buttons are numbered the same on PC, but will have Square, Circle, Triangle, and Cross on them instead of RT/RB X,Y,B,A
After years of having my HOTAS One, I hung it up due to not finding any IN-DEPTH Instructional videos on how to CORRECTLY set-up and assign multiple key bindings. You, sir, already earned my sub from this video, I'll be watching the series and I am excited to be able to get full utilization of my HOTAS ONE.
@@kahlzun I strongly suggest mapping buttons and settings in small increments and learn them before doing all the remapping at one time. But once you get the muscle memory and buttons learned it's so much fun.
I have th T. Flight full kit X your videos made my whole Xmas! I had to manuly bind them but enjoying the steep learning curve! TY! Marry Christmas! Have great new year!
If you keep on having issues with the instructor limiting pitch and roll angles when you're at low altitude, make sure to go into aircraft controls, simplified controls, instructor, and unselect "auto-restrict controls of the aircraft near the ground"
Thanks! And I would say it's better than nothing. I haven't used headtracking, but I can say it's different in that the screen doesn't move with you, so you have to turn your head, but keep your eyes locked on the screen, where as VR keeps the screen in feont of you at all times.
Hey Bruce I don’t know if you remember me but I believe you played Tarkov with me a while back and just wanna say hearing your voice is a nostalgia trip for me
I came across your video with the Motley Crüe song and started to watch more of your vids. I was gonna ask you what was your config for your Hotas since I just got the same one. This is gonna be really hard hahahaha I hope I can get some what better with the hotas.
I’m curious, is there a way to like jerryrig a HOSAS set up into working with a flight Sim game? I primarily fly in Star Citizen but I’ve been trying to get into atmosphere flight sims, and I don’t want to buy a throttle that I might never use. Because I know I use my HOSAS a lot.
I need help okay I plugged in my The Thrustmaster T Flight Hotas 4 to PlayStation 4 and I turn on my PlayStation 4 controller off to use joystick and I'm moving around with the joystick with a cursor pointing on the Button X on the game War Thunder and when i press the x button with joystick on the on the screen and won't let me click the button on the screen I thought it would be easy just buy the joystick and just plug it in and play please tell me what to do. Don't give me likes or red hearts I need answers
I have throttle on left side of keyboard and stick on right side I have throttle buttons for flaps gear and a few small things stick is switch secondary’s which does all the dropping and launching and the IR lock and radar lock
Hello! I showed several of your clips to my dad, a ond military ex helicopter pilot and was fascinated. Do you have a clip showing your gear or would you kindly share your setup to prepare something for him? Regards!
Thank you so much for making this and giving it away for free. Is there anyway to still use the keyboard for certain things, like voice commands? Your scheme has radio messages bound to a button on pedals I think, but I don't have pedal. And it seems like the keyboard is unresponsive when using the joystick.
Awesome Vid just got a VR headset and am trying to get into Sim Yet the controls feel so difficult to get down perfectly via a joystick Fly mainly the F14 and A10 yet the controls are just wild, either you barely touch the JS and you're spinning like crazy or You gotta throw that bish all the way to the side to barely turn. Unlike other games DCS, Elite Dangerous etc It's always felt butter smooth Lowkey am going insane trying to figure this shenanigans out
That's great video and i truly want to use your layout. I have Hotas one without pedals. How I go up and down with your setup? I try your setup in the simulator heli mode and I can't take off the field :) I have only C2 in options, but your setup also has C3.
Is there any way you know for xbox players to download your controller set up for the thrustmaster? Got mine in about a week ago and been slaying in tanks and mediocre in aerial but heli is damn near impossible for me to manual control, tried matching my settings to your heli controls video but as soon as I up the collective it goes sideways and crashes
Ok so I finally got all your controls copy and pasted to control aircraft and heli and my setup for ground and naval all rolled into one controller setup. I'm using the thrustmaster t flight one hotas, with a razer blackwidow keyboard, and a logitech g g600 mmo gaming mouse, and an air mouse velcroed to headset for diy headtracking since I'm on xbox and can't utilize vr and regular headtracking like pc and ps players
Dude I need help... you've covered pretty much everything but I can't figure out how to make "modes" so different functions can be applied to same button. Pls help
hey Bruce my hotas just came, i connected everything and everything works on control panel but in War Thunder it says next to all controls "Device is disconnected/ switched off" i use T.Flight Hotas One with Pedals and i used your controls file, any idea how to fix it
@@BruceLeeroy94 I can now picture a future battlefield, sitting in a trench only to see some helicopter pulling off ridiculous manouveres, destroying vehicles with a hail of rockets while dodging SAM missles
I don't have rudder pedals, I use the yaw on the right hand stick to control yaw. Is this awful? Another thing is, is there any reason to ever NOT be firing rocket Salvo? I've never personally needed to fire singular rockets unless the rockets are absolute chunkers. Any insight with this? And one more question. Can I control the gun turret and TOW missiles by looking with my headset somehow, or do I need to have an axis to control that since that feature you mentioned doesn't work?
every year i install this shitshow of a game, plug in my same hotas i use for elite, the same as urs, pick it on the menu same as you, queue a game, spend the whole game flying forward while im tabbing back and forth trying to google how to make do anything other than look left and right, then give up because this is just not worth the time to fuck about. maybe next year they can figure out how to make the most common hotas work on their flight game without needing a 20 minute video.
U was in my game, u done a flip and u killed so many people n doing flips I was like “oh what the” then sum1 was in chat going “OMG BRUCE LEEROY” so yeah that’s y I’m here ur flying is insane good job

Looks like your guides are the most comprehensive out right now, especially for VR. You're the man. Watching all of them today. You got my sub buddy.

This is exactly the video I've been hoping for! Your piloting skills are Amazing!!!
Even without physical pedals you can still control the rudders. Hotas' let you twist the stick to simulate foot pedals and turn left/right.
LEEEEROYYY most skilled chopper pilot in WT
YES!! Thank you so much! My stuff got here and I've been dumbfounded on key bindings and compatibilities
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees, finally, ih ave waited so long for this, thanks bruce :D
Thanks for this. It still makes my brain hurt - too many combinations for a mere mortal to remember!!
Very nice video and god damn you look like those guys from the Davidoff perfume commercials from the 90s. What a stud. :D
🥰 thank you!
yay I was waiting for this video
I have th T. Flight full kit X your videos made my whole Xmas! I had to manuly bind them but enjoying the steep learning curve! TY! Marry Christmas! Have great new year!

We need more of your addictive video !!
Just upload full session video! I can’t catch you on stream !!
You rocks dude ! Keep it up !
Oh wait I did t saw this week twitch video !

Awesome tutorial!
Btw do you think that head-tracking is a viable alternative to vr?

@smarfer In my inexpert opinion, Eye tracking would seem to be better, I found it to be good for DCS.
don't forget, turn sense of flight all the way down.
Thank for this so much
Haha time to start changing my settings again
👍🏻 thx Bruce
woke up to see my HOTAS on my doorstep, thank you amazon prime getting here right on time for my off days, only to realize "wtf do set this up?!?!?!"
thank you bro!!

Do you stream because I’m hooked and need more . Never mind I found it 😁😁😁
I do! bruce_leeroy94. I also have my twitch linked to my youtube channel.
Here a neat trick if you just use the stick and use keyboard you have a shit ton of modifiers and none of the modifiers have to be on your stick
Idk if I've done something wrong but that control setup has roll set for axis 9 which is the hotas x's throttle lever...?
Update: Now I fixed it, thanks :)

HOSAS? I guess you mean 2 sticks? I'm not sure.
@@BruceLeeroy94 yes Hands On Stick And Stick
@@Prophet311 You can set the throttle snd rudder to any axis, so yes, that could work.

Sounds like you need to adjust your inputs or your sensitivity.

Any idea how to turn off auto-roll-levelling? I am in full-real sim mode,instructor off,auto-trim off and still...!!

and good suggestions for the controllers?
