I'll have to rewatch this a few times. I have a bazillion buttons, switches, rotaries, etc, but am very new to SC. I spent my last two weeks unable to get by a major annoying thing where it sees both of my virpils as the same sometime, or if it's working, switches them. NO MORE. I now use vJoy hidhide and joystick gremlin. I have 13 controllers, winwing full mip and several throttles with the ability to have everything hooked up at the same time (rarely do, just when showing it off to a visitor). Red bird rudder pedals, virpil left and right alpha primes, but until last night I couldn't use anything without issues. The apps mentioned, I can now assign various axis, buttons, thrust levers from numerous controllers and have them all seen as one joystick. This video reminded me of a few binds I didn't do that I should, so thank you much. It's great to be able to lean over to throw a switch, or perform a button press on a different panel, but it's funny that with all I've noted that I need to add from you as well as all the ones I mapped last night, I have less than 50 binds, haha.
So I got the last parts of my Virpil setup last night, and just put them together and configured them just now. I had wanted to integrate the pedals into my SC control scheme, they would give me three new axis's" 1) pedals left and right 2) left brake 3) right brake I just want to say, they are sturdy as hell and well boxed. My box was damaged in transit, no issues to the device. And they are an absolute unit. All you need to do is screw the pedals you want onto the swing arms, plug in the cable and it's ready to be setup with the software. Stabilitywise, I have carpet in this room, but the pedals are heavy and on nice adjustable rubber feet. I think you'll have no issues with the pedals moving no matter what kind of floor you have. My reservations for using the pedals in Star Citizen; the stock spring and cam dont have a clear center, which is perfect for aircraft, but for SC I think I'd like a center to know when I'm there. Especially if I use it for roll, which was my first idea, with up and down on the brake pedals. I try to think of a use for an axis with no clear center and I can't think of how to use the pedals along with the rest of my Virpil setup. For the moment, I'm going to use the two Alphas and my throttle for Star Citizen. If I don't end up using the pedals, perhaps I'll buy one of the button boxes to fill out the SC 4 controller limit. I think you'd get more use out of a throttle than pedals if you were wanting to add more Virpil goodness. Or perhaps the two button boxes? To me, the throttle is a nice button box in Star Citizen, and I can use the two separate throttle leavers and flaps lever in my SC setup. The fact that the 6 center buttons are set up for 5 banks, making them 30 buttons is a big plus.
Glad you mentioned rudder pedals, as I was thinking that is something that may be more natural for me when using sticks. I'd love to see them have pedals and witness you utilize them!
I went from HOTAS w/pedals to dual stick myself. It's the most accurate for flight sim value but can get a little more tiring to play sometimes if you can't get a comfortable angle and anchor the rolling/twisting of the chair and pedals. If things are loose you end up by reflex using your abs and lower back to stabilize the chair or pedals. If the seat is fixed and rudders bolted down like in a realistic flight sim pit its very comfortable. You'll have to try it for yourself though as its all personal taste and comfort. Virpil uses a cool mechanical design for the actuation of the pedals IMHO.
Well done BlackMaze, thanks for the keybinds that we can use and adjust. Was having quite some difficulties to adjust after playing ED for the last 3 years. While with ED I had to use Joystick Gremlin to use all the many buttons, in SC all buttons get accepted. Having your same VIrpil setup, this was a very convenient review having your review on these Virpil settings. @Virpil. please give Blackmaze a pedals set so he can review and give us a good review. I spent over €1600 on Virpil and thanks to reviews like these, so they're definitely paying off. Well done and tnx again Blackmaze! o7
Yes! Pedals plz @ Virpil help this fella out he makes slick videos that are helpful and entertaining! @BlackMaze really curious what you would map to the pedals. You currently have everything covered with the way your used to playing, but i'm thinking pedals could be either roll (most common use probably) or up/down thrust. If you did roll you could make your right stick left and right be up and down instead of roll, but this might be hard to adapt to, and you might occasionally go up and down as your simply trying to go forward or back. Been looking at your exact joysticks from Virpil for a while, but just enjoying waiting. When i first looked at virpil they did not have the sticks available that you use now, and i love the two xbox joysticks on the Constellation Alpha sticks, for me negates my need to use a keyboard (mostly - still need some shortcuts, like you have on your hand-keyboard). Thx! - Update bought the same joysticks/bases, would have used a referral code if you had one.
I love the virpil controllers but I haven't actually set them up yet as I am waiting for the pedals to arrive, but I seem to agree with the setup you have meaning it works for my brain when I think about the button allocations that you setup, is it possible to have a file that you can share so when I set my controllers and pedal I can quickly use your setup?
def want you to try pedals, hooning with full immersion with your skills would be a sight to behold. already got my eyes on this virpil setup once i master my dual t16000m
Having an issue with throttle forward/back keybinding (HOSAS VPC Cons-Alpha). It's bound to the Y-axis on the left stick, when I push forward or pull back on the stick the ship will only move backwards! Any y-axis (+/-) movement results in the ship always moving in the same direction.
I love your videos! Please keep making more Star Citizen videos! The Pedro ending was a nice closing bliss in my opinion. I would love to see those pedal setup btw ;)
Great vid :) Definitely would love to see a follow up piece about the rudder pedals. Though at the moment I'm seriously considering upgrading my pair of Delta's to a pair of Alpha's. Just gotta click that BUY button and accept the pain of the exchange rate and delivery fees :(
Nice video could you happen to do a more on the viral software. I never New you could change the trigger for missile mode to a switch. I will have to go look at that.
I've been through the mappings a few times and I was wondering if I'm just missing it, but is there a way to map individual screens of the mobi glass? All I can find is the mobi itself, and the map. Thanks!
Now I’m not confused by “pinky trigger” I normally refer to that one as the brake lever. Thanks! I was thinking it was the actual button where your pinky would rest if you grip the stick.
since my thrustmaster sticks have most buttons on the base of the sticks I ordered pedals a while ago but they're still out of stock :( I planned to move the up/down strafe frome the Z-axis on my left sick tto the pedals tilt motion and the yaw from the right Z-axis to the pedals push/pull motion... it would free the Z-axis' of both sticks for other functions...
What I'd like to see is your setup in the Virpil software. I have errors with the left base and don't know if I did a mistakes or if the gear is not working properly...
@@BlackMaze In the VPC configuration tool, it would be cool to see the BUTTON screen for R and L grips please ! I want to see if there are differences. I use 2 Constellation Alpha with MongoosT50-CM2 bases and the CM2 throttle (not the latest 3rd version). Since I installed a new SSD, Windows can't see the throttle anymore :( Damned Unknown USB Device (Port Reset Failed) !!!
hey i was on the web side and not sure what the diffrece betwene these 2 base mounts is. there is 1 for 190€ and 1 for 290€. at this price range for two sticks i dont want to buy the wrong set
Hey MAze, how do you get the left stick to behave like the right stick for strafing as you have it setup? My right stick works like yours but the left stick pinky lever is wide open and when i pull it in it closes. Tryna fix it to start closed then pull lever to open. I have virpils as you do but this has been a tricky issue for so very long and havent really been able to figure it out. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
I love the idea of having a half keyboard so you don’t have to switch around so much! which one do you have? The layout looks pretty nice and i haven’t seen quite the same thing elsewhere.
I got the slider 1 to work (strafe up) on my Left Constellation Alpha: but having trouble with the strafe down on the Right Constellation Alpha do you have any insights you would be able to share?
Cannot get my dual virpils to work. Both are flashed with profiles created and all buttons pass (all via vpc software), but only my left will open in control panel, the right says there is a problem. Star citizen see's the same axis no matter which controller I touch, even though both have unique usb ID's in the windows registry, thus should also be treated as individual controls in any game. It's driving me nuckinig futs!
OMG THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now I just need to save money and manage to buy some. TRY THE RUTTER PEDDLES. I would love to get some one day, and if you do it and make a video I can find out if its worth getting or not.
Nice video and I would be interested to see if you like flight pedals. I am on an X55 Hotas and coming from ED I used the 4 way hat switch on the throttle for up/down/left/right/strafe along with all flight operations + COunter measures. The Right stick is for all things Fire controls/targeting and flight mode.
I would be extremely appreciative of a rudder pedal binding video and it would be pretty awesome if you could get your hands on a mongoose t50 cm3 throttle as well
Trying to use the slider "brake" levels as up and down strafe, but they seem far too sensitive to use for me, no matter what curves I try. I basically want the first 50% of the slider to be slow for take off / descend but it seems to just go immediately to like 20+ m/s. What am I doing wrong?
I'm not sure if this would make the pedals worth the purchase for you, but what I found I like is rather than have the up and down on the brake levers for the sticks, I have up and down bound to the pedal action of the pedals. So not the main throw of the pedals, but the "wheel brake" part where the foot rest moves like a car pedal. Right one for up, left one for down. Feels more intuitive than using the brakes, and one less thing for my aiming hand to be doing. I would have liked to move my rotation to the main throw of the pedals, but it's turning out to be really hard to not rotate off my right Z Axis. With some time I might be able to learn the muscle memory to get roll off my aiming hand. Could be good for you if you get pedals.
any chance for an updated version of the keybinds? as it seems like its no longer working or am doing something wrong. bind are there but no doing anything(possible settings issue in vpc's software?)
What is the name of your mini keyboard? I just bought the Razer Tarturus pro and I'm not sure I like it. The Redragon looks easier to use, but I also really like yours.
Hi, Did you inverted behaviour of the Button 1 you use for hand break? Or you use it without modification (so break is when your toggle isfurther away from joystick?)
I would have appreciated it more if you just went into your settings and demonstrated it that way. Can't any other Virpil videos and this video layout makes it hard to follow.
Depends on the chair, right? :D For me it was 4 bolts to take off the rests, mount the Monstertech on and put the bolts back. Very easy. The Monstertech stuff looks a little complicated but their included manuals are PERFECT.
Dear BlackMaze, thank you for both movies regarding your setup and keybindings for dual Virpil HOSAS. There are so awesome that I watched them few times and couldn't resist and ordered my joystick pair. :) Instead of your half keyboard I ordered their control panel #1. And I also plan to use the VoiceAttack - did you try it? However I didn't notice in the movies that you switched your cams to CosmoSim "No center!". Would you be so kind to tell us a little more which cams you tested, why you selected CosmoSim (No-Center) and if there is a big difference between them? I understand that you switched those cams in both joysticks, correct? And if you could say a word about the yaw and roll axis. The default StarCitizen setting is X for yaw and rotation for roll. You have them opposite. There are some ytb movies explaining that in space sims it "should" be used as that for more control (X axis is "longer" - more precise). Your settings are more like for standard plane/helicopter sims. I would be grateful to hear your view on that. And if we talk about axis - have you considered joystick rotation for the vertical thrust control? As a beginner to HOSAS I could learn any configuration so looking for optimal start. And Yes, if you get rudder pedals it would be great to see your review! Virpil please take notice. BR /mb
Excellent video, even a year old. HEY VIRPIL, talk to this guy about rudder pedals. Perhaps like the ones I ordered, along with all the other stuff based in part from this dude's work.
Any way to get more consistency out of the missile operating mode toggle? As is, it seems to not toggle 100% of the time resulting in it inverting during a fight (meaning flipped up gets set to on, and flipped down set to off.)
@@BlackMaze Also, looks like when selecting the profile, you have three Joystick options... I'm not sure which goes where... Joystick => Joystick Joystick => Joystick (1) Joystick => (blank)?
Hey BlackMaze how did you set the right trigger toggle for the spacebrake in the Virpil software? I can only get it to work for a moment while I switch the trigger!
Hey man the XML file is gonezo - I just came back to the game and had a profile almost identical to this and was wondering if you could drop your keybinds for 3.17
I would then love if U would update youre setup to the current version. Maybe even with youre keyboard setup for people that are interested. Make a xml file for them to download aswell as the template of keybindings.
@@BlackMaze I've gotta blank Virpil stick layout you could use or upload your SC bindings export and I can give you a filled out version based on your setup.
@@BlackMaze Ah ok that makes sense! And yeah I agree the forward and backward directions can be a bit awkward. I need all the buttons I can get, though XD
I'd love to see a pedal set up for this. If Virpil can make that happen it would be awesome.
This is the way.

I would be extremely appreciative of a rudder pedal binding video and it would be pretty awesome if you could get your hands on a mongoose t50 cm3 throttle as well
on my left stick the pinky pull slider at rest is always reading max value is there a way to invert it so it reads 0
There is an inversion check box inside of the settings for that axis.
Trying to use the slider "brake" levels as up and down strafe, but they seem far too sensitive to use for me, no matter what curves I try. I basically want the first 50% of the slider to be slow for take off / descend but it seems to just go immediately to like 20+ m/s.

Why don't you just use the joystick while on foot as well?
I have been looking at those monstertech mounts for a while now for my dual TCMs. How was it to take apart your chair and put them on? Easy/hard?
Depends on the chair, right? :D For me it was 4 bolts to take off the rests, mount the Monstertech on and put the bolts back. Very easy. The Monstertech stuff looks a little complicated but their included manuals are PERFECT.

Would you be so kind to tell us a little more which cams you tested, why you selected CosmoSim (No-Center) and if there is a big difference between them? I understand that you switched those cams in both joysticks, correct?
And if you could say a word about the yaw and roll axis. The default StarCitizen setting is X for yaw and rotation for roll.
You have them opposite. There are some ytb movies explaining that in space sims it "should" be used as that for more control (X axis is "longer" - more precise). Your settings are more like for standard plane/helicopter sims. I would be grateful to hear your view on that.
And if we talk about axis - have you considered joystick rotation for the vertical thrust control?
As a beginner to HOSAS I could learn any configuration so looking for optimal start.
And Yes, if you get rudder pedals it would be great to see your review! Virpil please take notice.

Excellent video, even a year old. HEY VIRPIL, talk to this guy about rudder pedals. Perhaps like the ones I ordered, along with all the other stuff based in part from this dude's work.
And maybe send me a shipping notification!
I’ve given up 😅 Glad you found it useful!
Any way to get more consistency out of the missile operating mode toggle? As is, it seems to not toggle 100% of the time resulting in it inverting during a fight (meaning flipped up gets set to on, and flipped down set to off.)
I've quit using it. Switched it to one of the other regular buttons.
ive always thought id do pedals if given the chance, go for it!
XML Bindings link no longer working
I would love to get a copy of your Virpil config to go along with your Keybindings XML -- Could you upload that as well?
It’s in the description of one of my Virpil vids.
@@BlackMaze Also, looks like when selecting the profile, you have three Joystick options... I'm not sure which goes where...
Joystick => Joystick
Joystick => Joystick (1)
Joystick => (blank)?
Any mapping updates?
For the Cosmo cams, did you order the soft-center option or no center option?
No center!
how do you get those center squares at the bottom? is it in star citizen or third party? thanks
It’s in the video description :)
Hi Blackmaze. I'm a bit late to this video. Did Virpil ever give you those paddles?
No :(
The xml link doesn't exist anymore
Btw, Id like to see how this setup would work with the pedals, hope they decide to help you with it
Virpil gear is so nice
Hey BlackMaze how did you set the right trigger toggle for the spacebrake in the Virpil software? I can only get it to work for a moment while I switch the trigger!
Don't use it anymore but gotta use the Virpil invert setting on it.
Thank you for this! Are you using the same controls/bindings still?
how you deal with precicion on a dogfight ? I have a veryyyy hard time aimm or stay on target with joystick
With the Virpils, it's easy.
Hey man the XML file is gonezo - I just came back to the game and had a profile almost identical to this and was wondering if you could drop your keybinds for 3.17

Would be nice if u made a mapping for the sticks. Helps out people if they want to take youre bindings. To print it out
I would love to do that. Do you know of a cool Virpil template?
I would then love if U would update youre setup to the current version. Maybe even with youre keyboard setup for people that are interested. Make a xml file for them to download aswell as the template of keybindings.
@@BlackMaze I've gotta blank Virpil stick layout you could use or upload your SC bindings export and I can give you a filled out version based on your setup.
Very nice. Got some inspiration from this.
Really convinced me to sell my t16k's and get some virpil sticks.
I have the "basic" Virpil Gladiator and I really like it
You keep referring to the thumb hats as 2-way but they're actually 4-way! Even more buttons available for future binds :)
Yes they are 4 way but the ergonomics of the physical button encourage pulling and pushing in 2 directions only! :)
@@BlackMaze Ah ok that makes sense! And yeah I agree the forward and backward directions can be a bit awkward. I need all the buttons I can get, though XD
Rudder pedals would be great of course!
Also VIRPIL guys need to think about proper chair mounts. So far they only have armchair mount for collective.
Great video. Is the XLM file for the Virpil software or can I use it for Star Citizen? Thanks.
Sc!
I tried visiting the link for the XML but it says that the file is in the owner's trash, is there a keybind file still available?
Hey thanks for letting me know, I've made a new file and URL for you!
