CH Products HOTAS

Post by Pyroman »

I have a USB Combatstick, Pro Throttle, and Pro Pedals. Is anyone else using this config. If so how did you get your rudder pedals to work. Everytime I try to assign that axis the darn throttle axis acts like it's being used and steals the axis before I can assign the rudder pedals.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to have to use HATS.

put the thottle @ 50% AKA in the Middle, if it is @ 0 or 100%, it for some reason programs tend to think they are moving to reconize them as the axis to assign.

Are they all USB? If they are, I'm assumning you have Control Manager v3, right?

Yeah I sure am. I can't get it to recognize my rudder pedals.

W/o Control Mgr, does Windows see each device independently? Here, try this profile... (grab both files and put in same folder)

The Windows Control Panel Applet should look like this before CHCM:

and this after loading the map into the rig w/ CHCM:

Lemme know...

thanks for your help. The problem is that it's showing the flightstick not the combatstick and it's also not showing my throttle in the .map file.

When I try to combine the axis's non of the buttons or axis works. Do you use CH products for this game?

Have you tried the CHDelete program yet? That may clean up some junk in the registry. Strange that it shows the fighterstick...can you take a screenshot of your Game Controller control panel?

I do use the throttle and stick (no pedals) for D3. My roll is on the front throttle buttons (2 and 3).

Here's my map for that:
