Re: app to print out button mappings?

I can't promise the little tiny numbers showing the 'default' (logical) button assignments have kept up with firmware changes, since I didn't really care about that so much as what I was mapping to in game. I also have done a little editing of my own configurations to add things like long presses to...

Re: MCG Ultimate. Close up.

Thanks, I dont own a VKB so this will be my first. Ive been waiting around for the next release :) You're jumping straight for the brass ring. ;-) As far as I am aware, unless you count things like the MCG (Pro or Ultimate) flip up trigger, which also has a 'press', or the Kosmosima "rapid-fir...

Re: Where to find MCG Ultimate Firmware

And modular analog axes not currently installed, any potential non-calibration concern?

Re: VKB. Ultimate.

Mine is side-stick; space player here mostly. I use pretty weak springs too, and the soft-center space cams. (Can't honestly remember if I'm on #10 or #20 springs - one per axis only. But I did not feel the need to bump them up when I swapped in Ultimate and finally got to do some playing this weeke...

Any potential issue of uncalibrated analogs not installed?

If we start at default, but have swapped out one of the modular analog sticks for a hat instead, we don't have those axes present to calibrate anymore. Any possible consequences? (I mean I can see the post-calibration values kdhi and kdlow or whatever are 255's which is expected, just curious if the...

Re: MCG Ultimate. Close up.

I note that in all the pictures, the trigger is red. Does this include a black button cap for the trigger like for the buttons? Just received mine. I did not see a non-red replacement trigger form (or cover). I won't rule out having missed it so far though. It's a nice red, kind of dark, not "...

Re: VKB: Please make NXT "ULTIMATES"

Although the Kosmosima isn't nearly as 'big' a grip as the MCG, they did say the NXT probably wouldn't survive the MCG Ultimate grip. Probably not just the weight, maybe they just expect people to gorilla it and put way more strain on the gimbal mounting stem... Anyway, I fear they might say that a ...

Re: Elite Dangerous FA Off Toggle

I'm not positive, but I think that might be logical function "Toggle""? As in press once, it treats as an 'activate function' (even when released), then releases only when you press again? But I'm not 100% sure you can make it work the way you want. EDIT - in below I might have the Ph...

Re: VKB GNX-THQ - Throttle Quadrant for Gladiator NXT anyone?

A pic was teased on Reddit so I suspect the wait is not long for you now.

Re: MCG Ultimate. Close up.

Nice I am ordering this! About what time on the 24th will it be available for order Question about the Twist Model. Can the Twist be Locked like with a screw or something??? Since he seemed to answer above that the twist from a MCG Pro can be moved to MCG Ultimate, it would seem to be the same twis...

Re: app to print out button mappings?

I just created my own. I've linked it before, both here and on reddit/r/hotas. If anyone wants it reply and I'll re-link. But be forwarned I use my Kosmosima LH Premium mounted laterally (throttle-like) so my graphics orientation kind of matches that. You could edit again yourself of course, but you...

Re: Gunfighter mk 3 aluminium cams?

I think there was a recent post about this. Original cams were steel, machined, had to be plated (copper first, then chrome). Then they went to machined aluminum when the GF III first came out, so those would be nonmagnetic presumably. Then most recently a cast steel alloy, which is once again plate...

Re: VKB. Ultimate.

...just don't leave us hanging. Announce a product in a reasonable amount of time before it's release. We're getting off topic again, but I believe this is WHY we have not heard more about TECS between first announcement and now, and also why the GNX came out so soon after it was actually revealed....
