How to setup a 8way snap view on Gladiator NXT2 Premium?

[Monkee]

Hi, I don't have TrackIR so I wanted to set up a 8 way hat switch with snap views but it seems that only the ministick is capable of doing 8 way from what I read before, is that right?
It seems to me though that IL2 never recognizes this stick as buttons or the diagonals of the axis, no matter what I do? Can someone help me with the setup?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Monkee

i use my Gladiator Ministick as TrackIR and i like it.
so i have 4 Axis, Yaw, Pich, X and Y
you turn your ministick left the sight go Yaw and a little to X, feel good in game
how make:
you need Opentrack 2.3.11. Beta 3 (newer versions make trouble) settings see pictures.
