2. Axis Setting

First you should select the section Axis Commands or press the button AXIS (at the bottom, in the middle). Both will change to the list of actions for which you can select an analogue axis (joystick or thrust lever). Each device is shown as a separate column, while the actions are shown as a row (see marking below). Of course, the listed input devices have different names.

By default, there are certainly some strange assignments in there. To delete them all, select one field in each column in turn (e.g. VPC Stick on the screenshot...) and then delete the whole column using Delete Category. For example, many beginners have problems due to double-occupied axes.

If you then double-click on a cell (intersection between row and column), you can assign an axis.

You should set the following axes:

Action Description Remark
Cyclic Roll Roll Axis - Aileron Recommendation: Curvature 25
Cyclic Pitch Pitch axis - Elevator Recommendation: Curvature 25
Rudder Yaw - Rudder Recommendation: Curvature 30
Collective Lift Collectively adjusts the blade pitch and thus the overall angle of attack of the rotor blades. Do not set curvature

Please keep in mind that the adjustment of the axes strongly depends on the hardware used and the personal taste. For example, there are people who lower the saturation and use a lower curvature. You have to try this out for yourself.

To set the sensitivity of the assigned joystick axes, open the AXIS SETTING dialogue via the button AXIS SETTING:
