[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Jan-09-02 AT 09:31AM (EDT)[/font][p]I have a project that I'm working on, and I will have 4 buttons and 1 extra axis.
What would you use the extra buttons and axis for?
I have
CH flight sim yoke (th, prop,mix)
Ch pedals (rudder) left and right brakes
I'm not sure what to use the extra axis for?

Personally, as Auto-Spoilers don't work, I would use the extra axis to deploy them...

Hey Scott,

I have two yokes currently and what I like the most is the fixed (as in non-returning to zero) sliders. I use one for elevator trim and the other for throttle. I have 4 buttons assigned for prop and mixture, 2 buttons to cycle views forward and back, two buttons for flaps. If I had more fixed position sliders I'd do mixture, prop pitch, and rudder trim probably in that order.

I would use the extra axis for shifting pilot position, ie: raising lowering the seat via shift enter and shift bckspc.

19 button functions
