GETTING TO KNOW YOUR HOTAS JOYSTICK THROTTLE Your joystick features a large throttle which you can use to easily control the acceleration of your aircraft. The throttle is detachable and may be positioned in 2 different ways, either: - Detached and separated from the joystick (to re-create authentic piloting conditions) - Attached to the joystick (for greater stability and to take up less space). By default, the throttle comes detached from the joystick. To attach the throttle to the joystick: 1.
RUDDER FUNCTION Your joystick features a rudder function, which in a plane corresponds to the pedals used by the pilot to turn the steering, allowing the plane to pivot around its vertical axis (therefore making the plane turn left or right). This rudder function is accessible on your joystick by rotating the handle to the left or right. This rudder function is accessible in two ways: - on your joystick by rotating the handle (4) to the left or right. - or via the rocking button (10) on the throttle.
PC INSTALLATION ON PC 1. Set your joystick’s USB selector (3) to the “PC” position. 2. Connect the USB connector (2) to one of your computer’s USB ports.

“AUTOMATIC PRESET” CONFIGURATION - PC “AUTOMATIC PRESET” diagram on PC RED HOME LED = 4 AXES MODE GREEN HOME LED = 5 AXES MODE The "4 axes" mode preset corresponds to the default configurations for most aerial simulation games on PC. It will therefore allow you to start playing your game right away, without having to reconfigure your joystick. In "5 axes" mode, the function of the rocking button must be manually assigned in your game's options.
ADVANCED FUNCTIONS 2 PROGRAMMING MODES The PRESET button (6) and its LED allow you to view the type of programming selected: AUTOMATIC (preprogrammed) or MANUAL (programmed by yourself). A single press of this button will allow you to switch from one programming mode to the other, even during the course of a game. • AUTOMATIC PRESET: LED IS OFF This represents the default programming: the axes, positions of the buttons and of the hatswitch are preprogrammed.
PROGRAMMING/MAPPING Your programming is carried out using the MAPPING button (7). • Examples of possible applications: - Switching the positions of buttons. - Switching axes between themselves = directions of the handle, of the throttle or of the rudder (in this case, you must map the 2 directions of the first axis to those of the second.) - Switching the 2 directions of the same axis. - Switching buttons with a direction of an axis or of the hat-switch.
