[EL 1.0308]Reverse afterburner and saitek X52 *INFO*
Posted: Mon Aug 01, 2016 8:58 pm
Hey!
While trying to learn more advanced combat technics I realized it is possible to use the reverse afterburner... I also realized the Saitek X52 profiler sucks big time. My issue is more saitek related than EL related, but since Vice (or anyone else ^^) may know a solution I'm allowing myself to post here.
My issue is that you have to hold the reverse thrusters key AND the afterburner key in order to use the reverse afterburner which makes sense for a normal mind, but I don't believe that the people who designed the saitek profiler were sane people... ^^' After fiddling with the saitek profiler for a good hour the best I can do is use an advanced command to spam both keys multiple times per second in order to spam the reverse afterburner quickly enough to accelerate which sounds very, very ugly.
How are people with a X52 HOTAS mapping the reverse afterburner to their device? I'm probably overlooking something simple as usual but I can't get the saitek profiler to hold more than one key pressed for the life of me so any help would be apreciated.
Thanks in advance for the heads up!
