T.Flight Hotas 4 Firmware? #661

Closed jessemillar closed 4 years ago

jessemillar commented 4 years ago

A number of flight simulator games (including Elite Dangerous) specifically support the T.Flight Hotas 4 joystick on PS4. Is there an existing GIMX firmware that emulates the T.Flight Hotas 4 or are there plans to make one? I looked around but couldn’t find any or a guide on how to assist with creating new firmware.

Using the Hotas 4 in Elite Dangerous gives different control over the throttle. I’d like to use my Gladiator Mk.II with Elite Dangerous through GIMX. I know I can map the Gladiator’s inputs to a PS4 controller via GIMX but then I lose out on more fine control of the throttle.

Ah. It appears I missed an in-game preference for using an “analogue axis” for throttle control which means I can use the PS4 driver to gain all the fidelity I want. I’ll reopen this issue if that’s not the case once my flight stick arrives next week.
