Thread: Il-2 Joy Control help | Forums

  1. #1
    I just downloaded the il2 joy control because I've heard it really helps setting up a stick. What I'd like to do is to change the trim sensitivity around the center of the rotary buttons. It's very hard to trim precisely because the rotaries are most sensitive around the center, and on the ends the sensitivity is very low. What I'd like to do is make it less sensitive around the center...

    I am not quite sure if I understand the question.

    Generally with a slider or rotary you set all the sensitivities to the same setting, usually 100.

    Make a curve that starts slow and goes up to 100. On the left set the min and max values to the boxes and click 'Curved'. I use the following with the rotary trims of the X52 Pro:

    0 20 24 30 38 47 58 70 84 100

    Perhaps messing around with the settings for the 'Dead Zone' or the 'Filtering' might improve the sensitivity of the buttons?!
    I really don't know if it helps to solve the issue!

    Dirkpit has the right answer, just set a curve to the trim axis making sure the first few values are very slightly increasing. The curve is represented for one direction from center (i.e. Z) and will work on the other direction the same (i.e. -Z).

    Thanks. Now I understand how it works. It's proving useful already.

    A lot of people find great success setting elevators and ailerons to all 100's on the X52, give it a try.
