Hi folks,

I've got the old CH fighter stick/pro-throttle for years and right now
considering whether to buy the new USB one. The old type has programe
functions like 'press/release' and 'hold until release' only. Just wondered
whether the new one has got more choices, e.g. toggle function as in TM's
flcs-tqs gear.

Any info appreciated.

Thanks

Alex

Yes. The programming software for the CH USB stuff (the Control
Manager) is much more powerful than the F22/FLCS/TQS, etc. You can do
a toggle or most anything else you can think of with it. There isn't a
direct Toggle function, the GUI side of the programming does most of
the basic character stuff and it doesn't include one. It does have
Modes, the Shift functions, press and release, etc. There's a
scripting facility built into the Control Manager though and a simple
toggle like the /T is easy enough to set up. It has the capability of
doing very complex functions if you need them.

Drop by the CH Hangar:

and have a look around. There are a lot of folks there to help if you
need it.

Best regards,
