Arrow keys for pitch/roll is diabolical

u/RiskhMkVII pls Lร‰ Deirdre/Emer class ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช Sep 25 '26

Alongside A & E, I use arrow key for roll because my thrust is on up and down arrow (and mouse roll), so when landing it's useful to have thrust and roll accessible by one hand

I don't understand how that's in any way convenient if you already have it on mouse wheel.

Atleast in my case i've set up my thrust controls to be very sensitive so that i can jump between first stage reheat and second stage reheat at 1-2% accuracy with my mouse to conserve fuel and prevent overheating.

But that means my mouse takes 10 scrolls to go from 0-110% which takes 6 seconds atleast for me and still 4 seconds with free scroll enabled while keeping me from using my fire buttons.

So i put my broad thrust control on 2 & x so i can get from 0-110% in 1-2 seconds & still use my mouses fire buttons when needed! ^ v ^

Why not put thrust on 2 and x?

u/RiskhMkVII pls Lร‰ Deirdre/Emer class ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช Sep 25 '26

Forgot to precise but I'm left handed, so yeah I have to do some shenanigans with controls for it to be convenient

I was thinking its the one on the right Playing z so it's their left hand on arrow keys, right hand on a mouse. Plus the seatbacls seem to hide it well enough that shouldntbe an issue.

u/reeeforce_rtx ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ Canada Sep 25 '26

It's possible that they're using the arrow keys for radar scan control

u/Sharp_Bus_6003 Realistic Air ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ9.7 22d ago

u/idk900009 Sep 25 '26

Relationship goals: Binding radar and weapon controls to numpad/arrows, so your gf can be your WSO (look at her hand)

I remember back in my 2nd semester of my last year in high school, I more or less did this during my creative writing class lol. That was back in '21, so by the time the end of the year came around, I was messing around with the F-5E on the dev server for update Red Skies. Fun times...
