🎮 No HOTAS? No problem! Get Started in DCS World with this SIMPLE Su-25T Controller Setup! 🎮

[@Tuuvas]

If you're having issues binding the Rudder axis to your Triggers, try using Steam to play DCS World (see kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4bEfn6bYsqHp8U ). This will combine gamepads with 2 trigger axes into 1 single trigger axis and will allow you to properly use the Rudder in DCS.

[@Anderson_Hwang]

I've always wanted to try DCS but i didnt have the money to buy a HOTAS, until i saw your gamepad setup tutorials. I decided to give it a try and bought the Hornet. Now besides the hornet, i own F-16, F-14, A-10C, AV-8 and Mirage 2000. All played with an XBOX controller. Thank you so much.

[@Tuuvas]

My pleasure! I'm glad you were able to get into this awesome sim!

[@KyleHolmes97]

So would you say it's worth it? Summer sale is going on and I'm downloading the base game so I'd like some thoughts on it before buying lol

[@Anderson_Hwang]

@@KyleHolmes97 Yes. Buy it. Buy the aircraft you like the most. You'll never regret it.

[@hyd119]

Don't play DCS but IRL I recommend the Mirage 2000. My dream would be the Rafale but that is wishful thinking of course. Delta wing fighters always respond well to me.

[@Coldr3x]

There are also cheaper options to get a hotas, you don’t have to buy a thrustmaster A-10 to enjoy hotas. Thrustmaster Hotas One is probably the best bank for your money if you’re looking for an entry level hotas

[@ezx1633]

Here from GS...l am one of those guys who thought playing dcs without all the flight sim gear it was out of my reach until today. I have love watching dcs and have always wanted to play and now I have hope. Huge thank you for this you are a bloody legend ⛳

[@Tuuvas]

My pleasure man! And welcome! Just keep in mind, this particular tutorial is a very dumbed down version of my usual layouts. It's good for getting a taste of DCS, but you'll want to graduate to my more complex layouts should you decide you like DCS after all.

[@Chip_in]

@@Tuuvas Sweet l will keep that in mind. I am super keen to start my dcs journey now that a lot of my constraints are now removed and a whole new channel with lots more dcs to watch. Hope you and GS do more videos it was super cool to watch. Big thanks again for making dcs accessible for people who are in a similar situation to me ⛳

[@bife9432]

I commented on your Shorts video, and I'm here again! EVERYONE wanting to get started in DCS should watch this video. HOTAS make it better by a lot, but for those wanting to start and get to know what DCS really is, playing it on a controller might be what one needs before committing to a HOTAS.

[@Tuuvas]

Preach!

[@keepscrollingbuddy5471]

If you use a VR headset, you could replace camera look with target designator slew or replace trim with turn on laser range finder and electro-optical camera. So you can really experience all of DCS in the frogfoot.

[@MAWGReacts]

Just wanted to stop by and drop a thanks... I don't use controller anymore, just recently got a hotas, but I still download your controller bindings so I know what is important to bind to the hotas. I go through all the buttons you have mapped and lay them out onto the hotas. Your bindings have been invaluable to me and will continue to be every time I get a new aircraft in this game.

[@Tuuvas]

I'm glad I can stick with you even after you've graduated haha

[@KashouWannabe]

Thanks for this. I got the A-10C module back in 2013 but found the hardest thing was being able to look around in a decent manner. Track IR does my neck in, as does keeping my eyes on the screen as I move my head. Until I find a decent eye tracking solution (Tobii sure, but I want to try a free one first) this will be great. Thanks for this.

I would like to know more pls, I want to get in DCS using a Xbox One controller. This video and instructions was very helpful. Personally I would go with LT/RT as throttel, LB/RB as rudder for yaw, B for weapons, A for guns, and both Flare/Chaff fire off together with Y. So A is left open.

Having an issue with the rudder binding. For some reason the rudder is stuck either full left or full right, depending on which trigger I have binded. I have to hold the trigger down to center it, if I let go it immediately swings back left as if I'm hold down the trigger. Any solution?

[@Tuuvas]

Yup, see pinned comment. Basically you'll want to run DCS though Steam with the appropriate controller support enabled. Whether it's Steam Edition or even Standalone

[@boombaka]

Have you looked into Steam input's more advanced features such as Radial menu or Hotbar? They let you add a whole lot more inputs on your gamepad.

[@Tuuvas]

I have. I'm still debating on whether to make a video for it though. At that point it becomes pretty customized to ones own tastes, so it feels like something I shouldn't need to cover. I'll continue to think about it!

[@NiclasAsp]

I give up! I can't set up the rudder control. It just starts at -100 on the axis and not 0.

[@Tuuvas]

This is because your triggers are two separate axes (ie. PlayStation or really old Xbox 360) instead of a single shared axis (Xbox One, Xbox Series, or any other modern X-input controller). The easiest solution is to run DCS through Steam, whether it's Steam Edition or Standalone Edition. You'll just need to add Standalone manually as a non-Steam game

Great video, thank you so much for the help! Although I ran into a problem, DCS won’t let me assign right stick for designator slew (at this point I should specify that I was partially using this vid for my Su-25A setup). Any advice?

[@Tuuvas]

It's likely because you need to set that up through the Axis Commands section. Thumbsticks are analog axis controls, and because of that cannot be bound to the individual Left, Right, Up and Down slew button directions

[@ТимофейОстрогляд]

@@Tuuvas I didn’t even think about that… thank you so much!

[@MontyPlayz]

my looking around is wayyyy too sensitive? how do i tone the sens down?

[@Tuuvas]

Unfortunately the only way to do this in DCS is by further decreasing the "Saturation Y" axis tune setting. Another option you could try is setting a curve on top of that, but it may still not be enough without resorting to Steam for mouse control. Check out my below Steam tutorial if you want a more FPS-like camera control where the camera stays where you left it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e4bEfn6bYsqHp8U

If it doesn't allow you to set both modifiers to a single action, double check and make sure you've actually set both bumpers as modifiers to begin with. There should be no reason you can't bind using two modifiers as long as you've set both bumpers as modifiers before binding other controls.

This is likely due to you using a PlayStation style controller, or a very old Xbox 360 controller. Basically, instead of your triggers being a single, shared axis.. they are instead 2 individual axes.

If I already have a full HOTAS setup... Should I even consider using a controller instead? Setting up new planes is such a pain. And, going from Jets to Warbirds is so much different in layouts. There has to be a better - easier way. I refuse to use a keyboard layout and thought having a full HOTAS setup, plus StreamDeck would make things easier. It did not make it easier. That is why I am considering using a Controller instead. I too use the Tobii 5 for viewing.

[@Tuuvas]

Ultimately that decision is yours to make. But my 2 cents is I actually prefer flying with my controller over my full VirPil setup ( i.imgur.com/E5M81gV.png ) because it's so easy to just pickup and play. Sometimes it's a right pain to set everything up.. and the setup process almost makes DCS feel like a chore before it has even begun. Because of that, I prefer to pay with a Xbox controller. Plus there's the added benefit of being able to play DCS on the go with the new handheld PCs coming out recently: i.imgur.com/Gr88PrW.mp4

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

Thank you very much for the thorough response. I really appreciate it. I've been using controllers for gaming since 2007 with Halo 3, and I find that the Xbox controllers have a great feel to them. I still have a wired controller and I plan to try it out. I'll begin with the Su-27, which I think is the easiest, and then progress to the P-51D. Additionally, I want to express my gratitude for creating the various controller setup images for the different modules. You're amazing, my friend! I'll definitely be using them. Thank you once again!

[@RobertHopkinsArt]

I wanted to express my gratitude for sharing the Su-27 setup template, which I am currently implementing. During the process, I encountered the Su-27 Levers Up and Levers Down commands, which initially confused me. However, after some thought, I realized that they referred to the Throttle Levers Up and Down. To avoid confusion for other users, I would recommend changing the command terminology to Throttle Up and Throttle Down. In the long term, I am planning to switch to a VR setup, which is why I am considering using a controller instead of a 2D setup. I believe that a controller will be more suitable for VR, and I appreciate your help and guidance on this matter. Thanks again!

@@RobertHopkinsArt The naming conventions on my layouts are due to two major factors: 1. Searchability - if you take 1 of the words in the name and use the search function, you're probably going to find what you're looking for. For instance, for increasing throttle in the Su-27 there's "Throttle Up", "Throttle Step Up", "Throttle Left Up", "Throttle Step Up Left"... etc. But, there's only one "Throttle Levers - UP". 2. Space - I simply run out of space and cannot fit the whole name of the control binding.

I comprehend that fitting the words onto the graphics you designed was challenging due to limited space. Nonetheless, your graphics were carefully planned and executed. Thank you once more for your effort!

What if I have ps4 controller

[@Tuuvas]

Everything would still work except the rudder controls on triggers. To get around this, you can try running DCS through steam. Either use the version available through Steam, or add the website version to your Steam library as a non-Steam game and enable PlayStation controller support

[@jowey_2077]

Ooooh so thats why i could fire my guns, damn it, I have DCS launched in steam big picture.@@Tuuvas
