I have finished both parts now and everything has worked perfectly. You have made the tutorials easy to follow for a beginner. I thought I had a problem with the flaps, as did Andrew Rhodes, but I think I solved the problem by turning off Assisted Takeoff - please refer to my reply to his post.

[@SiHeaton1]

I finally figured out how to use thrust reversers on the jumbo jets without hold or toggle. Just goto settings and change throttle 1 decrease thrust as lever 2 button beyond detent and same for throttle 2 for lever 3 on velocity levers. Once thrust is at 0 pulling lever 2 and 3 back now decreases throttle into the reverse position. Hope its easy to understand now i dont have to press anything else just pull thrust levers back now and it reverses. Took me ages to figure out 😁

[@serkankizilay]

Thank’s 👍

[@caskraker]

Mark, your tutorials are the best. And I watch all tutorials for this gear. What make yours so excellent is the way you approach your viewers. Just explain how to set a control once (or twice) and rely on the intelligence of the viewer to repeat that for their own assignment. And you concentrate on the things that really matter. In this case which control is best used for a given function on a type of aircraft. One tip: on aircraft without prop control you might assign the vernier prop control to be used as parking brakes. On the aircraft shown the control is also a vernier like one.

[@SimHangerFS]

Yes, brilliant idea for the parking brake! 👍

[@sethkazzim731]

Smart, I’m going to do that.

[@sethkazzim731]

Took a while to figure this one out: Joystick L-Axis 9 -, then on press.

[@caskraker]

@@sethkazzim731 There might be an even better way. Since today TB released new firmware, that makes it possible to map reverse thrust to the four top levers by way of using the full downward move of all those as a new button. If you don’t need all of those levers for engines and have set one up as gear up/down you could use the down move for parking brakes. That will not interfere with gear up/down as parking brakes only make sense with your landing gear being down.

[@sethkazzim731]

@@caskraker True, I will do that for my TBM-930 profile, your suggestion works nicely with my Cessna 152 once I got it in sync.

[@stefanblackadder5236]

Thank you so much for these profiles! I got a new V1 today. I could not make the flap lever work, it kept “stuttering” in every plane neither going completely flaps down. I’m going to assign the flaps to two unused buttons but I’m not sure which one is best. Okay I figured out I had some assists that were still on. Thanks for all your help.

[@piperarrowpilot9325]

For reverse thrust I’m using toggle reverse thrust and mapping it to Joystick L-axis 8+ (pulling the black Venturi throttle stick towards you) It didn’t work but my theory would be that that “button” would activate reverse thrust and then I could push it back in to deactivate and do the same with the prop feather. Wonder why I can’t get that to work? Any idea why it won’t let that be a work around?

[@kgiesselman]

First and foremost, thanks for all three videos. The profiles you have created are a great start to get one in the air fast. The problem I am having is with the twin turboprop profile, propeller pitch isn't working properly. It does work properly in other profiles. The axis shows a full range of motion in the controller programmer but in the sim the controller is restricted to the lowest 25% of the range. I can move the pitch full range with the mouse but as soon as I touch the propeller control it jumps back down to the bottom of its range. Thoughts?

[@Rick-ik2dd]

Of course, as soon as I fiddled around with the reverse thrust question, Turtle Beach releases a firmware update (and accompanying instructions) that now make the detent/reverse thrust functionality work as it should have from day 1. Kudos to TB for solving that issue so quickly.

[@PrinceBarin77]

Literally just spent the day configuring mine and then reads this. D’oh! 😂. Great news though, thanks.

[@PrinceBarin77]

Except having just updated Firmware to 1.1.0, it doesn’t work. Firstly the detent action only seems to work ONCE when recording inputs in the control settings - once recorded for one of the inputs, they stop working. Secondly, the input recorded by the Xbox does not match what TB advise in the instructions. It is supposed to be Buttons 41-44 but I actually get Joystick L-Axis 2+ (or close variations). Have given up and reverted to the suggestions here.

[@Rick-ik2dd]

@@PrinceBarin77 That's exactly what happened to me. In order to get buttons 41-44 to show up, I had to force-quit MSFS, remove the VF1 USB cable and then start MSFS from scratch. Then everything worked as expected. It's all just a tiny bit fiddly right now, but after a few fits and starts it seems stable now.

[@PrinceBarin77]

@@Rick-ik2dd Thank you!! I think the “quick resume” status of my game was the issue. As you suggested, force quit the game, restarted everything and voila! All sorted. Much appreciated 🍻

[@neilmackey9626]

Thanks!

[@neilmackey9626]

Mark, you are the ABSOLUTE BEST! You must have been a teacher in this or a past life...your instruction is concise, well-narrated and well-filmed, and I'm sure that I (as well as many, MANY others!) have greatly benefited from your experience. Glad you're here and dedicated to helping others... Couple of questions for you: 1. I've copied profiles over as you showed in Parts 1 and 2 and have stopped (for the time being) after setting up V1F_single_TR. Will get to twins and jets a bit later. When it came to setting up the upper right stick on the throttle quadrant for flaps axis, it programmed OK but when I go for a test flight and watch the flaps lever on the console, it moves sort of "herky-jerky". I can hear the "noise" of the flaps moving up/down and see them moving if I go to external view. It just doesn't seem to work as smoothly as it did when you demo'd it in your test flight. QUESTION: Could having "all assists" on when doing those test flights be interfering with the settings, or do the assists work ONLY in training and not in free flight? If it's not the assists, I must have mis-entered something and will have to go back a profile or two. 2. At this point, I have some "unassigned" buttons, namely, HAT-1 up/down, and B9/B10 on the programmable buttons on the TQ above the vernier controls. Any suggestions for things to program those to? I also don't have anything assigned to POV-2/External...best just to program that to an external 360 freelook? Finally, glad to see TB is on the ball and put out an update/instructions for the reverse thrust issue. (I liked how you had it set up on HAT-1 up/down but might as well do it TB's way as it seems a bit more...authentic). While I haven't gotten as far as twins and jets yet on the profiles, setting it up for one stick was pretty easy...pretty much the same thing for multi-engines? Cheers, and keep up the GREAT work! 🙂

[@SimHangerFS]

@@neilmackey9626 thanks Neil, glad you found it useful 😀and thank you for supporting the channel, much appreciated. Unassigned buttons could be assigned to autopilot functions. Pilot assist does interfere with these settings as your setting flaps up and your copilot might be trying to set flaps down for example. Turn off pilot assist when checking assignments. 👍

[@LaIniestra]

Thank you so much, it was a challenge for me since my game is in Spanish and not everything is in the same place, but it helped me a lot. My husband bought me the controller for my birthday and I haven’t been able to use it because of the configuration; now the issue is that in-game, it doesn’t detect the VF controller…

[@pradeepn77]

You are such a life saver! I'm very new to MSFS and VelocityOne and I was having extremely hard time trying to figure out all the controls and somehow found my way to your videos which is very helpful! Thank you so much for the detailed guide, I setup my controls exactly as you did! I have a rather silly question and I hope you don't mind me asking - What button or stick is assigned on VelocityOne to do the same function as "Right Stick" on Xbox controller? I'm unable to scroll down/left/right of the screen or even reduce the airspeed of a jet using the knob on the cockpit as it needs to be rotated. Idk if i'm doing it all wrong but it's been very confusing as a newbie.

Brilliant tutorials, I’m a newbie and they have helped a lot. Question: Will you need a Windows PC to do controller firmware updates, or can it be done via the XBOX? I’ve only seen peeps mention downloading the Turtle Beach control Center on Windows 10. ?

im so stuck so on the instruction sheet it says you can use the v1 for cursor but you cant or at least i cant so for me all i can get as far as doing is looking around & then whatever it asks me to do next i cant do because all of the buttons is not doing anything of what its asking me to do...nothing at all so am i supposed to use the pad as well & thats a lot of swapping about & the opposite of immersion . i just dont get it why does it say that tthe v1 can be used as a cursor when it cant at all? what do i do? & also its set to default ...should i have it set to single engine? i tried to follow the first video but got stuck at the first bit when you moved the yoke back & then all the way forward & you got it saying axis 3 but mine said axis 2 when i did it? very very lost right now. do you have to map everything just to start , it kind of says that its got profiles ready to use but obviously it hasnt otherwise id be able to get past the very first basic tutorial & i cant do that

I thought it was a hardware defect on the velocity one however when I swapped with other items on the same level (say spoilers axis) the control was smooth and 1to1 matching in the sim...

[@EzuriStreams]

To whoever this helps, for reverse thruster, they did make the detent a mapable button. But still, none of the hold/toggle reverse options actually put it in reverse. So I mapped that new button to "decrease throttle," and now when I'm at 0 throttle and lower it into the detent, it will go max reverse. So, there is no way to use the 0 to -15% throttle it goes from 0 to max -15% throttle.

Hi Mark thanks for part 1 and 2 I have spent a few hours on this now. When I create a new profile and configure the velocity 1 apply and saving after every configuration. The problem is it does not save the selections that I have made and does not even save the title of the profile. On my last attempt which is the 5th it seems to have saved the selected buttons under the default title and not the single engine basic which I named it. I worry about creating another profile and using the duplicate key and making the changes and re naming. I tried it last time and it did not duplicate from the basic settings what am I doing wrong I have followed your KZbin clips 100% sorry and thanks for the advice.

You might have had the same problem as me Andrew. I went through Mark's tutorial and the flaps didn't work on any of the aircraft.

Mark - Thank you for your tutorials. I am a beginner and would have been completely lost without your lessons. I have a question and am hoping you or someone here can answer. I followed your part 1 and part 2 exactly. But when I set up my flaps axis using the right most level, it works fine in the control options. When I move the lever to the top the bar indicator moves to the right and if I leave the lever at the top, the bar indicator stays to the right. Same happens when I move the lever down. The problem is when I am back in the cockpit and I move the flaps lever, it kind of flickers but no matter where I leave the lever the indicator inside the cockpit snaps back to the center. In your video it nicely stays on the top. I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Many thanks again for your videos and Happy Holidays

Hi I’m using Joystick L-Axis 6, not 6- or 6+, reverse axis is ticked/on ☑️

[@sethkazzim731]

Flap Axis, not the %

[@venkateshnagarajan3751]

Thx Seth. This issue got fixed on its own. I deleted the profile and went through simhanger set up again.

[@butch5187]

Honeycomb yoke and throttle still not available for Xbox, would you recommend This TB accessories instead. Per honeycomb, they don’t have date yet for availability. Thanks

[@SimHangerFS]

I have no date from Honeycomb also. TB is the next best thing.

[@butch5187]

thanks for your quick reply. im on xbox for a long time and just got series x lately, but would like to get on flight sim and get all the right accessories the first time to save money in the long run. i will be following your channel. thanks again

[@butch5187]

xbox has so many versions of the flight sim with the standard edition that comes free with game pass. Would you recommend the standard edition for newbies?

[@SimHangerFS]

@@butch5187 yes, try that and see if it what you want…you can always upgrade to premium or deluxe later.

Mark, Excuse me again, I know I'm boring, but I need another help, when I use the autopilot but even if without this, the joke sometimes makes a quick movement always to the right, I think it's an input problem maybe something conflicts but I can't find the problem, has it happened to any of you? I would like to put a video to make it clearer but I am not authorized. I hope I made myself understood

[@SimHangerFS]

Check under your assistance menu….sounds like you have pilot assist turned on. Turn it off

[@kamilarunkowska4832]

With the flap axis when u said if I move it up and down this will show on the screen, for me it just stays at the same position

[@SimHangerFS]

It should move. Check externally if the flaps are moving. If not then the config is wrong (make sure all pilot assist features are off) or the aircraft you’ve loaded is not using the default config. Check with default aircraft.

[@kamilarunkowska4832]

Hey thanks so much for the fast response I just had to exit the menu then enter in again thanks so much I’m loving the controler

My throttle 0-100 is registering as the same as my aileron and my prop 0-100 registers the same as my elevator. 😔

[@piperarrowpilot9325]

Flaps won’t work on my 747 even though I have the far right lever mapped to flap axis.

[@SimHangerFS]

Works for me, check you have the correct flap axis mapped, there is more than one.

[@piperarrowpilot9325]

@@SimHangerFS I will do that as soon as I get home thanks for making such a great tutorial videos.

joystick button 27 on throttle cut is not doing nothing. Nothing happen.

Under preset manager you can delete all user profiles. The default profiles that come with the unit cannot be deleted.

Wish it had cabin heat key bind

[@Rick-ik2dd]

Mark....there may be a different---better IMHO---way to achieve prop reverse with the VelocityOne. I've been experimenting with the "neutral" setting within the sensitivity settings, with credit to someone on one of the many forums for the idea. I've only done this, so far, on the Grand Caravan and TBM 930, but leaving the throttle binding just with the 0-100% setting (no other buttons/etc. for reverse), only, and setting the neutral sensitivity to around 90-95% makes the throttle go into beta/reverse about where you'd expect it to without having to press any buttons. It also gives you almost the full range of the throttle, whereas before it tended to go into beta/reverse at around 50% of its travel. It doesn't work quite as well with the TBM as the Cessna but, even so, it's more how you'd expect it to function (going into reverse just near and after the detent point). Please give it a go and let meknow what you think.

[@SimHangerFS]

Hey Rick, sounds like a great solution. I’ll give it a go 👍

[@Rick-ik2dd]

@@SimHangerFS After further experimentation, it looks like this is only an effective solution in the single engine turboprop configurations. The "hold reverse" button still seems to be the best way to get into reverse in the twin props and all the jet configs.

MARK!!!!! I REALLY HOPE YOU ARE STILL READING COMMENTS AND SUCH AND RESPONDING BECAUSE I'VE GOT A REAL ONE HERE THAT NOBODY SEEMS TO BRING UP OR DISCUSS!!! So on the actual yoke joystick scteen you have the ability to change colors and uodate firmware and put into training mode....but also theres that other section that has these 3 profiles (Default, Single prop, jet engine).....now unless i missed it from you, arent we supposed to change that profile setting on the yoke screen first, then once You load into MSFS and go to control options, youre also supposed to match which plane or engine type you chose? I thought i Heard someone say one time a while ago that they had to match in order for the buttons and levers to match n sync up perfectly.....then i thought well why is there even a DEFAULT profile to begin with if that's the case??? I really don't understand this part very well and has me somewhat confused as to what im supposed to do there. Do you know by chnace? And what about the training profile also?? How is that related? I can't be the only idiot out there with these questions hahahahaah. Any advice is much appreciated sir. Take care boss!!

[@SimHangerFS]

Hi, the default profiles on the yoke are for ‘’training’’ purposes only. In other words so you can check the buttons/axis in something like windows calibration etc. They serve no useful purpose actually and the setting has no effect in the simulation. To all intents & purposes I ignore them. The peripheral has some default profiles built into MSFS.

[@TheLegendMH12]

@@SimHangerFSMr. Mark, thank you thank you thank you my good man, I cannot tell you how relieved I am to hear you say that because I truthfully had like no way of knowing either way if it was that important or not. Glad to know now though. I sincerely appreciate all you have done here to help newbies and amateurs like myself. Hopefully you dont mind it when people like myself ask you questions....cuz if i cant find an answer online, id much rather ask someone with knowledge and experience than believe everything I read on the net hahaha. take care sir. until next time!

Great. After following the instructions carefully for over an hour, MSFS decides to glitch out and delete the entire settings
