Xbox FS2024: Setting Up the Velocity One Flightstick & Fixing the Errant Default Bindings!

[@danielmcarthur007]

Trim well fix...😂🎉😂❤🤓2024 Mine works just fine and I have it on ANALOGUE AXIS Through the Flightstick... It works in A-10 (both Of them) and F-22, I have never had a problem in the 2024... I think in 2020 I did just a sensitivity on the trim well to get it to stop jumping...

[@Huddison]

Thanks Daniel, thought I had better pin one of these comments regarding the trim - that's great news.

[@geibre]

Works for me as well - set stick to analog as stated and bind to "Joystick slider x". If it's difficult to find from "search by input", go to "Elevator Trim axis (-100 to 100%)", click the cogwheel and select "Joystick slider x" in the list of binding alternatives to the left.

[@OlavoGiampietro]

@@danielmcarthur007 I tried using tbe analog option but Axis not working. Can you add here the config you are using?

[@antonioduboygalaz3840]

@@Huddison Hello, Thank you for this excellent video! The dead zone for the H2 hat switch has helped a lot! After a lot of experimenting I have been lucky to get the trim-wheel working (on PC, but I think it will work also on XBox). This is how: 1) In the Flightstick menu (the screen on the joystick itself, by moving the grey ring at the bottom of the joystick): set the trim-wheel response as digital buttons (not analogue axis). 2) Then in FS2024 controls menu, assign the button 13 (to elevator trim down) 3) The most important thing: click on the "cog" icon for elevator trim down and make sure that you check the mark for "INPUT REPETITION" 4) Do the same as steps 2 and 3 for button 14 (assing to elevator trim UP and make sure that you check the mark for "INPUT REPETITION") I hope it works for all of you 🙂

[@MrCMHUDDY]

Before I even watch this.... Thank you in advance. I had decided to wait for this very video, having used your velocity one set-up in MSFS20. I'm very happily surprised to see this drop so soon. Much appreciated from a fellow Huddy :)!!!

Same 😂 I lost the will to live with the 2024 v1fs default settings and played a few times (once I got in) on controller only. If only Microsoft had a cloud platform we could import old 2020 settings from 😉

[@billmccutcheon6855]

Well, it looks like the battle between Microsoft and Velocity One. I was on the phone yesterday with both companies. Neither wants to accept responsibility for the problem with the reversed elevator problem. We tried everything we could think of to no avail. So no we just sit and wait for the team that will accept responsibility and fix it.

@@Huddison thanks for all you do but we need the xbox configuration for the alpha xpc and the bravo since msfs2024 as it as 1 unit. The xbox community is waiting. There’s nothing online.

The trim wheel works for the elevator trim. First, turn off the”AI Auto-Trim” in “Assistances”. The map the trim wheel to “Elevator Trim Axis (-100 to 100%)”. And youn need to invert it.

[@Huddison]

Thanks I'll recheck all that.

[@Huddison]

You're welcome

[@TheVKolosov]

I’d say dedicated trim axis do work in a sense, I can move elevator trim in proper direction (had to invert it too). The problem is, it is very imprecise and occasionally I have very big values, may be related to AP on and off. I will try to assign a couple of buttons instead. Overall, very useful video, I did resolve all major problems, like drift and inverted axis too, but it definitely took me much more time. Other than that, using left hat for AP is not bad, but it seems that nothing is left to control views (instrument, landing, custom etc..), cursor and menus like communications. Do you handle all that via gamepad (or mouse which I do not have currently)? Regarding custom profile - you can make it default, but on my XSX after loading the game it still reverts to original settings and I have to reassign it. I am even under impression, that occasionally it happens when you switch planes, for example by going to career mode. Looking forward to see your advanced settings.

[@jockposer]

@@TheVKolosov I did experience the same sudden increase of trim. However I did find that it would eventually settle and level out. Having said that it does need to be fixed. I have also had to go back and choose my saved profile on start up of the game. Maybe saving each profile to the plane instead of the joystick might resolve this

[@ColemanBud]

Perfect! The camera drift was driving me insane and never even thought about trying dead zones. Do you have any tips for the throttle resetting on career mode? Works fine in free flight but not career mode for some reason

Newbie here Huddison, thanks for the video and perfect timing I receive the stick tomorrow. I’m new to the whole thing, Xbox-S , and the Flight Simulator 2024. I’m assuming that while making these changes the stick was already connected to the console, how were you using the mouse? Wirelessly thru the Xbox?

[@Huddison]

I use just a cheap old wired usb mouse.

[@vincentcimino1963]

@ ok thanks and sorry for the ridiculous question. I just finished watching your video on setting up the Xbox controller for MSFS24 , followed step by step and that really helped and gave me a better understanding of it all, I appreciate that please keep the videos coming. Thank you

[@corviddy]

thank you so much for these videos, as long as I follow you exactly I always save myself grief. I am what the MSFS community would call a noob so bear with me on this question. Everything showed in this video worked perfectly for me except for the hat controller. With each of the directions it gave me additional joystick bindings as follows: JS POV Right + JS Button 12, LEFT (11), UP (11) and DOWN (13). at first I thought this meant that it was also reading my controller, but when I tried to find those buttons on the controller it reminded me I wasn’t in the correct profile for that. I’m not sure what to make of 11 12, 13 and 14 “dual bindings”, as it didn’t appear to happen to you in the video. Ignore?

[@Huddison]

Is that with H1 (left hand Hat) or H2 (the other)?

[@corviddy]

H1 as directed

[@dannykievit7463]

to make the trim wheel register in the sim you have to move the trim wheel all the way to either to top or the bottom

[@wlflightlr]

Hello Huddison! It would be great if you could do a tutorial video on the Thrustmaster Hotas One, mainly to show how to set up the hat switch to look Freeley around the cockpit in MSFS 2024.You did a great video on this subject for MSFS2020, thanks so much for doing these tutorials, they are a huge help!

@huddison THANKS for this video, I'm on series X and this has helped a lot. FYI i noticed that there is a controller icon now in the 2024 quick access menu in game, just click the active pause then controller icon and get instant access to the remapping page without going in and out of the main settings page 👍 also, that cockpit free look drift problem also seems to happen with the regular controller, not only the V1FS, which is just baffling lack of testing on the xbox version. Kind of weird that they had the xbox insiders beta programme for 2020, but didn't do a preview build for 2024 🤔

[@sirlambo]

Thanks so much for the video! My trim wheel was working fine (Xbox Series X) so didn't need to change that. One thing I'm not liking with the stick, compared to MSFS2020 is the amount of what appears to be "dead zone" on the pitch and roll axes. It seems like it takes a bit more for the game to "do anything" once you start moving, while the 2020 was responding to commands straight away. Are you encountering that issue? Any idea how to fix it? (the dead zone sensitivity is already at 0 on those axes) Thanks again!

[@Huddison]

It felt similar to FS2020 with my testing; it's very much a personal preference thing though.

[@hammerpgh]

Very useful video even though I'm not on the V1 its still interesting to see how you set your controls up 👍 I assume you log them all down on a crib sheet for use during flights. If definitely struggle to remember some of them lol I may go back and delete my current profiles and start afresh in case there's any conflicts i'm but aware of.

[@Huddison]

I typically fly with them a few times to memorise them; or select/search each button & axis to see what's bound where.

[@hyperion2502]

Some ideas. The b10 button (the big grey button in front of the stick) can be used to trigger secondary commands. Example. I use the hat 1 for Trims. With the b10 triggered its 4 different personnalised camera. B17 and b16, have 2 other commands when the b10 is triggered. Same with all buttons under my left hand. It gives so many commands. And on the tarmac, my b10 is my brake.

[@hyperion2502]

Of course, you can use other buttons as secondary trigger to create even more commands.

[@Huddison]

Good inputs.

[@TempleClass]

Trim wheel is working for me in the -100 to 100 axis. The mouse causing the cockpit camera to fly around is still a problem though.

A bit off topic, but on the V1 yoke the trim wheel doesn’t register in the settings but it works in planes. It’s inverted in some and normal in others, but it works.
