Has anyone been able to map the g1-g6 keys on a corsair keyboard. I cannot assign these keys to anything on any title not only just msfs. It’s annoying have 6 extra keys that are essentially useless.
You can’t assign something to G1-G6 directly.
You need to set up the G keys in the Corsair iCue or Logitech Gaming Software.
(depending on your keyboard) and assign what ever you used in msfs.
G key are just shortcuts to key/macro for the keyboard.
Lets say you want to use CRTL/PageUp to toggle landing gear.
-In msfs, assign CRTL/PageUp to Toggle Landing Gear.
-In your keyboard software, set up CRTL/PageUp to G1.
(name it so you can remember it if needed later)
Now all you need to do is press G1, not CRTL/PageUp.
G keys are especially helpful to multi keystroke inputs.
You’ll either have to go through the Stream Deck app which is going to be pretty hard to do and get them mapped into MSFS, or you can use Spad Next and then add the G-keys as a stream deck device. Then it would be quite simple to program any function at all to the keys.
I’ve programmed an entire overhead panel with my stream deck via Spad Next.
within the Corsair software ( iCUE )
Good note @MichaMMA , I’ll add that.
Depends on the keyboard, I have an older G710+ that can’t use icue. Logitech Gaming Software for this.
Thank you everyone for the reply’s. I’ll see if I can play around with it later.
