I have one Flight Stick, VKB Gladiator NXT EVO.
I spent around 2 weeks trying to configure the mappings for it.
Trying to learn the FS2024 Controls program.
I never understood when the program would display the box,
“You need to create a new Preset”. WTF?
I new that I didn’t want to have many Presets that I would have to keep up with and what was mapped to each Preset.
In the end, I now have 3 Presets:
Generic - VKB Gladiator NXT
Airplane - VKB Gladiator NXT
Specific - VLB Gladiator NXT
And , I assign these to every plane.
So, I’m still in FS2020 mode.
For anyone new coming to this task, here is my findings on the Controls program.
