I've returned to a heli start-up situation. (my first love  :) since FS98)

Anyway, I like the control sensitivities to be Sensitivity 100% Null 0% for helis, but I can't seem to save the control sensitivities in the saved flight.

Seems that in earlier FS versions I could save sensitivities, but not in 04.

Whassup?

No idea, but I just have my general joystick sensitivities set to the most sensitive settings, for all aircraft.

You have the right idea though, of using the most sensitive settings for helicopters.  ;)

If you set the general sensitivities for all situations, and not just for saved flights, does it save them?

Just adjust the settings in Realism, e.g. torque etc. Don't max them out as it doesn't work that well with FS9 and helis

Re: Joystick settings for Heli's -

The recommendations for Joystick settings are quite different than what I expected but this man really knows what he talking about.

Good luck.

Thanks for the replies...

I have the realism settings set, that isn't the problem.

I want to set the Control (Joystick) sensitivities to Sensitivity 100% - Null 0% SAVE a FLIGHT and have it that way when the saved flight starts.

I set the CONTROL SENSITIVITY, save the flight, when I start it at a later time it has changed back to default and I have to change them again. Every time...

I'm pretty sure sensitivities are a global setting.
I think the only way to do that kind of thing is with a profiler for which ever stick you are using, and then use different profiles for different aircraft, but I'm not sure if many (if any?) allow you to profile axis' or sensativities as compared to just buttons. I know that with my Saitek AV8R I would like to be able to profile my dual throttles so that I can choose left and right engines, or throttle and prop. But I'll be buggered if I can figure it out.......so throttle and prop is where it stays
