Before you go off screaming at me I would Like to tell you that I did read "Topic: dual sticks, throttles and rudders" and my question is different.

I would like to use the now not obsolete original Wingman and my now "replacement" sick for my "broken" friend of the same brand.

I realized I could fix the rudder problem and now I will have 2 joysticks...If I manage to fix the first.

WHat I would like to do is plug both joysticks at the same time to use in FS not as a CO-pilot thing as mentioned before but more as "extra buttons." THe thing is if I plug both at the same time, both joysticks have the same button assingnment. (eg. If I push either stick foreward, it will move the elevator) what I would like to do is push one stick foreward to move the elevator and one back to do something else, Like trim or something. Maybe like a program or some kind of tweak.

Anyone know of a way I could do that, or if it can be done what would be a good combination. Maybe one controls the plane while the other stick controls the gear flaps and trip. I know its unrealistic but that would kick @$$ kinda like controlling a robor... in a way


Btw I have windows XP home

and if that made any sense at all, thanks in advance  

Hmmm, I have heard of it being done, but I have no clue.

In the assignments section you will see a choice between controller 1 and 2.  The trick is remembering what you assigned all of the buttons to..

just a thought as I use only 1 Wingman, so havent tried this...

have you tried running the Wingman Profiler with both sticks connected to see if you can remap the controls on the second stick?

The Wingman installer for WinXP is available at Logitech if you need it (lgs425enu.exe, 8Mb download).

Best of luck and fair skies..

Randombeaner,
