Hi guys,

well basically the title sais it all. I was wondering if it's possible to steer your plane with a mouse like in X-plane? For the moment i am unable to use a joystick and was wondering if there is other way to control the plane than with a keyboard.

Thanks in advance for your help guys.

Yes you can. In the Learning Center under Key Topics click on Controllers. Under Related links select Using the mouse.

Note that in the instructions it states to press Shift+Z to toggle mouse as controller. I believe it should be Ctrl+Y. Check your 'Mouse Flight Control (on/off)' key assignment.

You may also want to change the sensitivity and null zone under Settings>Controls>Calibration tab.
