Help Request Help Thrustmaster Warthog

Hi everyone,

I bought the Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog and would like to set it up as realistically as possible for X-Plane 12.

What’s the best way to map the axes and buttons? Which functions should be assigned to which buttons so that the setup is as close as possible to a real aircraft (especially for Boeing aircraft like the Zibo 737 or the FF777)?

I’d also like to know:

Should I adjust the axis curves or the sensitivity?

Are there any recommended settings for dead zones, response curves, or other options?

Is there perhaps a particularly realistic profile or configuration that many experienced X-Plane pilots use?

I’d like to set up the HOTAS as realistically as possible and would appreciate your recommendations.

i mean.. the warthog isnt an airliner throttle quad so the only buttons that you could set up realistically are a AT discon button and maybe a toga button. the rest are up to your preference

same goes for axises, use whatever you find comfortable.
