CONTROL DESCRIPTION
CONTROL DESCRIPTION – THROTTLE
CONTROL DESCRIPTION – STICK
To avoid mistakenly binding inputs when customizing/configuring controls in certain games and sims, move the Landing Gear Lever 23,24 and 3-Way Rotary Knob 25,26,27 to the middle zone between two buttons while customising.
This is necessary because in the normal state, one of the buttons registers as ‘depressed’ or ‘active’ unless the dial and lever is set in between two inputs.
SYSTEM SETUP
SYSTEM SETUP – ATTACH STICK MODULE TO STICK BASE
DO NOT ROTATE THE STICK HANDLE DURING THIS PROCESS. This may damage the device.
- Look at the gold contacts on the bottom of the stick handle, and rest them onto the matching slots on the base. Hold the stick handle in place with the right hand.
- Using the left hand, slowly rotate the stick base’s threaded ring anticlockwise (depicted in the diagram in blue) to attach the stick base and handle together, ensuring the threads are lined up and not crossed. Do not over-tighten.
SYSTEM SETUP – CONNECT TO PC
- Connect VelocityOne Flightdeck to 2x USB ports on PC by attaching the supplied USB cables as shown. If you have a headset with a standard 3.5mm connection, you can connect it to the Stick Base.
- Flightdeck connects as two separate devices and can be used independently of each other as well as a complete HOTAS flight system.
SYSTEM SETUP – ADJUST STICK HEIGHT
- To Adjust Stick height, push and hold the height adjust button inwards to release the lock.
- The stick handle can slide up or down to accommodate different sized hands.
FLIGHT TOUCH DISPLAY
FLIGHT TOUCH DISPLAY – OVERVIEW
Located on the throttle module, the Flight Touch Display (FTD) combines real-time sim status indication* with advanced customization with up to 39 extra button functions set to your configuration.

FLIGHT TOUCH DISPLAY – PANELS
Flight Touch Display (FTD) gives access to an array of virtual buttons, switches and wheels. Using the VelocityOne Flight Hangar desktop software it is possible to customize the theming of the panels and touch inputs, as well as assign different key bindings. Navigate between panels using the left and right arrows, and activate inputs with touch.
Available themes include:
- Combat (default)

The FTD can display up to 3 panels, each consisting of a set of virtual buttons, switches or wheels. These touch inputs are assigned to keyboard inputs Q W E R T Y etc. These can be displayed using an overlay in the settings page of the FTD (‘Key Bindings’) to determine which touch button is assigned to each virtual keyboard key.
FLIGHT TOUCH DISPLAY – SETTINGS – KEY BINDINGS

When the throttle control passes through a set slider position, the corresponding button press will be momentarily activated.
- Deadzones and haptic feedback can be quickly toggled on and off.
FLIGHT TOUCH DISPLAY – SETTINGS – REAR SCROLL WHEEL MODE

HEAD UP DISPLAY (HUD) – SETTINGS – PRO AIM
- Integrated from our range of console controllers, the Pro Aim feature helps to temporarily reduce the sensitivity of the main stick axes. This is useful for making critical in-flight adjustments or honing your aim on an enemy fighter.
- The ‘Set Button’ option enables any of the listed programmable buttons to be set to initiate the Pro Aim feature. The assigned button must be pressed and held. Note that any previously assigned functions to the button will also be output at the same time as Pro Aim.
- The ‘Set Level’ option tunes the total reduction in sensitivity, when the assigned Pro Aim button is pressed. The higher the setting the larger the reduction in sensitivity across all axes.
HEAD UP DISPLAY (HUD) – SETTINGS – RUDDER LOCK
- Rudder lock blocks the input from the twist action of the stick. This can be used in situations where yaw control is not required, or if the stick is being used in conjunction with a set of Rudder Pedals.
HEAD UP DISPLAY (HUD) – SETTINGS – AUDIO
