Anyone use it?

One of my backgrounds is combat flight sims. We usually have throttles and joysticks (Hands On Throttle & Stick) with more buttons than I have brains. The joystick axis can be set to be the mouse, or the mouse nib that most have.

Maybe as a button tree only?

The jist is the hundreds of buttons and combo presses can be programed as key strokes or key combos.

One person I know has actually made a profile where he does his typing from his HOTAS.

4 8 way hats and a load of buttons on the joystick itself.

The throttle has hats and more buttons.

Anyone ever do this for CAD or know some one who has?
