x52 Pro binding without profile: Quick question.
AKA; The First Boss.

I originally bought DCS Warthog in 2013, and now after having a hotas for a few years I'm finally getting around to playing the game.

I've done quite a bit of searching on ingame and profile binds, and I would like to emulate this bind set as best as possible, without using a x52 Pro profile if possible. I also do not own a Track IR, so I will need to work around that fact and bind looking to somewhere a bit easier on the keyboard, the stick, or maybe even a second stick.

I can sort of work my way around this, but I am getting stumped on the "Mode Select" switch, which toggles the DMS/CMS/TMS modes.

Is there a bind ingame that toggles these functions? If so, what is its name, and under which submenu is it? Or is it something that I would need to make a simple profile for.

I'm not against making a short profile of my own, I just don't want a premade complex one. Why? Not programmed any profile before so I want to learn, I also want to learn the binds as I go, to get the feel of them and tweak as needed. Also, for the simple reason people play this sim with the likes of a T16000m, which is a great stick (I own one for offhand in Star Citizen), but doesn't have the fancy programming feature that the x52 sticks do.

So, if they can do it, I want to too.

The bind list is incredibly complicated and indepth, but I am willing to invest time into it actually learning the binds, and not just copying someone elses work and not actually feeling out the binds for myself.

So, if anyone can tell me if there is such a thing as a DMS/CMS/TMS toggle in game, and where it is, or if its something I am going to profile, please let me know! Thanks.
