Winwing Ursa Minor Fighter joystick configuration

Configuration for the Winwing Ursa Minor Fighter joystick, partially using JoyToKey for a couple of keys.

Introduction

I made a configuration for the Ursa Minor but since the game doesn't support controller more than 32 buttons (Ursa minor has 44), I had to complete this configuration with a small JoyToKey[joytokey.net] mapping for 3 buttons.

Joystick layout

Function	Mapping	Key mapping
Roll / Pitch / Yawn	Joystick X / Y / Z axes
Throttle	Joystick slider
Change view	Left Hat (Ry / Rx axes)
Fire machine gun	Button 37	Left-Ctrl
Fire missile/weapon	Button 35	Space
Target	Button 20
Speed	Button 22
Change weapon	Button 39	C
Switch radar map	Button 7
Fire Flare	Button 28
Change view	Button 5
Autopilot	Button 6
Pause	Button 2

works great

From what I can see in the PDF manual it has fewer buttons (22) so you just need to edit the input.ini file to set your desired layout.
