Hey. Is there any program or addon that lets you map more joystick buttons than the one in orbiter. looking for some advice on this. I did find some already, just wanted to know which are the good ones to use. Thanks

FBW is a beautiful addon, yes, but it doesn't support button mappings (and no reason for it to do so). For that you need an external program. Depending on what joystick you have, it may have a profiler software included which can map buttons to keys.

If not, use the google to find one, such as Joykey (never used it, may not be everything you need).

I continue to use Joy2Key for button mapping, and am quite satisfied with it.

Thanks Guys. Can FBW support any joystick?

As far as I know, it can support anything that Windows recognizes as a joystick. It worked with my wireless 360 controller, so...yeah.
