Falcon 4 BMS 1 - Build 40105

My thoughts about this build
One thing that BMS have added that is really useful from a HOTAS point of view are some additional CMS keystrokes. It is now possible to separate the ECM on (consent) and off (standby) functions allowing for much more definitive control than using a toggle. ACMDS Auto is still available by pressing the CMS hat left, but this is also canceled by pressing the hat right (standby).

The other thing that I've been playing around with is a trackIR, this changes the way the 3D views are used and required some tuning of my files to make it work at it's best. Instead of padlocking, pressing DMS down now selects 3D view on its first press and then toggles between activating and deactivating padlock view. Of course everything is reset when switching back to 2D view. One drawback of using the TIR is that glance-back in 2D no longer functions.
