Home >> Technical Guides >> Technical Checklist >> SRS Setup Guide
If you're flying multiple aircraft types, you might need somewhat different settings for the different types. Instead of manually changing these settings when you switch aircraft, you're encouraged to use SRS profiles, automatically adjusting the settings depending on what aircraft you're currently using. Using profiles also has advantages even if you only fly one aircraft, as it distinguishes spectator mode from flying mode. The following guide goes through the setup.

* Repeat step 3-4 for all the modules you are using. - Change PROFILE from "default" to the one you created. (e.g FA-18 if you created a F/A-18C profile)
- Setup profile according to the instructions for Fixed/Rotary Wing below
* Repeat step 5-6 for all the profiles you created.
