AIM Ghost Joysticks

The AIM Ghost Joysticks are the virtual joystick devices the AIM Cockpit Manager creates for Falcon BMS. Each one carries up to 128 buttons — far past what joy.cpl can show — which is the main reason this tool exists.

Full 128-button map

Select an AIM Ghost Joystick in the sidebar and you'll see all 128 buttons and its 8 axes, live.

Button → cockpit control

Hover any button and AIM Joystick Probe tells you which F-16C cockpit control it maps to — for example Button 1 — FIRE & OHEAT. The same label appears next to the last pressed readout when you press it.

Button control-name tooltip

This makes it easy to confirm a panel control is reaching the right virtual button before you bind it in BMS.

The labels come from the AIM Cockpit Manager F-16C catalog. Buttons that aren't mapped to a control just show their number.
