I finally downloaded DCS and have been flying the SU-25T to learn the features of DC.
I've been using the attached keyboard diagram, but several keys that are found on a full keyboard are not available on the right side of a notebook's keyboard (HP).
Other than adding a full size keyboard, is there an method to add these commands so they may be used on a notebook?
Thanks.

You could just reprogram the function in the aircraft controls window to use a key other than the R Crtl key. Looking at the diagram, it looks like some other function keys are available where the "purple" R Crtl" key is used.

The beauty (beast) of DCS is that you have flexibility to program just about any key to any function on any aircraft (ugh) and you have to do it for any aircraft you acquire! (As you can see, I'm torn up about all the work...)

Yes, you don't even have to delete the old control assignment. You should be able to assign it as an additional same function.
 
I'm already seeing the benefits (hard work) of aircraft specific function assignments, especially with add on hardware.
Taking this slowly. Simple thigs such as "screen shots" are anything but simple, since each aircraft may or may not have this function assigned.

Have not even dared to enter the realm of adding a freeware aircraft.
