    FLIGHT CONTROL OPERATES IN REVERSE!!!

    Just finished a fine looking yoke, only to discover that when I push forward, the plane goes up and the reverse when I pull back!! Assignments has a box marked 'reverse' I ticked it but it wont stay? I presume that this might solve my problem if the box would stay ticked? Wierd. I would reverse the pot end connections, but don't want to shove plus volts to the wrong place!!
    Any idea's guys?

    Thanks.

    Re: FLIGHT CONTROL OPERATES IN REVERSE!!!

    If you dont want to re-wire, then here are 2 quick things to try.............

    1. As mentioned in your post, tick the reverse box in FSX again. open a flight then save the flight as default. Go back and make sure the box is still ticked. If so, exit and re-open to confirm that it stuck this time.

    2. If the above approach doesn't work, then go into FSUIPC and add the yoke axis. FSUIPC will also give you the option to reverse the polarity of your yoke potentiometer.

    If you dont own FSUIPC, you will eventually.
