Hi Alan,
Out of the blue my flaps just quit working. It shows the sensor number changing and corresponding output to FS changing but my flaps don't move. Also, in the cal screen, the 'set flap notches' is not available. This was in vs 4.1, i updated to 4.1.3 and am having the same issues. Very strange since i have had about 500 hours trouble free with the flaps settings.
Thanks,
Rob

Rob,

Will check it out on my system.
Been a few weeks since I used my throttle.
Pulled throttle out of sim to do upgrades.
You know how it is - next new sim feature is just over the horizon :)

Regards,
Alan.

Alan,

I unassigned it, shutdown, restarted the software, reassigned and now all is well.:)
Next question, i sometimes fly 3 and 4 engine aircraft but since my 2throttles
go thru fs2phidget, fsuipc doesn't 'see' them and therefore does't MAPP them all together like the option is there to do. SO i have t contol the other engines with the keyboard. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Rob

Rob,

Steve Diamond has made same request.
Am adding option to tie throttles.
Want to do this my reversor levers.
Coming soon to a screen near you !

Great news!!:D

One other thing, isn't there always:p !

I have my reversers on micro switches and not pots. You helped me set this up when you were here last time and now it it has disapeared like the flaps did. I can't get it to work:confused: We had it so when the switch was activated, it sent -4096 to FS which gave it reverse thrust/
