Worked a treat! Thanks 😃

Here are my settings. Should Exclude THROTTLEn_SET be checked?? Is there something wrong with the selections on pg 1 of Main Flight Controls in Joystick Calibration? Also where is the "“Map to 4 throttles” option"

P3DV4.5 Win7 Pro Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas X current reference: Single Engine Turboprop profile I have spent the last three nights doing searches here and on the usual forums for a way to implement triggering a beta range on my MV PC-6, MV Turbine Otter, Aerosoft Twin Otter, and Aerosoft OV-10 Bronco. A lot of the research pointed up solutions that required using a throttle quadrant that contained a button at the end of travel to trigger reverse. That is not applicable to my throttle. My throttle/power lever quadrant has a detent at roughly the mid point of the travel. I would like forward thrust to begin at the mid point detent and increase to the top of travel. I would like reverse thrust to begin at the mid point detent and increase until the bottom of the travel. I am totally illiterate at coding, so if you suggest a LUA or LINDA solution please include a verbatim txt file example so I can "monkey see - monkey do" it into FSUIPC. Thanks in advance for the accumulated wisdom and brain power represented here. Obie FSUIPC6.ini FSUIPC6.log

I have instituted the Rudder Trim Left and Rudder Trim Right settings as per your recommendations, and it seems to be working as I desire. See attached pix for my implementation in FSUIPC axes. I know the values aren't equal in the ranges but I edited them in the .ini. Kindly provide further suggestions if needed. Yes I take your point and hope I have implemented that properly. Thanks for bearing with me. I am not very code savvy. I'm more comfortable with a wrench in my hands fixing a vintage motorbike, than typing on a keyboard. FSUIPC6_ini.zip FSUIPC6_log.zip

Here is the discussion where jetblst showed me how to set up the rocker switch as a rudder trim axis. The reversed rudder settings are working as I wanted them to be in the DHC2. However it is actuating the trim, it is effective. I may backup the .ini and try to to set the axis control to Rudder Trim Set and see what happens just for grins. Here are the latest ini and log FSUIPC6_log.zip FSUIPC6_ini.zip

UPDATE: It seems like this problem only manifests on Ant's T-28's I was using for testing. The rudder trims seem to work on most, if not all, of my other aircraft. Also the rudder trims work but are reversed on the MilViz DHC-2. I recently upgraded to the latest FSUIPC for P3D4.5 and was trying to implement the rocker switch on the TM Hotas X as a rudder trim axis. I have tried 10 ways from Sunday but I still am doing something wrong. Some of you forum members may immediately spot my problem. Any suggestions or corrections would be immensely appreciated.

I recently did a reinstall of FSX-SE due to some problems I was having. I downloaded 4.971 but the installer said I had a newer version and wouldn't install it. When I tried to register the version I had, it did not automatically supply my key as it did in the past. I had written the key on a word doc as I do with all purchases but apparently it got purged when I uninstalled FSX-SE. Is there a way to recover the key by the purchaser's name or email??

DISREGARD solution found. spurious entry in FSX controls was causing the malfunction of the Gear Toggle command. ObieGearToggle.zip

Hi, I am using FSUIPC to control toe pedal brakes with Saitek Cessna rudder pedals. I would like more braking friction from the pedals. What parameter do I adjust for more braking action? Thanks.

Hi Pete,

I had everything running great last night. I carefully made a copy of my .ini as a backup (with a different name of course) so I would have a reference. I logged on to fly tonight from Paine Field WA, PNW NA to Port Angeles in a Twin Otter X and everything loaded fine. I could use my pan view fine as it is the only button on my TF Hotas X that is routed directly to FSX. None of my other controls or buttons would work. The only thing different that I can remember from my configuration last night is that tonight I was using FSFO V2 as a verbal checklist. I am very frustrated. I thought I had this wonderful addon finally dialed in. If anyone has a chance to look at my log and ini files and see if they can deduce what is going on I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.

Will do. Thanks again. Slim

Thanks for the reply Pete. Hope your holiday went well. Pan View is not assigned in FSUIPC. (but I will be experimenting with doing so in the future) Sorry for the outdated Log file. Somehow all the Hotas X assignments ended up assigned to the rudder pedals so I will implement your AutoAssign suggestion. Best Regards, Slim

While I hope Pete is enjoying his holiday, it seems my FSUIPC has decided to take one as well. I use a Thrustmaster Hotas X with all buttons (except the coolie hat which is mapped to pan view thru FSX) and axes mapped thru FSUIPC. I no longer have the use of any FSUIPC functions. I know the USB connection is OK since the pan view still works. I have attached both my INI and LOG files in the hopes that they will reveal my problem. Thanks in advance for any help offered.
