help with profile


Recommended Posts

I am trying to figure out how to set up a profile for a helicopter.  I read about setting the  collective to throttle and throttle to mixture axis but when I do that the only thing that works is the throttle axis and that controls everything.  The mixture does nothing.  How am I suppose to set this up? I am familiar with aircraft but not rotor.

If your throttle axis "controls everything", I think you must have multiple assignments. Are you assigning only in FSUIPC? You need to check that controllers are disabled in FS.

 

If this is a question specifically about FSUIPC assignment, then, as a strictly non-helo user (hate the things) I can only really say assign in whichever way works in FS. The controls won't be different, especially if you assign using the FS controls option rather than the "direct to FSUIPC" option. Some add-ons don't like the controls used in the latter method. But also this depends on whether you calibrate in FSUIPC or not.
