Hi Pete, Did an update on my FSUIPC axis settings and changed from "send to FS" to "send to FSUIPC config" now everything is working as it was before, axis change and so do the joystick configurations which allows me to adjust sensitivity. Cheers Bob

Hi Pete and thanks for all the help inputs. The reason I moved from FS Controls to FSUIPC I was getting "line spikes" with the FS Controls and I never get them with FSUIPC. Other than is minor issue with the calibration menu everything is working GREAT. Tomorrow I am flying KDTW to KLAX after the flight I may do some testing. This sounds terrible but when something is NOT broke don't try to fix it. I have no clue why this just started but FSUIPC is doing what you designed it to do which is to control the controls on my AC, which it does perfect. Cheers Bob

Hi Pete, I did enable one axis in the FS controls and the (ailerons) and they did start of work in the FSUIPC joystick calibration.

When I open FSUIPC I first look at the axis settings which are in the LDS profile. They all work as programmed, then I click on the joystick calibration tab and when I move my yoke or pedals nothing moves. Now a week ago or a little more the calibration items would move and could be set. BTW I only fly the LDS 767, with AS2012 and Radar Contact. Hope this gives you a little more info, as I said the plane flies great, but just this new strange behavior in the FSUIPC tab. Thanks Bob

Thanks Pete for your suggestions, made them to clean up those items you mentioned. However the joystick calibration menu is still inactive. I checked that there are no controls set in FS. I am somewhat hesitant to make further changes since FSUIPC is working great on the LDS 767. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks for any help Bob

Hi Pete, have a simple question. My LDS 767 has a profile setup in FSUIPC using my CHProducts yoke and pedals. Everything is working fine with the profile axis assignments, but the joystick calibration menu is not responding to any yoke or pedal movements. The plane is working just fine with control movements. The calibration menu was working but stopped last week.

Hi Pete, just to check your GSX installation against what has been going on: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/couatl_liveupdate_notes.html Bob

Thanks Pete, Yesterday I started all the programs AS2012, Radar Contact and GSX with my LDS 767 and everything worked perfect. As I stated in my OP, GSX did an update before I started my preflight. To you knowledge does the Couatl Sripting Engine put a adverse load on SimConnect? Cheers Bob

Pete, After starting FSX, with ActiveSky 2012, Radar Contact and GSX all working. FSUIPC disappeared from my menu selection. Some of my profile assignment worked and others like the brakes did not work as assigned. GSX did an update today don't know if this would have caused a problem. FSUIPC has been working perfect for days. Attached is my log file today from KPHX to KDTW Thanks Bob Johnson DTW FSUIPC4.zip

Best news I have heard all day Pete. Thanks Bob

Hi Pete, In the latest build of ASE build 633 beta, there is a statement in the revision document that states: Service Pack 2: Implemented new messaging IPC facilities for 3rd parties to access internal AS weather information (see README.rtf for details) Does this statement mean that FSUIPC can access ASE weather at a given airport and then report that METAR back through say Radar Contact? Is there additional news about the ASE destination weather issues? Thanks Bob Johnson DTW
