Hi Pete, As a former commercial pilot I am not a computer specialist but I understand now (or I believe so) that basically the offsets are the addresses where the FS variables can be found and the FS controls are keys events launching the programs which are manipulating these variables. Your advice to visit the Aeroworks B200 author forum was fruitful. I could see some questions about this topics without any solution so far (expect K2mouse).The B200 Autopilot seems to be “special “.A compatible version would be expected in a version 3 but nobody knows when. I also double checked the AP panel Alt hold control on the others FS standard aircrafts and finally found out that it´s working well on all of them. Please accept my apology for misleading you. As you wrote I could find the controls that I was looking for in the FSUIPC for advanced users, chapter Additional FS controls (1024 through 1027).Since I just looked in the list of 2004 controls I missed them. Many thanks again for your strong support Jacques Best regards PS :I will download and register 3.85

Hi Pete, I am currently building a generic cockpit using the famous Aeroworks B200 as a basis .The Hard is completed by a Saitek Pro -flight Yoke and pedals as well as a GF –LTG module (gears, flaps, trim). Softwares are XP SP2, Flight simulator 2004, FSUIPC v 3.75 (This might not be the latest one, but I do not think that this is relevant for my issues), The cockpit controls (switches, buttons, rotating knobs) are driven by the IO card interface and SIOC. So everything is very classical and documented many times (too much sometimes). FSUIPC is obviously the software corner stone frequently addressed in my SIOC script. However I still have two main topics for which I am unable to use FSUIPC either directly (via the Saitek Pro yoke buttons) or within the SIOC script. 1 A.P. ALTITUDE I wish to control the A.P. from the Saitek Pro –Yoke and ProQuadrant buttons. Although all others Automatic Pilot functions ( A.P. heading hold ,A.P. Nav1 hold, A.P. Approach , A.P. VS inc, A.P. VS dec ) are working fine ,the AP Alt Hold ( 65726) or the AP panel Alt Hold (65799) do not trigger the Altitude select or the ALT automatic pilot function as expected .This is also true for other aircrafts using other A.P. models (e.g:Cessna 172) . I am currently using Key2 mouse for this as an alternative solution but I do not like it since the B200 already requires it so much, Can you help? 2 HEADING BUG AND VOR1 OBI (FAST). The functions Heading Bug Dec (65880) and Heading Bug Inc (65879) as well as the functions VOR1 OBI Dec ((65662), VOR1 OBI Inc (65663) are implemented within my SIOC script via the offset $3110 and working fine. I wish to add (for more convenience) the FSUIPC following functions Heading Bug Dec fast, Heading Bug Inc. Fast, VOR1 OBI Dec fast ,VOR1 OBI Incr fast. These are displayed and also working fine but their offset numbers are not documented (at least in the available printed documentation). Can you help also?
