[FSUIPC and Majestic Dash 8-Q300]

Hello Pete,

First of all, happy new year - I hope that you enjoyed Christmas and New Year eve with your family!

I would like to know, how I can give FSUIPC correct assignments for my Saitek Pro Flight Yokes to give my Majestic Dash8-Q300 to give the correct thrust ect.?

The issue is, that my throttle begins giving thrust reverses when I am only reaching half away down on the axis.

My standard assignment with the thrust levers is actually pushing the axis all away down as it is possible (Button 22 etc.)

I have seen a tutorial, which is how to disable the "automatic" assignment of the FSUIPC on the bird, which is actually to remove the .ini-file from the dash8-folder - but still, I cant have the same assignment as for the other aircrafts I fly with.

Hi Pete,

Sorry for the inconvenience, I have found the "problem"................

And that is, that I have to disable the standard controller settings on FSX, then the FSUIPC works at it has to.

Sorry for the time used for this, but - if I knew the problem before, we could have saved a lot of investigation :D

But I hope that you get the vacation you need, and enjoy it.

Best regards,

Mads

Hello Pete,

Well I think that I know what the problem is, I run Win7 with DX11 installed... So actually it might be graphics issue...

This is how I get the crash:

Start FSX

Choose Free flight

When running FSX, Click Add-on - FSUIPC

Get in to "Axis Assignment" - then FSX crashes, Win says a fatal failure occured, then it wants to restart FSX.

But it cant even restart it, then I have to start task management, and force stop FSX.

Hope that it gave a clue.

Best regards,

Mads

Hello Pete,

Regarding the Cheyenne, you have mentioned it previously - and thats the aircraft you mentioned which was written in the FSUIPC log.

I tried to update the FSUIPC once more time, and tried to start it on windowed FSX, and still, when I get into FSUIPC and try to customize the levers, FSX crashes again.

I dont think it can be the graphiccard issue, I have used FSUIPC on the same computer without problems.

Best regards,

Mads

Hello Pete,

Sorry for waiting to reply your message.

Well, I have completely copied that both logs has written...

FSX crashes when I enter the FSUIPC, and try to customize the buttons and levers on my Saitek Pro Flight Yoke system. Then FSX crashes, and wants to restart FSX application. Even when I try to restart FSX - I cant.

Everytime I use FSX without FSUIPC installed, FSX resumes working properly.

I have tried to uninstall the Digital Aviation PA31T2 Cheyenne, FSX crashes as well when I try to customize the buttons and levers.

However, I doesnt seem to be the internet connection which is the issue.

Reason why I is, that I tried FSUIPC with internet connection before where the plug-in appeared to work properly...

So I dont think that we have a solution for this outstanding problem.

[Does FSUIPC require Internet Connection all the time?]

I understand, that FSUIPC doesnt require internet connection! But STILL FSX crashes when I have FSUIPC installed, and when I have FSUIPC uninstalled FSX runs normally!

It seems that we have an unrecognizable problem!

I run FSX with Acceleration in a Win7 32bit system...

[Does FSUIPC require Internet Connection all the time?]

Hello Pete,

Thanks for your response.

I have tried the FSUIPC connected with the internet, and it works - but as soon as I disconnect the internet - FSX crashes while I try to use FSUIPC.

What further information do you want so I can use FSUIPC full-out?

I have FSUIPC 4.6 registred

FSX Acceleration

Win7

Also, 1 of the problems is, that if I have FSUIPC installed - FSX crashes as well trying to exit the FSX application.

When I uninstall the FSUIPC from the modules, then I don't have the problem with FSX crashing.

[Does FSUIPC require Internet Connection all the time?]

Hello fellow FS enthusiast,

I used to have internet connection, but I am traveling a lot for the time being, that means that I have had to cut my bills and unfortunately the internet connection was 1 of the most expensive I had to cut off.

I use FSUIPC, registered of course, but FSX crashes down every time I try to fx. Calibrate Joystick, Assign Buttons etc.

I just wonder if there is no alternatives to "bypass" the internet connection so I can use FSUIPC which I spent some money to?????

It is annoying that FSX always crashes when I try to get the FSUIPC work!!!

Hope to get some answers or helps!

Best regards
