Like i told you i've tried every possible way acording to my "little" knowledge of the software,like i told you BEFORE,i've tried all the options available,at least the ones i thought were available thru fsuipc, prop 1dercreas prop1 lo etc this before i ^posted on the forum like i never meant to be a bother of anykind...i've tried and lessoned before posting. I'm just discovering the software i assume controls are what can be assigned as levers?? The bottom end of the levers which i am trying to affect to the prop feather are non progressive they have only two state on and off,which is for me very fine and on someway model its real worl counterparts. To make it clear: I have two levers who do the job of prop increase and decrease for each engine available. This works fine and i don't want to touch it. On my levers that i've assigned through the axis setup i have a zone that works like and on and off position. This zone corresponds to the feather position as modeled to this aircraft...the zone can be reached only by hitting ctrl+F2 on my rig. This command is only achievable by hitting ctrl+f2,BUT it puts the both props in the same state without distinction. I've tried all the props settings in fsuipc available commands and none of them works. Your suggestion of doing it thru the programation of the levers don't work or to stay modest i don't know how to make it work. Pete franckly i dont mean to bother you so let's call it off and move on to another subject...i don't mind,i've been in the simming world for more than 16 years now,i've paid my due and my softwares,i just remenber that time when people had time to spend with each other ...new world ..new rules.. Thx anyway to have spent some of your precious time on my case. Pease forgive me as well as English is not my native language so it makes it a bit harder to be understood. Cheers

I did Pete come on don't get upset,i've tried what you suggested in any possible way before posting and whining on the forum. I'm not requesting a new feature or to model anything for my own use,i've tried and i read the manual and could not find a satisfactory answer so i've asked nicely if anyone would have a clue about this,it is much like it depends on the design of the airplane and not an fsuipc issue,i was just curious about the possibility of doing such a thing,i was in no case complaining and yes i've read your post and done what you suggested before if this is the only possibility i'll stick with ctrl+f2 and i 'll live with it not really a problem all the rest is fine,i was just being curious ..that's all. Regards. DD

Hi Pete, Thx for your input,i guess you undestood what i was trying to do. The thing is with those aicrafts i think there were modeled quite nicely. The levers from fsuipc work very nicely ..all course from high pitch to lo pitch on the all course of the quadrant via of course fsuipc. The sliders work as an on and off condition of course when programed from fsuipc. So it should be easy to apply and on and off position to the condition..keystroke condition prop 2 feather. In Fs it's a condition for every prop! you can get a condition for mixture levers or throttle and increase decrease progressive function but for some airplanes not an off and on condition on the levers. My main goal is to get and off and on condition on diferent props as i have not problem modeling the feather condition but for one prop at a time. Ctrl+F2 works nicely but it will get all the props to a feather status as in real life you should be able to feather a prop in case of engine failure indepedently of the other........ Thanks for your input again and i'm still waiting for a work around for that very specific feature maybe there's nothing to do about it but at least i've tried. Cheers

Hi, I just got the saitek throttle quadrant,i ve finally been able to calibrate it thru fsuipc and i know see the power of the software,in fact i've just got two units and i'm trying to set it to use with carenado c90 and da piper cheyenne. I'm trying to map the slider i've afected to prop pitch (slider is when lever is all the way down it acts as a switch and can be programmed as so) nice feature! On the c90b i have affected the slider to set the prop in feather conditions it works nicely i've afected it to the slider thru a combination of keys (ctrl+F2). My problem is that i would to be able to feather one prop at once through the two sliders available and it seems there are no option to distinguished both as it would be more realistic and also more safe to be able to feather the both props diferently,i don't know if in fs there is a combination of keys to select one prop and aplly the Ctrl+f2 command and if so is there the equivalent in Fsuipc. On the cheyenne i've tried to program the condition levers that have three positions but it seems they don't have any button affected thru FS so i think that part is almost impossible as it works nicely with th c90 as the levers are mapped as mixtures levers. Could anyone enlighten on that or if ther is any solution to overcome that. Thx in advance.
