[Reverser position]

Hi Pete,

Is there any FSUIPC variable that looks at the actual position of the thrust reversers?  I need a way to trigger an event once the reversers are 60% open, but cannot find any eisting variables that cover this.

Im using Prosim737, and they have made gates for reverser sync locks, but these operate even with the engines shut down, which is not what i need.

 

Cheers

Cheers Pete.

 

I had tried that earlier, but was getting strange heading readings.

I have since realized that i needed to do the same change of calculation for the Magnetic variation.

 

ii have now fixed that, and also both the VOR and ADF relative bearings, and it all works beautifully.

 

Thanks mate

[Trying to get heading as a 4 digit number]

Hi,

 

I have converted a real RMI to use stepper motors and it is run through SIOC.

 

It all works correctly, I use the *360/(65536*65536) equation on offset $0580 i get a 3 digit heading from -180 to +180 as I should.

 

This means my stepper motors move every degree, but during slow turns this looks quite jerky.

 

What I want is for the heading to be a 4 digit number, such as 263 & 1/2 degrees would read 2635.

 

 

How should the equation look if i want it to read -1800 to +1800?

 

 

This will give me 10x the resolution and make the movement smoother

 

The Stepper motor card uses a value of 0 to 36000 for the position of the motor.  My motors have 2048 steps for a full circle.

 

Cheers.

Version 4.921i installs fine, but you cannot access the FSUIPC menu from P3d v2 for some reason

[Offset for Flap motion / transit]

Thanks Pete, I'll give the Lua route a go!

[Offset for Flap motion / transit]

Hi.

I am trying to find if there is an offset that indicates when the flaps are in motion.

I will be using it to trigger an audio event for the flap motor in the back of my sim.

It obviously needs to only be "on" when the flaps are between commanded positions.

I looked through the offset list but couldn't find anything in there like this

Cheers,

Mick
