OK. but it is working perfectly now, did 3 flights yesterday, zero problems.

It works now... I redid everything from scratch. I installed older version into a fresh folder, updated it to latest version with a new download of the update file. I then replaced the exe in the updated version with the one you sent me, and now everything works. 😃

Unfortunately , this didn't work at all. I installed the file, I booted up MSFS, and all my settings in Assistance went to easy, and everything was jumping all over on the screen, with loud clicking noises. I had to restart PC, go back to my old version of FSUIPC, and reset all the settings. Scared me for awhile till I got everything going again.

Thanks, I appreciate your help in this.

This is a log file of the one that works. I sent two commands with 0 and two with X. Question, how do a assign a button release to key release.? FSUIPC7.log FSUIPC7.ini

I use FSUIPC to just generate a keypress on my keyboard, the number 0 and the letter X. The ATC program is set to pick up those two keypresses. I was using 7.0.4 which still works perfectly. The files I am sending you are the updated FSUIPC where it does not work with the updated version. Hoping that is sufficient. FSUIPC7.log FSUIPC7.ini

I have worked on this update all morning. I only have two things I use FSUIPC paid version for, When I press one joystick button, I want it to send a 0 ( zero) key to my PF3 ATC program. When I press the next joystick button I want it to send an X keypress. My former version of FSUIPC does this perfectly. The new version will not. I have a backup of the older version on a Macrium drive, and if I reinstall the older version everything works perfectly. I run the update of the latest version, and the 0 and X keypresses again are not transmitted to the ATC program, I have done this several times. I have even tried replacing the new ini file with the one that works, and still it doesn't work. I cannot figure out why this doesn't work InstallFSUIPC7.log

I had the same problem. I think I may have unchecked Mobiflight. Will try later and see if it works this time.

Guess I am just not very bright.

Read that user guide several times, and didn't seem to find the answers to my question. Will look at it again tonight when I get home.

On the axis calibration screen , to the left of the set buttons, there are two boxes labeled In and Out. What is the actual purposes of the numbers in these boxes and what do they affect? The other question is, when calibrating an axis, let's say the joystick in one position reads +16,000 and the opposite reading is -16,000 . Now I move it to center, and sometimes it will not read zero when hitting the center set button. Also, below that center set button, there is another box, and if you hit the set button again, that number in the lower box changes. I am not quite sure if both center boxes should both read zero, or if I have a problem if they don't. Bob

Pete, I followed your advice and disabled controls in P3D, reset up everything in FSUIPC, and now all is well, the copter and my aircraft are working fine with no problems. Thanks.....

Ok, something you mentioned, I do have controllers still enabled in P3D, since one of the A2A controller config assignments will only work with it enabled. That may be the problem. I will disable that and give it another try. I will update FSUIPC, although I thought I just did that a couple of weeks ago.

I purchased a Milviz 407 copter yesterday, installed it, and ran the configurator that sets up a control for trimming the copter when flying, using a joystick button to trigger this action. Anyway, after I did this, I went back to my A2A constellation aircraft, and a few of my FSUIPC settings had been changed. I am running the elevator axis and some switch positions, and these got scrambled up. The first thing I did was to use a back up FSUIPC .ini that I keep updated on a backup drive, but this didn't fix the corrupted settings, so I had to redo the settings one by one in FSuipc. Today I ran the Milviz config program again, and the same thing happened. It actually coupled one of my joystick elevator settings to the throttle, and again disabled some switches I use for prop adjustment in the Connie. I decided to unistall the Milviz 407 and place it in the digital trash bin after this happened the third time. Now , the reason for my post is, why doesn't the backup ini file keep all the correct settings, so that I would be able to just delete the new file and use the backup ini, and everything would be back to normal? I was under the impression that all the settings for FSUIPC are stored in the ini. I will include the ini that I just set with everything working correctly. Not looking for a fix, just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing something wrong. Thanks, Bob bobsk8 FSUIPC4.ini FSUIPC4.log

Not everyone has this problem. I have no idea why, I am not a software programmer, just a pilot. Another very experienced simmer suggested that I add this line to the FSUIPC.ini. and when I did, and it fixed the problem instantly. Two other people emailed me that they had the same issue, added the line, and their problem went away. All I know is it is fixed now.
