Hi Peter,
I have read all the doc I can find, but am unsure about the ability of FSUPIC to interpret potentiometer input. As far as I can see - it handles the mapping of buttons to keys and 'programming' with key combinations.
I have seen a number of messages in the forums about CH and other commercially produced throttle quadrants - but nothing about generic potentiometer output.
A friend has built a cockpit for FS2004, including 2x throttles, 2x prop rpm, 2x mixture as well as a left - right and 'up - down' yoke and rudder pedals. All these work potentiometers - but he had no idea while building it how to get FS2004 to read and interpret these variable output devices. Can FSUIPC help here or are we barking up the wrong tree?
Looking forward to your response.
I hope that this is not too much of an idiot question.
Thanks and Regards,
Michael.

Frank and Pete,
Thanks very much for the swift and comprehensive response. Frank - I will get my friend to try out your suggestion and see how it goes from there.
I have read about EPIC and other (for me) expensive options and am willing to try some of the simpler - even if more time consuming and possibly initially more frustrating - options in the first instance.
Well - here is where we start into the world of cockpit building .... 'til we chat again,
Regards,
Michael.
