Any offset for the helo Governor?

[RAS-XAV]

Good evening everybody :)

Some friends of mine and me are converting an old Robinson R22 (which crashed a long time ago) into a realistic helicopter simulator using Flight Simulator 2004. Luckily, Microsoft Games reproduced the R22 quite well...

We've connected the switches of the real helicopter to old joysticks, but we need a bit of software to connect them to FS. I noticed that there wasn't any offset for the governor switch! And it's actually the only switch that I can't make working...

Am I wrong? (and in this case, what is the offset?) :oops:

Or is there another reason that explains it?

Pete, if you need any information on the working of the governor, I can help you. I read on an older post that you need some. :wink:

Sorry, I've no idea what it is or how it would be referred to in MSFS. Is this something to do with that mysterious "helicopter beep"? Is it a simple on/off switch, or some sort of axis/dial?

For things simulated in FS, references to specific things actually in FS would help. If it isn't simulated then you would just have to have a dummy switch.

If the "Helo Governor Beep" adjustment is what you want, then the controls

INCREASE HELO GOV BEEP and

INCREASE HELO GOV BEEP

should work, I would have thought? Searching the List of FS2004 Controls also reveals these, which may or may not be relevant:

ROTOR GOV SWITCH SET

ROTOR GOV SWITCH TOGGLE
