jackpilot Posted July 14, 2009 Report Share Posted July 14, 2009 Hi Pete. Just a confirmation: I am building my throttle quad. Can I make my aluminum flaps gate with notches and calibrate my axis later so that each flaps setting corresponds to a notch (which seems to be the way to go) Or is it better to calibrate first and make the physical notches after.

Whatever you prefer. You'd use the detente facilities in FSUIPC in any case, so the notches can be where you like. I would have thought you'd make them where they should be. But you do have to ensure there's enough change in the input values from the axis, between each position. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackpilot Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Thanks Pete. I am building a "generic" throttle 777 style, I find the 737 TQ antiquated, so I have a good leeway. I'll play safe and make a temporary gate out of MDF, just in case. Have a great day Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
