PMDG Flaps FSUIPC Detents - anomaly 2&5 ??

[mtjoeng]

FSX SP2

win64

pmdg NGX

fsuipc 4.743

anyone cares to duplicate?

assigned FSuipc flaps, pmdg NGX 737-800 profile, to a Saitek Throttle Quadrant lever

then, first time ever, figured I wanted to try FSuipc "Dt" detents

tested on Default B738, 9 flap positions, 8 detents & works,

copy these to a new profile "NGX"

detents work for:

UP.1.(not2/5).10.15.25.30.Dwn(40)

goes crazy at flaps position 2 & 5 ..

(I monitor the VC Flap Lever)

(perhaps have something to do with pmdg NGX slats programming (those move at 2&5?)

anyway

anyone cares to confirm there's a problem here, perhaps its my setup

my flap detents:

detents work for:

UP.1.(not2/5).10.15.25.30.Dwn(40)

goes crazy at flaps position 2 & 5 ..

I'm surprised they work at all the other settings. PMDG's flap positions are different from the default (and everyone else too, I think). You'd need to calibrate specifically for the aircraft.
