Propeller Feather with Precision Flight Controls

[N987PL]

Can someone help me with the correct settings in FSUIPC4 for feathering the propellers using the PFC Flight Contol Quadrant?  I cannot get the joystick calibration function within the FSUIPC utility to work properly that will enable feather.  Here are my current settings:

 

PropPitch1=-16384,-8127,512,16383

PropPitch2=-16384,-8127,512,16383

Hi,

 

Which simulator?

Which plane?

How are the axis assigned?

 

Please provide more details. We can't help without information.

Thanks for the response Reinhard.  The sim is FSX, airplane is Carenado King Air C90B.  I managed to delete all of the axis information, start over, with first assigning the axis for the prop 1 and prop 2, and then calibrating in direct mode all with the FSUIPC 4.9 utility.  I got if resolved late last night with the settings below from my FSUIPC.ini.  I'm not sure what the /8 signifies however....

 

PropPitch1=-16384,-129,512,16383/8
PropPitch2=-16384,512,903,16383/8

Hi,

 

It's the Delta value described in the user guide on page 42.

No, the Delta value is in the Assignment parameter, its part of assigning not calibration. The "/n" part of the calibration entries refer to options selected on the calibrations pages, like filter, reverse, no reverse zone. I don't recall which one 8 is but a reference to the calibration tab for it will show.

Ah....thanks Pete.  I think it's for the noise filter on the prop calibration.  I was having some jitter on the control and the filter seemed to eliminate it. 
Thanks MUCH!!
