ZldvX Posted August 4, 2019 Report Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) Hi, So, my rudder is broken and now im a liltle short on money, so i have a joystick (CH Flightstick PRO) that only has 2 axis, X and Z. I Assign my Z axis as my Elevator, and X axis as my Aleiron. Some addon , lets say FSLab a3xx and BBS require steering/rudder to move on ground, i tried with auto rudder setting within the simulation but no luck with those 2 add on, is there any way to make the X axis as Rudder in ground and as Aleiron in Sky ?. What i've tried to do : Asign both Aleiron and Rudder/Steering to the X axis in FSUIPC, but when on final the aircraft becomes unstable. What i wanted to do : Change the X axis from aleiron to rudder/steering vice versa with a toogle of a button. Thanks. Edited August 4, 2019 by ZldvX

Only by writing a Lua plug-in program to process the axis value as a paramater (ipcPARAM) and assigning the axis to that Lua using LuaValue <name of lua program>.. The plug-in would need to be loaded beforehand by an [Auto.<profile name>] section in the INI. It would use event.param to call a function and that would check whether you are on the ground or in the air and send the appropriate Control using that axis input value which is supplied as a parameter. 10 hours ago, ZldvX said: What i've tried to do : Asign both Aleiron and Rudder/Steering to the X axis in FSUIPC, but when on final the aircraft becomes unstable I'm not surprised! 10 hours ago, ZldvX said: What i wanted to do : Change the X axis from aleiron to rudder/steering vice versa with a toogle of a button. Same answer as above except that instead of detecting whether you are on the ground you'd have another function, called by event.button, which changes a flag (just a value) which you can interrogate in the main function. Documentation for all these Lua facilities is contained in your FSUIPC Documents subfolder, along with lots of examples. Pete

As I said, the FSUIPC facilities for Lua plug-ins are documented in PDFs in you FSUIPC Documents subfolder. For help understanding how to write them, look at some of the exmples provided in the ZIP file. To learn more about Lua and possibly see a tutorial you'd need to go to the Lua web site itself, Lua.org. Pete

Thomas Richter Posted August 5, 2019 Report Posted August 5, 2019 Hi, Note a change in the file, use the attached one. It allows to have a different Joystick than the Ail axis one, see changed code below! go to Axis Assignment tab where you assigned your Aileron axis. Here, in my case, joyNumber = A (Joy#) and joyAxis = X (Axis#). Go to Buttons + Switches tab and press the joystick button you want to use. Here, in my case, btnNumber = 0 (Btn#). As I changed the code you can now assign a different joystick than the Ail axis one by changing the parameter for btnJoy = joyNumber to what you want to use. It's the same format as for joyNumber and taken from below as the btnNumber, here in my case, A (Joy#). ------------------------------------------------------- -- Lua plug-in for Aileron / Rudder switch -- ------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------- -- if 'AutoAssignLetters=Yes' is used then 'joyNumber' is a letter between asterix -- else it is the number without asterix -- 'joyAxis' is the letter between asterix shown in FSUIPC -- 'btnNumber' is Button number shown in FSUIPC joyNumber = "A" joyAxis = "X" btnJoy = joyNumber -- can be replaced with the number/letter if a differend joystick is used i.e. btnJoy = "B" btnNumber = 0 Thomas AilRudSW.lua

'Maybe' one load cancels the other, so you load the RudTilSW.lua via the ipcReady.lua OR with [Auto] section. Try after correcting this.
