Reco Posted April 19, 2020 Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hi all I have build a MD500e Simulator I'm using Leo Bodnar board and Vishay 357 potentiometers and full version of fsuipc I am having an issue with control assignments apart from X being aileron and y being elevator. What should the pedals and throttle be assigned to I am trying to get my head around things like when I assgn an axis say X aileron do I need to move the cyclic the full range, or can I just move it in one direction a bit for the axi to be pick up For some reason I hooked up my cotrols and assigned them but for some reason when I moved the y axis the x axis would move as well looking forward to any help Cheers Rhys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Richter Posted April 19, 2020 Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hi, that is normal as FSUIPC picks the first axis it sees moving. As it is described in the User Manual, page34 -->. You will then find on page 35 that it might be needed to press the "Rescan" button and move the axis to assign maybe multiple times before the right one is picked. Quote If the displayed axis is not the one you want to set, try clicking on the “Rescan” button (top left), then moving the axis you want to set. If the wrong one comes up again it will be because that one is apparently changing more than the one you want—FSUIPC selects the one with the greatest changes. To get over that you can choose, temporarily, to ignore the axis that is interfering with your efforts. To do this, click on the “Ignore axis” button, over there on the right. This doesn’t ignore it forever, only during the scanning. You can ignore as many as you like, and clear the whole list of ignored axes by clicking on the “Clr ignores” button at any time.

Reco Posted April 19, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hi Thomas Thanks for the reply. I think my biggest problem is I haven't setup my Potentiometers properly in the windows calibration window. Sat down tonight with the Bodnar board and plugged in a potentiometer and played with the setting which is making thing easier to understand Quick question, wired the pot to the x axis and went through to calibration for the X axis all seemed fine, but when I unplugged the board and moved the pot to the y axis and went to the calibration window it didn’t bring up the calibration square Cheers Rhys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
