Sorry, but I am not sure I fully understand. Offset 0x3BA0 holds the TAIL HOOL POSITION simvar as a double floating point number (8 bytes) with values between 0 and 1.
What has this got to do with custom controls?

Also many MSFS aircraft, especially add-ons, do not use the standard MSFS simvars and use there own variables, usually lvars. So first, check the simvar is being used by monitoring the offset and change the tail hook position in the aircraft cockpit UI and see if the value changes. If not, try listing lvars to see if any look appropriate, ot look to see if there are any MF presets available and see what they use.

If you want any further help, please state the aircraft you are using and what you are trying yo do. Your initial post is very cryptic...

Thank you. I don’t know much about the technical part of it. I will ask my flight sim helper to give a hand in explaining it.
