Reversing axis

[Ron Attwood]

Helicopters! I've tried and failed, to get 'Axis Collective Set' and 'Axis Helicopter Throttle Set' to be reversed. I've had to resort to MSFS controls to do this job. Until now I've managed to get FSUIPC to handle everything. It's a pain having to go to MSFS, turn off those controls when I swap to a fixed wing.

If it can be done in FSUIPC would you be so kind as to point me in the right direction?

I did search but found nothing. Not to say there isn't though.😉

I forgot to add, I'm using v 7.3.16

See the section Additional parameters to scale input axis values on page 41 of the Advanced User guide.  Basically  you need to need to scale the axis by multiplying by -1, so you add ,*-1 to the end of the axis assignment line in your FSUIPC7.ini file.

I could maybe also allow Axis Helicopter Throttle Set to be calibrated using FSUIPC's calibration page.

Deep joy! That worked a treat. I looked at the Advanced User Guide, somewhere I didn't think I was clever enough to look at. I was right! You are on a different level to ordinary folks. 😃

Thanks for being here.
