Setup PMDG777 in P3d5 with FSUIPC6 help

[GKM]

*** Moved from FAQ sub-forum to main support forum ***

Hello, So I was told to purchase "FSUIPC6"to help get my Boeing Thrustmaster control/throttle/pedal working on P3sv5 but after downloading and installing I have no idea what to do.

Can you please send me in the right direction.

Many thanks

First, you posted in the FAQ sub-forum where it explicitly states NOT for support requests. Please take care to post in the correct forum for support. I have moved your post to the main support forum, where it belongs.

Please see the provided documentation - I provide extensive documentation so that I do not have to continually answer such basic questions.
Read the documentation and try assigning as indicated in the documentation. If you have any specific questions, you can ask in the support forums - but please search the forums first, as most questions have already been asked and answered.

Well, not that patient... I am actually on holiday at the moment, a family wedding, flying back home tomorrow...

In the zip file you downloaded that contains the installer, there is also an installation and registration guide. This tells you where everything is installed.
The documentation is installed in a folder under your Windows Documents folder, in a sub-folder named FSUIPC6. Start with the User Guide. There is also a separate document for the specific offsets for the PMDG 777, but save this for later.

Axis assignments for the PMDG 777 should be straightforward, but best to assign with 'Send to FS as normal axis' as some folks have issues when assigning with Send direct to FSUIPC calibration, although the latter is better if you don't have issues. For button/switch assignments, PMDG aircraft use their own custom controls. See the following FAQ entry on how to use these:
