configurating flaps 30 in P3D PMDG 777 with my throttles


Recommended Posts

don't exactly know what I did but now I have all my detents working including 30. I did reset the flaps in joystick config and started setting them again. This time it worked but going flaps up sometimes I have to play with handle to make it work, can't figure that one out. My axis assignment is just flaps, not flaps set that wouldn't work. You can compare the difference that is why I sent an updated file. thanks. Any feedback is always welcomed.

For PMDG aircraft, you should really use the PMDG custom controls for flaps, i.e. these:

Quote

// Pedestal - Control Stand - Flaps
#define EVT_ALTN_FLAPS_ARM                                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 510)
#define EVT_ALTN_FLAPS_ARM_GUARD                        (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 511)
#define EVT_ALTN_FLAPS_POS                                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 512)
...
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER                    (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 507)            
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_0                    (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5071)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_1                    (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5072)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_5                    (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5073)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_15                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5074)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_20                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5075)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_25                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5076)
#define EVT_CONTROL_STAND_FLAPS_LEVER_30                (THIRD_PARTY_EVENT_ID_MIN + 5077)

Assign your axis to (Unused) on the left hand side of the axis assignments panel, and assign to the specific detents in the right-hand side around the position of each detent (you will need to assign most with both Up and Down, but the _0 detent on down only, and the _30 detent on Up only.  See the User guide (page 38) on assigning controls to axis ranges if not familiar with this.
 To use PMDG custom controls, see 

Also please use substrings for you aircraft profile names - i.e. change:

This will then catch all variants of the PMDG 777.
