Hi everybody

i am trying to help a friend that has bought from someone else a b737 cockpit, after some sessions we have managed to figure out  the provider of the hardware (CPflight) and thanks to this we have figured out how to configure accordingly and put it to work. But the throttle quadrant is the last part that is not working, we do not know who the maker is, we know that it was connected to a computer  running the rest of the hardware lets call it computer 1, meanwhile the prepar 3d v5 was running in a different computer alone, and at some point it was working fine, we dont know what caused it stop working (a change in version, a deletion of the firmware... or what) 

my question (did not try it yet) is: if FSUIPC 6 is installed in the prepar 3d computer (computer2) can read what is connected in computer1 (hardware)? of course we are using widefs (the rest of hardware from cpflight seems to be responding in computer 2 (P3D)

if anyone comes with any other idea or suggestion is always welcome

 

thanks

WideClient does not transmit axes data, only buttons. This is because the overhead/lag on axes connected to a client PC makes them basically unusable.
You should connect your throttle quadrant to the FS PC (the server).
