To all,I am attempting to set up my Saitek Yoke/Throttle Quad in FSX with the Piper Cub via FSUIPC. I've been able to wrap my head around the compound key programming with no problems.I've scoured the controls listing and the keyboard commands for quite a few days. I haven't yet found a way to turn on, off, or toggle the Fuel Control Switch in the Piper Cub (red ball on left side of VC) other than using the mouse. Anyone know how to do this via key or control (K or C in fsuipc.ini)? Also - I'd love to set up the mixture axis detent with this feature. Any help on how to properly set the following would be appreciated (is using flags necessary, or use P/U button command?) : detent on = fuel control switch off / detent off = fuel control switch onThanks in advance!

I suspect that the fuel control is done with a L:var within ACCusim and not through an FSX control.There is a method by which those local variables can be controlled using the registered version of FSUIPCand a macro file. I just saw a post on the A2A forums that explained the process. I think itwas in a thread in the P-47 Razorback section. OK...just went over there. here is a link to the post "How to assign Joystick Buttons to Accusim Commands"http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtopic....524&start=0 Paul

This is for the default FSX Cub? or A2A's offering?

If it is for the default Cub then seriously - don't bother! Get the A2A Cub and see how a Cub should really be done!

The A2A Cub. I've never flown the default FSX Cub.But the process of creating a MCRO file for FSUIPC to add L:Var's to the assignable Buttons and Switches menu can be used on any aircraft. The procedure is a bit long and probably not somethingthe casual user would or should attempt but for those that liketo have everything controlled by a HOTAS setup, this feature issomething that should be explored in depth.

Here's an update.For the A2A Cub, create a file named "A2A_J3.MCRO" with the following lines:[MACROS]1=L:CarbHeat1Switch=TOGGLE2=L:Eng1FuelCutOffSwitch=TOGGLEPlace that file in your "modules" folder.Now, in the FSUIPC "Buttons and Switches" memu you can assign those functions to any of your free buttons or switchesby checking "Aircraft specific", activate the desired button orswitch and then select the control from the drop down list.This is for a registered version of FSUIPC.

I don't have the A2A Cub - I'm using the default for now --BUT - I Found what I was looking forTOGGLE_FUEL_VALVE_ALL - # 66493Mapped it to the button and there it moved!Gypsy Baron - thanks for your insight. I googled "FSUIPC FUEL_SELECTOR_1" and found another AVSIM post about setting buttons for mixture valves. Much Obliged!

Various controls in the A2A Cub can be controlled using default FSX shortcuts even though they are custom coded internally, so you don't have to use registered FSUIPC to assign shortcuts to them. But if you want to keep your mapping consistent, here's some info:Fuel Valve is mapped to events MIXTURE_RICH / MIXTURE_LEAN. These are standard FSX shortcuts for Mixture Cut off / Mixture full (Ctrl-Shift-1, Ctrl-Shift-4 by default).Event for carb switch is ANTI_ICE_TOGGLE or ANTI_ICE_TOGGLE_ENG1. That's FSX default for carb heat (key shortcut 'H')Primer can be controller by TOGGLE_PRIMER or TOGGLE_PRIMER1 or ENGINE_PRIMER event. You can also play with L: variables if you want to go this way: CarbHeat1Switch, PrimerOn and Eng1FuelCutOffSwitch. Be adviced that by sending wrong events in FSUPIC you can break or bypass Accusim logic.
