CH Eclipse Yoke calibration question

Featured Replies

Can anyone tell me when I calibrate this yoke there are (4) four actions. The one I don't understand is the "Z " rotation, what is it for and how do I calibrate it? I can't find anything that activates it.

hi rvc70,If you're not using the Control Manager (with or without a map), then it should be the two paddles either side of the yoke hub. They were meant to be used for Rudder, but it's just an axis and can be assigned to any of the FS centering axis functions.If you are using the Control Manager (again, mapped or not), then they show up as the "R" axis, but the CM uses X, Y, Z, R, U, V. FS used "R" too back before they started using the XML files rather than the CFG files.Best regards,- BobThe StickWorkshttp://www.stickworks.com

rvcBob is correct ( I was going to recommend you contact Bob on CH Hangar forums but he beat me to it). You can also use the paddles as a "tiller" via FSUIPC. This means that by using the setting in FSUIPC you can steer the plane during a taxi and on the runway up to I think about 60 mph after which the normal rudder takes over. Very useful for taxiing.Don't forget to keep sensitivities full right and null zone full left in FS until you get used to the controls.RegardsPeterH
