PMDG 737 NGX doesn't work properly with GoFlight MCPPRO and TQ6-ADV or TrackIR

PMDG 737 NGX doesn't work properly with GoFlight MCPPRO and TQ6-ADV or TrackIR

 

I recently purchased the PMDG 737 NGX for FSX and I am having a difficult time getting it to work with some of my controllers. I have the GoFlight MCPPRO Advanced Autopilot and the GoFlight TQ-6-ADV Throttle System Module. I also have the TrackIR v5 head tracking system. I downloaded the GoFlight PMDG Interface software and installed it. I launch the software only after FSX is running with the flight started.

 

Here are some of the problems I am having with each of the following devices:

 

GoFlight MCPPRO Advanced Autopilot - Autopilot knobs do perform a function in the virtual cockpit, but the display on the MCPPRO only displays zeros. The MCPPRO works fine in the default 737. The GF Config2 software is set to the Compatible Add-On mode and is version 2.21.

 

GoFlight TQ-6-ADV Throttle System Module - Throttles work, but the flaps, spoiler handles and thrust reversers have no effect. They all work fine in the default 737.

 

TrackIR v5 - Tracks head movement, but the reset eyepoint does not work when pressing F12. This device also works fine in other aircraft.

TrackIR 5 works perfectly fine for me, what issue are you having with that?

The TQ6 works okay for me.

 

I havent used any GoFlight driver. Do not assign axes using FSUIPC. Just assign them using the standard FSX assignments. Make sure the sensitivities are at maximum. A small null zone may be needed for the flaps axis. The reversers use switches on the thrust levers. Assign these using FSUIPC to F2 in FSX.

I wrote the GoFlight drivers so can help you if you still have a problem?
