Hello all, after flying happily using Prepar3d for the last 6 months (and many years before with FSX), I have encountered a silly problem that simply has me baffled. I started my sim this morning after I installed REX Latitude (I doubt this was the culprit) and for some reason, the flap and landing gear switches no longer function - either on the keyboard or the Saitek X52. I can see the flap switch/gauge budge when I hit the switch but it stays in retracted position, as does the landing gear. All other buttons and switches work (keyboard and joystick).

 

I tried going back to default settings, using keyboard only etc etc, rebooting, system restore, lighting a dozen candles at the local church (and am now considering becoming a vegetarian) all to no avail. Anyone encounter this nonsense before? Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

Forgot to mention - this applies to all aircraft.
