Hi All

 

i've just got the following, just in time for the T7

 

 Saitek Yoke + Throttle Quad

1* Throttle Quad

Rudder pedals

Saitek Trim wheel

 

 

I've got throttles, flaps, trim, elevators, rudder, ailerons mapped and work OK.

 

I want to be able to map the  two buttons on the throttle quad to be the 'fuel cut off' on and off, but can find what I map the buttons to?

 

Also i Have '6' levers, 2 mapped to engines, one to flaps, one to speed bake.

 

Any suggestions what would be good to map the other two to? 

 

Also ideas for the mapping of the other throttle quad buttons 10 of them

 

Thanks

 

Clive

There have been some issues between complex add-ons and the trim wheel in the past. I do not have the trim wheel, but does it show in the "Control Axes" menu in FSX?

 

I suggest that you map the rudder to one of your extra throttle axes, so that you can use it as a tiller. You might want to assign rudder or aileron trim to the last axis. 

Thanks,

Hi Kevin

 

Yep, it shows in the Control axes in FSX OK

 

I've mapped the throttles though FSX and everything else via FSUIPC.

 

Tiller , is a good idea, thanks for that one

try using LINDA to map buttons etc, this works very well and there is a module out for the 777 already with specifics

Hmm, not good. I map the keys in Linda via the PMDG profile, but nothing happens

 

Also get this error:

 

 LUA Error: C:\fsx\modules\linda/system/handlers-hid.lua:83: attempt to index field '?' (a nil value)

 LUA Error: cannot open linda-cfg/aircrafts/PMDG 777/config-mcp.lua: No such file or directory

I have my Fuel Controls mapped in FSUIPC like this:

 

Left Run = ctl+shft+F2

Left Cutoff = ctl+shft+F1

Right Run = ctl+shft+F4

Right Cutoff = ctl+shft+F3

 

How do you have your reverse buttons mapped. I don't have those working on my Saitek yet (but I haven't spent much time investigating either)
