Speed brake

Featured Replies

My speed brake keeps extending on its own accord.... it happens with all my aircraft.... i have fsuipc.... would could be causing it

I think in the p3d control settings one key / axis must be mapped to the speedbrakes (called "spoilers"), very likely if you have Saitek hardware.

Asus Z87 // Intel i7-4770k // 16GB RAM DDR3 // GTX770 4GB // Thrustmaster T.16000 // 2x Saitek Throttle Quadrant // Saitek Rudder Pedals

Prepar3d V3.4 // Active Sky 2016 // ORBX FTX Global/Vector/OpenLC // FSDT GSX // EZCA

Planning with PFPX and TOPCAT, flying the Aerosoft A320 on IVAO and VATSIM

Not sure which Saitek hardware you're referring to.  I have the Saitek TPM box, their multipanel, and their switch panel, and none of those claim ownership of my spoilers.  I just use the controls settings inside P3D to assign a yoke button to spoilers - works fine.

Maybe the spoiler axis needs to be reversed via fsuipc axis calibration

Um...another yes vote for FSUIPC...or maybe not.  I've never had any need for it.
