747-400v3, P3D4v, Landing Gears

Featured Replies

Hello !

As i am trying to configure my Saitek Switch Panel (with LUA scripts), i meet some issues with landing gears.

  - When I send these values :

ipc.control(70400, 0) or ipc.writeUB(0x65D8, 0) --> (GEAR UP) --> GEARS won't move

ipc.control(70400, 2) or ipc.writeUB(0x65D8, 2) -->  (GEAR DOWN) --> GEARS won't move

Why ? Values are from officials PdF ...

- How can i get the different gears status ? if one of won't retract, its light should be red, and not green ... I didn't found a value for this ..

Thank you for your help.

Since this isn't a PMDG specific question I think you would get better advice over in the FSUIPC forums.

Chris,

I'm not sure that it is not a PDMG specific question.

The value for this event : gear_lever is 69632+768 =70400. this control should be 0 for gear up, 1 for off, 2 for gear down. This is written in the SDK. But it doesn't work. A friend of mine has the same issue...

FSUIPC OFFSETs are read-only, so it won't work, OK. But PDMG SDK events should work ...
