FSUIPC settings doesnt apply to all models of the Q400

[ramriez 0]

Hello,

having a problem with FSUIPC lastest version and P3D v4. If i map the joystick and axis for a aircraft (like FSL A320), its applies to all A320 models. But with the MJC Q400 i have to remap everytime i use a different aircraft model. I take a Flybe model i have to remap, i take OA model -> remap, and so on.
I don't understand why the modification doesnt impact all Q400 models like it does for others aircrafts ?
Thanks

Go to the modules folder of P3Dv4. You can create profiles inside the FSUIPC5.ini file. Then, refer your joystick calibration and axes settings to these profiles. This is my setting for the Majestic Dash 8:

 

[Profile.Majestic Dash 8 Q400]
1=MJC8Q400_BTI
2=MJC8Q400_BER
3=MJC8Q400_JZA
4=MJC8Q400_QXE
5=MJC8Q400_ANA
6=MJC8Q400_ANA_GREEN
7=MJC8Q400_AUA
8=MJC8Q400_CTN

10=MJC8Q400_BEE
11=MJC8Q400_AUB

17=MJC8Q400_SRK
18=MJC8Q400_CJC

Provided the [General] section parameter:

ShortAircraftNameOk=Substring

is set (and that is its default) then all you need to make it accept any aircraft with a similar name (i.e. without assigning each one as you load it) is to have

[Profile.Majestic Dash 8 Q400]
1=MJC8Q400

Or, assuming there are no other (different) Q400's, just

[Profile.Majestic Dash 8 Q400]
1=Q400
