Missing Controls XML

Hi all, I have been trying to reconfigure/reset my problematic yoke setting for a while now and realized that I lost my Controls XML in the process. I tried system restore and reinstallation of FSX to no avail. The FSX Controls folder is empty.Could a kind soul please send me a copy of their Control XML to [email protected] so that I can reconfigure my yoke setup again. I am losing hair over this and need a swift response.Thanks, Graham

I have the deluxe version of FSX and have no "Controls folder" and no "control xml" on my whole harddrive. This file/folder does not exist within FSX. I suggest reinstalling the software that came with your yoke.Jim

OR I must be hullucinating.Thanks for your reply anyway.Anyone else care to assist or provide me a copy of their XML..please?Graham

I just need the settings for the "gear" switch. Down for down and up for up instead of the default

1. Scroll down to almost the bottom untill you find the heading and under it the label for CH FLIGHT SIM YOKE USB2. Replace the entry lines Index 6 and Index 7 with this:6GEAR_UP7GEAR_DOWN3. Save your changes.4. Load FS and you should now have to toggle up for gear up and toggle down for gear down.Chuck
