Helicopter axis assignment using fsuipc

Featured Replies

Hi everyone 

Firstly happy festive season. 

I am trying to assign the collective and cyclic for a helicopter in fsuipc.

I have the paid fsuipc 7.

I do not see any helicopter axis options in the fsuipc .

Can you please advise do I select the general aeroplane axises. 

Looking forward to your suggestions.

Qas

Just curious; why not using the dedicated helicopter control assignments in MSFS?

I did...but I have to change the profile each time I swap between planes. Fsuipc selects the profiles for different planes automatically.

It is a bit tricky. I asked on the FSUIPC forum and John gave me the advice to use the FSUIPC logging feature to figure out which variables are changed when a particular control in the VC is moved. That helped me to figure it out, although it may be different for different helicopters.

FYI, here are my current settings. Not perfect, but a start. I think the R44 is WIP, but the Bell 406 assignments seem to work well.
