Masking axis input

Featured Replies

I am having a strange issue with my stick. When giving pitch input it gives me a little input on the z-axis as well. As the z-axis is mapped to the tiller on the Fenix, this does not hurt most of the time. However during takeoff, pitch down is required until 100 knots and this is where the problem is. My idea was to mask the z-axis input in a way that as soon as TO-thrust is set, the input of the z-axis will be ignored. Is this something that can be realized using AxisAndOhs? Any help/ideas are highly appreciated.

There are several ways to do this. 

The easiest would probably be to use two different control layers, where one has the tiller in it, and the other doesn't. Then you can just switch between the two layers as required (there are events for this purpose, so you can do it with switches or buttons too. Or maybe a voice command).

The other would be scripting. Instead of assigning the tiller axis directly, you create a script that only sends the input value to the tiller event when the thrust lever is below the desired position. Should be easy enough. 

The third is using the combo LVar. Create a second assignment to the thrust lever that switches an LVar between 0 and 1 exactly at the CLB(?) point. Then use that LVar as the Combo LVar for the tiller axis.

Thanks a lot for the quick response. So far I only have some experience with scripting so I probably go this way. Need to check how to forward the z axis values to the Fenix tiller. The rest should be ok.
