Flaps assignment for Maule m7 235

Featured Replies

Good afternoon. Just got the Maule M7 235 for msfs 2024 and am trying to find a setting where flaps will go to full extend. If I start with engines running flaps are set at 48, but I with engines not running cannot find a setting which gets them more than 24 even after engine start. I think I have tried every setting in AAo's but don't understand the various numbers that can be adjusted. Can you give me a quick suggestion here?

As always, thanks for your help..

How are you trying to control the flaps? Lever or buttons? When it is a lever, remember that the MSFS sims prefer Events (second box from the top on the axis dialog) over the Axis Variables (from the first box). The most common flight control events are duplicated in the very first group of the treelist so they are easier to find.

Thank you for the reply. Am using the flaps lever on the Bravo quadrant.  With further experimentation, have found settings that take flaps to full 48 extended.  Probably not the best way to do it, but three settings - Axis Flaps Set, Flaps Incr and Flaps Incr.  Flaps Up brings flaps back to full retract. My AAO's does not recognize the lever press as an axis so not getting the events option, unless I am not understanding.

If possible, I would prefer for the flaps lever to move with each press instead of to full extended on one press.

Thanks again for your help.

The Flaps thing on the Bravo is not an axis (=potentiometer or Hall sensor), the spring loaded lever actuates two momentary buttons. By "lever" I meant the 6 actual axis handles on the device.

Anyway, this sounds like the plane has custom logic for the flaps. Instead of the SDK events, look for MSFS IEs (Input Events) and their bindings, the BVars. When you are sitting in the cockpit, the IEs are on a separate tab of the AAO event selection dialog. When in doubt, use the MSFS developer mode to check the behavior code of the flaps lever in the aircraft.
