A2A Cessna 172 heading bug problem
Am using FSX, MCP2, Linda 2.5.7 and A2A Cessna 172 module 1.0.2 Using the heading knob on the MCP2 causes the heading bug on the aircraft to jump about and the MCP reading for the heading does not sync with the aircraft heading. I have tried reassigning the heading knob values in Linda from the A2A library to the FSX control values - heading bug inc and dec. This gives a smooth operation of the heading bug butt he values still do not sync. Can anybody with the A2A 172 help please? Richard Halton

VOR course intercept Ifly 737
I have had a very stable system and been getting good results flying the Ifly 737 with the MCP Combo 2 for some time. I normally take off with autopilot heading selected and switch to lnav at 1000' approx. and everyting works OK. Today I have tried to set up the aircraft to take off and track a VOR course. I dial in the VOR freq. and then set the course with the MCP course knob but the course reading just runs away with itself and cannot be stopped. If I set the course with the mouse on the course knob on the screen everything is OK.Anybody any ideas? Richard Halton

Saitek Throttle quad. axis problem
I have two throttle quadrants attached to my yoke. When tested with fsuipc, throttle 1 shows full movement with axis X Y and Z but quadrant 2 only has full movement for axis Z. X and Y are acting as an on/off switch. I am trying to calibrate the two quadrants for the King Air B200 with two throttle controls, two prop condition controls and two mixture controls. Can anybody help? Thanks, Richard Halton

Audio problems
My audio playback is broken up. This is noticeable in the audio test, PA's and when FO is carrying out checklists resulting in missing some items. Have downloaded latest update - still same problem. Versions for Ifly 737 and airbus worked straight away without any problems. Anybody any ideas? Thanks.

New Aircraft Module
Hi, I have entered the following :- function Show_WPT_off () ipc.writeLVar("ND_WPT", 0) end function Show_WPT_on () ipc.writeLVar("ND_WPT", 1) end function Show_WPT_toggle () if _t("ND_WPT", 1) then Show_WPT_on () else Show_WPT_off () end Syntax reported OK - file saved - button allocated on combi and saved. The button is operated OK in FSX from the list in the tracer but not from the combi itself. There are no error messages in the Linda console Where do I go from here? Thanks, Richard Halton

New Aircraft Module
I am trying to create a module for an Airbus to run from my Combi 2. I have created a basic module by copying the RealAir Duke module and many controls work OK. I am a bit lost with all the info available as to how to assign other functions. As an example I want to be able to operate the cockpit button which displays WPT on the EFIS map display. I have used the tracer and found a LVar which when clicked from the list with toggle set to 0 and 1, operates the button. In the editor I have added a section to the lua as follows:- function Show_WPT_on () LVar = "ND_WPT = 0" end function Show_WPT_off () LVar = " ND_WPT = 1" end Syntax reported OK Have saved file, assigned the function to the combi but there is no reaction from the aircraft. The process is probably not as simple as this but I thought that if I could tackle one control, I might have a chance of working out some of the others. Thanks, Richard Halton
