  1. I just went through this dance. Here's what I found works the easiest and most reliably... I remapped (in the sim's native mapping) the quest buttons. I couldn't find a reliable way to get the thumbstick axis to work with sliders and such or "grabbing" or "trigger grabbing" them and sliding/flipping them, so I gave up on that. Instead I mapped the B and A buttons to "Cockpit Interaction - Increase" and "Cockpit Interaction - Decrease". So I point at the control or switch (including 3way switches) and press A or B. Some switches (usually 2 state ones) still work with point and click, but the ones that don't (usually 3ways) work well with the A B method. Flaps are notably "backwards" since you "increase" them to lower them, but they're at least reliable and consistent now. I'd of course prefer to flip switches and slide sliders, but this provides a much more robust and reliable solution.
  2. I use the Asobo Caravan to practice procedures. I fly a Grand Caravan EX with a PT6 and G1000NXI IRL While the Asobo model is reasonably accurate, I'm wondering if there's any improvements out there that I'm not finding. There's plenty of "wants", but in particular, I'm most interested in... The ITT dance... In sim, the ITT just rises to the operational temp, while IRL, the ITT rapidly rises, slows it's roll and then settles back down to operating temp. Hot starts. The ability to overtemp and blow up the engine. Hung starts. Over-torque. The BlackSquare Caravan does a good job of all this, but it's (stanchly) steam gauge. I fly glass, so that doesn't help me. I also fly in VR, so I'd prefer something that still works in VR (one of the mods I tried killed the primary flight controls) It's not a deal breaker though. Is the Asobo Cessna 208B Grand Caravan EX Realism Mod the "latest greatest"? Or is there something else out there? https://flightsim.to/file/52010/asobo-cessna-208b-grand-caravan-ex-realism-mod Thanks.
