Trim wheel position FSUIPC offset not working?

Hi Axel,
Try using offset 73AE.

I just did that an see there, it worked. Would be great if the documentation could be updated. Took my quite some time looking for the error

Well I just checked, the documentation contained inside the last full installer package is up to date...... it is the ONLY one which is kept updated "regularly".

No idea but I will be planning to interface my throttle trim wheel soon. I would be interested to see how you progress.

Are you using fs2phidgets? What type of motor are you using?


Regards.

Hello ,

im using the fds trim wheels with the jh software with my own programmed driver. The driver is communicating with the phidget controller and read back the wheel axis over an fsuipc offset.
Although as workaround - setting the trim to 0 after touchdown will be done by the driver.....

so if somebody with fds trim wheels want to give it a try I will send you my software ....

Okay, I only cheched the documentation on your website. Didn't know that it was out-to-date. Sorry
Thanks everyone for the help.


If had to "redesign" or build a new throttle quadrant. I'd propably use the same stepper motor as installed in my current throttle ( http://www.phidgets.com/products.php...duct_id=3330_0 ) , controlled by a beefy driver ( https://www.pololu.com/product/2970 ) and position read out by a high-resolution encoder ( https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11102 ) in combination with a end switch or hall-effect-sensor to find the starting position. Everything would be controlled by an Arduino.

Best regards

but I think mobiflight is not using phidget servo-controller- or?

If i'm wrong send me a PN and I will provide you the phidget driver for jh.

I do NOT have any website.
The website you refer to is probably Omniatlas/Ben unofficial webiste (flybysoar). Though it was very kindly set up by Omniatlas, this is NOT where I put my files.

Hi JL - the website links to the document on your server -- http://www.jeehell.org/Offsets.pdf

I can remove this if you wish. Regards.

This is not what I meant. Only the installer package is always up to date (when possible). I have many, many things to do, work, family etc, and keeping the documentation up to date without forgetting a few things is a nightmare.
That's all
