Mixture and Supercharger handles

Post by Adel Haiba »

Hello A2A,

Best wishes to all,All handles move with keyboard shortcut regardless the engine selected. For example during start-up I chose engine 3 with the engine selector, once the engine fires up I advanced the mixture using the keyboard Ctrl+Shift+F4 and I've noticed that all mixture controls move forward even with engine 3 selected, same for the supercharger handles.

Please advice

Thanks

Hi.
The keys you are useing , are FSX/P3D default keys , and will not work the individual mixtures on the connie .
I use my mouse to operate individual mixture levers during startup/shutdown , i use FSUIPC and A2A configurator , for my control setup , and the mixture levers need lua controls of which i know nothing about to bind them to keys.

Thanks for your reply, even with the connie key configuration it doesn't work, I hope that A2A make it simple without any other configuration.

If you go into the A2A Input Configurator, you can assign the supercharger toggle to a key binding or the lever to a control axis. As the mixture levers are 3 position (off, cruise lean, and auto rich) the normal key bindings don't really work. However, you can control individual mixtures using either the mouse or let the Virtual FE manage them for you.

Hi Adel.
Yesterday after a chat with gypsy baron , i tried again to get the mixture levers to work , after a play around in FSUIPC i got the mixture levers working correctly , not attempted the superchargers or carb temp levers yet , i will be making another training video later today , on my modified control setup in FSUIPC .
keep an eye on this link for updates on my videos. :- http://a2asimulations.com/forum/viewtop ... 33&t=58003
