There was a thread on these so long ago, I though it's better to start a new one.
I own a fully equipped Saitek-based Hardware Panel (Cessna Yoke, Pedals, TrimWheel, TPM), three Saitek Penals (Radio, Multi, Switch) and 9 Flight Instrument Panels. It has been my dream to see all these working under AeroflyFS2. My initial expectation was in SPAD.neXt which I use for the others Sims but I lost hope this will materialize during the rest of my life (65 now).
All the Controls do work fine indeed. Radio and Multi Panel, too. The Switch Panel does nothing. When I switch buttons or turn the magneto knob, the AeroflyFS2 control screen reflects this with the proper assignments. However, they do nothing in the planes, at least not in the C172 and the Baron, i.e., the magneto switch does not turn in the virtual cockpit.
The more annoying matter concerns the 9 FIPs just sitting idle. Using them, I could get rid of any cockpit on display and have full screen scenery - that's what I enjoy in the other Sims (i.e. Prepar3d, FSW, and XP) using SPAD.neXt.
Is there any way to get the FIPs to work under AeroflyFS2? This would be Heaven on Earth.
Thanks and kind regards, Michael
