Why does my canopy keep opening?

[klem]

Just that. I get stuck into a fight and suddenly the canopy starts to slide open. I close it (tricky while in a fight) and several seconds later it does it again.

 

I'm using the Open and Close keys to control it and I can't find a 'canopy' lock' facility.

 

Any ideas out there?

I would start by looking at the key commands in the options menu to see if possibly the canopy command is also tied to another switch or axis.

Hi Mike - got it in one.... almost :)

 

I have the open and close keys mapped to a CH controller which is set up correctly but I forgot that I had tried experimenting with putting it on a spare rotary under the Axes commands. Of course, it is a spare because it is noisy and no good for trims etc.

 

Should be ok now.

 

Thanks.

Awesome. Glad you got it figured out.
