[REPORTED]Can't set Flaps for FW 190

[xaoslaad]

I can't set the flaps on my throttle for the FW 190. Those three squares are greyed out. I tried removing all the controller files and the problem persisted. Is this a known issue?

I have the same problem.

It certainly appeared in 1.5.4. OB. At first I thought it was result of copying old input config files from 1.5.3, but it's still there with clean, default assignments for TH Warthog set.

 

"Falps up/down" work (albeit in a bit strange way), the others are greyed out.

Could you please make screen of options menu. I don't have any blocks in flaps control. Can set them easily.

Using fresh update for 1.5.4 release version

I do not fly the FW-190 a lot, but this is what I am seeing

It's a bug with Hotas throttle for sure. Could you make a report in Mantis please?

reported, thanks #0035274

Ok. It's not a bug. It's a feature ))

 

We have new keys for flaps special for HOTAS throttle now because HOTAS have only two keys in three positions switch. You can see buttons mapped for Toggle flaps up and down positions. When middle (MVR) position of the flaps switch can't be mapped but should work correct.

I made it work!

 

I have the Warthog throttle, and didn't work right away, like reported in here.

 

My fix was to clear the "Toggle Flaps Up" and "Toggle Flaps Dn" key assignments, and then assign them again to Flaps UP and Flaps DN on my Warthog throttle.

 

Now it works perfectly, as described by Racoon:

Flaps UP = Flaps up

Flaps MVR = Take off flaps

Flaps DN = Landing flaps

 

Thanks for helping us use our three-way switches. :)

I had the same issue, though mine would not clear that way. I had set Gear up/down to the Warthog's flap switch, once I cleared that, the conflict went away and then I could set things as I wish with the new control assignments (Toggle Flaps up/dn).

My problem was that my WT flaps switch was already assigned to flaps up and flaps down.

So I could not see the conflict, only that the controls did not respond.

 

 

Edit: Now I would love to be able to use for instance my APU Start switch as a 2-way switch for MW50, so that APU Start was "On", and OFF was "Off". :)
