I don't understand. The flaps are not "ON/OFF". They are either UP or DOWN.

I enjoy the axis on my Virpil throttle.  Though I want to add a custom lever in the proper position on the other side.  And an emergency setting sweep axis so hopefully HB can supply the bind sooner than later.

If you want to use a switch for the flaps, you have to make a 2 position "ON/OFF" command.

I'm sorry but I really just don't understand the problem. You wrote above that you "really want to use a 2-position switch for the flaps". All I'm saying is that you can do that now with the key bindings available: FLAPS UP and FLAPS DOWN. 

I apologize if I'm missing something here.

I think he is talking about an "on else off" type setup.

Would the point of that be to select intermediate flap positions? Something in between full up and full down?

No it would work like a keypress, for example flaps are lowered when the F key is pressed down (the on position) and when released flaps are raised (the off position). Though with switches they generally stay in whatever position you leave it unlike keys.

Hi Heatblur Simulations, would you make a 2-position command for the flaps in the Tomcat as I wrote about earlier? I really want to use a 2-position switch for the flaps like you have done with the arresting hook!  

Hi, what about making a 2-position command for the flaps in the Tomcat? I think its a important command.
