Weird Canopy Key Binding Bug

[finkelt]

Hi Everyone,

So when I try to bind switches on my WW Orion to my Canopy switch and then a different switch or button to the Canopy Handle, somehow the canopy handle (i.e. the "Spider") stops working even when I try to activating with the mouse.  But if I remove all key bindings for the canopy (switch and handle) then the mouse works to shut the canopy switch and the canopy handle.

 

Any idea how to bind the canopy handle (a/k/a the yellow spider) to a button or swirtch and have it work?  Seems like a bug....

I cannot reproduce your problem. I bound Canopy Handle Up and Down to a button each, and Canopy Switch Up and Down to a button each, and everything works fine. Except Canopy Handle UP and Down are reversed. And I can still operate the commands with the mouse.

It kind of sounds like the binding on your throttle is holding the canopy switch in the down position after the canopy is fully closed.

If the canopy switch is being held in the down position, it will prevent the canopy handle from being closed.

If you have a 3 position switch available, that might let you return the switch to the neutral position and allow you to close the canopy handle.
