    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Just Flight Piper Arrow and Turbo Arrow and Mixture axis?

Browncoat

SOH-CM-2023
I installed the most recent updates for the aircraft, but I am noticing that I can't move the mixture past 40% to cutoff unless I have the aircraft state set to cold and dark. I checked my HOTAS axis in the control settings, and I don't have this issue with the Milviz Corsair, or default Asobo aircraft. Is anyone else encountering this?
 
I don't know if this will help? However, there are two Mixture setups in MSFS. -100% to 100% and 0-100%. I have tried both and only one works for me, but I don't remember which one. I tend to use FSUIPC to set most of my controls. I find that it gives me less trouble. Ohs & Ahs works too. But, it will not let me set an ON-OFF toggle switch, so I don't use it.
 
Howdy Delta 558, I’ll take a look at that. Thanks.

Howdy Jmig. If the lock that Delta 558 talked to isn’t the culprit, I’ll give swapping the mixture axis to the mixture for engine 1 and remove it from mixture for all engines a shot.

I had a similar, but different, issue with the cowl flaps on the Corsair. It turned out that MSFS had assigned another switch on my throttle to cowl flaps engine 1, in addition to a switch that I had for all cowl flaps. I caught the issue when I loaded in to the Asobo Barron.
 
So Delta was right on the money. The Arrow does have a mixture lock that I wasn’t aware of. It’s kinda tricky to engage and disengage, but it works!

Funny thing is that I have the Arrows for XPlane 11 (with REP and I love ‘um!) and I notice that the lock doesn’t work for that sim. Oh the quirks that are found!
