Setting up Flight-Control surfaces "plain Vanilla" CFS3 inst

Greetings,
After I have my "Plain Vanilla" CFS3 install, is it OK to program my flight controller's (Joystick, Rudder Pedals', Throttle, ect.) which will modify the .xca file, and then start the ETO install? Or will that corrupt things. Just wondering, since most of my flight control surfaces will be the same, and I do not wish to program them after each install of CFS3(Like PTO,MAW,DSC). I hope I made the ? clear. If not, please advise.


Thanks for the input.

Gidday Ohiotrooper,
I had been hoping someone with direct experience would answer this - sorry for the resounding silence, I believe there are some important/exciting addons at critical stages of gestation

My suggestion - backup the stock .xca file, then make your adjustments for "vanilla" cfs3. Then when you want to set up ETO (which will copy over stock files into the new ETO folder), you can always put the stock .xca file back before installation.

HTH,
