Indeed. I have the /controls/spoilers property bound to the same joystick axis I use for mixture (or maybe propeller advance, I forget). The slats property I just toggle as a boolean with a button mapping. Now that I think about it, really good stuff to add to the aircraft description would be a control-speed entry for slats, as they take a few seconds to deploy; and an input mapping from the outer part of /controls/aileron to spoiler deflection, since the spoilers assist in roll control at high control inputs. > If using the native-ctrls network interface, would that need to pass > the control axis parameters from the network to YASim. working in the > FMC autoland sequence and need to deploy spoilers, thrust reversers, > brakes and such upon touchdown signal with WOW from main bogeys. Yes. Presumably you'd query the appropriate outputs (/gear/gears[n]/wow, in this case) out of the property system, and set the inputs (/controls/*) appropriately. Andy -- Andrew J.
