It was the speed issue that you have been hitting. For example, I wanted to set two throttle levers at the same time and regardless of how I did it, you'd see one move and then the other. Small delay maybe a tenth of a second but too noticeable. > > You see, I'm investigating about the various approaches before digging > into the complex stuff, I'd like to know what made other people decide > for some strategy instead of another, much more than the real code > needed to do that. Always a good idea to construct a working concept before building everything. Better to discover unforeseen issues before spending a large amount of time on it.
