Also, you have the wrong property name in your pitch control, it should be "/controls/engines/engine[0]/propeller-pitch" not "/controls/engines/engine[0]/pitch"

The second high/low statements are probably overwriting the first, therefore you can't control control engine[0] only engine[1]. Since the single engine planes ignore engine[1] settings you can't control them at all. Ron ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
