Hi Donn, I think c is the sum of the values for the pressed buttons in hexadecimal. (a=10, b=11, c=12, ...), this means, you have pressed the buttons with the values 4+8. If I fly the bo105 with the sidewinder force feedback joystick, one of the buttons acts like the [Ctrl] key on the keyboard. If it is pressed most other buttons have a new function. I don't know if this is a function of the bo105 or of the used joystick .xml file or a function of flightgear itself.
