Hello all,
The following patch updates the ThrustMaster FCS joystick configuration.
I have Nasal-ized the joystick bindings, drawing ideas from the

I'm working on a Beech 99 here and I see evidence that the co-pilot
brakes operate independently of the pilot brakes. The two yokes I
believe are linked together so when one moves, the other moves, as do
the rudder pedals, but it appears that the two sets of brakes operate
independently.

Would it work to have one node in the property tree that would contain

The 3D cockpit could listen for changes to this node and when one
happens, update the CDU display in the 3D cockpit...

okay, then you should change the default so the helicopter starts with
the collective up so the helicopter doesn't just take off once you
start the rotor.
Yes, a solution for keyboarders would be desirable. But it may only
influence the keyboard

you can clearly hear the woman say that if you lift the collective you
increase the pitch of the blades so you get more lift and you'll go
up. so it would seem that collective up means helicopter goes up.
maybe in austria they do it differently.
i am not sure what the collective has to do with the throttle. if i
understand this correctly, the collective changes the pitch of the
rotor blades. i thought helicopters don't have a throttle the way
fixed wing aircraft do: i.e. the engine is always at a constant rpm.

It will be good if we can have some generic Graphic Interface for FlightGear.
Not only can it be used on the CDU, it can also be used on other flight
