This might help as well.

Here is a great Tutorial for the Majestic Dash 8 Q400 if anyone is interested.

Sound is out of sync for a few minutes, but it syncs up soon enough.

Looks like a couple of great tutorials showing up on the channel now as well. Take a look at this one.

Name: The Life of a Virtual Airline Pilot Series Category: FS Instructional Videos Date Added: 07 June 2015 - 11:50 PM Submitter: BombSquad Short Description: A series of videos which highlight the life of a virtual airline pilot. I saw these videos on YouTube and thought some of you might like to check them out. They seem to be getting better as the series progresses. You can go straight to the channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC29JpfuVwsPSqVTP40uJvfg Enjoy! View Video

Steve, Thanks for the link. I will dig in first opportunity. GH, Until we meet again. Cheers

Indeed. My apologies. Neither did I intend to come off as aggressive; I was going for smart a#$ for the sake of smart a#$ I meant no offense and took none. I am still interested in you TQ-6 settings on FSUIPC if you are willing to share. As I said, I have a couple of odd quirks such as throttle one when moved alone moves throttle two in the sim but throttle two does not move throttle one. now if I move throttle one and two simultaneously and then pull throttle two back they will separate. Thats one; let me know if you'd like to hear more ;-) Sorry for the smart a#$ery

For the record, I was not suggesting that the youtube character Froogle is an expert in any sense at all. I was simply noting that he had made such a comment, and it seemed to work better for him. I happen to have the box checked as well, and it is working fine. I also set my throttles to "send to FSUIPC for calibration', and they seem to be working rather well. Though admittedly there are a couple of odd quirks. But now I digress... Nice of you to digress, but you need bother. I happen to like his youtube channel if for no other reason, it is entertaining and I learn quite a bit from it. If you do not care to watch, don't, but please do not put words into my post that weren't there. I never called him an expert; you did. Please, share your perfect TQ-6 setup for the NGX so that I, and everyone else, might benefit from your expertise.

Could it be the display selector knob is in the wrong position? sorry for the lack of technical garble, but the knob which allows you to choose what is on the display, when turned to the left I believe, will render the FO PFD blank. That's the only thing I can think of at the moment. I am assuming this is after you have aligned the IRS's?

King, Froogle is a youtube character who focuses on sims, especially flight sims. I was unclear in what I was saying regarding his suggestion. It is not that you assign throttle axis in FSX for PMDG a/c, only that you must leave the "enable controllers" box checked, which means you will have to go into each one and make sure it is NOT assigned. Sorry for the confusion. I have assigned my axis through FSUIPC and made them profile specific for the current PMDG 777 I am flying. It was a bit confusing, even with related videos for help, and it took a little while, but dear me, I got er working. The true test will be after I land this bird later today and move back over to an NGX. I will have to assign new controls for a new profile, and it should be just as confusing this time, since I don't really remember everything I did last time ;-) gb, This was indeed one of the issues I was having. I didn't even think about it, but I had the spoilers attached to a lever on my yoke and it was pushed fwd causing the TQ-6 not to work properly with the spoilers (stupid eh?). Anyway, seems to be working now, and I thank you for your help. After I land this one and switch to the NGX, I will create a new set of profile parameters for that plane. If that works well, I can mark this little problem solved. King, Thanks for all the help. I am still working to learn FSUIPC, sort of on the fly, but given that I have several hours until my next flight, I will probably be doing some reading. I will let everyone know how the setup of the next a/c for the next flight goes, and if all goes well, I will mark as solved. Thanks again to everyone who helped, and hopefully there will be no more problems. God bless

Try this look from our dear frooglesim.

King, Thanks for the heads up. I tried the pollypot tool and it worked fantastic for my NGX, but when I tried to use my PMDG 777, no dice. So, as I suspected early on, I have purchased a registered version of FSUIPC (something I have been intending to do for some time anyway). I am in the middle of a VA flight, so registering will have to wait, but I will update all as I get it set up. Just curious, first, why is there a problem with calibrating through FSUIPC for PMDG? Second, how should I calibrate, should I use the Goflight suggested method through windows? Last, the video posted above by Zoran (very helpful Zoran, by the way, thank you), Froogle says you need to keep your "assignments" in FSX for PMDG a/c; does this mean I should have axis assignments in FSX and FSUIPC for my PMDG a/c? Cheers

Rob, The pollypots tool seems to be working...still messing with some kinks. I will keep you posted.

Thank you Rob, I just got home and will try that other tool first and see where we go from there.
