Hello All

Just reinstalled BoB with latest patch and 2.11 skins and I am very happy thanks to you all who spent the time making this sim excellent.
Just one slight glitch and apologies in advance if this has been covered before - the BW fighterstick control has a rocker switch on the throttle for the rudder input. Both work; however the throttle works in the reverse sense i.e. open fully you have to pull backwards!!

It's driving me a bit mental at present since I have re-assigned the axis several times whilst moving the throttle and rudder (both appear on the Z axis) in both senses to see if it will re-configure however results are the same - throttle works "backwards" and rudder works OK.

Pity I was greatly enjoying the upgrades and being told on takeoff "yes quick enough but very untidy"!!! Har
All I need now is to mix it up with a Me109 having the throttle remapped to the rudder bar and the rudder working as a throttle!!!!!!!!!!NOT!!

Seriously - very grateful for any advice on this (the stick works as advertised in other apps and configured ok through the windows control panel).

Many thanks Morty

Any controller axis can have its orientation reversed. See
p33 in the manual. (It's hard to explain without illustrations).
You have to click the control in question in the custom
controller config screen "in-game axis" column, it should
turn red and the controller options properties should show
up on the right side of the page.

No problem, the BOBII User Manual is the best in the flight Sim world and you should scan it to understand all of BOBII's options, features, and settings so you can get the best game play for your style.

Have fun.........
