Flak 88 Range Adjust
« on: January 28, 2012, 06:29:47 PM »
I tried out the 88 for the first time today but was unable to get the range to adjust using the C,V keys.  Tried remapping the keys, tried mapping to my stick.  No luck with either.  Any suggestions or help is appreciated.

Make sure you're in the AA mode and not for AP.  AA has fuse range setting while AP does not.

I had a doh moment and figured you were correct.  Nope I had it right.  Was set to fire AA, but still unable to adjust the range.  Scratching my head here... :headscratch:  Any other ideas?

i have the same problem.  The roller on my mouse will do the same as C V should i.e. coarse adjust but then again I don't have the fine adjustment that you should get on the mouse.

Playing with my settings just now (I can't sleep), I found an analog axis works MUCH faster for dialing in the 88 range. I'd suggest you use an axis of a joystick, if you have any to spare.

Far too many, if not most, people on this Board post just to say something opposed to posting when they have something to say.

Fixed!  Mapped the range adjust to my slider on the throttle (X52) and got it working.  Nailed my first plane with it!  Thanks for the tips fellas... :aok
