Is there an "increase/decrease fast" (aka minusfast , plusfast) option hidden somewhere in the Linda interface for VOR/OBS 1&2, ADF-card, Gyro, or the Altimeter that I'm overlooking? I found the heading bug fast and slow. And I think "CRS plusfast" / "CRS minusfast" serve to adjust the Gyro. I'm not sure a fast and slow option is necessary in my case for the Gyro, ADF-card or the altimeter. But it would be nice to have a fast and slow option for VOR 1, VOR2, and the heading bug (which I found). I didn't see them in the "Set FSX Control" either. Thanks, Scott

No, I don't think those functions are there. The functions you have found look to be defined in the file 'fallback.my.lua' but there isn't a complete set. As an alternative you can use the Almost Aviation library, which has ADF Card, VOR1, VOR2, ALT and GYRO functions. However, you can't call the fast/slow functions separately, they go fast or slow depending on whether you are holding down the shift key (centre-push on my rotaries). If that doesn't work for you you could always make your own version (lib-scott.lua) and edit the functions. You will see that to make the 'fast' functions I just call the regular one ten times!

Thanks Mark. I've been experimenting briefly with your library and also with FSUIPC. I managed to make FSUIPC work for the shift key (center push rotaries), fast and slow but the process was tedious. I will have to look more closely at your library file implementation.

Anyway, your library works very well and accomplishes exactly what I wanted. Thanks.

So to be clear, you MUST have a paid and registered FSUIPC for LINDA to work at all, correct? I attempted to use LINDA and your library today, and it isn't working, but I also haven't registered FSUIPC yet, so I am assuming this is the issue. I also noticed that when I downloaded LINDA, it doesn't install into the FSX modules folder as one of your videos mentioned, it is a self contained thing. I went ahead and copied it all into the modules folder, so hopefully that helps. Again, I assume it isn't working because I have not registered FSUIPC yet, just want to confirm.

Hi Do you need a arduino as interface between LINDA and fsx

Hi Do you need a arduino as interface between LINDA and fsx No, LINDA lets you program any regular joystick device.
