UPDATE
unfortunately I have run about 20 hours of flight with 7.10.0 and I have practically always encountered problems after 20 or 50 minutes after the start of the flight.
however I managed to find some peculiarities.
currently, when the system is blocked, the LEDs and displays remain on or off as they were before the block.
it is as if the MEGA card has frozen.
instead, when I had power or hub problems, the LEDs and displays returned to the off state.
this is new.
I wonder, in my ignorance, if there could be a connection between this new problem of mine and the possibility of using many inputs at the same time.
after all, the MULTI-INPUT has to come from some form of software change (improvement).
I also confirm that, with version 7.8.2 or 7.8.3 everything works regularly with 20 or more hours of flight.

as always, many thanks

Hi,
I am also having similar issue with Mobiflight 7.10 . I use a UNO and it has worked fine with simple switches for MSFS 2020. I could even operate flaps with a servo and autopilot with a button till yesterday.

So today, I wanted to check it, Mobiflight updated the firmware, like mentioned above, and says firmware updated successfully. When you press ok and goto settings the device is not there and greyed out. I cannot add devices anymore. When you exit and reload, it again updates firmware but nothing is loaded.

Then to test if my UNo board was ok I made some circuits, put a lcd and rotary encoder uplodaed my code into Arduino and everything is working fine. The only thing new today was MSFS 2020 update 1.9.5. That couldn’t have cause a problem though. So there is a bug somewhere ?

@ nbans.

No. A FS2020 patch can not have any effect on Mobiflight itself.
Like we say multiple times. MF is runing completly standaloane. It technical not see or know if a simulator is active, what simuator is active or in what version this simulator is.
You can run MF also without any simulator to controll e.g. a ego shooter game via keys.

I not see what you exactly did yesterday. But for me it sounds your problem is the UNO finaly. Please test if you got a MEGA also if this work for you.
UNO is no longer ifficial supported. You know we allow to use it but we no longer "care" about it since 1-2 Years.

This means if Sebastian patch e.g. the Board recognation in 7.10 then he only test and designe this for the MEGA.
So it can happen a usefull change that work perfectly for the Mega finaly kills the posibility for the UNO to work. We can not think about that in case we official say UNO is not recommend to use !
Good Luck !

The same problem for me too
I have 2 MEGAs and 1 UNO. All the boards have the same problem.

I started with 7.10
then upgraded it to the beta versions . Always the same problem.
