Hello, I already have my humble control box working. Now I have a doubt and a subjection.

The Doubt: You can get a list of everything assigned both in inputs and outpost, I mean offset events etc ... I mention it because it took me a long time to test to get the necessary data to leave it to my liking :-)

The Suggestion: when the data is saved the LCD does not save the assignments it has and you have to put it back by hand.

This I ask because too often my MEGA card gets corrupted when I exit Mobiflight and I have to do a CLEAR and reinstall everything and it does well except that, the LCD

Greetings and thanks

Hi Astor,

that depends on your MF version. There are older version who have here an error, but the laster version (7.10) has solved this problem.
Then it is possible that you have installed MF in a windows protected system folder on c:\
Try to start MF as Admin the you are allowed to save your files in the system protected folders.
The better way would have been to install MF on an other partition like d:\ or e:\

Hi

Here Stephans Information is not Fully correct by a mistake .

The Problem of Missing Placeholder Settings is known..... And As Stephan said it is already Fixed.... BUT not in 7.10.

The Fix for this rare Problem is included in the NEXT Version of Mobiflight..... But sure. It´s still in the newest BETA Version, too.

If you like to fix this.... Then enable the "Join Beta Group" feature in the Settings..... And Close/Retart MF.
On Next Startup it will detect there exist a new Update ( MF Beta 7.10.xx) and will install it.
(Alternate is to wait some weeks until MF release the next Update Official. There it´s included, too !)

Hopefully this also solve the corrupt Board Firmware Problem..... If Not.... Sebastian still rework this part and in the also next Beta this will provide a solution !
Good Luck !
