I am more than happy, mobiflight is moving forward to Xplane but I got some major issues here.
Right now I am simply trying to connect my landing gear to xplane and mobiflight. I was following the new tutorial and got my following dataref:

laminar/B738/controls/gear_handle_down and the values 1-0.
How do I use the values now?

Hi

Badly i can not help direct, cause i never use Xplane myself.....
But this looks like a SET Command. So Not use something like $-0
Use simply 1 or 0 ... 1 for the On Position..... 0 for the OFF.
If its a Toggle by a button then use : if($=1,0,1)

Also note.... This looks like the Stock B737..... I expect it not work for ZiboMod

At the end.... Also here the most advanced users (Samhaho) is on our Discord only....
I high recommend to join to our DISCORD Server.... There you can talk to the Pro Guys directly !

For everyone who had trouble with the zibo and gear lever, here is the solution:

Landing gear lever UP:
laminar/B738/controls/gear_handle_down
Value: 1

Landing gear lever Down:
laminar/B738/controls/gear_handle_down
Value 0

Landing gear lever OFF:
laminar/B738/controls/gear_handle_down
Value 0,5

So even for zibo its the laminar/b738/controlls. You will not find it in the B738_commands.txt, so you have to read it out.

Took my some days to figure out
