Hi team
Does anyone have a way of opening the passenger door (RH) on the A2A Cessna 172 trainer
Yes I can open it using the mouse pointer and the menu Shift 3 and selecting it from the menu, but I want to open it using a switch via Mobieflight
The left hand door works fine with Event ID 66389 and a Param 1 TOGGLE_AIRCRAFT_EXIT, but I cant find anything for the Right hand door
Have tried to set up a Key command but that only makes a sound as if the door is opening but nothing happens
Have traced the action using Linda and have a readout for a Macro of ExitOpen2, set up a Macro but the same result, sound but not opening
Any help suggestions would be great
Once I get this working I should be able to open all the doors and windows using a remote control like a garage door opener:confused: :confused: :confused:

Hello Ian!
Here are a few suggestions that might help you troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check the A2A Cessna 172 manual or support forums to see if there is a specific event ID or parameter for opening the right-hand door that you can use with Mobieflight.

2. Double-check that you have correctly identified the right event ID and parameter for opening the left-hand door, and try to replicate the same steps for the right-hand door.

3. If the macro ExitOpen2 is confirmed to be the right macro for opening the right-hand door, try to add a delay after sending the macro command to allow the simulator enough time to respond.

4. Verify that the key command you set up is properly mapped to the right-hand door command and is not conflicting with any other command.
5. Contact the locksmith in Aldgate for help if the above suggestions don't work.
