Dear All,

I'm building an autopilot box (replica of Garmin GMC710).

While setting it up with Mobiflight Connector I couldn't find some offsets which I need ?

Such as : FD, XFR, FLC, BANK...

What should I do ?

Here is the picture of the box :

Hi
Welcome !!

I think you missunderstand some basics here !

1. The Preset "pulldown" menu is NOT a full list of possible things you can do with Mobiflight ! this is just a little list of usefull elements lots of people need. Technical there exist hundrets/thousends of additional Offsets. Advanced users not use this presets..... If we need a element we search the needed Offset Adress and the settings like size, typ, mode and formulas from "lists"..... Standard Aircrafts e.g. from the FSUIPC Standard List..... AddOn Aircrafts normaly support own lists for there individual offsets OR they have no offsets and you must write some code to handle this. ( Specialy in Xplane nearly 99% of AddOns have no Offsets and you must build all this stuff by hand).
So technical we insert the needed data ( The settings that are preset done for you in that dropdown) ourself by hand !


2. Not every data is available.... Here the golden rule is..... "Only if a system is simulated in the Sim you can readout data" .... Hardly said.... If your AddOn Aircraft have no transponder then you can NEVER readout the transponder code ..... Cause it simply not exist.

Solution: Some Buttons i can not identify.... Like the YD or XFR ..... You must know what they should do..... then we can think if this system is basicly exist.... And finaly we must check if that systems are exported to XPUIPC or if you need to implement them yourself!.

Mobiflight technical give you the posibility to build "everything" but ONLY if the sim and XPUIPC/FSUIPC give Mobiflight the needed Data !
Good Luck !
