I have Mobiflight connected to Arduino Mega, and X-plane 11. I have a 7 segment display that works OK, if I turn the altitude in X-plane, it alters my display. The problem I'm having is inputs. I can't get any encoders, switches or buttons to work. If I turn the encoder one click a light on the Arduino flashes, but nothing on the aircraft On the bottom of Mobiflight the Simconnect Status has a yellow fault symbol. Can anyone help please

Sim Connect is not related to Xplane.... This is a feature of FS2020 Only..... So Yellow Warning should be correct and no problem.

If you confirm your Display work and show "live" the value from the Sim then i would say XPUIPC work and also connection is fine.
If you also confirm LED on Board flash then Firmware is fine pretty sure.

You can finaly confirm all is OK by enable the Logging Mode ( Typ DEBUG) ..... Then you got a little Window below MF Connector that show logging..... If you press a Button, turn a Encoder or so there will be a information like "Encoder xyz On Left" or "Button xyz PRESS"
So you can 100% confirm the Inputs work and are recived in Mobiflight.

Finaly.... I think your Problem is simply a wrong config.... Isn´t it?
Can you confirm you use correct Offsets ?

Good Luck !
