Hi guys
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your excellent software. Thanks to him, I was able to partially realize my dream, as well as get a new hobby. The fact that I registered on the forum only now, after I made my first device, and a very complicated one - FCU from A320 - talks that this is excellent software that has well-documented functions. This is actually my first time asking a question on the forum.

Nevertheless, a question arose. For some time now I have become a fan of non-motorized glider flights, took part in competitions and had certain success. Now I want to make a universal device for glider flights using software. However, I cannot find suitable parameters in the MF output, such as total energy, vario netto, mac cready, etc. I asked a question to a friend of mine who is developing his own gliders and mdifying existing ones. Below is a screenshot from its software in which you can find the necessary parameters, but they are not available in MF. Please give advice what can be done to found them in the MF and to make them available for the device in the same way as other parameters

PS. Additional questions. Is it possible to reset Arduino board from Mobilflight. Now I should close MF, reconnect instrument by cable (thank to USB hub with rocker switch) and than restar MF. Simple reset button which restart Arduino reinitialize MF seems to be very useful.
And also it would be great to make minimize-to-tray feature to be switchable. It would be alos useful too.

So assuming you use MSFS, i would say you could enter the development mode, go to Tools - Behaviours and there are tools that can help you find the parameters you need. See below link for some more information on it, to get you started:
