The panel switch goes on for me, but not off. If I use the keyboard button, they turn on and off, but the switch doesnt move and the landing lights don't retract.

The landing lights are a three position switch OFF-EXT/RET-ON

Use the left and right mouse buttons only to control the switch.

Do not use the keyboard command(s) for lights.

oic ok thanks

Hi Folks,

Just a request - landing lights in the RW are supposed to be turned on when cleared for takeoff - it's one of the functions I really like mapped to a control... When cleared for takeoff - it's not really a time I'd like to drop my HOTAS - reach for my mouse - move my head to look down at the side panel with TrackIR - then try to mouse click a moving target on the VC because of the motion of my TrackIR...

I realize the landing light switch can't use the default control due to it's three positions...

Since this aircraft doesn't have a G1000 - could we maybe map a custom control top operate this switch to one of the PF keys to enable joystick control of the landing light switch ?

Thanks...

Regards,
Scott

If you have a registered version of FSUIPC, you can try the following: Using Lua Script to Control Landing Lights

Hi Thomas,

I do have FSUIPC - I’ll certainly give that a shot - thanks so much !
