Speed brakes
I have switched from a button on my throttle to a slider on the same to control the speed brakes.
It works great on aircraft like the F-86 and T-38 but not on either F-4.
All instruments indicate normal and the instructor mode does not indicate any failure.
I can extend the brakes with the button and then move the slider and the brakes retract but that is it.
I then deleted my keyboard and button assignments, leaving just the slider but it does not do anything.
Is there a way around this?
I am using FSX acceleration

Re: Speed brakes
When you say a slider do you mean an axis? If so, axis commands are not supported for the speedbrake. There are Inc/Dec options for the speedbrake in the MVAMS however.

Re: Speed brakes
Yes, sorry, I meant setting the slider as the speed brake axis. I was trying to free up a button since I am out of free ones on the joystick, throttle.
Thanks for the quick response, William

Re: Speed brakes
The AMS does support modifier keys which you can press on your keyboard at the same time that you press a button so you can make one button do multiple things.
