Keyboard shortcut for han_water_rudder.png

Greetings,

Is there a shortcut key for water rudders (on floatplanes) ?

Maybe it's named something other than "water rudders"?

Or otherwise, maybe the shortcut can be implemented through the python interface?

Also, I've added a water rudder handle to the C180J floatplane, but it doesn't seem to have any effect.  Is there a setting in Planemaker I need to set?

thx

Mike

I'm on X-Plane v.9.55.

Fire up Plane Maker and go to standard -> landing gear -> gear data. There you'll find a section about water rudder. For one to work, you have to set at least area (how big it is) and deflection (how many degrees it can be moved from centerline). Also it may be a good idea to set the location variables, to place the rudder where it should be, with regards to the aircraft's shape.

I wasn't able to find any water rudder keypress inside of the entire X-Plane's list of possible key commands, so I guess all you need, is to set it in Plane Maker and have a handle in cockpit.
