CL650's Nose Wheel Tiller and SimVimX.

[eduardo]

Hello. I think I need some help here.

I'm currently rebuilding some flight controls for the CL650 that I built in the past on the base of electronics cannibalized from joysticks by moving to SimVimX. So far, everything works well except for the nose wheel tiller. With the joystick-based tiller, I had the axis assigned to Nosewheel tiller and it worked flawlessly. In SimVimX, though, it needs a conversion from Nose_tiller and with DataRefEditor I only found CL650/sidepanel/left/tiller and CL650/sidepanel/left/tiller_value as a possible candidates, but they don't work. In the simulator, they only produce a jerky movement of the tiller and it always wants to return to the center position. I made a video of this behavior in which I move the tiller first to the left and hold there, then to the center and release, then to the right and hold and finally to the center again. You can see the jerky movement and how the tiller returns to center by itself, even though I'm holding at full left and ful right. The external view of the aircraft shows that the nose wheels do the same. Do you have any ideas? Thank you.

I'm not sure these data refs are ever meant to be used for this purpose so there may be nothing we can do; the axis is the correct way to do this. But did you still have something bound to the axis at the time?
